Insulation SetsKlinger UK is the majordistributor of GPT products,formerly known as PikotekInsulation sets are used to limitcorrosion in pipeline systems.Where dissimilar metals are present,the sets remove the possibility ofthe system acting as a galvanic celland reduce the risk of corrosionof the pipework.Insulation sets are also used toisolate cathodically protected pipingsystems where they prevent theflow of electrostatic charge.Each flange insulation setcomprises all the componentsnecessary to isolate the twomating flanges and the bolts.General Properties> Mating mismatched ring-jointto raised-face flanges (VCS willseal in ring joint, raised-faceand flat face/slip-on flanges)> Withstands corrosiveenvironments including highCO 2 , H 2 S and produced water> Matched bore constructionprotects flange faces frommedia-induced corrosion andflow-induced erosion> Easy installation and removal> Reusable seal retainer> Suitable for all ANSI and APIrated flanges> High strength laminate materialresists failure due to overcompression> Pikotek’s VCFS is the onlyfiresafe insulation set> Provides protection for overvoltage situations to help protectdelicate measurementequipment> Electrically isolate separateunits to prevent the flow ofelectrostatic charge[p8] www.klinger.co.ukBS EN 9100:2009ISO 9001:2008Certificate no: FM 10571KLI008_BrochureAW S19.indd 8 24/05/2013 16:57

Hoses & FittingsKlinger’s PTFE lined hosesCritical to fluid transfer withinpetrochemical, food andpharmaceutical industries,Klinger now offer bespokesteel braided PTFE linedhoses. Capable of withstandingtemperatures up to 230ºC,pressures and vacuums,whilst remaining chemicallyresistant to corrosives andmost aggressive media.Klinger’s PTFE lined hoses offersexcellent performance whilstassuring end users an unparalleledlevel of safety over an increasedservice life. Each hose is custombuilt to your requirements withbore dimensions from ¼” to 6”in diameter, and a range of linedand non lined connection optionsranging from swivel flange, camlock,triclover, NPT and BSPT fittings.Klinger Fluid ControlMagnetic Level GaugesThe Klinger magnetic gauge isdesigned so that the liquid beingmeasured is enclosed within asealed chamber.A stainless steel, titanium or plasticfloat fitted with a permanent Omnidirectionalmagnet moves freelyinside the chamber and actuates themagnetic wafers within the indicator.As the float rises or falls with theliquid level each wafer rotates180° and so presents a contrastingcolour. Those wafers above thefloat show white, whilst those leveland below show red – the indicatorthen presents a clearly definedand accurate level of liquid inthe chamber.Reflex Level GaugesThe Reflex Level gauge, availablein the range ANSI class 150 to1500, is particularly suitable forgas liquefaction plants, reactorvessels, low-pressure boilersand storage vessels.The reflex glass allows light to beabsorbed in the liquid space givinga dark appearance and reflected inthe glass space, thereby providinga clear indication of the liquid level.> Distinct black and silverindication> Pressures up to ANSI class1500 (250 bar)> Temperature range -196°Cto +400°CTransparent Level GaugesThe Transparent Level gauge,available in the range ANSIclass 150 to 1500, is particularlyrecommended for:> Media which is corrosive tothe glass.

AerospaceIn addition to using advancedtechnology manufacturingequipment, our aerospace anddefence team works in close liaisonwith our clients to ensure theirsupply requirements are met tothe highest standards achievable.Our high precision water-jetprofile cutting facility producesboth non-metallic and metalliccomponents. Software controlledwater-jet tilting jet technologyallows the production of taperfree components.The cutting kerf angle normallyfound with water-jet profiling ismoved completely into the scrapzone, producing 90 degree cutedges. Water-jet cutting doesnot produce heat affected zonesor structural material changes inthe cut edge and is distortion free.Our Knife cutting facility featuresa robust CNC machine, utilisingdrag or oscillating knife cuttingtechniques combined withautomatic hole punching, forhigh accuracy conversion ofgaskets from sheet material.Flexible vacuum control and opticalprojection of cutting plans createthe highest quality products.Our optical measuring machine isa non-contact, measuring deviceutilising video camera technology.Non-contact measuring methodsprovide control of measure pointsand avoid the distortion of surfacescaused by contact, retainingintegrity and eliminating subjectivity.Klinger utilises the equipmentto provide first article productinformation that is used toperfect the production process.ProJECTs and InternationalThe projects and international teamhas a focused way of conductingbusiness with E & C customers bybringing together a group of peopledealing only with the contractingindustry on a worldwide basis.Our UK based project personnelare very experienced in supplyingsealing materials for majorcontracts, having been involvedwith many new build contractsfor onshore plants ranging fromgrassroot refineries, onshore gasplants, various chemical plantsand pharmaceutical installations,for offshore, both concrete andsteel jackets/platforms, subseainstallations and FPSO’s.Klinger project controls and supportsall aspects of the project from theinitial bidding through to finalproject handover. This has beendone by bringing together differentdisciplines to assist in each stageof the project.The success of Klinger projects isbuilt on a sound technical knowledgeand the ability to offer a bespokeservice that can only be achievedwith the backing of a state of theart manufacturing facility. This isdemonstrated by the successfulsupply of sealing materials tomajor contractors involved innew build projects.[p14] www.klinger.co.ukKLI008_BrochureAW S19.indd 14 24/05/2013 16:58
