Step
Activity
1
Check the connection pipework
a)
Ensure that all pipes of the connecting pipework are secured in a stable and form-fitting
manner.
There must be no change in position and angle between the connection points and the
T-Rack
®
s during operation.
b)
Check all specified connection dimensions for pipe distances, length offsets and angular
offsets.
If the specified connection dimensions are not met, stop the mounting procedure of the
T-Rack
®
and adjust the connecting pipework.
Mounting may continue after the specified connection dimension tolerances have been met.
a)
Remove the gaskets of the flexible composite
couplings 6”.
b)
Lubricate the gaskets with glycerin on the inside and outside.
3
Mount the gasket on the pipe end
a)
Remove the protective caps from the T-Rack
®
connection and connecting pipework.
b)
Mount one of the lubricated gaskets over the opening of the T-Rack
®
connection.
c)
Push the gasket onto the T-Rack
®
until it is flush with the end of the pipe.
4
Align both connections with each other
Number of persons: 2
Position
the two connections (T-Rack
®
connection and connection pipe) with respect to each other.
5
Connect the two connections
a)
Pull the gasket over the connection pipe so it is centered between the grooves of both
connections.
b)
Place a flexible coupling 6” half-shell around the gasket.
Ensure that the contact surfaces of the coupling half-shells are resting in the provided grooves.
c)
Place the second flexible coupling 6” half-shell on the first and insert the bolts in the openings.
d)
Tighten the flexib
le coupling 6” with two nuts M12 and washers using an open-end or box
wrench (size 19) until the contact surfaces of both coupling halves are flush and resting against
each other without a gap.
Ensure that the nuts are tightened evenly and alternately.
Ensure that the square screw neck of each screw is correctly positioned in each threaded hole.
