What is Turk Plast upvc Elbow 5″
A UPVC Elbow Truk Plast with a 5-inch diameter and Schedule 40 rating is a plumbing fitting that is designed to change the direction of a pipeline, usually at a 90-degree angle. Let’s take a detailed look at this fitting:
-
Technical Specifications
- Standard Compliance: Complies with relevant standards such as ASTM D2466 for Schedule 40 UPVC fittings.
- Pressure Rating: Schedule 40 fittings typically handle pressures up to 450 psi, depending on the diameter and application.
- Temperature Range: Operates effectively within a temperature range of 0??C to 60??C (32??F to 140??F).
Material:
- Un plasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (uPVC) – known for its durability, chemical resistance, and cost-effectiveness in plumbing applications.
Size:
- The Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) refers to the diameter of the pipe that the elbow is designed to connect with is “5”. The actual diameter won’t be exactly 5 inches, but close enough to allow for solvent welding.
- Schedule 40 (Sch 40): This indicates a pressure rating suitable for cold water supply lines and drainage applications.
-
Maintenance Tips
- Regular Inspections: Periodically check the joints and fittings for signs of wear, leaks, or damage.
- System Cleaning: Keep the system free from debris and buildup that could obstruct flow or cause damage.
- Pressure Testing: Conduct regular pressure tests to ensure the integrity of the system.
- Joining:
- Quickly insert the pipes into the elbow with a slight twisting motion to ensure even distribution of the cement.
- Hold the pipes in place for a few seconds until the cement sets.
- Elbow Radius (Centerline to Centerline): Around 5 inches (127mm) – This is the distance between the centerlines of the inlet and outlet on either side of the elbow curve.
- Wall Thickness: Schedule 40 elbows typically have a wall thickness around 0.22 inches (5.6mm).
-
Connection:
- The special PVC cement creates a strong, watertight seal between the elbow and the pipes, designed for solvent welding.
Applications:
- Commonly used in various plumbing and drainage applications, where a change in direction is needed:
- Cold water supply lines (up to a certain pressure)
- Drainage systems (waste vents, etc.)
- Irrigation systems (depending on pressure rating)
