Installation Procedure For LYCOFIT
®
Repair Fittings
1. Lubricate
LHP-200
shafts with
non
synthetic lubricant (e.g. 3in1 oil)
ONLY
.
2.
DO NOT
apply lubricants to the fittings, spigots or sleeves.
3. When installing a fitting to repair a pressurized pipe, insure that the area of repair is isolated
from the pressure supply before cutting the PE pipe.
4.
The
LHP-200
is intended for installing
LYCOFIT
®
fittings only.
5.
LYCOFIT
®
fittings are designed to be installed only on O.D. controlled Polyethylene (PE) pipe
made per ASTM D2513 & ASTM F2619. Examine the pipe print line and fitting labels and install
fittings only to pipe with the correct size designation and wall thickness/DR.
6. If the installation is for use in Natural Gas pipe lines, pressure test each assembled joint in com-
pliance with minimum requirements as specified in
D.O.T. CFR Title 49 Part 192, Sub Part J.
7. The
LHP-200
requires a hydraulic source to operate. The AHP100 (ENERPAC
™
P142) is
available through Lyall as a hand pump source for operating the
LHP-200
. Other hydraulic pow-
er sources (e.g. ENERPAC PA-133) with an output greater than 5500 psig may be used. The
pump source should be limited to an output of 6500 psig to restrict the stress applied to the tool
during installation of the fitting. (ENERPAC pump adjustment instructions are available by re-
quest from your customer service representative.)
