JACOB (UK) Modular Pipework
06 April 2016
JACOB is the modern solution for custom designed and built modular pipework with easily connected bends, segments and pipe sections, manufactured in 1-3mm thicknesses, all with pressure tight connections.
Each component has a machine-lipped end which, when fitted with a specially designed “U” shaped gasket and Quick-Connect pull-ring, creates a 3-bar overpressure certified connection.
Vacuum efficiency is maintained in the JACOB modular pipework system by using conductive U-shaped seals manufactured from Keltan (EPDM) at all the connection points. This has the advantage of providing excellent conductivity for powder materials whilst giving the added benefit of being ATEX compliant for 3D equipment in Zone 22, for use in hazardous areas.
Air movement within a JACOB pipeline is enhanced with the smooth-pressed bends,which assist airflow with the minimum of resistance. Accessories include inspection doors, visualisation ducts, diverters, product-control and air-control valves, all manufactured to high tolerances.
With pipework diameters from 60mm to 800mm and a comprehensive range of forks, bends, T pieces, valves and distributors, JACOB modular pipework is ideal for creating an efficient and flexible air handling or extraction system, one which can adapt to changing requirements.
JACOB (UK) has over forty years experience of designing and supplying modular pipework systems for the engineering industry. JACOB manufacture thin-walled, modular pipework systems and ducting, with components for air-conveying, extract-lines or gravity chutes. With standard diameters from 60mm to 1600mm in galvanised or stainless-steel and powder coated finishes, JACOB cater for all types of pipework installation.
