Step 3: Fixation of the tension strap to the pipe
One tension strap is fixed to the pipe using 2 opposite tension strap clamps. The second tension strap is mounted later.
Select the installation instruction of the supplied clasp:
Band clamp clasp
• Insert the tension strap into 2 tension strap clamps (see Fig. 6.12).
• Position the clasp and the tension strap clamps on the pipe (see Fig. 6.11). On a horizontal pipe, mount the tension strap
clamps laterally to the pipe, if possible.
• Place the tension strap around the pipe and insert it into the clasp, see Fig. 6.14.
• Make sure that both tension strap clamps are as exactly as possible opposite each other. To do this, check whether the
distance between the tension strap clamps is half the pipe circumference.
• Tighten the tension strap.
• Tighten the clasp screw.
Quick release clasp
• Insert the tension strap into its clamps and the metal spring (see Fig. 6.12 and Fig. 6.13).
• Position the clasp, the tension strap clamps and the metal spring on the pipe (see Fig. 6.11):
– On a horizontal pipe, mount the tension strap clamps laterally to the pipe, if possible.
– Mount the metal spring opposite the clasp.
• Make sure that both tension strap clamps are as exactly as possible opposite each other. To do this, check whether the
distance between the tension strap clamps is half the pipe circumference.
