What is Popular Pipe 1-1/4″ E Class ?

 

Engineers design the 1-1/4″ UPVC (Un plasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) Class E pipe for high-pressure applications, such as HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) water supply systems. Below is a detailed description and information about this type of pipe:

Description:

• Material: Un plasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC)
• Class: E (indicates the pipes pressure rating)
• Pressure Rating: Typically rated to handle 12.5 bar (1250 kPa) of pressure, making it suitable for high-pressure water supply systems.
• Standard: Complies with relevant standards such as BS 3505 or ISO, ensuring performance in high-pressure environments.
• Color: Usually gray or white, depending on the manufacturer.

Installation Considerations:

• Jointing Methods: Typically joined using solvent welding for a permanent, leak-proof connection. Alternatively, rubber ring joints can be used for easy disassembly and reassembly if needed.
• Support: Proper pipe supports are necessary to prevent sagging or stress points, especially in HVAC installations where temperature changes can cause expansion and contraction.
• Thermal Expansion: Considerations for thermal expansion should be made, especially in hot water systems, using appropriate expansion joints or flexible couplings to accommodate movement.

Advantages:

• Durability: Long lifespan due to its resistance to corrosion, scaling, and most chemicals, making it a reliable option for water systems.
• Energy Efficiency: The smooth bore reduces pumping energy requirements in HVAC systems, contributing to lower operational costs.
• Cost-Effective: UPVC pipes are generally less expensive than metal pipes, offering a cost-effective solution for high-pressure applications.
• Environmentally Friendly: UPVC is recyclable, and its long life cycle helps reduce the environmental impact over time.
• Minimal Pressure Drop: The smooth inner surface allows for efficient water flow with minimal pressure loss over long distances, an essential feature in HVAC water circulation.
