1 Schedule 80 PVC Technical InformationSchedule 80 PVC Pipe Dimensions & Pressure RatingsMade in the PVC Service Temperature 140 FPressure De-rating at Elevated TemperaturesThe pressure ratings given above are for water, non-shock, @ 73 F. The specifi ed derating factorsfor PVC are suitable for pipe conveying water at elevated temperatures. To determine elevatedtemperature rating, multiply 73 F [23 C] pressure rating by appropriate factor shown in the tablefor desired operating temperature. When working near maximum specifi ed temperature, solventcement joints are recommended in place of threaded connections. Where disassembly is requiredat elevated temperatures use Spears Special reinforced (SR) adapters, fl anges, unions or groovedcoupling connections.
