Primus Line RehabPressure Pipes Trenchless Rehabilitation

SHARE

The Primus Line® Rehab system is a proven and environmentally orientated technology for rehabilitating ageing pipelines. It is suitable for transporting various media such as water, gas and oil and is approved for drinking water in Germany, Austria and Switzerland as well as many other countries. The ideal flow characteristics due to a smooth inner coating and the optimised systems for diverse pressure ratings make Primus Line® Rehab a technically and economically optimal solution (depending on the individual case) with a lifetime of more than 50 years. In this way, network operators benefit from reliable operation and a sustainable investment in their pipeline network. Flexible solution for the trenchless rehabilitation of pressure pipelines in the water, gas and oil sectors.

  • We also pay attention to sustainability as a company
     
     

Primus Line® is installed trenchlessly. This means: No more excavation pits with a length of several hundred metres of even several kilometres.

Two pits or existing shafts are sufficient for rehabilitating pressure pipelines. To complete the installation, just a few steps are necessary:

Preparation

  • Creating the access
  • Decommissioning the pipeline
  • Inspecting the host pipe
  • Cleaning the host pipe

Installation

  • Inserting the liner
  • Mounting the connectors
  • Pressure test

Reintegrating the rehabilitated pipeline

  • Installing a fitting piece
  • Comprehensive documentation
