100's of Hawle System 2000 Fittings installed in Southampton!
This month, we wanted to highlight a recent supply and install project we had the pleasure of being involved with down in Southampton. What began as a fairly standard Under-Pressure Tee enquiry quickly ramped up into a major project, in which over 💯 Hawle Austria Group System 2000 End-Restraint Fittings were supplied by R2M and installed by our partners over at PSL Pipelines and Bill Veitch 💪
⬇️ Read the full article below to find out how the project went and what makes the System 2000 such a unique product when it comes to End-Restraint Fittings for PE, PVC & Molecor MoPVC.
Case Study: Southampton Project
The customer initially contacted R2M’s Southern Region Account Manager Dan Carnera regarding a Under-Pressure Tee installation in February of this year, with a site survey and measurement quickly taking place and completed by Bill Veitch of PSL Pipelines. This ultimately resulted in 3 x 24" UPT’s being supplied, installed and fully tested, with all work completed to a more than satisfactory level 😁 However, the story doesn’t end there!
🗣️ Discussions continued both on-site and in the office between R2M, PSL Pipelines and the customer. The main talking points with the project surrounded the fabrication of special PE road pipes and the design of the overall layout of the network. The customer asked for support from R2M on the choice of the fittings, pipe material and how the installation could be completed in the most efficient way.
Thankfully for the customer, R2M are a member of the Hawle Austria Group , so we have access to the best End-Restraint Fitting that is dedicated for PE, PVC and Molecor MoPVC Pipes available on the market – the Hawle System 2000 🙌
What makes the System 2000 so special?
The Hawle Austria Group End-Restraint Fitting has a unique grip ring design, specifically developed to ensure the pressure is evenly distributed on the pipe to guarantee a permanent restraint connection at 16bar rating 💫 The quality of the System 2000 is also second-to-none, with each fitting coming with a 100-Year Design Life and a 10-Year Quality Guarantee as standard! Additionally, the System 2000 is:
✅ For this project, the System 2000 was the perfect fitting for the special PE road pipes used throughout the network.
How the next stages and installation went...
The design phase of this project is where the knowledge and expertise of our partners at PSL Pipelines and Bill Veitch in particular really came into play. Alongside the technical support of R2M, Bill and the customer successful designed the network that would meet their requirements. Once this was finalised, the next stages of the project took place across April and May, with work commencing around 4 weeks after the designs were finalised. During this period, all fabrication work and products to be supplied were delivered from Accrington to site ahead of the date installation was due to begin 🚚
Bill and PSL Pipelines had previous experience working with the System 2000, but not with the shear number of fittings the customer required for this project. Despite this, all installation work was completed by PSL Pipelines within 2 weeks and the target date set by the customer was met - with no problems or issues reported upon final testing 🏆
☑️ The initial feedback from the customer has been extremely positive. Given the volume of pipes and fittings installed during the 2-week window, it was always going to be a challenge to have everything completed. However, given the simple installation process a System 2000 has, the team over at PSL Pipelines had little to no issues and found the fitting to be excellent to work with as always!
Across R2M's involvement so far, we have supplied:
