There has been a lot of confusion in the thermoplastics industry regarding the use of the terms uPVC and PVC when specifying thermoplastic piping products. For many years, certain regions of the world have preferred using the term uPVC when specifying unplasticized Polyvinyl Choride piping products while other regions of the world, The United States of America for instance, prefer the acronym PVC (less the U) when specifying the same unplasticized PVC piping products. Essentially, both references indicate that the type of PVC required be unplasticized, rigid PVC.

The most important aspect of specifying PVC piping products is not the abbreviation but the cell classification of the thermoplastic material. For rigid, unplasticized Type I Grade 1 PVC material with a hydrostatic design stress of 2000psi the cell classification is 12454. These numbers indicate the minimum physical properties that a rigid, unplasticized thermoplastic compound must meet per ASTM D1784 to be used in the manufacture of pressure piping components. The same holds true for rigid, unplasticized Type IV, Grade 1 CPVC thermoplastic piping compounds however, the cell classification changes to 23447.

In summary, whether a thermoplastic vinyl piping product is specified as uPVC or PVC is not important, it is the cell classification, and materials’ physical properties that is most important Examples of PVC/CPVC specifications have been provided below.

KEY PROPERTIES

INTRODUCTION

ASTRAL have been relentless in its commitment to quality and service. Through the years, ASTRAL have broadened and enhanced its product line to serve better to the customers. ASTRAL was first to introduce CPVC pipes and fittings in Indian market and now repeating its tradition, ASTRAL is very proud to introduce Lead Free ASTM PVC Solvent Weld Industrial Piping System under the brand name Aquarius+. ASTRAL Aquarius+ ASTM PVC pipes and fittings are Lead Free and hence non toxic, easy to install and are made for life time trouble free service. ASTRAL Aquarius+ pipes and fittings are available in range of 15 mm (½”) to 300 mm (12”) with two different class SCH 40 and SCH 80 respectively.

As the full line leading manufacturer of CPVC pipes and fittings for residential and industrial applications and now with ASTM PVC pressure pipes and fittings, ASTRAL can be your one stop source for all the plastic piping system you require for lifetime plumbing solution.

PVC - POLYVINYL CHLORIDE

PVC is one of the specified thermoplastic for piping system components, including valves, fittings, flanges and many speciality products. PVC has excellent chemical and corrosion resistance to a broad range of fluids.

ASTRAL PVC materials conform to ASTM Cell Classification 12454-B of ASTM D1784 (formally designated as Type I, Grade I). The maximum recommended service temperature of PVC products is 60°C (140°F)

WHAT MAKES PVC IMPORTANT?

PVC makes a major contribution to the quality, safety and cost-effectiveness of construction materials, as well as helping to reduce the environmental impact of completed projects.

PVC is the most widely used polymer in different Industrial applications and over 50 percent of Western Europe’s annual PVC production is used in this sector.

PVC has a versatility that helps to meet modern and future design needs.

The key properties of ASTRAL Aquarius+ high pressure Lead Free Industrial Piping System are significant with following features :

STRONG AND LIGHT WEIGHT

ASTRAL Aquarius+ Lead Free Industrial Piping System is tough, durable with high tensile and impact strength. The system is light in weight and can be transported easily from one place to another.

EASY TO INSTALL

ASTRAL Aquarius+ Lead Free pipes can be cut, shaped, welded and jointed easily.

FIRE RESISTANT

ASTRAL Aquarius+ Lead Free Industrial Piping System is inherently difficult to ignite and stops burning once the source of heat is removed. Compared to its common plastic alternatives PVC performs better in terms of lower combustibility, flammability, flame propagation and heat release. Newly developed advantages in terms of lower acid emissions, smoke generation and enhanced fire resistance.

DURABLE

ASTRAL Aquarius+ Lead Free Industrial Piping System is durable and free from wealenesses caused by rusting, weathering and chemical action and hence last for life time.

UV STABILIZED

ASTRAL Aquarius+ Lead Free Industrial Piping System can be used in sunlight exposed conditions. However, ASTRAL recommends a standard grade of exterior latex paint (water base) which will protect the system adequately.

SIMPLE AND LEAK PROOF JOINTS

Jointing can be done speedily with special IPS solvent cement supplied by the company which ensures 100% leak proof joints.

SAFE MATERIAL FOR DRINKING WATER

ASTRAL Aquarius+ pipes are non-toxic and lead free which makes them a safe material for potable water. It is also the world's most researched and thoroughly tested material for uPVC which meets all international standards for safety and health for both the products and applications.

IMPORTANT FOR INSTALLERS & USERS :

MAXIMUM FLOW RATE

Smooth inner surface ensures high flow rate and low friction losses. The system is leach and scale free.

CHEMICAL RESISTANCE

uPVC is generally inert to most mineral acids, bases, salts and paraffinic hydrocarbon solutions. For more information on uPVC chemical resistance refer to Chemical Resistance of Rigid Vinyls Based.

GOOD INSULATOR

uPVC does not conduct electricity. ASTRAL Aquarius+ pipes are non conductor of electricity so it make the Industrial Piping System safe when working with electrical tools or equipments.

WIDE RANGE

ASTRAL Aquarius+ Lead Free Industrial Piping System available from ½" (15 mm) to 12" (300 mm) with wide range of fittings, transition fittings, valves and specially designed brass inserted fittings to suit any design criteria.

WATER HAMMER : ASTRAL recommends that all uPVC Plastic piping systems be designed and constructed to avoid excessive WATER HAMMER. Water hammer can cause damage and failure to pipe, valves and fittings within the piping system.

THREADED CONNECTIONS : Use a quality grade thread sealant. Do not use substances that could cause stress cracking to plastic. Major attention must be given while making plastic thread joints. 1 to 2 turns beyond FINGER TIGHT is generally all that is required to make a sound plastic connection. Unnecessary OVER TIGHTENING will cause DAMAGE TO BOTH PIPES & FITTINGS. Also give proper attention while selecting the threaded fittings, as ASTRAL manufacture some fittings with NPT threads & some fittings with BSP threads to give more versatility to customer NPT threads are not compatible with BSP threads.

STANDARDS & SPECIFICATIONS :

SEAL & GASKET LUBRICANTS : Some Lubricants, including vegetable oils are known to cause stress cracking in thermoplastics materials. A mild soap or commercially available pipe gasket lubricants suitable for uPVC is recommended where lubrication is required for installation or maintenance service (especially with Flange joints). Choice of lubricant is at the discretion of the installer.

FLOW VELOCITIES : System should not be operated or flushed out at flow velocities greater than 5 feet per second.

uPVC SCHEDULE 40 & SCHEDULE 80 AQUARIUS+ INDUSTRIAL PIPES AND FITTINGS

uPVC SCHEDULE 40 & SCHEDULE 80 AQUARIUS+ INDUSTRIAL PIPES AND FITTINGS

• Systems should be installed in a good and workmanlike manner consistent with normal industry standards and in conformance with all local safty, fire and Industrial code requirements. Failure to follow proper installation practices, procedures or techniques can result in system failure, property damage or personal injury.

• Follow manufacturers’ instructions for all related products.

1. CUT PIPE : Cut pipe square. As joints are sealed at the base of the fitting socket. An angled cut may result in joint failur. • Acceptable tools include miter saw, mechanical cut off saw or wheel cutter. Wheel type cutters must employ a blade designed for plastics.

2. REMOVE BURR AND BEVEL : Remove all burr from inside and outside of pipe with a file, or deburring tool. Chamfer(bevel) the end of the pipe 10°-15°

CLEAN : Remove surface dirt, grease, or moisture with a clean dry cloth.

3. DRY FIT : With light pressure, pipe should go one third to one half of the way into the fitting socket. Pipes and fittings that are too tight or too loose should not be used.

4. APPLICATOR : Use an applicator that is one half the pipe diameter. • Too large an applicator will force excessive cement into the inside of small diameter fittings. Too small an applicator will not apply sufficient cement to large diameter systems.

5. CEMENT : Apply a full even layer of cement to the outside of a pipe and medium layer of cement to the inside of a fitting.

6. JOIN PIPE AND FITTINGS : Assemble pipe and fitting socket till it contacts socket bottom. Give pipe a quarter turn. Hold pipe and fitting together until the pipe does not back out. • Remove excessive cement from the exterior. A properly made joint will show a continuous bead of cement around the perimeter.

N.B. : Primers must be used in solvent cement joints of uPVC plastic pipe and fittings for size above 2".

2. The piping system should be adequately anchored to limit movement. Water under pressure exerts thrust forces in piping systems. Thrust blocking should be provided at changes of direction, change in size and at dead ends.

3. Please refer tables given for initial set & cure times before pressure testing.

4. The piping systems should be slowly filled with water, taking care to prevent surge and air entrapment. The flow velocity should not exceed 1 feet per second.

5. All trapped air must be slowly released. Vents must be provided at all high points of the piping system. All valves and air relief mechanisms should be opened so that the air can be vented while the system is extremely dangerous and it must be slowly and completely vented prior to testing.

RECOMMENDED INITIAL CURE TIMES

For sizes 4" & above, ASTRAL recommends to use automatic air relief valves at every 300 - 400 mtr. distance & at furthest & highest points of pipeline to avoid any damage to the piping system.

6. The piping system can be pressurized to 125% of its designed working pressure. However care must be taken to ensure the pressure does not exceed the working pressure of the lowest rated component in the system (valves, unions, flanges, threaded parts etc.)

7. The pressure test should not exceed one hour. Any leaking joints or pipe must be cut out and replaced and the line recharged and retested using the same procedure.

Adequate supports for any piping system is a matter of great importance. In practice, support spacings are a function of pipe size operating temperatures, the location of heavy valves or fittings and the mechanical properties of the pipe material.To ensure the satisfactory operation of a ASTRAL Aquarius+ uPVC piping system, the location and type of hangers should be carefully considered. Hangers should not compress, distort, cut or abrade the piping.All piping should be supported with an approved hanger at intervals sufficiently close to maintain correct pipe alignment and to prevent sagging or geade reversal. Pipe should also be supported at all branch ends and at all changes of direction. Support trap arms as close as possible to the trap.(1) Concentrated loads should be supported directly so as to

eliminate high stress concentrations. Should this be impractical then the pipe must be supported immediately adjacent to the load.

(2) In systems where large fluctuations in temperature occur, allowances must be made for expansion and contraction of the piping system. Since changes in direction in the system are usually sufficient to allow for expansion and contraction hangers must be placed so as not to restrict this movement.

(3) Since plastic pipe expands or contracts approximately five times greater than those of steel, hangers should not restrict this movement.

(4) Hangers should provide as much bearing surface as possible. To prevent damage to the pipe, file smooth any sharp edges or burrs on the hangers or supports.

(5) Support spacing for horizontal piping systems is determined by the maximum operating temperature the system will encounter. The piping should be supported on uniform centers with supports that do not restrict the axial movement.

(6) For vertical lines, it is recommended that an engineer should design the vertical supports according to the vertical load involved.

uPVC SCHEDULE 40 & SCHEDULE 80 AQUARIUS+ INDUSTRIAL PIPES AND FITTINGS

uPVC pipes, like other piping materials, undergo length changes as a result of temperature variations above and below the installation temperature. They expand and contract 4.5 to 5 times more than steel or iron pipe. The extent of the expansion - contraction depends upon the coefficient of linear expansion of piping material. The length of pipe between directional changes, and the temperature differential. The coefficient of thermal expansion (Y) for uPVC is 3.1 x 10-5 in./in./°F.The amount of expansion or contraction can be calculated using the following formula :

There are several ways to compensate for expansion and contraction. The most common methods are :1. Expansion loops which consist of pipe and 90° elbows2. Piston type expansion joints*3. Flexible bends*4. Bellows and rubber expansion joints*

*The manufacturers of these devices should be contacted to determine the suitability of their products for the specific application.

When installing the expansion loop, no rigid or restraining support should be placed within the leg lengths of the loop. The loop should be installed as closely as possible to the mid-point between anchors. Piping support guides should restrict lateral movement and direct axial movement into the loop. Lastly, the pipe and fittings should be solvent cemented together, rather than using threaded connections.

Compensation for expansion and contraction in underground application is normally achieved by snaking the pipe in the trench. Proper trenching and burial procedures must be followed to protect the piping system.

The table below shows recommended offsets and loop lengths for piping up to 2½” nominal size.

EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION

∆ L = Y (T1-T2) x L

∆ L = Dimensional change due to thermal

expansion or contraction (in.)

Y = Expansion coefficient (in./in./ºF)

(T1-T2) = Temperature differential between the

installation temperature and the

maximum or minimum system

temperature, whichever provides the

greatest differential (ºF).

L = Length of pipe run between changes

in direction (ft)

Expansion loops are a simple and convenient way to compensate for expansion and contraction when there is sufficient space for the loop in the piping system. A typical expansion loop design is shown below.The length of leg "R" can be determined by using the following formula to ensure that it is long enough to absorb the expansion and contraction movement without damage. The length of leg "A" should be 1/2 the length of leg "R"

R = 1.44 D ∆ L

R = Expansion loop leg length (ft)

D = Nominal outside diameter of pipe (in).

∆ L = Dimensional change due to thermal

expansion or contraction (in).
