4 Our fittings provide qualitypipeline solutions to gas and water companies and projects across the quality and reliability of our products is ensured as we work to ISO standards for gas and water distribution are also held and you willfind details on this later in the investment in our manufacturing plants allows for innovativeproducts that meet the needs and desires of our customers to be is an ongoing commitment with Product improvements and Product lineenhancements taking place continuously. As part of our commitment to you,we will advise you regularly about changes to our range so that you are fullyaware of what products we are able to offer will find our efficient and friendly commercial team supportive throughoutthe whole of the enquiry, ordering and delivery process.

5 From delivery ortechnical questions whatever your query we are confident we will respond toyou in an informative and timely this Brochure we hope to provide you with an insight into the productswe have on you have any queries or would like to place an order, please contact usby calling 00 377 92 05 50 TESTER Full 217/12/2012 09:453 PolyethyleneMost of our fittings are made from PE, which benefits from the following characteristics: Good insulator can help prevent the freezing of liquid pipe system contents.

6 Resistant to abrasion and corrosion. Flexible and rugged. Resistant to chemical attack It does not rot, rust, pit, corrode or loose wall thickness through chemical or electrical reaction with the surrounding soil. Light weight reducing the need and costs of heavy is therefore a good choice where traditional pipe materials would be unsuitable, where ground movement occurs and where aggressive ground conditions are types of PE exist. Each type is characterised by its minimal required stress. PE used in electrofusion fittings has the following characteristics:ISO PE Classification Minimal Required Stress Long-TermHydrostaticResistance at 20 CPE80 8 MPa MPaPE100 10 MPa 8 MPaPE80 has been widely used for gas, water and industrial applications for many years.

7 PE100 is a higher performance, higher density PE, which demonstrates exceptional resistance to rapid crack propagation and long-term stress cracking. Due to the higher performance this type of PE allows for thinner walls at the same operating of UseOperating PressureThe levels of pressure used for the hydraulic pressure resistance tests, allow the definition, according to the current regulation in each country, the maximum operating pressures:Marking Pressures Generally Used MaximumTest Pressures andTest DurationPE80 SDR11 4 bar gas 80 C 8 bar ( = 4 MPa) 1,000 bar water 80 C 9 bar ( = ) 165 hoursPE80 SDR9 10 bar gas 80 C 10 bar ( = 4 MPa) 1,000 hours16 bar water 80 C bar ( = ) 165 hoursPE100 SDR11 10 bar gas 80 C 10 bar ( = 5 MPa) 1,000 hours16 bar water 80 C bar ( = ) 165 hoursIn no case should the pressure be higher than the values authorised by the current regulations in each Operating PressureThe maximum operating pressure (PMS)

8 Of piping items is the maximum inner allowable operating pressure for this item for the kind of application PMS is linked to the nominal pressure according to the use envisaged. It can be inferior or superior to the nominal pressure depending on whether the conditions of service are more or less severe than the reference PressureThe nominal pressure (PN) of piping items is expressed by a number that indicates the capability of this item to withstand an inner pressure. It corresponds to the value expressed in bar of an inner water pressure maintained constant that the piping items have to withstand without failing for 50 years at a temperature of 20 C.

Butt-welding different pipe materials PE80 to PE100 is not recommended on electrofusion fittings contain an electrical heating coil, which when energised causes the adjacent material to melt and form an expanding pool. When this comes into contact with the pipe it also causes the surface of the pipe to melt, this molten material then mixes together. After the heat cycle the fitting and pipe are left to cool so that the molten material can solidify and form a sound CyclePipe positioned in coupler prior to energising energised.
