- Pipe Isolation for Repairs: These plugs provide a solid option for isolating parts of a pipeline, effectively stopping the flow of fluids to allow safe and efficient repair operations while not interrupting the entire system.
Limitations of Pillow-Style Pipe Plugs
While Petersen's Pillow-Style Test-Ball® and Muni-Ball® plugs are versatile and reliable, there are several limitations:
- Not Suitable for Leak Location: These plugs are not meant for detecting or locating leaks in pipelines. Their primary job is to prevent or control flow, instead of to identify leaks.
- Not Intended for Vacuum Testing: The plugs are not intended for vacuum testing purposes. They are designed for blocking and pressure testing, not for operating in vacuum conditions.
Safety Precautions
To guarantee safe and successful usage of Petersen's Pillow-Style Test-Ball® and Muni-Ball® plugs, follow the following precautions:
- Always Block Plugs During Air testing: When conducting air testing, it is critical to correctly block the plugs to avoid potential safety hazards. Proper blocking ensures that the plugs remain securely in position and work correctly during pressure tests.
