Installation methods for TESACO flap valves

Whether it is a classic concrete wall, a round prefabricated manhole, a pipeline, or a sloped embankment structure: Our modular system offers the suitable, low-maintenance installation solution for every structural situation according to DIN 19569-4.

Installation methods according to structural situation

1. Installation on a flat wall

The standard case for flat concrete structures such as wastewater treatment plants, pumping stations, or discharge structures.

  • Anchor version (Standard): The flap valve is anchored directly onto the flat concrete wall using anchor rods, mortar cartridges, and permanently elastic sealant.
  • Availability: The most popular option for both stainless steel flap valves (G10) and flex flap valves (G11).

2. Installation on a round wall / in a round manhole

The tailor-made solution for modern prefabricated manholes and circular structures.

  • Anchor version with manhole adapter E15-005: Since manhole walls are curved, we use the special TESACO E15-005 manhole adapter. This perfectly compensates for the curvature so that the valve rests absolutely flat and closes securely.
  • Options (for G10): Available as a standard manhole adapter or in a time-saving collar design (sealing is done purely via sealant without the need for grouting).
  • Availability: For valves from DN150 to DN500, suitable for manhole diameters DN1000 to DN2000, in our fast 1-week stock program.

3. Installation on an embankment section

Specially optimized for water discharges and flood protection systems with sloped walls.

  • Particularly interesting for: Flex flap valves (G11), as the EPDM cover seals extremely reliably even at difficult angles. Perfectly suited for typical embankment slopes of 2:3 or 1:1.5.
  • Anchor version (Model G11-002): The valve is anchored directly onto the face of the sloped embankment structure.
  • Insert version (Model G11-003): The valve is inserted directly into the pipe ending at the slope (spigot end).

4. Flange version & insert version (Direct pipe connection)

When there is no concrete structure, but a direct connection to the pipeline is required.

  • Flange version: Acts as a sturdy adapter for connecting to existing pipelines or flanges (PN10, PN16, or special hole patterns). Bolts and gaskets are provided by the client. (Available for G10 and G11).
  • Insert version (spigot end): The valve is simply inserted directly into the smooth pipe end. An extremely fast and uncomplicated installation variant for pipelines. (Available for G10 and G11).
