PVC C900 High Pressure Water Pipe

1 PVC c900 high Pressure Water pipe Tough, Reliable Waterworks Products and Perfect for Municipal Water Systems Why more specifiers choose PWPipe c900 for potable Water systems. PWPipe is the largest producer of potable Water , well casing, sewer, PWPipe products meet or exceed PVC pipe in western North America turf, agriculture, plumbing, industry standards because of our and our products are available communications, and electrical rigorous quality-control program. from distributors throughout this markets. Our manufacturing geographic region. Our Water works facilities in Oregon, Washington, PWPipe supports the PVC pipe products are distributed primarily in California, Utah, and Nebraska industry's efforts to maintain the highest design and manufacturing the states West of the Rockies.

2 Assure on-time delivery. standards. We are members of the PWPipe products include PVC and PWPipe c900 high Pressure Water Uni-Bell PVC pipe Association and polyethylene pipe and tubing for a pipe combines superior materials with American Water Works Association variety of applications servicing the the latest manufacturing technology. (AWWA). 2. Corrosion Resistance Exceptional Strength and Joint Integrity c900 is immune to nearly all types Durability PWPipe's integral bell gasketed of internal and external corrosion. Every piece of c900 is hydrostatically joint meets the same strength Since PVC is a non-conductor, it is proof tested at four times its Pressure requirements of the c900 pipe , as not affected by electrolysis.

3 Nor is it class. well as the demanding test criteria of susceptible to alkaline or acid soil ASTM D 3139. The ability of PVC to conditions. A correctly installed A safety factor is applied bend without breaking allows the joint PWPipe system will provide long-term to the long-term Pressure capacity of and pipe assembly to compensate for service at reduced operating costs. the pipe . The resulting value is further minor earth movement, which reduced by a surge Pressure value, can cause problems in more rigid, Water Quality which also incorporates a non-PVC assemblies. Extractant Water purity tests safety factor.

Throughout the country, in all (UL). c900 also conforms to conditions and climates, c900 has applicable requirements of the Superior Flow served admirably in municipal Water Uniform Plumbing Code . Characteristics mains, fire lines, and sewage force An extremely smooth inner surface mains.

This means less burden on pumps and reduced pumping costs, because there's less friction between moving Water and pipe walls. 1. Clean all debris from the bell end of the pipe . Check the gasket position. Be sure it's Basic Assembly Instructions completely seated in the groove, with no raised areas. 2. Lubricate the spigot end, using only the PWPipe recommended lubricant supplied with the pipe . 3. Place the pipes in straight alignment. Assemble to the insertion line on the 1. 2. 3.

When c900 's pipe wall is extremely PWPipe offers a choice of three you have questions or encounter smooth and energy-efficient. It has a Pressure classes (100, 150, and 200) unusual circumstances, call a PWPipe Hazen-Williams coefficient of C=150. which can be used where operating representative. pressures do not exceed the Pressure PWPipe c900 gasket system** Temperature For operation at temperatures 80 F or higher, multiply the Pressure class by these derating factors: Temperature Derating Factor 80 90 100 110 120 140 Class 100 DR 25.
