The rigid installation set is a simple version, in which the removable protection tube enables the length of the installation set to be adapted directly on site. The RENKO installation fitting is suitable for connection to gate valves as well as valve tapping clamps.
The RENKO telescopic installation set enables the operating element to be individually adapted to the respective installation depth of valves already installed in the ground. This telescopic installation set is a simple version manufactured in the proven HECKL quality. The assembly of the set is simple and does not require any additional tools. The connection to the valve spindle of the valve to be connected is made by means of a coupling sleeve and clip pin.
These installation fittings of the HECKL PREMIUM series meet the highest requirements and are tested according to DVGW GW336. The sleeve tube is made of extremely resistant high-density polyethylene and reliably protects the internal surface-galvanised steel square bar with an additional sleeve on both the coupling and operator sides from dirt ingress. Even premature corrosion of the coupling sleeves and square caps made of spheroidal graphite cast iron is virtually impossible due to galvanic zinc plating. Possible impact and vibration effects on the valve or its pipelines are dampened by an integrated compensator. This ensures a long service life and reliable handling.
The telescopic installation set of the "PREMIUM" series is a genuine all-purpose weapon for the manual operation of earth-mounted shut-off valves. Thanks to the universally available lower part of the protection tube, the installation set can be used for all commercially available fittings and allows the operators of gas and water pipe networks to use only one connection variant in their maintenance areas. The coupling sleeves and square caps made of spheroidal graphite iron are protected against premature corrosion by galvanisation. The sleeve pipe is made of extremely resistant PE-HD and reliably protects the internal galvanised steel square bar from dirt penetration with an additional sleeve on both the coupling and operator sides. Reliable handling is thus guaranteed even with a long service life. In addition, a built-in compensator dampens possible shock and vibration effects on the valve or its pipelines.
The rigid installation fittings of the HECKL PREMIUM PLUS series are suitable for operating all common gate valves, house connection valves and valve tapping clamps. The internal square rod is completely immune to rust due to the use of stainless steel. Galvanised zinc plating also protects the coupling sleeves and square caps made of nodular graphite cast iron against premature corrosion.
The sleeve pipe is made of extremely resistant high-density polyethylene and reliably protects the internal stainless steel square rod from dirt ingress with an additional sleeve on both the coupling and operator sides. Reliable handling is thus guaranteed even with a long service life. Possible shock and vibration effects on the valve or its pipes are also dampened by a compensator built into the sleeve pipe.
The telescopic design of the HECKL PREMIUM PLUS installation set allows individual adaptation of the operating element to the respective installation depth of valves already installed in the ground. No additional tools are required for simple installation. The use of the telescopic installation set PREMIUM PLUS in connection with all types of HECKL road caps is possible and recommended at any time. This applies when using a HECKL support plate.
The square bar made of stainless steel and the galvanic zinc coating of the coupling sleeves and square protectors made of spheroidal graphite cast iron guarantee absolute protection against corrosion. In addition, sleeves reliably protect the operator and coupling sides of the sleeve tube made of extremely resistant high-density polyethylene from dirt ingress. Reliable handling is thus guaranteed even with a long service life. Possible shock and vibration effects on the valve or its pipes are also dampened by a compensator installed in the sleeve pipe.
HECKL's road caps enable easy access to fittings installed in the ground and their simple operation. This applies to both water and gas pipes or district heating networks. At the same time, the road caps provide reliable protection against dirt and fill. Mechanical damage is therefore virtually impossible.
HECKL road caps are available in various designs. Both rigid and self-levelling. They are therefore suitable for various areas of application. The road caps are suitable for house connections as well as gate valves and hydrants.
The conservative rigid design made of heavy cast metal has proven itself for decades and convinces with a high load capacity as well as a very long service life.
The same applies to the modern rigid plastic road cap. Thanks to its low weight, it is easy to handle during installation. In addition, the housing is absolutely resistant to rust thanks to its material. The dimensional stability when paving in hot asphalt is DVGW-certified.
The KOMPAKTUS® self-levelling road cap is a real innovation for road construction. This enables simple and cost-saving handling during installation or conversion, where only the inner housing has to be pulled out higher and rolled in again. As a hybrid solution (outer housing made of glass fibre polyamide, inner housing made of ductile cast iron), high dimensional stability and a long service life are also guaranteed.
The two-part VARIO support plate, consisting of a main part and an insert, can be connected without tools to almost all common installation fittings. For this purpose, the installation fittings are simply inserted through the opening in the support plate and locked by a 90° turn. The insert ensures that the fitting fits perfectly at all times and that the axes are aligned with the valve or slider cap.
The VARIO support plate is made of polypropylene, which gives the plate its high strength and temperature resistance. This ensures that the cap and installation set are securely held in the ground, even under high weight loads and extreme weather conditions.
Thanks to its low weight, it is easy to handle both during transport and installation.
The one-piece VARIO 15 support plate is a further development of the VARIO support plate. It ensures the perfect fit of all common telescopic installation fittings in the ground. These are connected to the support plate by means of a 90° locking device, which simultaneously ensures exact axis alignment with the valve or slider cap.
The VARIO 15 support plate made of polypropylene is characterised by its high strength and resistance to mechanical damage. Therefore, when installing a road cap, it is not necessary to install an additional support. Caps and installation fittings are protected against slipping in the ground at all times if laid correctly.
Thanks to its low weight, it is easy to handle both during transport and installation.
The hydrant support plate is designed for the installation of all hydrant caps made of cast iron or plastic. The caps can be fixed and fitted directly to the support plate.
The HECKL hydrant support plate is made of polypropylene. This material gives the plate high strength and heat resistance, so that the installation position of the hydrant cap is guaranteed even under high weight loads and extreme weather conditions.
