This document provides information on characteristics and properties of PPRC piping systems. It includes tables showing operational pressures and service life at various temperatures for PN 10, PN 16, and PN 20 pipe ratings. The document also discusses the 4-step socket fusion welding process, supports and spacing for PPRC vs stainless steel pipes, and installation of polymer pipes. Additional sections cover plumbing concerns and benefits of PPRC piping for various stakeholders.

6. Protruded metal on
the periphery Prevents
Circular Displacement
while the Slots made on
the length of insert
prevents Linear
Displacement while the
fitting is Over tightened
by plumber.
PLUMBING CONCERNS
PPR Metal Threaded Fittings
Does the Metal Inserts Slips, rotates if being
Over Tightened By Technician???

7. PLUMBING CONCERNS
 Alterations /
Extensions in
concealed Piping in
PPR is not possible ?
Fusion Welding M/C is
designed Taper in shape
and Portable in
Handling to Reach to
the Repair Work Area
Conveniently

8. PIPE SUPPORTS

9. Proper Supports throught Ducts are very Nessessary
Dos & Don’ts
FIXING PIPE SUPPORTS

10. Dos & Don’ts
UNIONS & THEIR USAGE
UNION PARTS
WITH METAL SCREW & SPIGOT
METAL BODY UNION ASSEMBLY
TO AVOID THREAD SLLEPING IN PLASTIC BODY UNIONS

11. Only when the length of pipe exceeds 5 meteres, it is absolutely
recommended to use expansion pipe segment.
A „U‟ loop as shown in the fig. should be made to adjust the Linear
Expansion.
OR if the space doesn‟t permit an OFFSET can be made to
Compensate Linear Expansion
Dos & Don’t’s
PLUMBING CONCERNS

12. Dos & Don’t’s - Stub End & Union
Always try to use Stub End in place of Union if possible
Stub Ends allow FLEXIBILITY With Higher Joint RELIABILITY than UNIONS
while Facilitates Easy, Convenient INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE

13. Random Co-polymer means random array of
organic structure in Co-polymer family
resulting in Higher Physical Properties
as compared to Block Co-polymer Or
Homopolymer.
Random Co-polymer has
High Viscocity giving Lower MFI
resultinging in Extreme
Temperature Resistance
and also HighPressure and
High Impact Resistance
PP-R thus derived is
Called as……………..
“Polypropylene Random
Co-polymer” (PPR-C)

15. UNIQUE TRIPLE LAYER PLUMBING SYSTEM
The Outer Layer is UV Stabilized PPR-C Layer for External Applications.
The Middle Layer is Plain PPR-C Layer.
The Inside Layer is Anti Microbial PPR-C Layer to prevent breeding of
Microbes in Stagnant Water.

16. BENEFITS TO “SITE ENGINEERS”
LESS PRONE TO THEFT AS LESS RECOVERABLE VALUE
CHOICE AS PER PRESSURE RATINGS PIPES AVAILABLE IN
PN10 “COLD” WATER
PN16 “HOT & COLD” WATER

19. Is it Compatible with Local Metal
Fittings & Valves ???
PLUMBING CONCERNS
 Integrates Well
With Local
Piping System
(BS 6920),
BSP Threads

20. PLUMBING CONCERNS
 Is it easy to maintain
Exact Right Angle of
the Fittings with Pipe
while Welding ?
Yes its very easy by
using the Reference
Coloured Line on
the Pipe and the
Right Angle
Markings on the
Fittings periphery
