Rapid Service Isolation

Rapid Service Isolation

Details

Rapid Service Isolation is a safe method for cutting a live service, prior to dead insertion, in no-gas conditions.

This new technique developed by Steve Vick International allows an operative to isolate a metallic low pressure service under ā€˜no gasā€™ conditions to enable the service to be safely cut and subsequently dead inserted with a new PE pipe.

Currently, the technique is available for low pressure services (up to 75 mbar) with diameters from Ā¾ā€ to 1Ā¼ā€, but it is envisaged that larger diameters will subsequently be added.
