Installation Guidelines
- Preparation:
- Cut pipe squarely and remove burrs.
- Clean pipe and fitting surfaces.
- Push-fit Joint:
- Insert pipe into fitting socket with rubber ring seal.
- Ensure proper alignment and full insertion depth.
- Solvent Joint:
- Apply uPVC solvent cement evenly on pipe and fitting socket.
- Push pipe fully into socket with slight twist.
- Allow curing time (typically 24 hours for full strength).
- Support:
- Provide adequate pipe supports to avoid stress on joints.
- Testing:
- Perform leak test after installation.
Usage
- Drainage & Sewerage:
- Connects branch lines to main soil/waste pipes.
- Plug option allows for future expansion or maintenance access.
- Ventilation:
- Used in vent stacks to maintain airflow and prevent siphoning.
- Pressure Applications:
- Limited use in low-pressure water conveyance; primarily designed for gravity flow systems.
Key Advantages
- Dual jointing system (push-fit or solvent weld) for flexibility.
- Corrosion-resistant compared to metal fittings.
- Smooth internal surface reduces blockages and scaling.
- Lightweight and easy to install.
- Complies with international standards (EN 1329).
Limitations
- Not suitable for high-pressure water supply (use CPVC or PPR for hot water).
- Temperature limit ~60°C restricts use in very hot water or steam lines.
- Primarily for drainage/ventilation, not continuous pressurized systems.
