Advantages of the NAVAL Hot tapping toolAll valves are full bore (only DN 150 + 200 red.)Connecting new consumers to fully pressurized pipelinesNo emptying of the net needed – saves time and energyNo supply interruption of other costumersPossible use of the valve for shut-off purposes(also available with hand lever and long stem) Hot tapping is easy and safe
New! With open/close-end stops
Drilling procedure
• Remove the main pipe insulation• Weld the ball valve onto the main line pipe• Mount the hot tapping tool on the valve• Carry out the drilling• Close the ball valve• Remove the Hot tapping tool• Connect the new supply line
Safety labelings and recommendations:AGFW set of rules worksheet FW 432: "Operational minimum requirements for pipe branching in district heating bymeans of Hot tapping procedure" “Suitable protective gloves, glasses and clothing are to be used in order to avoid injuries. Ensure that the device is in a safe condition. Faulty partshave to be replaced!

The Hot tapping tool is type tested since March 1999 underBauteil-Kenn-Nr. AR.303-14 of the TÜV Hamburg, Germany.
The field of application is restricted toTemperature up to 200°C and Pressure of 25 bar.
It is only applicable to NAVAL-Ball valves, which are fully-welded steel ball valves.DN 20 – 125 full bore + DN 150 red. bore with adapter threadDN 150 full bore + DN 200 red. bore with adapter flange

Features of the ball valve with adapter thread :• Full bore up to DN 125 (DN 150 red.) • Actuation by hexagon socket• Steel cap weldable with stem housing• End stops 90° (no 360º rotation) • Clear visibility of the ball-position

The weldend opposite of the threaded weldend has to be machined before welding. Theprofile has to match the main pipe it will be welded on.
Attention! The ball valve has to be open during welding! Modification of the threaded welding end is not allowed before the hot tapping isfinished!

Welding of the ball valveThe hot tapping valve can be welded onto the main pipe in a radial angle of 0-360 degrees.
The angle to the pipe centre line must be exactly 90 degrees. The hot tapping Must not be carried out on the weld seam.

The welding onto the mainpipe has to fulfill the applicable strength requirements.If required, the connection can be strengthened with a connection ring.
Welding material must not reach the inner of the valve to prevent the hole sawfrom getting stuck.
The tightness of the welded seam can be tested by mounting the hot tapping toolon the valve and applying pressure through the flush valve.
Attention:After welding the ball valve you have to test its functioning by opening and closing the valve!

Standard circular hole saws are used with diameters between 24 - 146 mm(18 mm HSS-Drill DIN1897 = DN 20). Structure of the Hot tapping tool with threaded adapter
The total space requirement for hot tapping is a result of the valve length (L) + 800 (DN20=850) mm (tool plus stem upstroke).

Assembly of the Hot tapping tool
Choose the DN-specific adapter and hole saw.
Screw the adapter on the tool. Please ensure that theO-ring is undamaged.
Fix the hole saw on the thread of the drill-arbor (DN 25) or the arbor-combination (DN 32 to DN 200) and fasten the arbor on the tool stem with a hexagonscrew.

BEFORE BORING
Insert the 6,5 mm center drill into the arbor, so that the protrusion (measure B) is 20 mm. Thew protrusion must not exceed 20 mm.
Screw out Part 1 (see tool drawing) to the marking in the thread.
Do not screw any further! The thread has a tolerance of only 10 mm.

Adjusting the hot tapping tool
Attention: Ensure that the Adapter O-ring is not damaged. Richly apply grease to the Adapter & O-Ring and thread & weldingends of the ball valve.
Screw the adapter with the help of the hook key on the thread of the completely opened ball valve until the adapter O-ring closes tightly against valve weldend.A rather high torque will be needed to overcome the resistance of the O-ring.
After that
• Test the tighness of the valve/pipeline welding seam and the mounted hot tapping equipment byapplying pressure through the flush valve.
• Release the snapping-unit by pulling it backwards and draw back the stem to its outmost position.
• Move the stem into right position: Separate 1-level stem = DN 20Standard stem, level 1 = DN 25 - DN 32Standard stem, level 2 = DN 40 - DN 50Standard stem, level 3 = DN 65 - DN 150RB
Separate 1-level stem = DN 150FB - DN 200RB
• Slowly lower the stem towards the main pipe by rotating the feeding-unit (Part 1) clockwise until thecenter drill meets the main pipe. After this, rotate one round backwards.

Open the flush valve and ensure that the hose end is located far away enough, so that the hot flushing water with drillingsplinters will not cause any danger!
Attention! The main line has to be at least one dimension bigger than the dimension of the hot tapping valve.When drilling valves DN20-40 into a mainpipe that is only one dimension bigger, the hot tapping procedure has to be interrupted immediately after penetrating the main pipe wall.
The centerdrill protrusion over the hole saw must not exceed 20 mm(see table)!

Procedure
Turn on the drilling machine and drill the center hole by slowly and evenly rotating Part 1 (feedingunit) clockwise. After protruding the main pipe, water will start running through the flush valve.Now close the flush valve and turn off the drilling machine!Adjust the drilling machine according to the DN-specific values given in the value table (drilling-speed will be reduced)Open the flushing valve again to remove metal splinters created during the drilling!Now turn on the drilling machine and proceed with the main drilling by slowly and evenly rotatingPart 1.

After drilling
Close the flush valve after sawing out the slice of the pipe!Lift off the drilling machine and gear. Open the snapping unit by pulling and draw backthe drilling stem.
Close the hot tapping valve and open the flush valve to release pressure from the tool.
Remove the hot tapping tool and take off the metal piece from the center drill.
