EBAA Iron 5012 Installation Manual

MEGA-STOP

Series 5012

PVC Bell Protection System

Installation Instructions

1. The Series 5000 MEGA-STOP Bell Protection System is designed to
prevent over-insertion of the spigot or plain end of the pipe into a push
on pipe bell, while allowing the pipe to properly expand or contract.
The Series 5000 MEGA-STOP is used on AWWA C900 PVC Pipe,
and consists of one split serrated MEGA-STOP Bell Stop Ring and
one Expansion Retention Spring (ERS).

2. Place the Expansion Retention Spring (ERS) on the spigot and posi­tion it so that the manufacture’s reference mark is visible through the
front notches. If the mark is missing due to fading or a cut pipe, place
a mark at the pipe manufacture’s recommended measurement, cham­fering the pipe may also be recommended by the pipe manufacturer.
(The ERS is bidirectional. Once placed on pipe the notches nearest
the pipe chamfer are the front notches.)

3. Disassemble the halves of the MEGA-STOP and reassemble them
on the spigot against the back side of the ERS with the extensions of
the MEGA-STOP inside of the notches on the back side of the ERS.
Tighten the side bolts evenly to a torque of 70 ft-lbs.
