Various plastics are rapidly reclaiming numerous areas that were previously dominated by metals. So, pressure pipe polyethylene is several times better than steel and cast iron. Competently laid in communication channels, it does not require maintenance for decades. Excellent resistance to high hydraulic pressure.
Pipe operation areas
Polymer pressure pipes have found the same need, both in the domestic and industrial sectors. The ease of installation and the reliability of the tight connection are another reason to switch to polymer pipes for transferring liquids over short and long distances. The main areas of operation can be distinguished:
- Private houses and apartment buildings.
- Office buildings, including shopping malls.
- Food processing enterprises
- Pharmaceutical and chemical industry.
- Agriculture and irrigation of fields.
Important: polyethylene is not inclined to enter into a chemical bond with ordinary drinking and industrial water. Keeping water in a perfectly clean condition throughout the entire length of the water supply. In addition, many plastics resist physical degradation by acids and alkalis. Much better resistance to hydraulic shocks.
Main technical and operational characteristics
The diameter of pipes produced by the industry, as well as the wall thickness, can vary over a very wide range. The consumer can independently choose the material that best suits the technical needs. But, despite the wide range, polymer products have common technical and operational characteristics:
- extended operating temperature range, from -60 to +80 degrees;
- designed for significant pressure inside the circuit;
- preserve the tightness of the joints for the entire service life;
- there is no biological factor of destruction; The
- s don't need any maintenance.
All accidents associated with the use of polymer pipes are associated with improper operation of communications. It is enough not to exceed the recommended pressure and the pipe line will quickly pay off due to daily operation without the need for its maintenance.
