What is Tee 50mm RAKtherm PPRc ?

 

The Tee 50mm RAKtherm PPRc PN 25 is a polypropylene random copolymer fitting used to branch a 50 mm pressure pipe line into three directions for hot and cold-water distribution in plumbing and HVAC water systems.

Description

A 50 mm tee is a three-way socket fitting that allows one main line to continue while creating a branch connection at 90 degrees. In RAKtherm’s product range, the fitting is listed as part of the PP-R accessories for equal tee and reducing tee configurations, with PN 25 indicating a higher-pressure-rated system suitable for demanding service conditions. The material is PP-R 80, which RAKtherm describes as hygienic, corrosion-resistant, chemically resistant, and suitable for potable water.

Key specification

• Material: PP-R 80 polypropylene random copolymer.

• Nominal size: 50 mm.

• Pressure class: PN 25.

• Application temperature range: continuous service from 0°C to 90°C, with short-term peak temperatures up to 100°C.

• Expected service life: minimum 50 years under proper operating conditions.

• Jointing method: fusion welding / heat fusion.

Installation

 Support spacing, expansion allowance, and pressure testing should follow the manufacturer’s installation guidance, especially on longer hot-water runs where thermal expansion matters.

Practical installation points:

• Cut the pipe square and clean the ends.

• Use the correct socket welding die for 50 mm PP-R.

• Heat both fitting and pipe for the specified time from the welding chart.

• Insert fully, hold steady, and allow cooling before loading.

• Pressure test the line after assembly.

Usage in HVAC

For HVAC water supply, this tee is typically used in:

• Cold-water distribution headers.

• Hot-water supply branches.

• Chilled-water auxiliary piping where PP-R is accepted by the design.

• Boiler or water-heating connections.

• Distribution to fixtures, fan-coil water branches, or service loops where plastic piping is specified.
