Products - PP-R PIPES & FITTINGS



Precautionary Measures During Installation

1.To reduce from a large diameter pipe to a smaller diameter pipe, a socket must be used in conjunction with a reducer. For example, to reduce from pipe diameter of 50 mm to 25 mm, a socket 50 mm must first be attached to the 50 mm pipe followed by a reducer 50/25 mm and followed by the 25 mm pipe.

2.When using Vesbo fittings with metal threaded parts, white Teflon sealing tapes must be applied adequately to prevent leakage from threads.

3.Overtightening of fixtures to Vesbo fittings with metal parts may cause damages and leakage problems. Care must be taken to prevent overtightening.

4.During fusion welding:

  *Fusion parts must be free from sand and particles.

  *Welding time and depths must be observed.

  *Do not twist and turn pipes and fittings while inserting and detaching from welding machine.

5.Metal plugs must be used during pressure tests.

6.Pressure test must be conducted BEFORE concealing pipe works.

Product Specification

Materials:

POLYPROPYLENE RANDOM CO-POLYMER (PP-R TYPE 3)
Materials for the pipe and fitting for cold and hot water supply shall be Polypropylene Random Co-polymer (PP-R).
Type 3 which shall comply with the following standards.

Standards:

DIN 8077  BS 4991
DIN 8078  BS 6920 : Part 2 & 3
DIN 16962  Part 1 to 12

To interface with other fittings, Vesbo PP-R threaded male or female with de-zincification resistance (DZR) brass inserts complying with BS 6920 for use on drinking water. These DZR fittings are injection moulded and threads are of BS parallel and plated with nickel and chrome. All fittings shall be in accordance with the description in the prescribed standards.

Fittings:

All Vesbo pipes must be used in conjunction with Vesbo PP-R fittings and Vesbo PP-R fittings with DZR brass inserts.

Thermal Conductivity:

The thermal conductivity of the pipes and fittings shall not exceed 0.24 W/mK at 20 ºC for water.

Installation:

Vesbo PP-R pipes and fittings must be installed in accordance will the instructions given by the manufacturer's recommendations and that as stated in:

DN 16928 : Pipes of thermoplastic, pipe fittings, elements of pipes laying

DVS 2207, PART 11 -Welding of thermoplastic materials, PP pipes and fittings

DVS 2208, PART 1 - Machines and equipment for welding of PP

Pressure Test and Requirements:

Before commissioning of pipe works, procedures and requirements specified by relevant local water authorities must be adhered to. For Pressure test DIN 1988 Part 2 or BS 6700 is used.
