Originally developed in 2013, Pipetech, worked in conjunction with SGN and the NIA, to create an intrinsically safe gas-eco pump, to prevent the gas from mains abandonment activities from being vented into the atmosphere. Pipetech and SGN have collaborated on multiple occasions under the NIA scheme, due to their shared desire to improve operator safety, create innovative tooling, improve efficiencies and develop equipment to improve the environmental impact of various operations in the gas industry.
The GECO MK1 pump was very successful but it was heavy, cumbersome to transport and took up a lot of space.
INTRODUCING GECO MK2.
2.5x Smaller. 3x Lighter*.
Almost 3 times lighter and 2.5 times smaller than the original, the MK2 is housed in a briefcase-sized plastic case, ready to fulfil the updated design brief:
Simply put, this is a device that should be on every gas engineer’s van in the country. It is expected that the GECO MK2 will be essential in day-to-day activities on the network. With the additional design benefits of a speed controller, stroke counter and moisture trap on the air inlet, the MK2 is a product evolution which enhances performance without compromising on functionality.
Pipetech is also developing and testing ancillary products, which, when used in conjunction with the GECO MK2, further extend the gas-saving potential on other operations where venting of gas has become routine.
“To create a product which becomes an essential part of gas maintenance and repair operations, helping delivery networks on their journey to net-zero 2050”
