Continental Product Engineering Ltd has introduced a new style of inlet on its latest meter box assembly. The concept includes fitting PE pipe straight into the regulator via a PE adaptor/ball valve.
A GRP sleeve covers the pipe and a support bracket fitted to the unistrut post secures the inlet, eliminating the inlet flexible hose, making significant savings possible, says Continental.
“Continental has always been at the forefront of innovation when it comes to meter box design,” said Peter Burton, director at Continental. “In today’s uncertain financial times, the need to make savings without compromising on quality is paramount.”
The medium pressure assemblies will also include a one-piece MIV isolation valve fitted to the outlet of the regulator, in line with the requirements of BS6400.
“With the increasing shift towards third stage systems, the new style of box is also available with the Mesura low-pressure regulator,” said Peter. “The components mirror the natural gas industry and provide a cost effective alternative to medium pressure. The Mesura regulator features a manual UPSO push button reset, an important safety feature, as other regulators with an automatic reset allow the possibility of an uncontrolled reconnection of the gas supply.
“Continental strives to give installers and park owners competitively priced and innovative products, and we develop close partnerships with our suppliers and manufacturers and work with them to create solutions for the market. These relationships allow us to provide the complete package of equipment for the mobile home and metered estate markets. If it’s required on park, then Continental can supply quickly and efficiently to site using our own dedicated vehicles or via our next day delivery network.”
