PVC-U Pressure Pipe System , ©QC©) 3% DADEX (OVER 85 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE eS ee ee SSPVC-U Pressure jf Pipe System Introduction Dadex has been manufacturing unplosticized Polyvinylchloride (uPVC) Pressure Pipes since 1991. Dadex is the exclusive licensee of Wevin Overseas b.v., of the Netherlands, which is one of world’s largest thermoplastic pipes manufacturer It has stote of the art equipment for manufacturing uPVC pressure pipes conforming to Pakistan Standord PS 3051:1991 ond British Standard BS 3505. Dadex uPVC pressure pipes have excellent physical and chemical characteristics due to which itis suitable for cold | potable water supply applications. Dadex uPVC pressure pipes also have exceptional hydraulic capobiliies and 1 strong resistance fo deterioration Available Range of Sizes and Pressure Classes Dadex uPVC pressure pipes are available in nominal diameter in standard length of 4m and 6m. 14” | 16" WORKING PRESSURE cu) B c D 12 173 E 15 217 Standards & Quality Assurance Dadex is the only pipe mcnufacturer in Pakistan that produces high quality rubber rings conforming to Pokistan Standard PS 1915:1987 and British Stondard BS 2494 Specifications for 'Z’ joint uPVC Pressure Pipes. Dadex uPVC pressure pipes comply with relevant national and internationol standords. In-house testing laboratory equipped with lotest testing equipment is used fo ensure quality. Laboratory testing of uPVC Pressure Pipes is carried out os per PS 3051: 1991 and (BS 3505) and include following tests: 1. Visual Inspection 2. Dimensional Analysis 3. Methylene Chloride Test 4. Impact Resistonce Test 5. Heat Reversion Test 6. Resistance to Delamination 7. Short term Hydrostatic Pressure Test Dadex hos a team of rained Soles & Technical staff to assist customers for their specific needs and provide support = onsite issues that may be required during laying, testing and commissioning of pipe system. Durability Non-corrosive and non-abrasive quolities of Dadex uPVC pressure pipes prevent degradation of the pipe system. However Prolonged exposure of Dadex uPVC pressure pipes to sun light can result in color fading, reduction in impact strength and slight increase in tensile strength.PVC-U Pressure Pipe System Advantages Dadex uPVC pressure pipes are safe for cold potable water distribution and transmission systems. The moterial does not suppor any microbial growth & prevents contamination of water. The non-corrosive nature of material and leak proof joints limit the tendency of mising suspended particles and other contaminotions that ensures risk-free distribution of water Fields of Application - Infrastructure Water Mains / Potable Water and Fire-Ring Mains - Infrastructure Sewage Mains / Pumped or Gravity Flow ~ Drainage Installations / Domestic or Industrial - Factory Supply Lines + Slurry Lines ~~ Effluent Lines: = Chemical Plant Installations = Live Stock Whey Feed Pipes * Paper Mill Installations: For Alum and Pulp Carrying = Chilled Water Lines for Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Plant/Cooling Tower - Coal Washing Plant ~ Power Station Screening Plant Pipelines - Power Station Chlorination Plant = Fume Extraction Ducts = Water Aeration Plant - Agriculture & Irrigation Features = Smooth bore with minimal frictional losses - Non-flammable/self-extinguishing = Leak-proof joints - Resistant to chemicals = Light weight - Durable = Non-conductor of electricity - Non-corrosive and non-abrasive ~ Non-contaminating and non-toxic Highly resistant to microbial growth Excellent Hydraulic Characteristics Low roughness coefficient of pipes ond joints reduces frictional losses fo © greoter extent than conventional moterials, Low frictional losses ultimately result in reduced costs that are spent on high capacity pumps, maintenance expenditures ete in cose of conventional material Non-Conductive and Non-Flammable The use of uPVC pipes (buried or above ground) is very much supported by its non-conductive and non- flammoble/selfextinguishing property. These outstanding features have made the material suitable for residential, industrial or commercial purposes. Easy to Handle Dadex uPVC pressure pipes are much lighter than ductile iron, steel and reinforced conerete pipes, which significantly reduces transportation costs and result in easy and quicker jointing Resistance to Corrosion The non-corrosive nature of material and leak proof joins limit the tendency of mixing suspended particles cond other contaminations that ensures risk-free distribution of water.PVC-U Pressure Pipe System Resistance to Chemicals Dadex uPVC pressure pipe is highly resisiant fo oqueous salt solution, mineral acids and alkalis. However, itis not recommended for highly concentrated oxidizing agents, organic esters, ketones, aromatic ‘ond chlorinated hydrocarbons, whether as a flowing fluid or their presence in surrounding soil uPVC Pressure eee | Technical Te! | Typical Value 1.42 ~1.46 30,000 | Kat/em’ 0.24 Cal/gm/C “Specific heat at 20 °C _Vieat softening point | 85 c | Thermal conductivity 0.12=0.14 | Colm/m*h'c | Lo mal ‘| Inflammability do not support | combustion Min. radius of curvature (cold bending radius} a ae ent aa Coefficient of linear thermal expansion | 7 to 8x10* mirc | | | [ (ot temp.2 5°C) Marking Dadex uPVC pressure pipes are marked with the following information at every meter interval along the length of the pipe. ~ Dadex = Material (ie. PYC-U) - Relevant standard (i.e. BS 3505 / PS 3051) = Nominal size of pipe - Pressure class in bors = Manufacturing date Temperature Effect Thermoplostics are sensitive to temperature changes in contrast fo conventional materials. Although the softening point of uPVC is greater than 80°C, it is advisable not to operate it at femperatures higher than 45°C for longer periods. At freezing point or below, the increase in volume of water inside will not crack or burst the pipe because of elastic property of the material. Two important characteristics of uPVC pressure pipes that need to be considered are the drop in pressure rating ot elevated temperotures and the thermal expansion/contraction. Performance of uPVC Pipe at Variable Temperature Pressure ratings of uPVC pipes (as described in section Toble-1) are designed at 20°C (reference temperature). At higher temperature, reduction in permissible working pressure is necessary to obtain the same service life as at a 20°C operating temperature, Following graph shows the maximum allowable working pressure at temperatures higher than reference temperature (20°C).Pipe Dimensions for Classes_ B,C,DandE (PS 3051 & BS 3505) Wall Thickness: Class B Class G Class D Glass E (6.0 bar C (2.0 bar) (120 bar) 115.0 bar) Mean Outside [Average Trerage mrerage Trorage van Ouse | Alaue. | individual Value | Valuo | Individual Value | Valve | indivigual Value} Value | Indiv!
