The GSTT Information Number 20-1 “Rehabilitation of pressurised pipelines” shall constitute a neutral information sheet for building contractors, operators, planning companies as well as industry newcomers such as young engineers. Since April 2020, it is also available in English. The document also demonstrates the effective and successful cooperation of Rohrleitungsbauverband e.V. and GSTT e.V. for the benefit of all players in pipe construction.
The document
- provides an overview of different pipe materials and types of damage
- shows different methods for the renovation
- specifically references now also “lining with inserted hoses” as referenced in ISO 11295;
- provides a selection matrix to identify the most suitable solution for a renovation project
- concludes with quality assurance methods and pressure testing
Primus Line represented by Robert Goletz was part in creating this state-of-the-art document with GSTT and Rohrleitungsbauverband.
On our own account: The Primus Line® system – a fully documented solution for pressure pipe renovation
The Primus Line® system has been in use for the rehabilitation of pressure pipes for almost 20 years. Primus Line provides transparent information on the design, installation and operation of the Primus Line® system. In addition to the Technical Support Document referencing the design consideration and the Installation Manual detailing the individual installation steps, Primus Line has now also released a comprehensive Operations Manual. The Operations Manual is intended for network operators and references how the installed system can be pressure-tested and disinfected in case of drinking water pipes. In addition, it references how the pipe is put into service and how maintenance can be performed. Furthermore, the document references how the Primus Line® system can be repaired and future services can be integrated. The document is specifically intended for network operators. To learn more, please get in contact with your Primus Line representative.
