Good TemperatureResistanceThe George Fischer polypropylenepiping system is pressure rated to 150psi (10 bar) at 70°F (21°C) with a longterm safety factor of 2.1. The upper longterm temperature limit for polypropyleneis 176°F (80°C) and the temperature limitfor short term use is 212°F (100°C).However, as with all thermoplasticpiping systems, an increase in tempera-ture is combined with a decrease inoperating pressure.
Chemical ResistanceThe chemical resistance properties ofpolypropylene are excellent. It is resistantto aqueous solutions of acids, alkalisand salts and to a large number oforganic solvents. This wide range ofchemical resistance allows this materialto be used for many piping systems thathandle different chemicals includingcaustics, acids and solvents. Polypro-pylene is not suitable for handlingconcentrated oxidizing acids andhalogens.
IntroductionPolypropylene is one of the mostcommon, fastest growing and versatilethermoplastics currently used. Eachyear many tons of this material areconverted into diverse products rangingfrom plastic bags through automobileparts to tanks and chemical pipingsystems.
From a chemical standpoint, polypro-pylene is closely related to polyethyl-ene. As members of the group ofmaterials known as “polyolefins”, bothof these plastics are composed of onlycarbon and hydrogen. This contrastswith other commonly used plasticmaterial such as PVC and PTFE whichcontain chlorine and flurorine respec-tively.
Physical PropertiesThe physical properties of polypropy-lene combine strength, low weight,abrasion resistance, impact strengthand a wide operating temperaturerange, making it a very suitable mate-rial for use in load bearing products.Combined with excellent all roundchemical resistance and low waterabsorption, these properties combine toprovide a material that meets all of therequirements for use in a piping system.
PurityGeorge Fischer polypropylene complieswith guidelines listed in the FederalRegister, CFR Title 21, chapter 1, §177.1520 a (1) for polypropylene and c(1.1) for compounds. George Fischerpolypropylene is suitable for transportof potable water, foodstuffs, and highpurity deionized water.

Complete System of Pipe,Valves and FittingsThe George Fischer polypropylenepiping system is available in sizes from3/8" to 12". The system includes valvesthrough 12."
This system includes all commonlyrequired pressure pipe fittings, includingthreaded adaptors and flanges forease of mating to equipment or otherpiping materials. Ball valves areavailable in sizes 3/8" to 6", dia-phragm valves from 1/2" to 6" andbutterfly valves in sizes 2 1/2" to 12".Other valves including check valvesand metering valves are also availablein this system.
Fusion Joining ReliablityAssembly and joining of this system isperformed by heat fusion. Fusion jointsare made by heating and melting thepipe and fitting together. This type ofjoint gives a homogeneous transitionbetween the two components withoutthe lowering of chemical resistanceassociated with solvent cement joiningand without the loss of integrity andloss of pressure handling ability of athreaded joint.Three different fusion methods forpolypropylene are available and
commonly used in today's demandingapplications. These include socketfusion, regular butt fusion, and Infrared(IR) fusion.
Socket Fusion Joining can be used tojoin socket fusion fittings available insizes 16-110mm (3/8"-4"). The socketfusion method of joining uses a heatednon-stick “female” bushing to melt theoutside of the pipe end and a heatednon-stick “male” bushing to heat theinside of the corresponding size offitting. After several seconds, when theoutside of the pipe and the inside ofthe fitting are melted, the bushings areremoved and the pipe is pushed intothe fitting. Due to the large area ofpipe to fitting contact (3-5 times thecross sectional area of the pipe), theresulting joint is actually several timesstronger than the pipe itself. The pipeand fittings for this system are alsomanufactured to have an interferencefit; because of this interference it is notpossible to slide a fitting over the pipewithout the use of heat to melt thesurface to be joined. This featureprevents the possibility of inadvertentlyleaving a joint unfused, and moreimportantly causes displacement ofsome material during fusion therebyguaranteeing a high strength, reliable,reproducible joint.

Piping System DesignAs with all piping systems, properselection and design is necessary toensure that a successful installation canbe made. Before using this polypro-pylene piping system, the user shouldensure that the polypropylene issuitable for contact with the liquids tobe handled. This information may bereadily found in a chemical resistancechart. If polypropylene is chemicallycompatible and the operating tem-perature and pressure are within thepreviously discussed limits, then thesystem may be used. However itshould be designed to includeallowances for expansion andcontraction, pressure drops and properpipe support.
Length changes in plastic pipelines arecommonly caused by thermal expansiondue to changes in ambienttemperature and changes in the tem-perature of the media being handled.The length change for polypropylenewill be 0.0000837 inches per inch oflength per degree Fahrenheit tempera-ture change. So if the temperature ofa 100 foot straight length of pipe israised from 30°F (-1°C) to 80°F (27°C)it would grow by 5 inches. The pipe-line must be installed in such a waythat this expansion can be accountedfor. Common practice is to use eitherexpansion loops or change of directionto achieve this. In both of these cases,a length of pipe running perpendicularto the change in length is used toabsorb the expansion by being bent.
IR Plus™ Infrared Butt Fusion Joiningis an ideal method to join IR fusionfittings in the size range of 20-225mm(1/2"-9") to achieve the maximum jointconsistancy. Regular butt fusion canalso be used to join IR and buttfusion fittings in the size range of20mm and up.
Butt fusion pipe and fittings both havethe same inside and outside diameters.To make a butt fusion joint, the pipeand fitting are clamped so that theends to be joined are facing eachother. The ends are then "faced" flatand parallel. A flat heating plate isused to simultaneously heat both facesto be joined. When each end ismolten the heating plate is removedand the pipe and fitting are broughttogether. Joining is achieved by fusionbetween the molten materials.
George Fischer is constantly searchingfor and developing new joining proce-dures to improve mechanical strengths,ensure repeatability, and simplifyoperation. A recent development is theGeorge Fischer

Polypropylene Applications
WasteOver a period of many years, polypro-pylene has become a preferredmaterial for handling many differenttypes of liquid waste. This material’swide range of chemical resistancemakes it very suitable for handling thewide range of different chemicals andmixtures that are found in differentwaste streams. The unsuitability ofpolypropylene for use with concen-trated oxidizing acids is generally nota problem because these acids willusually be diluted before they aredisposed of. The high resistance ofpolypropylene to solvents is particu-larly important, because many solventsdo not mix in water and often end upfloating in a concentrated form nearthe top of the pipe. Thus, eventhough a waste stream may containonly 1% of a solvent, it is often notpossible to regard this dilution be-cause most of the solvent will oftenfloat to the top of the pipe. Thematerial’s high temperature capabilitiesare also important in enabling it tohandle any exothermic reactions thatmay occur when different chemicalsmix.
Pressure drop calculations are used toensure correct pipe and pump sizing.By summation of pressure drop figuresthrough each length of pipe, fittingand valve, a total value for the systemcan be found.
This value can be used to help inpump selections. If the value is toohigh for the available pumps, then useof larger diameter pipe, fittings andvalves should be recommended todecrease the allowed pressure dropfor the chosen flow rate.
Correct support is also necessary toprevent sagging and damage to thepipe. The distance between the pipebrackets depends upon the pipediameter and the specific gravity of themedia as well as the maximumworking and ambient temperatures. Ifthe media to be handled is hot, then itis often advantageous to providecontinuous horizontal support by layingthe pipe within V or U shapedchannels, made of metal or a heatresistant plastic. Pipe clamps shouldpreferably be made of plastic, andshould allow longitudinal movement ofthe pipe. Pipe clamps that clamptightly onto the outside of the pipe donot allow proper expansion and maycause damage to the pipe.
Butt fusion fittings areavailable in sizes 1/2”through 12”.

Deionized WaterLarge volumes of distilled or deionizedwater are used by a wide range ofdifferent industries. This water is oftenused for diluting chemicals, washingand rinsing. Polypropylene iscommonly used as a piping materialfor conveying this water. Although itdoes not have the ultra-purity of PVDF,polypropylene piping systems are ableto maintain the purity required in allbut the most demanding installations.Fusion joining gives fast reliable joiningwithout the use of hazardous andnoxious solvents that may contaminatethe water. The total quantity ofadded lubricants and organicmaterials in polypropylene is far lessthan found in many other plasticpiping materials. The use of a pig-mented material is recommended toreduce degradation of the pipematerial from ultraviolet light. Thepigmented pipe wall will prevent thetransmission of ambient light into thepipe material. This prevents possibledegradation of the pipe wall andcorresponding particulation of plastic intothe water stream.
Caustic SolutionsThe chemical resistance of polypro-pylene to caustic solutions such aspotassium hydroxide and sodiumhydroxide is very good. The fusionjoining method gives strong joints thatare resistant to attack by thesestrongly caustic solutions. Thiscontrasts to solvent cemented jointswhich may be attacked by somecaustic solutions. For these reasonspolypropylene is often used to trans-port caustic soda used for neutralizingacidic waste streams.
General Chemical HandlingThe wide range of chemical resistanceof polypropylene makes it suitable foruse in applications where a pipingsystem may be required to carrydifferent chemicals or mixtures ofchemicals. In this case polypropyleneis often found to be one of the mostsuitable materials for handling combi-nations of many chemicals.

Allowing for length changes in PP pipelines
GeneralVariations in temperature cause greaterlength changes in thermoplastic materialsthan in metals. In the case of above-ground, wall or duct mounted pipework,particularly where subjected to varyingworking temperatures, it is necessary tomake suitable provision for length changesin order to prevent additional stresses.
Length changes can be taken up by thefollowing means:a. Flexible sectionsb. Expansion joints
The flexible section is used most frequently,as it is the simplest and most economicalmethod. The calculation and positioningof flexible sections are, therefore, de-scribed in detail.

FundamentalsIt is possible to take advantage of the verylow modulus of elasticity of PP by includ-ing special sections of pipe which com-pensate thermal length changes. Thelength of the flexible section mainly de-pends upon the pipe diameter and theextent of the length change to be com-pensated. In order to simplify planningand installation, the third influencing fac-tor—the pipe wall temperature —is nottaken into account, particularly as instal-lation usually takes place in the tempera-ture range between 5° and 25°C (41° and77°F).
Where the pipework changes direction orbranches off there is always a natural flex-ible section. Movement of the flexible sec-tion a caused by the length change ∆ lmust not be impeded in the area con-cerned by too tightly mounted pipe brack-ets, jutting brickwork, girders or similar.

Determining the LengthChange (∆L) (Example 1)
L = 8 m (315 inches)
F fixed pointa
+ ∆ I2- ∆ I1
In order to determine the length offlexible section required, the extent of thelength change must be ascertained firstof all, by means of the following formulawhere
∆L = length change in mm or inches.L = length in m or inches of the pipe
or pipe section where the lengthchange is to be determined.
∆T = difference between installationtemperature and maximum orminimum working temperaturerespectively in °C (or °F).
δ = coefficient of linear expansion ofthe pipe material in mm/m °C,(inches/inch °C), or inch/inch °F(see tables below).
The length change can also be takendirectly from diagram 1 as shown on thefollowing pages.
Important: If the working temperature ishigher than the installation temperaturethe pipe becomes longer. If, on the otherhand, it is lower than the installationtemperature, the pipe becomes shorter.
Therefore: the installation temperature aswell as the maximum and minimumworking temperatures must be taken intoaccount.
The procedure is explained using acoolant pipe as an example:Length of the pipe from the fixed point tothe branch where the length change is tobe taken up: L = 8 m (315 inches)Installation temperature: Tv = 15°CTemperature of the coolant: T

Determining the Length of theFlexible Section (a)(Example 2)The values required to determine thelength of the flexible a section are:
The maximum length change ∆L, incomparison with the zero position duringinstallation, (which can be either anexpansion or a contraction), and thepipe diameter d.
If values a and d are known, the extentof the maximum length change ∆L to becompensated can be taken from table 1for specific lengths of flexible section a.If values ∆L and d are known, diagram 2(on the following page) for optionallength changes shows the length offlexible section a required.

In example 1, if the pipe to be installed isd = 50 mm, the length of flexible sectionrequired, i.e.1250 mm, can be takendirectly from diagram 2, based on themaximum length change of –∆L
1, = 32.4
mm (1 .28 in.).
Installation HintsThe length changes in pipework sectionsshould be clearly controlled by thearrangement of fixed brackets. It ispossible to distribute the length changesin pipework sections by suitable position-ing of fixed brackets (see adjoiningexamples).
If it is not possible to include a flexiblesection at a change of direction orbranch, or if extensive length changesmust be taken up in straight sections ofpipework, expansion loops may also beinstalled. In this case the length changeis distributed over two flexible sections.
For an expansion loop, (taking example1), the length change of 32.4 mm (1 .28in.) would require a flexible sectionlength of a = 830 mm (32.68 in.). Asingle flexible section on the other hand,would need to be 1250 mm (49.21 in.) inlength.
In particularly difficult cases, where thelength changes are large and acting inone direction only, it is also possible topre-stress the flexible section duringinstallation, in order to reduce the lengthof a. This procedure is illustrated in thefollowing example:Installation conditions:L = 10 m (394 in.)d = 50 mm (1-1/2 in.)Installation temperature: 15°CMax. working temperature: 80°CMaterial: PP1 . Length change+∆L = L • ∆T • δ = 10•65• (.15) = 97.5 mm
394•65•1 .5•(.00015) = 3.84in.2. Flexible section required to take up
length change of ∆L = 97.5 mm (3.84in.) according to diagram: a = approx.2000 mm (78.7 in.).

3. If, on the other hand, the flexible sec -tion is pre-stressed to ∆L/2, therequired length of flexible section isreduced to approx. 1500 mm (59 in.).The length change, starting from thezero position, then amounts to ± ∆L/2
=97.5/2 (3.84/2) = 48.75 mm
(1 .92 in.).
In special cases, particularly at highworking temperatures, pre-stressing of aflexible section improves the appear-ance of the pipeline in service, as theflexible section is less stronglydeflected.

The Incorporation ofCompensators (Expansionjoints)
Due to the low modulus of elasticity ofPP, the reaction force of a plastic pipewhen subjected to variations in tempera-ture is slight in comparison with metals.The normal expansion joints intended formetal pipes are, therefore, as a ruleunsuitable, due to their high resistance.For this reason, only easily functionedexpansion joints may be incorporated inplastic pipework, i.e. those with a lowresistance. In this respect the followingtypes may be considered: rubberexpansion joints, PTFE corrugatedexpansion joints, or if chosen suitably,metal multi-disc expansion joints.
When fitting an expansion joint, the pipemust be regulated with fixed points so asto ensure perfect functioning underworking conditions. The installationtemperature is used as the basis for this.
In pipe sections with expansion joints thepipe bracket spacing given in thesection on support spacing may on noaccount be exceeded. Where expansionjoints are incorporated in vertical piperuns the pipe bracket spacing given forhorizontal pipelines is applicable.
The Installation of Pipeworkunder Plaster orEmbedded in Concrete
Padded PipeworkWhere pipework installed under plasteror embedded in concrete changesdirection or branches off, the flexiblesection under consideration must bepadded along the length a, which isbased on the calculated length change.The accompanying tees or elbows must,of course, also be included in thepadding. Only flexible materials, suchas glass wool, mineral wool, foamplastic or similar may be used forpadding.
The Incorporation of Valves
Valves should be mounted as direct aspossible, i.e. they should be formed asfixed points. The actuating force is thustransmitted directly, and not through thepipeline. The length changes, startingfrom the valve, are to be controlled asdescribed previously.
For safe mounting of plastic valves,George Fischer valve brackets orGeorge Fischer valves equipped fordirect mounting are especially suitable.

Pipe bracket support centers and fixation of plastic pipelines
PP pipelines need to be supported at spe-cific intervals, depending upon the mate-rial, the average pipe wall temperature,the specific gravity of the medium, and thediameter and wall thickness of the pipe.The determination of the pipe support cen-ters has been based on the permissible
amount of deflection of the pipe betweentwo brackets. The pipe bracket centersgiven in Table 1 are calculated on the basisof a permissible deflection of max. 0.25cm (0.01 inch) between two brackets.

Installation of closely spaced pipebracketsA continuous support may be moreadvantageous and economical thanpipe brackets for small diameter hor-izontal pipework, especially in a highertemperature range. Installation in a “V”-or "U"-shaped support made of metal orheat-resistant plastic material hasproven satisfactory.
Pipe bracket requirementsWhen mounted, the inside diameter ofthe bracket must be greater than theoutside diameter of the pipe, in order toallow length changes of the pipe at thespecified points. The inside edges of thepipe bracket must be formed in such away that no damage to the pipe surfaceis possible. George Fischer pipe brack-ets meet these requirements. They aremade of plastic and may be used underrugged working conditions and also inareas where the pipework is subjectedto the external influence of aggressiveatmospheres or media. George Fischerpipe brackets are suitable for PVC,CPVC, PE, PP and PVDF pipes.
Installation examples using GeorgeFischer pipe bracketsShort center to center distances due tosmall overall dimensions of theGeorge Fischer pipe bracket andthe George Fischer shell coupling .
Arrangement of loose bracketsAxial movement of the pipeline must notbe impeded by fittings positioned nextto the pipe bracket or by any otherchange in the pipe diameter.
Sliding or hanger type brackets permitmovement of the pipeline in variousdirections. A sliding block attached tothe base of the pipe bracket, when on aflat supporting surface, allows movementas required. When the pipe run changesdirection, sliding or hanger type brack-ets are necessary at given points inorder to maintain free movement of thepipe.
Arrangement of fixed bracketsIf the pipe bracket is positioned directlybeside a fitting, the length change of thepipeline is limited to one direction only(one-sided fixed point).
If it is, as in most cases, necessary tocontrol the length change of the pipelinein both directions, the pipe bracket mustbe positioned between two fittings. Thepipe bracket must be robust and firmlymounted in order to take up the forcearising from the length change in thepipeline. Hanger type brackets are notsuitable as fixed points.

Material Handling
To Avoid Pipe Damage and Ovaling:
• Always store material in a safe, stable enviroment away from direct sunlight. • Avoid dropping or scratching pipe when handling• High purity products should remain in protective bags until the material is in
a clean enviroment• Pipe should not be stacked higher than 3 feet

GF Product Size Definition
All GF products are listed in mm.All product sizes are based on its O.D. (Outside Diameter - Shown as “d”)Inside Diameter (I.D.) = O.D. – 2x Wall Thickness (Shown as “e”).Closest inch size to GF products:
• 20mm = ½”• 25mm = ¾”• 32mm = 1”• 40mm = 1¼”• 50mm = 1½”• 63mm = 2”• 75mm = 2½”• 90mm = 3”• 110mm = 4”• 160mm = 6”• 200mm = 8”• 225mm = 9”• 250mm = 10”• 315mm = 12”

GF Pressure Rating Definitions
Two standards for measuring nominal pressure:
Bar = Newton per Square Meter = 1 N/m² (European standard used by GF)
PSI = Pounds per Square Inch = 1 lb/in² (US standard)
Equivalent pressure ratings:
1 Bar = 14.51 PSI 6 Bar = 87 PSI
10 Bar = 145 PSI 16 Bar = 232 PSI
SYGEF® PVDF pipe and fittings are manufactured to:
20mm (1/2”) though 110mm (4”) to 16 Bar (232 PSI)
90mm (3”) through 225mm (9”) to 10 Bar (150 PSI)
PROGEF® Natural pipe and fittings are manufactured to:
20mm (1/2”) though 63mm (2”) to 10 Bar (150 PSI)
75mm (2-1/2”) through 110mm (4”) to 6 Bar (90 PSI)
PROGEF® Standard pipe and fittings are manufactured to 10 Bar only.
Materials with Different Pressure Ratings Can Not Be Fused Together!Example: PN 10 PVDF Can Not Be Fused to PN 16 PVDF

Clamping and Supporting
DVS 2210 and GF documentation - Use loose clamps whenever possible.- Fixed clamps only when engineering requires.
There are two ways of clamping plastic pipe:• Fixed or anchored so pipe cannot move.• Loose or snug allowing pipe to move with expansion and contraction.
Install loose or snug clamps everywhere except:• Pumps• Tanks• Vertical Risers• Expansion Joints
Never allow plastic on metal contact!Always use proper cushion strips between the pipe and the clamp.
Fixed clampLoose clamp
139
GF Piping Systems
Clamping and Supporting
A continuous support should be used whenever:• Spacing of supports are so close they are no longer practical.• Any high temperature application.• Overhead structural obstruction that does not permit hangers.
Methods of continuous support:
• Angle Iron• Channel• Tray• Within another pipe
No sharp edges allowed
Always support valves independent from the pipe.• GF diaphragm and ball valves have mounting holes for ease of installation.
140
GF Piping Systems
Preparation for the Test, Check That:• System conforms with installation drawing.• Every mechanical connection is checked for proper torquing.
For example: Unions are installed per manufacture recommedations,Verify bolt torque on all diaphragm valves.
• Pipe, valves, and fittings are correctly supported and fixed.• System is filled with liquid (water) and all air is removed through high point
vents. Compressed gas is not allowed!
Pressure Test Suggestion:Test system to 150% of operational pressure but do not exceed the lowest rated component. See the next slide for detailed information.
Pressure Loss Due to Elastic Expansion:It is normal to experience a pressure loss due to elastic expansion generated from the internal pressure and external temperature changes. In the event of pressure loss, walk the system and look for water on the ground to determine if there is a leak.

Pressure Test Procedure
Pressure Test Procedure of all Georg Fischer Thermoplastic Piping Systems
The following is a general test procedure for Georg Fischer plastic piping. It applies to most applications. Certain applications may require additional consideration. For further questions regarding your application,please contact a Georg Fischer representative.
1. All piping systems should be pressure tested prior to being put into operational service.
2. All pressure tests should be conducted in accordance with the appropriate building, plumbing, mechanical, and safety codes for the area where the piping is being installed.
3. When testing plastic piping systems, all tests should be conducted hydrostatically and should not exceed the pressure rating of the lowest rated component in the piping system (often a valve). Test the system at 150% of the designed operational pressure. i.e.: If the system is designed to operate at 80 PSI, then the test will be done at 120 PSI.
4. When hydrostatic pressure is introduced to the system, it should be done gradually through a low point in the piping system with care taken to eliminate any entrapped air by bleeding at high points within the system. This should be done in four stages, waiting ten minutes at each stage (adding ¼ the total desired pressure at each stage).
5. Allow one hour for system to stabilize after reaching desired pressure. After the hour, in case of pressure drop, increase pressure back to desired amount and hold for 30 minutes. If pressure drops by more than 6%, check system for leaks.
Note: If ambient temperature changes by more than 10°F during the test, a retest may be necessary.
Do not test with gases
142

Service and Preventative Maintenance
1. Clean the bottom inlet piece of the heater with a stainless steel brush in case melted plastic builts up. (See example).
2. If shavings stick to ceramic coated heater, leave them alone. Shavings will burn off themselves.

Clamping and Supporting
DVS 2210 and GF documentation - Use loose clamps whenever possible.- Fixed clamps only when engineering requires.
There are two ways of clamping plastic pipe:• Fixed or anchored so pipe cannot move.• Loose or snug allowing pipe to move with expansion and contraction.
Install loose or snug clamps everywhere except:• Pumps• Tanks• Vertical Risers• Expansion Joints
Never allow plastic on metal contact!Always use proper cushion strips between the pipe and the clamp.
Fixed clampLoose clamp
202
GF Piping Systems
Clamping and Supporting
A continuous support should be used whenever:• Spacing of supports are so close they are no longer practical.• Any high temperature application.• Overhead structural obstruction that does not permit hangers.
Methods of continuous support:
• Angle Iron• Channel• Tray• Within another pipe
No sharp edges allowed
Always support valves independent from the pipe.• GF diaphragm and ball valves have mounting holes for ease of installation.
203
GF Piping Systems
Preparation for the Test, Check That:• System conforms with installation drawing.• Every mechanical connection is checked for proper torquing.
For example: Unions are installed per manufacture recommedations,Verify bolt torque on all diaphragm valves.
• Pipe, valves, and fittings are correctly supported and fixed.• System is filled with liquid (water) and all air is removed through high point
vents. Compressed gas is not allowed!
Pressure Test Suggestion:Test system to 150% of operational pressure but do not exceed the lowest rated component. See the next slide for detailed information.
Pressure Loss Due to Elastic Expansion:It is normal to experience a pressure loss due to elastic expansion generated from the internal pressure and external temperature changes. In the event of pressure loss, walk the system and look for water on the ground to determine if there is a leak.

Pressure Test Procedure
Pressure Test Procedure of all Georg Fischer Thermoplastic Piping Systems
The following is a general test procedure for Georg Fischer plastic piping. It applies to most applications. Certain applications may require additional consideration. For further questions regarding your application,please contact a Georg Fischer representative.
1. All piping systems should be pressure tested prior to being put into operational service.
2. All pressure tests should be conducted in accordance with the appropriate building, plumbing, mechanical, and safety codes for the area where the piping is being installed.
3. When testing plastic piping systems, all tests should be conducted hydrostatically and should not exceed the pressure rating of the lowest rated component in the piping system (often a valve). Test the system at 150% of the designed operational pressure. i.e.: If the system is designed to operate at 80 PSI, then the test will be done at 120 PSI.
4. When hydrostatic pressure is introduced to the system, it should be done gradually through a low point in the piping system with care taken to eliminate any entrapped air by bleeding at high points within the system. This should be done in four stages, waiting ten minutes at each stage (adding ¼ the total desired pressure at each stage).
5. Allow one hour for system to stabilize after reaching desired pressure. After the hour, in case of pressure drop, increase pressure back to desired amount and hold for 30 minutes. If pressure drops by more than 6%, check system for leaks.
Note: If ambient temperature changes by more than 10°F during the test, a retest may be necessary.
Do not test with gases

Two standards for measuring nominal pressure:
Bar = Newton per Square Meter = 1 N/m² (European standard used by GF)
PSI = Pounds per Square Inch = 1 lb/in² (US standard)
Equivalent pressure ratings:
1 Bar = 14.51 PSI 6 Bar = 87 PSI
10 Bar = 145 PSI 16 Bar = 232 PSI
SYGEF® PVDF pipe and fittings are manufactured to:
20mm (1/2”) though 110mm (4”) to 16 Bar (232 PSI)
90mm (3”) through 225mm (9”) to 10 Bar (150 PSI)
PROGEF® Natural pipe and fittings are manufactured to:
20mm (1/2”) though 63mm (2”) to 10 Bar (150 PSI)
75mm (2-1/2”) through 110mm (4”) to 6 Bar (90 PSI)

Clamping and Supporting
DVS 2210 and GF documentation - Use loose clamps whenever possible.- Fixed clamps only when engineering requires.
There are two ways of clamping plastic pipe:• Fixed or anchored so pipe cannot move.• Loose or snug allowing pipe to move with expansion and contraction.
Install loose or snug clamps everywhere except:• Pumps• Tanks• Vertical Risers• Expansion Joints
Never allow plastic on metal contact!Always use proper cushion strips between the pipe and the clamp.

Clamping and Supporting
A continuous support should be used whenever:• Spacing of supports are so close they are no longer practical.• Any high temperature application.• Overhead structural obstruction that does not permit hangers.
Methods of continuous support:
• Angle Iron• Channel• Tray• Within another pipe
No sharp edges allowed
Always support valves independent from the pipe.• GF diaphragm and ball valves have mounting holes for ease of installation.
233
GF Piping Systems
Preparation for the Test, Check That:• System conforms with installation drawing.• Every mechanical connection is checked for proper torquing.
For example: Unions are installed per manufacture recommedations,Verify bolt torque on all diaphragm valves.
• Pipe, valves, and fittings are correctly supported and fixed.• System is filled with liquid (water) and all air is removed through high point
vents. Compressed gas is not allowed!
Pressure Test Suggestion:Test system to 150% of operational pressure but do not exceed the lowest rated component. See the next slide for detailed information.
Pressure Loss Due to Elastic Expansion:It is normal to experience a pressure loss due to elastic expansion generated from the internal pressure and external temperature changes. In the event of pressure loss, walk the system and look for water on the ground to determine if there is a leak.

Pressure Test Procedure
Pressure Test Procedure of all Georg Fischer Thermoplastic Piping Systems
The following is a general test procedure for Georg Fischer plastic piping. It applies to most applications. Certain applications may require additional consideration. For further questions regarding your application,please contact a Georg Fischer representative.
1. All piping systems should be pressure tested prior to being put into operational service.
2. All pressure tests should be conducted in accordance with the appropriate building, plumbing, mechanical, and safety codes for the area where the piping is being installed.
3. When testing plastic piping systems, all tests should be conducted hydrostatically and should not exceed the pressure rating of the lowest rated component in the piping system (often a valve). Test the system at 150% of the designed operational pressure. i.e.: If the system is designed to operate at 80 PSI, then the test will be done at 120 PSI.
4. When hydrostatic pressure is introduced to the system, it should be done gradually through a low point in the piping system with care taken to eliminate any entrapped air by bleeding at high points within the system. This should be done in four stages, waiting ten minutes at each stage (adding ¼ the total desired pressure at each stage).
5. Allow one hour for system to stabilize after reaching desired pressure. After the hour, in case of pressure drop, increase pressure back to desired amount and hold for 30 minutes. If pressure drops by more than 6%, check system for leaks.
Note: If ambient temperature changes by more than 10°F during the test, a retest may be necessary.
Do not test with gases

PROGEF® Standard PP PROGEF® Natural PP Flange
239
Please read all instructions before attempting to install flanges.
IntroductionWhen to Use a Flange
Flanges may be used when
the piping system may need to be dismantled•
the installation is temporary or mobile•
transitioning between dissimilar materials that can not •
be cemented together
the installation environment is not conducive to fusion •
joining
Why Choose a Flange?
All PROGEF® Polypropylene flange adapters, in
combination with GF flange rings, pipe and fittings, are
lightweight and easy to install. However, PP has different
physical properties than metals, and therefore special care
is required to ensure that your PP flange connections have
a long, reliable service life. Installers should study these
instructions and follow them carefully in every installation
in order to ensure satisfactory performance and enjoy the
full benefits of the GF warranty.
When using a polypropylene flange, ensure that the entire
system is well-supported and that the flange does not bear
the weight of a massive, unsupported system component
such as a cast iron valve. See support instructions in the
GF Technical Manual online:
http://www.gfpiping.com/downloads/engbook/engbook.pdf
MaterialsPolypropylene (PP) Flange Adapters
Visually inspect flange adapters for cracks, deformities,
and solvent cement or other obstructions on the sealing
surfaces.
Flange Seals
A seal must be used between the flange adapter faces in
order to ensure a good seal. The seal can be a flat gasket
or gasket with profile. Select the seal material based on
the chemical resistance requirements of your system.
For applications with maximum 90 PSI (6 Bar), working
pressures the flat gaskets can be used. Steel-reinforced
flange rings are recommended in combination with flat
gaskets due to the higher torque values. Full-face gaskets
with shore A scale hardness of 70 ±5 should be used. All
recommended torque values in tables 5 and 6 are based on
this gasket hardness. For other hardness requirements,
contact GF Technical Services.
At increased working and testing pressures, the profile
flange gasket is recommended. Compared to a flat gasket,
the profile gasket is made of two components. One is the
crowned flat gasket part, which is reinforced with steel,
and the other is the profile part (O-ring, lip seal) on the seal
inner side.
The stabilized profile flange gaskets have the following
advantages:
• Reliable seal with minimum fastener torque
• Can be used with higher internal pressure or internal
vacuum
• Easy to install
• Influenced less by the flange surface
• Safe when connecting pipes of different materials

Fasteners
It is critical to avoid excessive compression stress on a
flange. Therefore, only low-friction fastener materials
should be used. Low-friction materials allow torque to be
applied easily and gradually, ensuring that the flange is
not subjected to sudden, uneven stress during installation,
which can lead to cracking.
Either the bolt or the nut, and preferably both, should be
zinc-plated to ensure minimal friction. If using stainless
steel bolt and nut, lubricant must be used to prevent high
friction and seizing. In summary, the following fastener
combinations are acceptable:
• zinc-on-zinc, with or without lube
• zinc-on-stainless-steel, with or without lube
• stainless-on-stainless, with lube only
Cadmium-plated fasteners, while becoming more
difficult to obtain due to environmental concerns, are
also acceptable with or without lubrication. Galvanized
and carbon-steel fasteners are not recommended. Use
a copper-graphite antiseize lubricant to ensure smooth
engagement and the ability to disassemble and reassemble
the system easily.
Bolts must be long enough that two complete threads
are exposed when the nut is tightened by hand. Using a
longer bolt does not compromise the integrity of the flange
connection, although it wastes material and may make
tightening more difficult due to interference with nearby
system components.

241
A washer must be used under each bolt head and nut. The
purpose of the washer is to distribute pressure over a wider
area, reducing the compression stress under the bolt head
and nut. Failure to use washers voids the GF warranty.
Torque Wrench
Compared to metals, plastics are relatively flexible and
deform slightly under stress. Therefore, not only must
bolt torque be controlled in order to avoid cracking the
flange, but continuing to tighten the bolts beyond the
recommended torque levels may actually make the seal
worse, not better.
Because bolt torque is critical to the proper function of a
flange, a current, calibrated torque wrench accurate to
within ±1 ft-lb must be used.
Experienced installers may be tempted to forgo the use
of a torque wrench, relying instead on “feel.” GF does not
endorse this practice. Job-site studies have shown that
experienced installers are only slightly better than new
trainees at estimating bolt torque by feel. A torque wrench
is always recommended.
Never use an impact wrench to install a flange.
Refer to Tables 5 and 6 for recommended fastener torque
settings.
InstallationChecking System Alignment
Before assembling the flange, be sure that the two parts
of the system being joined are properly aligned. GF has
developed a “pinch test” that allows the installer to assess
system alignment quickly and easily with minimal tools.
First check the gap between the flange adapter faces by
pinching the two mating components toward each other
with one hand as shown below. If the faces can be made to
touch, then the gap between them is acceptable.
Next check the angle between the flange adapter faces. If
the faces are completely flush when pinched together, as
shown above, then the alignment is perfect, and you may
continue installation. Otherwise, pinch the faces together
so that one side is touching, then measure the gap between
the faces on the opposite side. The gap should be no more
than 1/8”.
To assess high-low misalignment, pull the flange faces
flush together. If the faces are concentric within 1/8”, then
the high-low misalignment is acceptable.
If the gap between the mating components can not be
closed by pinching them with one hand, or if the angle or
high-low misalignment between them is too large, then
using the bolts to force the components together will result
in excessive stress and possible failure during or after
installation. In this case, inspect the system to find the
greatest source of misalignment and refit the system with
proper alignment before bolting.
The pinch test is a good rule of thumb, but always use
common sense as well. If it seems difficult or awkward to
pull the flange faces together, then stop the installation and
either refit the system or consult your GF representative
before proceeding.
242
Bolt Hole Alignment
Orientation of bolts should be outside of main axis.
Horizontal pipelines should have the shown orientation of
the bolts. This will avoid medium drops on the bolts in case
of a leak.
To align the bolt holes of a fixed flange, use standard two-
holing procedure.
Placing the Gasket
Center the gasket between the flange adapter faces, with
the bolt holes at the outer edge of the gasket. A gasket cut
to the specified dimensions (see Table 1) should come just
to the inner edge of the flange adapter face near the flow
path, or overlap the edge slightly.
Inserting the Bolts
If using copper-graphite antiseize lubricant as
recommended, apply the lubricant evenly with a brush
directly to the bolt threads, and to the nut if desired. Cover
the bolt from its tip to the maximum extent to which the nut
will be threaded.
Insert bolts through washers and bolts holes as shown:
Tighten all nuts by hand. As you tighten each nut, the nuts
on the other bolts will loosen slightly. Continue to hand-
tighten all of the nuts until none remain loose. Now the
flange assembly will remain in place as you prepare to fully
tighten it.
Again, when hand-tightened, at least two threads beyond
the nut should be exposed in order to ensure permanent
engagement. If less than two threads are exposed,
disassemble the flange and use longer bolts.
Tightening the Bolts
Plastic flanges require gradual, even bolt tightening.
Tightening one bolt to the maximum recommended torque
while other bolts are only hand-tight, or tightening bolts in
the wrong order, produces uneven stresses that may result
in cracking or poor sealing.
To ensure even distribution of stresses in the fully-installed
flange, tighten the bolts in a star pattern as described in
ANSI B16.5:
The torque required on each bolt in order to achieve
the best seal with minimal mechanical stress has been
carefully studied in laboratory and field installations, and is
given in Tables 5 and 6.
To ensure even distribution of stresses and a uniform seal,
tighten the bolts to the first torque value in the sequence,
using a star pattern, then repeat the star pattern while
tightening to the next torque value, and so on up to the
maximum torque value.
Polypropylene, like all polymers, deforms slightly under
stress. A final tightening after 24 hours is recommended,
when practical, to ensure that any bolts that have loosened
due to relaxation of the polymer are fully engaged.
If a flange leaks when pressure-tested, retighten the bolts
to the full recommended torque and retest. Do not exceed
the recommended torque before consulting an engineer or
GF representative.

* Assumes the use of SS, zinc- or cadmium-plated bolt and/or nut along with copper-graphite antiseize lubricant brushed directly onto the bolt threads.
** Assumes the use of zinc- or cadmium-plated bolt, nut, or both. Never use unlubricated, uncoated bolts and nuts with flanges, as high friction and seizing lead to unpredictable torque and a high incidence of cracking and poor sealing.
Note that the torques listed in Tables 5 and 6 are for flange
adapter to flange adapter connections. For other types
of connections, such as between a flange and a butterfly
valve, where the full face of the flange is not in contact with
the mating component, less torque will be required. Do
not apply the maximum listed torque to the bolts in such
connections, which may cause deformation or cracking,
since the flange is not fully supported by the mating
component. Instead, start with approximately two-thirds
of the listed maximum torque and increase as necessary to
make the system leak-free after pressure testing.
DocumentationKeep Instructions Available
Provide a copy of these instructions to every installer on the
job site prior to beginning installation. Installers who have
worked primarily with metal flanges often make critical
mistakes when installing polypropylene flanges. Even
experienced installers will benefit from a quick review of
good installation practices before starting a new job.
Installation Tags
Best practices include tagging each flange with
• installer’s initials
• installation date
• final torque value (e.g., “29.2-31.5”)
• confirmation of 24-hour torque check (“y” or “n”)
This information can be recorded on pre-printed stickers,
as shown below, and placed on each flange immediately
after installation.
Experience has shown that installation tags speed up
the process of resolving system leaks and product
failures, improve communication between the contractor
and distributor or manufacturer, highlight training
opportunities, and promote worker diligence.

Item #M306PP (10/09)© Georg Fischer LLC 2009
Common Questions and ConcernsQ: Will my warranty be voided if these instructions are not
followed precisely?
A: Not necessarily. We recognize that not every installation
occurs under perfect conditions, and our flanges are
designed to withstand reasonable variations in operating
conditions and stress. If there is any doubt about the
cause of a failure, contact your GF representative. We’ll
work with you to find a solution.
Q: What if the specified materials aren’t available?
A: We perform our testing with the most commonly
available bolts, lubricants, and gasket materials
whenever possible. If you must use a material or
component not mentioned in these instructions,
call your GF representative to ask about acceptable
substitutions.
Q: Can I purchase installation materials from GF?
A: We offer the profile flange gaskets, and recommend to
buy it from GF to be sure you are using the correct type.
GF does not offer bolts and lubricants. However, we will
gladly review the materials you intend to use prior to
installation.
Q: Is it possible to tell if a flange was installed incorrectly?
A: Yes, usually. Bolt torque is easy to verify with a torque
wrench, and excessive force, rough handling, or use
of non-specified components are often apparent from
marks, indentations, discoloration, the microscopic
appearance of cracks, etc. When in doubt, your GF
representative can put you in touch with a factory expert
who can help determine whether a flange has been
installed correctly.
Q: I installed a flange as instructed, and it still leaks. Do I
have to replace the flange?
A: First you should loosen and inspect the flange. Make
sure there are no cracks, the gasket is in good condition,
the bolts are well-lubricated (if applicable) and the
system is properly aligned. Then reassemble the flange
according to these instructions and test the system
again. If you still have a problem, contact your GF
representative for help.

Please read all instructions before attempting to install unions or valves.
IntroductionBecause unions and ball valves have similar, threaded nut
connectors, these instructions have been written with both
of these components in mind. GF unions and ball valves are
designed to provide many years of service when installed
properly.
As with any piping system component, unions and valves
have particular considerations that must be kept in mind
during installation in order to ensure best performance.
Even experienced installers will benefit from reviewing
these instructions before each installation.
Valve SupportBall valves must be well-supported. Refer to the GF
Engineering Handbook for detailed instructions on support
installation. (http://www.gfpiping.com)
An unsupported or insufficiently-supported valve body
will twist when opened and closed, subjecting the union
connection to torque stress that may cause cracking or
distortion and subsequent leakage.
System AlignmentThe major contributor to union nut failures is misalignment.
Uneven compression of the o-ring will cause leaks to occur.
Union nuts can be damaged by the stress of holding a
misaligned system together.
Sealing MechanismGF union connections use an o-ring as the sealing
mechanism which is highly effective under relatively low
tightening force.
Dirt and DebrisAn often overlooked issue is the presence of dirt and debris
on the o-ring or sealing surface. This will prevent proper
o-ring sealing; if it is present on the nut or body threads, it
will clog the threads and prevent proper tightening.
InstallationUnderstand and carefully follow these installation steps
in order to ensure a seal that is sufficient to guard against
leaks while avoiding excessive forces that can damage the
union nut.
End ConnectorsAlways remove the union nut and end connectors from the
ball valve for installation.
Make sure that you slide the union nut onto the pipe, with
the threads facing the proper direction, BEFORE installing
the end connector.
Solvent CementingSolvent cementing of pipe into the union or ball valve
sockets should be done before the union nut connections
are engaged. Be careful not to get any cement on the
sealing surfaces, which can disrupt the seal and cause
leaks. For best results, allow the cemented joint to
properly cure prior to assembling the union nut connection,
in order to avoid damaging the uncured joint.
O-Ring PlacementOnce the cement has cured, ensure that the o-ring is
securely seated in its groove. The o-ring should rest
securely in place without adhesive or other aids.
Never use any foreign substance or object to
hold the o-ring in place.
Union ConnectionThere should be no gap between the mating components,
so that the threaded nut serves only to compress the o-ring
thus creating the seal. However, a small gap (less than
1/8”) between the mating components is acceptable.
Never use the union nuts to draw together any
gaps between the mating faces of the components
or to correct any system misalignment.

Installation Instructions: Unions and True Union Ball Valves
246
Hand-Tightening (All Sizes) (see Table 1)
The next step is to hand-tighten the union nut. With the
o-ring in place, engage the nut with its mating threads
and turn clockwise with one hand. Continue turning with
moderate force until the nut no longer turns.
Be careful to use reasonable force when tightening the nut.
Your grip should be firm but not aggressive. The nut should
turn easily until it bottoms out and brings the mating faces
into direct contact.
It is recommended that you place an indexing mark, with a
permanent marker, on the union nut and body to identify the
hand tight position.
Do not use any form of lubricant on the threads of
the union nut.
Union and ball valve sizes 3/8” through 1½” should be
sufficiently sealed after hand-tightening, for the hydrostatic
pressure test of the system.
Optional Further Tightening (Sizes 2” to 4”) (see Table 1)
Based on experience, or system requirements, the
installer may choose to turn the nut an additional 1/8 turn
(approximately 45°) in order to ensure a better seal before
hydrostatically pressure testing the system.
To do this, use a strap wrench to turn the nut 1/8 turn past
the index mark applied after assembly.
Do not exceed 1/8 turn past the index mark.
Do not use any metallic tools. Tool marks on the union nut
will void manufacturer’s warranty.
At this point, the system should be hydrostatically pressure
tested before turning the union nut any farther.

Post-Test Tightening (Sizes 3/8” to 1½” only)(see Table 1)
It is highly unlikely that any union nut connection, when
tightened as instructed above, will leak under normal
operating conditions.
In the unlikely event that a leak occurs, the union nut at the
leaking joint may be tightened an additional 1/8 turn, as
described above. The system should then be re-tested.
If the joint still leaks after post-test tightening, do not
continue to tighten the nut at the leaking joint. Disassemble
the leaking joint, re-check system alignment, and check for
obstructions in the sealing area.
If the cause of a leak can not be determined, or if you
suspect that the union or valve is defective, contact your GF
representative at (800) 854-4090 for further instructions.

Quality Check After AssemblyTo check if the union connections are installed in a stress-
free manner, GF recommends that a random check of
alignment be done by removing the nut on selected union
connection one at a time. A properly installed system will
not have any movement of the piping as the nut is loosened.
If any springing action is noticed, steps should be taken to
remove the stress prior to re-installing the union nut.
DocumentationKeep Instructions AvailableProvide a copy of these instructions to every installer on the
job site prior to beginning installation.
Installation TagsBest practices include tagging each union with:
• installer’s initials
• installation date
This information can be recorded on pre-printed stickers,
as shown below, and placed on each union nut immediately
after installation.
Experience has shown that installation tags speed up
the process of resolving system leaks and product
failures, improve communication between the contractor
and distributor or manufacturer, highlight training
opportunities, and promote worker diligence.
See the GF vinyl technical manual for information on
guides, support spacing, and allowance for thermal
expansion.

Please read all instructions before attempting to install threaded parts.
IntroductionNPT threaded connections are not recommended for high
pressure systems or those greater than two inches. They
also should be avoided in systems where leaks would be
dangerous or costly.
When properly installed, threaded connections offer the
benefit of an easy and inexpensive transition to metal
systems. They can also be used for joining plastic where
the installation is expected to be modified or moved later.
Design ConsiderationsDue to the difference in stiffness between plastic and
metal, a metal male-to-plastic female joint must be
installed with care and should be avoided if possible.
Only Schedule 80 pipe may be threaded. Threading reduces
the rated pressure of the pipe by one-half.
PreparationThread SealantA thread sealant (or “pipe dope”) approved for use with
plastic or PTFE (“Teflon®”) tape must be used to seal
threads. Use either sealant or tape, not both, on the
connection.
InstallationThread SealantUse a thin, even coat of sealant.
PTFE taped must be installed in a clockwise direction,
starting at the bottom of the thread and overlapping each
pass. Do not employ more than three wraps.
Making the ConnectionStart the threaded connection carefully by hand to avoid
cross threading or damaging threads. Turn until hand tight.
Mark the location with a marker. With a strap wrench on
the plastic part, turn an additional half turn.
If leakage occurs during pressure testing, consult the chart
for next steps.
Connection Type Next Step
Plastic to Plastic Tighten up to ½ turn
Plastic Male to Metal Female Tighten up to ½ turn

AlignmentThreaded connections are susceptible to fracture or leaking
due to misalignment. Pipe should be installed without
bending. See GF technical information on guides, support
spacing, and allowance for thermal expansion.
