System: 

PVC-U (Unplasticised polyvinyl chloride) is one of the most popular thermoplastic materials used for pipework installations. 

Durapipe PVC-U is a solvent welded, fully matched pipework system

incorporating pipe, fittings and valves that is available in both imperial

and metric sizes.

Scope: 

PVC-U fittings are manufactured in accordance with EN1452-3 and ISO161/1

PVC fittings Solvent cement Manifold fittings

Specification:  

Tested and approved by the world’s premier certification institutes.

ERA fittings offer both high impact and high tensile strength.

Features:  

Pressure ratings for plastic pipework systems are always quoted at 20 ° C, it is a fundamental principle of such systems that if the temperature is increased then the pressure rating must be reduced.  PVC-U systems should never be used for temperatures in excess of 60 ° C.  The following chart gives a rough guide as to the temperature/pressure relationship of PVC-U pipework systems.

PVC-U is resistant to most solutions of acids, alkalis, salts and solvents.

Fields of application: 

Piping networks for irrigation, normal water transport for industry.

PVC fittings for pressure fluid applications.
