Tracer Snap | EFV IDs

Easily identify EFV installations

We now have added a feature that clearly and easily identifies EFV installations – while protecting your Tracer Wires!

With the new Tracer Snap-EFV Identification System, gas companies no longer need costly, removable, secondary tagging to mark Excess Flow Valve installations. The EFV ID System is simple yet effective and is the perfect addition to the RAD^® Tracer Snap.

The EFV ID system is an “optional” feature for our standard Tracer Snap. Our standard 6″ length Tracer Snap is (also available in six sizes) marked with specially formulated PVC black ink. Two bold and easily identified “EFV installed” imprints at either end ensures visibility above and below ground.

Customize your meter installation! We now offer a customization program for your Split Services and more! Please proceed to our Tracer Snap Customization page.

Moisture Entrapment

The Tracer Snap was designed with safety, functionality and simplicity as primary goals. The virgin grade extrusion material is from the PVC family and is fire resistant, smooth, rigid and highly resistant to any type of moisture adhesion. The Tracer Snap’s smooth surface contains mold lines which provide minuscule draining paths for any liquid and the surface does not entrap or absorb moisture. The smooth surfaces encourages any liquid to leave and escape from the pipe attachment.

In addition, the Tracer Snap extrusions are not a complete encirclement of the riser. Attached to the risers, the non-concentric characteristics of the Tracer Snap cannot trap moisture.

Coupled with the disheveled surfaces of a normal gas riser and coating, the TS provides moisture escape routes to drain moister between the Tracer Snap and the riser.

We have sold many Tracer Snaps over the past 10 years and have not had “any” claims of moisture entrapment.

In 1991, while working with gas distributions companies, we were asked if we could construct a product that would simplify the removal of abandon gas meters while maintaining proper riser placements. Our first product manufactured was the GPI RAD® Meter Bar.

Since that time, we have added to our product line by building products that are cost effective and beneficial to the gas distribution industry and are designed to fill a specific requirement for those markets.
