| Let's face it. Line length on new turbines and compounds
are a lot shorter than those old clunkers. Until now, utilities have
had to add strainers and spools to make up the difference. More often
than not, even this didn't solve the connection problem, forcing installers
to resort to makeshift solutions.
Fortunately, that's past history now. Our new adjustable Test Spool
Assembly solves installation problems in half the time, without
stress or strain at the connection. But that's not all. A built-in
bronze pipe and valve make meter testing as easy as "1-2-3"
Installed downstream of the new turbine or compound meter, this
new Test Spool Assembly is easily customized to the exact length
you need, simply by cutting off any excess length, or ordering custom
lengths from MARS. Connect the permanent flanged end, then slide
the adjustable UNI-DAP Universal Flanged Adapter fits any sized
pipe from PVC through pit cast iron without changing gaskets. The
built-in rubber sealing ring gives you a watertight connection.
The Test Spool Assembly and meter can be removed just as easily.
Want to test the meter? Simply unscrew the 2" tap plug on
the bronze pipe extending into the pit and connect a test assembly,
like the field portable MUN-3 Utility Service Analyzer, also from
MARS.
The MARS Test Spool Assembly is fusion nylon coated at 450°F for
years of corrosion-resistant service. Sizes 2" to 6" feature
a single bronze outlet pipe and valve from the top of the assembly
to the pit; 8", 10", and 12" models feature dual
outlet pipes and valves located on each side ot the assembly, with
elbow fittings leading upward.
