New life for pressure pipelines

Today pipeline networks pervade the entire world. Pressure pipelines play a major role in this.

Even modern pressure lines cannot avoid one fact: They age and wear.

Primus Line® as a trenchless system for rehabilitation offers innovative solutions for various media in a multitude of industries and applications.

Water is a scarce, valuable commodity that demands careful handling. One important aspect of this are intact water line networks that ensure lossless transport.

Prerequisite for this is maintenance measures which among others include the rehabilitation of pressure pipelines. Primus Line® is a sustainable alternative to the open trench construction method that usually is more time-consuming and involves higher construction costs in comparison. With the system for trenchless rehabilitation, these works become almost unnecessary: Small construction pits or chambers suffice for feeding the liner into the existing pressure pipeline and installation of the connectors. Due to its composition, the liner is statically independent of an existing pipe and thus is deployable in all common pipe materials. The inner layer of the W-Liner is ideally matched to the medium water and makes for optimal flow-through characteristics. In particular, for the transport of potable water high requirements apply to the material used. Primus Line® is certified for use with potable water in 21 countries.

Primus Line® is especially suited for the following conditions

Type of pipeline

  • Drinking water pipelines

  • Production water pipelines

  • Sewage pipelines

  • Industrial water pipelines (Verification by our engineers required)

  • Seawater pipelines

  • Brine pipelines

  • Chlorine water pipelines

Pipe material

The Primus Line W-Liner is usable independently from the host pipe material, for example with the following materials that are often used in the water sector.

  • Asbestos cement

  • Cast iron

  • Glassfibre reinforced plastic (GRP)

  • Grey cast iron

  • Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)

  • Polyethylene (PE)

  • Steel

Location of the pipeline

  • Transport pipelines

  • Culverts

  • Crossing pipelines

  • Bridge pipelines

  • Inner-city supply pipelines
