The mini drum is a lightweight high-grade stainless steel construction for broader application in poorly accessible locations, such as the relining of downpipes from a roof or basement, or short house drains.

The 13 m repair lengths for the DrainPlus liner (3 mm) cover many of the typical short pipe runs with the mini drum weight being as low as 26.8 kg when empty. A new wheel holding system makes transport easier, while the typical epros ergonomic shapes have been maintained as well as the window for easy and safe drum loading operations together with hot water connections.

Line up to DN 500

Many customers knew the advantages of inversion drums for liners up to DN 300, but expensive inversion rigs were necessary for larger liner sizes. This problem has been resolved by larger inversion drum versions.

Previous problems with lining larger diameters included the shaft and the bearings needing a higher stability to cope with the weight of the impregnated liner and the pulling force applied during the inversion process, as well as the force required for winding up the liner in the inversion drum. The solution is a speed controlled shaft for winding up and controlled inversion of the liner. The winding and inversion processes are controlled via an operator control unit.

The inversion drum type V can handle up to 100 metre long DN 500 liners with a wall thickness of 8.5 mm. Two operators can easily push and move the entire system on a level surface, or the inversion drum can be mounted onto a trailer.

Further inversion drums are already being designed for various lengths and liner diameters. epros also offer the associated hot water systems and lining vehicles equipped with resin mixing units.
