Key Specifications

Installation Guidelines

Tools Required:

• PPR pipe cutter or saw
• Pipe reamer or scraper (for removing burrs)
• Welding machine (for PPR socket fusion)
• Adjustable wrench or pipe spanner
• Teflon tape or thread sealant (for male thread connection)
• Sandpaper or cleaning cloths

Steps:

1. Preparation:
   • Turn off the water supply and ensure the system is depressurized.
   • Cut the PPR pipe to the required length using a proper cutter. Deburr the edges to ensure a smooth fit.
2. Cleaning:
   • Clean the pipe and fitting surfaces with a PPR cleaner or cloth to remove dirt or moisture.
3. Welding:
   • Use a PPR welding machine (socket fusion) set to the correct temperature (usually 260°C).
   • Insert the pipe and fitting into the welding tool for the specified time (refer to manufacturer guidelines).
   • Remove and quickly join them, holding steady until cool.
4. Thread Connection:
   • Wrap Teflon tape around the male thread clockwise to ensure a tight seal.
   • Hand-tighten the fitting, then use a wrench to secure further (avoid over-tightening to prevent damage).
5. Pressure Testing:
   • After installation, test the system with water pressure (up to 1.5 times the working pressure) to check for leaks.
6. Insulation:
   • For hot water lines, insulate the PPR pipe and fitting to prevent heat loss and Condensation on cold lines.

Safety Notes:

• Always wear protective gear (gloves, goggles) during welding.
• Ensure proper ventilation when using heating tools.
• Follow local plumbing codes and standards in the UAE or your region.

Usage and Applications

• Hot Water Supply: Suitable for delivering hot water in HVAC systems, especially in buildings with centralized heating.
• Cold Water Distribution: Ideal for cold water pipes in plumbing networks.
• HVAC Systems: Used in chilled water, condenser water, and heating system pipelines.
• Compatibility: Works with PPR pipes (PN 20 or PN 25) and can connect to metal valves or fittings via male thread.
• Advantages:
  • Corrosion-resistant and long-lasting.
  • Smooth interior for low friction and reduced pressure loss.
  • Eco-friendly and recyclable.

Additional Information

• Procurement: Since imported from the UAE, check with local distributors or suppliers for availability. Ensure compliance with local standards (e.g., UAE’s ES/4502 or equivalent).
• Maintenance: Regular inspection for leaks or damage, especially in hot water applications.
• Pricing: Prices vary by supplier and location; contact UAE-based exporters or local agents for quotes.
