High density (linear), injection molded virgin polyethylene casing
isolators/spacers provide positive insulation, high abrasion resistance and low
coefficient of friction for a wide variety of double containment carrier/casing
pipe applications. They are extremely light in weight and easy to handle during
installation.
A ribbed inner surface prevents slippage and guards against carrier pipe coating
damage while the outer surface may include any one of several molded runners to
accommodate 2" (50.8mm) x 4" (101.6mm) or larger carrier/casing differentials.
One piece solid molded segments provide for maximum load bearing. Hardware
includes cadmium plated steel studs, nuts and washers. A screwdriver is the only
tool needed for installation.
Model PE Casing Isolators are designed primarily for smaller diameter steel or polyethylene carrier pipes (ANSI O.D. pipe without a bell or mechanical joint). We do not recommend that they be used on any carrier pipe over 24" in diameter or for installations over 300 feet long without consulting with PSI. PE Isolators should not be used on concrete carrier pipe.

Typical Installation
Based on 20-feet (6.0-meters) carrier pipe segments in a casing of not more than
300-feet (91.5-meters) . Consult PSI for longer casings and for concrete pipe.
Recommended Maximum Spacing
All Model PE Isolator/Spacers should not
exceed 5-feet (1.5-meters) to 8-feet (2.4-meters) center-to-center. An
isolator/spacer should be placed within 2-feet (0.6-meters) on each side of a
coupling or joint and within 1-foot (0.3-meters) of each end of the casing.

Casing isolators/spacers shall be PSI Model PE molded from high density
polyethylene plastic in two segments for applications on carrier pipe diameters
of 12" and under. Model PE isolator/spacers will be provided in multiple
segments for applications on carrier pipe diameters of over 12". Each spacer
segment shall be a solid, non-welded molded piece designed for accommodating a
specific size carrier pipe O.D.
Each casing spacer shall be manufactured at a facility that has a Registered ISO
9001:2000 Quality Management System. A copy of the current ISO 9001:2000
registration shall be provided with material submittal.

manufacturer: Pipeline Seal and Insulator, Inc.
End Seal Specification
After insertion of the carrier pipe in the
casing, the ends of the casing shall be closed by installing a PSI Model "C",
Model "S" or Model "FW" casing end seal as manufactured by Pipeline Seal and
Insulator, Inc., Houston, TX.
Link-Seal® End Seal Specification
(Carrier Pipe Must Be Centered Within Casing)
After insertion of the carrier
pipe in the casing, the ends of the casing shall be closed by installing the
Link-Seal® end seals and a 1/8" thick synthetic rubber end seal equal to the PSI
Model "C" end seal. Both as manufactured by Pipeline Seal and Insulator, Inc.,
Houston, TX.
