Read MoreEasily Moved from System to System
The PurgeGate® System is designed to fit onto systems by HFT®, such as PurgElite® Inflatable Pipe Purging Systems, as well as any other similar devices to prevent the dams bursting due to over inflation.
Inflatable Tube, Pipe and Pipeline Weld Purging Systems are at risk of overinflating during the weld purging process due to unwanted manipulation of gas pressure and flow settings.
PurgeGate® Valves will prevent unwanted and undesirable changes from causing weld failure due to lost purge as a result of dam burst.
These fit all system sizes and can be moved from system to system as the weld size is changed.
The PurgeGate® is fitted as standard onto the range of QuickPurge® and HotPurge® Pipe Purging Systems and can be purchased as an accessory for PurgElite® Tube and Pipe Weld Purging Systems.
