Home » PVC – Pressure Pipes

HIGHLIGHT OF THE PRODUCT

Smooth internal surface – Pipes have smooth inner surface for far better as compared to AC, CI and GI pipes.
Hygienic and odour free – These pipes are most ideal for carrying potable water as it does not contaminate the water.
No corrosion – Pipes are highly resistant to any chemical reactions, resulting in a corrosion free pipe.
Chemical resistance – Pipes resistant to acids, oxidizing agents, alkalis, oils and domestic effluents.
Maintenance free – Being corrosion resistant, PVC pressure pipes does not need for painting or coating.
Economical – PVC pipes are light in weight and hence offer total economy in handling, transportation and installation.
Manufactured as per IS:4985:2000

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE FOR CPVC FOR SOLAR APPLICATION

a. Installation for solvent cemented jointing

Cutting

De-burring

Cleaning/dry

Apply Lubricant

Assembling

Solvent cemented jointing –

a. Set time – After application of solvent cement, it takes some time for the joint to set, subject to atmospheric conditions and pipe diameter

Average initial set schedule for PVC solvent cement

Temperature Range	Pipe size ½” – 1¼” (20mm – 40mm)
16⁰ – 38⁰C	2 minutes
5⁰ – 16⁰C	5 minutes
– 18⁰ – -5⁰C	10 minutes

b. Cure time – Curing time is longer time than the set time. Curing means the joint has completely matured.

Average joint cure schedule for PVC solvent cement

Relative Humidity 60% or less	Pipe size ½” – 1¼” (20mm – 40mm)
Temperature ranges during assembly & cure periods	Bar
	up to 11	11 to 26
16⁰ – 38⁰C	15 minutes	6 hours
5⁰ – 16⁰C	20 minutes	12 hours
– 18⁰ – -5⁰C	30 minutes	48 hours

c. The pressure test can only be performed after the joint is completely cured.

d. Compressed air cannot be used for leakage test.

e. In case of using paint on PVC piping system, only Latex based paints which are water based paints wherein the paint concentrate is diluted with water to make it workable and brush able. NO OIL / Solvent based paints are to be used as these paints can drastically reduce the life of the systems.
