Density Test: According to ISO 1183 standard, the density is determined by weighing the material ‘This value is 0.9 gles for PP-Fi material b. Melt Flow Index (MFI): a measure of the ease of flow of the melt of a thermoplastic polymer. It is. defined as the mass of polymer, in grams, flowing in ten minutes through a capillary of a specific diameter and length by a pressure applied via prescribed alternative gravimetric weights for alternative prescribed temperatures, The method is described in ISO 1133. The average value for PP-R is upto 0.60 gr!10 min. e. Charpy Impact Test: also known as the Charpy V-notch test, is a standardized high strainrata test Which deter- mines the amount of energy absorbed by a material during fracture. This absorbed energy is a measure of a given materials notch toughness and acts as a tool to study temperature dependent ductile-britle transition. ISO 9854 specifies a method for determining the Charpy impact strength of the product. 4. Longitudinal Reversion: This testis standardized in EN ISO 2505, which specifies a method for determin- ing the longitudinal reversion of thermoplastics pipes, to be carried out in either a liquid or in ait. The pipe is left in the oven for a certain period of time and then removed. The height and diameter variation is calculated after cooling. Accarding to the standards EN 15874 and DIN 8078, this value must not be greater than 3% Inlength and 2% in diameter. Pressure Test: The internal pressure test is standardized in ISO 1167. “Thermoplastic pipes for the conveyance of fluids - Resistance to internal pros- sure - Test method’. The test specifies a method for determination of the resistance to constant intemal pressure at constant temperature, Hydrostaticinternal pressure tests are carried out in different pressure values at 20 °C 95 °C for 22 hours, 165 hours and 1000 hours intervals. During this time, the pipes ‘should not burst. In addition to raw materials used in the pressure specified in the standard temperature of 110 °C 8760 hours (one year) are tested. This test ‘can guarantee the material ite of 50 years, Homogeneity Test: This testis standardized in EN 180 13949 which is the method for the assessment of the degree of pigment dispersion in polyolefin pipes, fittings and compounds.

Welding machines During the jointing process of PP-R pipes and fitings, ‘a welding machine is required. Dacta Therm offers two different ypes of welding machines: ‘a Welding machine for smaller diameters Welding Threader b Welding machine for bigger Welding Threader Diameter (mm) 790 50 63 110 ‘The vatious types of welding machines consist of complete devices including power sources, monitors and controls, Application 4, Make sure the working area is safe before starting the machine. 2, Welding heads should be placed on the welding machine so that the parts do not move or are not turned. Plug the welding machine in a 220 volt standard outlet ‘Adjust the temperature to 260 °C (500°). Dacta welding machine contains a fastindicating surface thermometer. ‘Switch on the power button. Heating takes 1-3 minutes. (Switching two buttons will reduce heating time.) 6, Thermostat light will dim down automatically as the temperature reaches 260 °C (500" F), 7. Insert the pipes and fittings to their respective die heads. 8. If UV or Stabil pipe is used, completely peel off the exterior layer frst. Blunt peeling blades must be replaced by Dacta Therm - approved blades, (see page 58) It will be necessary to make tral peelings to ensure the correct, setting of the new blade, Push the end of the pipe into the guide of the peeling tool. Peel off the outer layer Up to the stop of the peeling tool. It is not necessary to mark the welding depth as the stop of the peeling tool indicates the correct welding depth. Before starting the fusion, check to ensure the exterior layer has been completely removed w.hepworth.ae Welding & Installation Guidelines Dacta ME THERM Pipes and fitings should be heated at the same time, Heating times vary depending on the diameter of the pipe, Heating for too short a time can result in improper bonding.

After the heating time, quickly remove the pipe and the 1" 12, 13, 14, 18, fitting from the welding tools Foxes Join them immediately, by inserting the pipe straight into the fiting without turning. The result of the fusion is an inseparable material joining of pipe and fitting Alter jointing, wait until the cooling period has elapsed. Ate the cooling period, the fused joint is ready for use. Alter use, switch off and unplug the welding device, Let itco0! down. Never use water to coal the welding device, as this will destroy the tempered metal. Always keep the welding heads dry. ‘After completion of the welding process, the layouts with @ clean cloth or absorbent paper. Important: Ifthe air around the pipe is below 5°C (40°F), the heating times willbe increased by 50%. Remember to take greater care with the pipe as it can become brite in cold temperatures. Using power cutters on cold pipe can cause cracking and is not recommended. Use standard ratchet or wheel cutters instead. Never pre-heat the pipe beyond 38°C (100°F) Safety precautions The surface temperature of the welding iron and heads will normally be between 240°C (400°F) and 260°C (500°F) during operation, and they can remain at these temperatures for as long as 30 minutes after being un- plugged. + When working with the welding irons, always wear the appropriate hand and arm protection to avoid the risk ‘of burns, Protective eyewear is also recommended. During operation, always be aware of the location of the iron. Do not leave the iron hanging loosely or allow it to brush up against flammable materials. Make sure to keep the iron clear of other people, Inform those working nearby that the iron is hot and could pose a safety risk to them, Do not leave the iron unattended while itis plugged in. After unplugging the iron, protect it with a heat-resistant covering or place the iron back in its container. Do not allow the cord to contact the welding surfaces, + All welding tools must be free from impurities. Make sure they are clean and dry before assembling. If necessary, clean the welding tools with a coarse, non-florous tissue and with rubbing alcohol Pipes must be cut perpendicular to the axis with suitable cutting tools. Always ensure that cutters are sharp. Cutting pipes with dull or damaged ratchet cutters can cause the pipe to crack. Only use the cutters to cut PP-R material. It is also acceptable to use power saws with plastic- appropriate blades. Take care that the pipe sur-face is free trom burrs or cutting debris and removewhere necessary. For perfect fusion, damaged or dirty welding heads must be replaced, as only impeccable heads guarantee a perfect connection. If the device has been unplugged (e.g. during longer breaks) the heating process must be restarted. wow. hepworth.ae Linear expansion Dacta (a THERM The linear expansion of pipes bases on the difference between the operating temperature and the installation temperature. ‘The linear expansion of pipes is based on the difference be- tween the operating temperature and the installation tom: perature: Te ‘operating temperature - Tinstallation temperature For this reason cold water pipes have practically no linear ‘expansion. Due to the heat-dependent expansion of the material, the linear expansion must be given special consideration for hhot water and heating installations.

In HDPE, a reaction Is induced in the double bonds, so that many of them get connected and by the help of silane molecules, a three-dimensional homogenous network is created of high molecular weight. The final product (crosslinked polyethylene) has excellent performance at high temperatures combined with high pressures, has improved resistance to impact and to chemicals and has a longer lifespan. ‘Today, 60 years after their fist applications and based on their successful history, Pex pipes are constantly growing in demand gaining a significant market share. Cross-linking methods ‘The most common cross-linking methods used in industrial production are: 9 —® “~@ Peroxide method or Pex-a method Silane method or Pex-b method Radiation method or Pex-c method Al aforementioned methods achieve the same results in PE-X pipes and moet the DIN 16892/16893 and the recent European EN ISO 15875-1/2 standards. Additionally Como-pex pipes meet the ASTM F876, NSF-ANSI 14/61 and CSAB13755. Their only difference lies in the crosslinking degree specified in the US and EN standards. 70% for method =a, 65% for method -b, and -60% for method -c, For ‘example, a pipe with a cross-linking degree of 68% that has been produced using method ~a does not meet the specifications, while a pipe with the same cross-linking degree produced by method ~b does. The Come-pex pipes of Interplast are produced using the “b method. tis a method that has managed to improve the characteristics of Pex pipes since the fact that cross-linking degree continues over lime, which is considered as a huge advantage, leading as such to exceptional properties of the product during its use. Furthermore, -b method pipes, in varying degroas of erass-linking, are more homogenous in their behavior.

The diagram ilystrates the curves calculated for water temperature at 80°C. For 016x2.0 pipe and a flow rate of Q=140lh, the flow velocity is V = 0.37m/sec and the loss of head Is equal to R= 17mmH20Im. However, since we have calculated the diagram for water temperature of 80°C (central heating), we have to divide the R= 17mm value by a correction factor (Fe), if we want to calculate the loss at a water temperature of 25°C. (plumbing installation). The correction factor is provided in the following diagram and in our example equals to 0.935. ‘Therefore, R = 17/0,935 = 18,18mm H20/m, which is the true value (loss of head) at 25°C. With the help of the equivalent Pa/m (1000 Pa = 0,01 Bar), the press loss converted to Bar in the specific example is 18,18/10000 = 0,001818 Bar/m, In this diagram, itis quite simple to determine the loss of head when all other parameters are known, e.g. loss of head value in mm H20 water velocity in m/s jow rate value in Uh pipe length to be calculated in m. ro F ois 68 275 2 i 08 ois 66 28k @ 15x15%2.5 4 4 * we oe e1exix20 6628 @ T6x16x1.5 34 sé at e1exi2x22 66 292 14 @ 16x16x2.0 2 Ee IE erexiewo 7130 a7 138 ereteee “ SN orexis 72 90728 eres ee Sroxiw0 758 2 Textoe8 se8 888 a2 ovens 75 388142 8 20202.0 see SBS 18 onaaex0 8081S 9 20120%2.8 5 9859014 9 22322%3.0 40 42188 105° Wall Plate Elbow ‘The 105° wall plate elbow facilitates the intervention by the installer in the event of replacement of the brass part or the ‘entice pipeline.
