Product line extension offers greater flexibility and options for large scale projects

Aalberts integrated piping systems (IPS), a global leader in advanced integrated piping systems for the distribution and control of liquids and gasses, announces the launch of "Apollo" PowerPress® options in large diameter (LD), an extension of its renowned "Apollo"® PowerPress® product line. This new offering, available in large diameters of 2 1/2", 3", and 4", represents a significant advancement in piping technology, catering to broader applications and offering enhanced flexibility for large-scale projects.

Key features of the "Apollo"® PowerPress® LD make it especially well-suited for the industrial market, including robust HNBR or EPDM sealing elements with zinc-nickel coatings for exceptional corrosion resistance and sealing reliability. HNBR sealing elements are ideal for industrial applications such as process piping, LP/natural gas and fuel oil delivery, industrial gas distribution, heating fuel oil, engine oil, and hydraulic fluid lines. EPDM sealing elements provide reliable performance in industrial hydronic heating and cooling, low-pressure steam, industrial gas systems, fire protection lines, and process or utility water systems, enabling safe and efficient operation across a wide range of industrial piping installations.

The system incorporates the innovative Leak Before Press® technology, preventing unpressed connections from holding pressure and thus enhancing installation integrity and safety. For smaller "Apollo"® PowerPress® sizes (1/2" to 2"), a color-coded Visual Control Ring (VCR) is featured, with tabs that break away to provide quick visual identification of completed connections. A standout feature of the "Apollo"® PowerPress® LD (2-1/2" to 4") is the color-coded Visu-Control® foil, which splits for easy removal after press completion. This ensures that unpressed connections are easily identifiable prior to system pressurization, further improving quality control and reducing inspection time.

The "Apollo"® PowerPress® LD system is compatible with Ridgid® and Milwaukee Press Tools, increasing installer convenience and allowing for faster installations with commonly used tools. Its full-port flow design maximizes flow rates, enhancing system efficiency and performance in fluid management. Aalberts IPS continues to support its products with comprehensive field service, ensuring successful implementation from pre-construction training to post-installation support. This commitment to customer success has been a key factor in the widespread adoption of "Apollo"® PowerPress® technology.
