PE Electrofusion Systems for Gas and Water Applications
IPEX electrofusion technology and HDPE safety couplings feature a unique, exposed coil design that provides a
seal stronger than any other electrofusion system on the market. It is the preferred choice for the
gas and water market for their quality, durability, economy and ease of use.
The strongest, most reliable leak-proof seal in the industry
Friatec is engineered smarter than traditional fusion systems. Manufactured in the USA, Friatec couplings feature a unique,
exposed coil design that provides a seal stronger than any other electrofusion system on the market. This is achieved for two reasons:
-
The heat, created by the electrical current passing through the exposed coil of the Friatec coupling, is transferred directly to the PE pipe.
- The coil protrudes from the interior surface of the coupling. When the pipe is heated, the coil sinks into it creating a much stronger bond.
As a result of this process, every joint will be sealed precisely to specification, automatically, every time,
minimizing the risk of human error. This unparalleled sealing technology has earned Friatec couplings the highest
pressure rating in the industry. What’s more, because every joint is as strong as the pipe itself, the Friatec Electrofusion system
is ideal for horizontal direct drilling and other trenchless applications.
Industry-leading trackability
With the industry’s most advanced barcode monitoring, recording and tracking technology,
Friatec makes managing your infrastructure easier than ever before. Imagine, no more hidden costs or surprises
on future dig ups. Instead, you’ll know when, where and
how every coupling in your system was installed, and by whom.
All these benefits add up to deliver substantial time and cost savings on every project.
Faster, easier installation
Thanks to Friatec’s portable "FRIAMAT® II" universal electrofusion processor, installation is quick and easy.
It can be performed right in the trench, even where space is extremely limited. For trackability, the barcode label of
each coupling is also scanned with FRIAMAT® II’s reader wand . FRIAMAT® II automatically determines the best electrical
current and fusing time required. And most importantly, the FRIAMAT® II is more:
-
Reliable: because it uses electricity to distribute heat uniformly around the coupling for a more uniformly sealed joint.
- Repeatable: as it automatically adjusts processing parameters for each coupling by accounting
for the job-site conditions, such as ambient temperature, eliminating human error and ensuring
that the seal is precisely to specification, every time!
- Verifiable: because it generates a fusion report for each fitting, empowering contractors with instant
verification of seal integrity and comprehensive documentation for archiving.
- Trackable: as it allows you to retrieve fusion records and allows you to enter your GPS location.
