With a huge number of industries including hot tapping procedures worldwide, there are great number of companies providing both hot tapping and line stopping services. In general, there are accidents that result from mishandled hot tapping procedures or faulty equipments. To get the required outcome, it is very important to hire trained and experienced personnel, reliable equipment, and parts particularly designed to meet the needs of the line.
As every industry is different in itself, so the parts and equipments need to be modified according to the needs of the industry. There are numerous companies that provide fully customized hot tapping and line stopping parts and equipment specific to a particular industry. If you have a regular supplier, ask him to provide good quality parts and equipments for smooth processes.
Some materials are harder to tap into than others, and the machine used must be appropriate for the material. The machine must drill the hole, insert the valve, and then retract the bit; all while ensuring the integrity of the line. A machine incapable of doing this is an open invitation to accident.
Another most important thing to consider is to hire trained personnel having thorough knowledge of hot tapping (or Stopple) and line stopping procedures. Moreover, they must know the working of high pressure systems.
