Above ground hydrant of stainless steel with drop, break-away type

Hawle above ground hydrants are made exclusively of high-grade and non-corroding materials. The choice of materials ensures high functionality and consistently good appearance in all environmental situations (salt spreading, industrial areas, coastal regions).

The "drop jacket technology" protects the upper outlets from unauthorized access. The two individually lockable outlets B can be opened only after the drop jacket is unlocked and drops downward.

The predetermined breaking point ensures that the closed hydrant remains tightly sealed in case of an accident. Spare screws for quick repair are accommodated below the drop jacket. The spare screws shall be tightened at a maximum torque of 60 Nm (use of a torque wrench). According to DVGW VP 325 the hydrant shall be installed such that the predetermined breaking point is situated approx. 120 mm (+ - 80) above ground level.

Moreover, there are some advantages in case of storage, transportation and installation. The materials used have a comparably much lower weight than conventional above ground hydrants of DCI.

For all Hawle above ground hydrants the flow rate at a differential pressure of 1 bar is above the value specified.
