It allows sealing SF6 gas leaks under pressure and under tension located on the flange. Its unique double shell concept enables to inject the resin without any risk of pipe intrusion. It also protects the bolts and shunts surroundings in the optic of any eventual removal. It is the unique solution for your SF6 leaks located on the flanges and avoids consignation which is usually costly and not recommended.
REFLANGEKiTis certified by the EPRI in USA, EDF in France, it has been successfully installed in National Grid (UK). Moreover it is contributing to save the environment while limiting the gas emission to avoid greenhouse effect (Kyoto protocol)
IMPLEMENTATION :
