Double shut-off and purge valve system, to ease test
pressure adjustment.
Combined ball head and monoblock aluminium shut-off
valve system reducing risk of leaks in the system.
Distortion proof wear resistant polyamide piston.
Knock resistant weather and cold proof galvanised steel
tank protected with Duramant ® epoxy coating.
Pressure gauges with readily available calibration

stainless steel, galvanised steel, aluminium, copper…,
plastic materials: PP, PE, PB, PVC, PE-X…, as well as
composite materials such as Multi-layer. All these types
of pipes can be joined as a function of the material and
the nature of the joint by means of welding, threads,
mechanical joints with bushings, using adhesives …
No matter the nature of the joint, the type of material
and the fluid to be carried, any installation must be liquid-
tight, tests being required.
Testing pump RP50-S is a precision tool for testing
installation tightness using water or oil as testing liquid, a
maximum testing pressure of 60 bar being possible.
