Product information "Slide Plates / Valve Nameplates"

Warning signs for road installations as a set, such as for hydrants, valves and water pipes

Where are warning signs for road installations used?

Information signs for utility facilities point to (among others, street caps) utility facilities and pipelines such as underground hydrants or shut-off valves for water supply, wastewater disposal and gas, district heating lines.

For example, gas network operators/municipal utilities are required to mark all buildings with a warning sign if their gas connection line contains a shut-off valve. This shut-off device allows the gas supply to the building to be quickly interrupted without excavation work in the event of an uncontrolled gas leak. This ensures the safety of the residents, neighbors, and surrounding buildings.

The fire department can also use these signs and symbols to quickly find the nearest hydrant for firefighting water .

The advantages of Information signs for road installations as a set at a glance:

  • Including field material - German quality product with a 15-year guarantee*
  • Includes aluminum combination plate - to be assembled directly on site.
  • Includes tension band for Ø 50 to 175 mm
