Innovation – VAG NOVA NIRO 365 Standpost Hydrant

We keep our promise - 365 days a year and longer!

VAG has extended and optimised its standpost hydrant range by the innovation of the new NOVA NIRO 365. Its maintenance-free “encapsulated bearing” system is a novelty in the world of hydrants. The innovative encapsulated bearing has been optimised in terms of drinking-water hygiene, operates smoothly, is maintenance-free and stays that way – 365 days a year and longer!

Premium-quality stainless steel and an all-over EPP coating with GSK approval ensure perfect corrosion protection. A high-quality polyester thermoset powder coating in red colour provides reliable protection against fading caused by UV radiation – 365 days a year and longer!

We have carried over the hydrant’s proven benefits such as the double closing system, its easy installation thanks to a multi-functional sealing ring and the free alignment of the hydrant head. Milestones for safe, easy and long-term operation – 365 days a year and longer!

The NOVA NIRO 365 sets new standards in terms of reliability, drinking water hygiene, smoothness of operation, corrosion, wear and tear, freedom from maintenance of the actuator and weather resistance – 365 days a year and longer!
