Adapter BI DN500 + VPC 565 connector for connecting pipes with non-circular outer geometry BIA500565_0000

Adapter for non-circular pipes – shrinkage-free connection

This adapter, consisting of an internal stainless steel sleeve, an EPDM sealing cuff, and a stainless steel expansion wedge, is designed to connect pipes with irregular shapes. Its construction ensures quick and easy installation, and the use of a VPC® flexible coupling expands the range of possible applications. The adapter is compatible with various pipe materials, making it a universal solution for installers and end-users.

Design and operation

The adapter's operation is based on precise fit and a tight connection. After being inserted into the pipe, the stainless steel sleeve, secured with an EPDM cuff, expands under the influence of the expansion wedge. This causes the sleeve to press against the inner wall of the pipe, and the annular sealing ribs guarantee a complete seal. The next step is to attach a VPC® flexible coupling to the other end of the adapter. The outer diameter of the connected pipe must be matched to the range of diameters supported by the selected VPC® coupling.

Advantages and applications

• Versatility: The adapter is suitable for all commonly used pipe materials – from concrete to plastics.
• Quick installation: The simple construction and intuitive operation allow for fast and efficient pipe connection.
• Tightness: The combination of a stainless steel sleeve, an EPDM cuff, and an expansion wedge ensures reliable sealing.
• Flexibility: The use of a VPC® flexible coupling allows for compensation of small displacements and stresses in the installation.
• Patented solution: The product is based on patented technology, guaranteeing high quality and reliability.
• Connecting different types of pipes: Ideal for connecting concrete pipes with plastic pipes or other types of pipes with non-circular geometry.
• Availability of VPC couplings: Compatible with a wide range of VPC® flexible couplings, allowing you to tailor the solution to specific installation needs.

The BI DN500 adapter + VPC 565 coupling is particularly recommended in situations where standard connection methods are insufficient or when high connection flexibility is required. It finds application in residential, industrial construction, and water and sewage infrastructure.
