The object of the invention is to provide a method and system for impregnating a liner, simultaneously reducing the risk of a void inside the liner after curing. This object is achieved by an impregnation plant (10) comprising a vacuum lock (16) comprising a housing having an inlet (14) and an outlet and defining an ambient pressure space (15) near the inlet and low pressure space (24) near the outlet. The pressure spaces are separated by a seal (20) comprising a first and a second sealing element (22, 23), allowing the fibrous liner (12) to be conveyed there between from the inlet (14) towards the outlet. The liner is degassed by compressing it between the first and second sealing elements (22, 23) and is subsequently relaxed in an uncompressed state inside the low pressure space (24). The plant further comprises a vacuum pump communicating with the low pressure space, and an impregnation station in gas-tight communication with the outlet or the vacuum lock (16) and comprising a resin bath (28) for accommodating the liner, a resin reservoir, a nozzle (32), a pipe system (38) and a resin pump (36) for propelling the resin from the resin reservoir via the pipe system (38) and the nozzle (32) into the resin bath (28) in a direction towards the liner. |
