What is Hydroplast sch 80 upvc Elbow 45* 1-1/2″ ?

 

🔧 Description & Manufacturer

• Brand: Hydroplast – a Pakistani supplier of uPVC SCH‑80 pipes and fittings, distributed by Irfan Traders with sizes from ½″ up to 12″, including elbows, tees, and other fittings

• Material: Un plasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (uPVC or PVC‑U), rigid, lightweight, corrosion- and chemical-resistant.

• Color: Grey.

• Type: 45° equal elbow (changes flow direction by 45° between same-size pipes)

⚙️ Physical Dimensions (Nominal 1½″ SCH‑80)

Based on standard SCH‑80 PVC dimension tables and uprated for uPVC fittings:

• Nominal Size: 1½″ IPS

• Outside Diameter (O.D.): approx. 1.900″ (~48.3 mm)

• Wall Thickness: approx. 0.200″ (~5.0 mm)

• Center‑to‑End (Dimension Z): ~36 mm or ~1.42″

These match typical SCH‑80 dimensions: inner diameter ~1.476″ (~37.5 mm) and weight ~0.71 lb per foot for straight pipe, but elbows slightly heavier by volume.

🧪 Pressure & Temperature Ratings

• Pressure Rating at 23 °C (73 °F): ~32 bar (~470 psi) for 1½″ SCH‑80 pipe; the elbow is rated similarly for high‑pressure water/fluid usage.

• Derating at Elevated Temperatures (PVC data):

  • At 40 °C (~104 °F): ~62% → ~290 psi (~20 bar)

  • At 60 °C (~140 °F): ~31% → ~145 psi (~10 bar)

• Service Temperature Range: 0 °C to ~60 °C (up to max 140 °F), with chemical‑resistance maintained within that range

✅ Standards & Compliance

• ASTM D1784: PVC Type I Cell Class 12454‑B material standard

• ASTM D2467: Socket‑type Schedule 80 PVC fittings

• ASTM D2464: For threaded connection fittings if applicable

• Suitable for potable water, wastewater and industrial fluid systems. Not evaluated for compressed air or gas applications.

🧰 Installation & Usage

• Joint Types:

  • Socket (Slip) ends for solvent‑cement installation.

  • Threaded (FPT) versions available if specified — ensure correct variant at purchase.

• Typical Applications:

  • HVAC fluid systems (water, glycol), high‑pressure irrigation, chemical processing lines, industrial plumbing, water treatment facilities, and HVAC condensate or chilled‑water circuits.

  • Most effective when gradual directional change and lower head‑loss is desired compared to 90° elbows (can reduce turbulence by using two 45° instead of one sharp turn)

• Advantages:

  • Excellent corrosion & chemical resistance; does not rust or scale.

  • Lightweight, easy to cut, weld, and join.

  • Cost‑effective versus metal fittings.

  • Smooth interior surface for minimal frictional loss.

  • Approved for potable water in many jurisdictions (NSF cert)
