Introduction to plastics
History
As early as 1838 Viktor Regnault succeeded in producing polyvinylchloride in a laboratory by exposing
vinylchloride to the sun.
In 1912 Fritz Klatte discovered the fundamentals for the
practical production of PVC.
During theWorld WarI,plastics, which were still new,
had to replace other materials falling into short supply.
They were then sometimes overspecified with respect
to their application. Therefore, plastics needed to be improved. It was necessary to scrutinise the internal structure of these new materials closely.
Only in 1938 did the production of plastics in any, significantvolume begin, when the numerous application
possibilities had been recognised.
Raw materials for the manufacture of plastics are natural compounds, such as cellulose, coal, petroleum and
natural gas. In a refinery, petroleum is separated into
several components by means of distillation. Grouped
into evaporisation ranges, gas, benzene, petroleum,
gaseous oil, and as a residue bitumen are obtained during distillation.
All components consist of hydrocarbons which only differ in size and form of the molecules. The most important component for plastics production is crude benzene.
In a heat cracking process this crude benzene is broken
down into ethylene, propylene, butylene and other hydrocarbons and is then modified.

Thermoplastics are plastics with simple or branched filamentary molecules (macromolecules) which have an inordinate or partially ordinate structure. They distort during heating, melt and solidify again on cooling. This process can be repeated at all times. They can be plastically deformed, distended and recovered. Due to these
properties, thermoplastics are suited for injection-moulding, extrusion and fusion.
Plastic deformation is the processing of a material by
means of e. g. injection moulding, extrusion etc.
Distension is the longitudinal or longitudinal and
transversal stretching of amorphous molecule chains to
improve the material properties.
The recovery ability is the memory behaviour of a material where the material is melted by heating and recover again in the original order during the cooling phrase.
Polyolefines belong to the semi-crystalline thermoplastics group. Compared with amorphous thermoplastics
(e. g. PVC-U, PVC-C) they show less tensile strength,

Thermosets
Elastomers
Elastomers are rubber-elastic plastics, also called "synthetic caoutchouc. In contrast to thermosets, the network has a large mesh width. By means of vulcanisation
aids the polymer chains are cross-linked. The amount of
the cross-links, determines the hardness (the hardness
is indicated in Shore degrees of hardness) of the rubber.
The elastomer is very elastic, can not be melted, is not
fusible, can be deformed, but not reshaped.
Elastomers are for example
NR Natural rubber
EPDM Ethylene propylene rubber
CR Chloroprene rubber
SI Silicone rubber
FPM Fluorocarbon rubber

Processing of plastics
Plastics are processed differently depending on the material and application. Some common methods are:
Extrusion
Compression moulding
Injection moulding
Foaming
Extrusion
Driving motor
Material supply
Extruder
Plasticizing worm
Die
Calibration device
Cooling tank
Take-off unit
Injection moulding
Compression moulding
Thermosetting material is poured into the open compression mould in powder form. Under the impact of the
mould pressure and heat, it then chemically reacts and
solidifies to the desired finished part.
Pressure cylinder

Press
Ejection

Granular plastic containing a blowing agent is injected into the mould, expanded by means of hot steam,
cooled with water and ejected from the foam mould as
an extremely light weight part. Water absorption is impossible as all pores are closed.

Plastics constitute only a small percentage of the entire crude oil usage. But crude oil resources are limited.
Already today we have to fall back upon raw materials
which can be recycled and extend alternative energy
sources. In this context we talk about re-usable raw materials.
All working processes need energy (heat, pressure, motor power). In comparison with metals, manufacturing
plastics requires less energy. The production of 1 dm

Planning and installation of piping systems is a true engineering task, necessitating the organisation of a multitude of requirements and goals. For piping installations,
simple, critical and aggressive media in each case require suitable materials. The idea is to especially cover
the requirements of functionality, operating safety, optimal service life, environmental conditions and adequate
profitability. Included in this are overall ecological, technical and economic assessments. High-performance
plastics for piping installations, such as those, which
you can obtain from our company, are proven and implementable where special endurance problems in connection with the media need solving.
Environmental protection is an important responsibility
affecting us all. Each one of us, businesses and industrial concerns alike have to meet this great challenge.
We at Georg Fischer actively pursue these responsibilities in the development of our products as well as for investments in our production facilities. In 1992 our company was distinguished within the scope of a competition for ecologically sound technology by the Environmental Protection Minister.
Our manufacturing plant is systematically analysed in
accordance with strict criteria for improving environmental protection and updated accordingly. In this sector we
have had outstanding success, which our customers
can themselves appraise on-site.
Political approaches or one-sided evaluations of individual aspects of materials, products and processes for
piping installations do not lead to intelligent solutions.
Only comprehensive and objective as well as comparative balancing of accounts can bring us forward at any
one time. In this respect, ecological balance is especially useful.
In the following we present an ecological balance for
plastic piping installations:
Energy requirements
Impact on:
- hygienically safe
- air
- water
- disposal
Profit:
- economic
- technical
- ecological
Active
Applications
Product use
- long service life
- proven in practice
- good recycling characteristics
- high chemical resistance
properties
- simple handling
- negligible piping losses
- cost-effective
If one analyses the individual positions of such an ecological balance, it can be demonstrably established that
plastic piping systems are not only economical, but also
technically and especially ecologically profitable when
compared with other material systems.
Following many years of research, Prof. Georg Menges
has concluded that: Consistent environmental protection would intrinsically require that crude oil be first processed to plastic for use as commodity goods wherever
possible and only then be allowed to be burned.
We have inhouse a PVC-U sample pipe that was installed in Hamburg in 1937.The PVC pipes were joined
using bonding agents. The system was operated at 4 to
6 bar. The material was used to supply drinking water to
the public and was, without exception, successful. Even
after this long operational period, there was no evidence
of incrustation or deposits.
Currently PVC, besides polyethylene, is the most important material of consideration which, because of its versatility, is not achieved by any other raw material. Piping components of PVC have attained such great significance that not using them in many applications is no
longer imaginable. Even in the case of public criticism
from various sources, assertions and facts have been
known to deviate greatly from one another.
During PVC manufacture, pool concentrations of all
dangerous intermediate products are abided by or only handled in closed systems, allowing the exclusion of
risks to employees. During PVC processing, all effective industrial safety regulations are clearly improved
upon and, with lowered energy requirements, the impact on the environment is additionally reduced. Owing
to their chemical stability, PVC products are completely
non-toxic in normal use, are suitable for use with food,
and are used in applications involving blood conservation and dialysis. Tin is used as a stabiliser for our PVC
materials so that risks associated with heavy metals are
not a consideration.
It is frequently claimed that during fires additional hazards from PVC exist for those in the immediate area.
Intensive fire testing has been carried out with PVC.
Building fires can also set fire to the difficult-to-ignite
and self-extinguishing PVC. PVC, however, does not
contribute to the spread of the fire. In cases of fire, the
fumes are always toxic, regardless of the type of material burning. The greatest danger in a fire arises from the
production of highly poisonous carbon monoxide gas.
From an insurance viewpoint, PVC is handled in the
29
same manner as other customary construction materials. Dioxins/furans have been shown to be produced in
all combustion processes. PVC components have even
been shown to play a subordinate role.
If all the positions of the above ecological balance are
taken into account, then the conclusion is that currently there are no acceptable substitutions for PVC piping
installations. PVC and the other high-performance plastics have many positive and few critical characteristics
from an ecological viewpoint. If you would like more information about these considerations, our specialists
would be happy to be of service to you.

General
Polypropylene is a thermoplastic belonging to the polyolefin group.It is a semi-crystalline material. Its density is lower than that of other well-known thermoplastics.
Its mechanical characteristics, its chemical resistance
and especially its relatively high heat deflection temperature have made polypropylene one of the most important materials usedin piping installations today.
PP is formed by the polymerisation of propylene (C3H6)
using Ziegler-Natta catalysts.
There are three different types which are conventionally
supplied for piping installations:
Isotactic PP Homopolymeride (PP-H)
PP block co-polymeride (PP-B)
PP random co-polymeride (PP-R).
Because of its higher stiffness PP-H is preferred for industrial applications. The more flexible PP-R is used
predominantly in sanitary applications but also in numerous industrial applications. PP-B is mainly used
for sewage piping systems because of its high impact
strength especially at low temperatures and its lower resistance to creep at elevated temperatures.
Most of the grades are offered with nucleating agents
(crystallization seeds), because PP crystallizes at least
10 times slower than PE. This way, we achieve lower internal stress and a finer structure. We differentiate between and nucleation. Nucleation is realized
by merely adding ppm (parts per million) of nucleating
agents.

Combustion behaviour
Polypropylene is a flammable plastic. The oxygen index amounts to 19%. (Materials that burn with less
than 21% of oxygen in the air are considered to be
flammable).
PP drips and continues to burn without soot after removing the flame. Basically, toxic substances are released by all burning processes. Carbon monoxide is
generally the combustion product most dangerous to
humans. When PP burns, primarily carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and water are formed.
The following classifications in accordance with differing
combustion standards are used:
According to UL94, PP is classified as HB (Horizontal Burning) and according to DIN 53438-1 as K2. According to DIN 4102-1 and EN 13501-1, PP is listed as
B2 (normally flammable). In the French classification of
building materials, polypropylene corresponds to M3 (of
average flammable rating).
According to ASTM D 1929, the self-ignition temperature is 360 C.
Suitable fire-fighting agents are water, foam or carbon
dioxide.

General
PVC-U is very resistant to weathering. Long-term influence of direct sunlight as well as the effect of wind and
rain damage the material only superficially. Despite its
very good weathering resistance regarding ultraviolet
radiation, PVC-U loses some of its impact strength. In
extreme applications it can be advantageous to protect
the material from direct sunlight exposure. For suitable
protection methods please consult your GF subsidiary.
Application limits
38
The application limits of the material depend on the embrittlement and softeningtemperatures and on the nature and the expected service life of the application.
Please refer to the respective p-T- diagrams for details
on application temperatures and pressures.
Combustion behaviour
The high chlorine content of PVC-U causes an advantageous combustion behaviour. Self-ignition resulting from
temperature influences occurs only at 450 C. PVC-U
burns when exposed to an open flame, but extinguishes
immediately after removing the flame.
Electrical properties
PVC-U is, as all unmodified thermoplastics, non-conductive. This means that no electrochemical corrosion
takes place in PVC-U systems. On the other hand,
these non-conductive characteristics have to be taken
into account because an electrostatic charge can develop in the piping. It is especially important to take this
condition into account in areas where explosive gases can appear. There are various methods available to
avoid the occurrence of electrostatic charges on polymer piping systems. Please contact your GF representative for more informationregarding these methods.
The specific volume resistance is >10 cm.

The application limits of the material depend on the embrittlement and softeningtemperatures and on the nature and the expected service life of the application.
Please refer to the respective p-T- diagrams for details
on application temperatures and pressures.
Combustion behaviour
Due to its high chlorine content, PVC-C shows an exceptionally good combustion behaviour without the addition of flame retardants.
Under the influence of temperature, PVC-C self-ignites
only above 400C. PVC-C burns when exposed to an
open flame, but immediately extinguishes when the
flame is removed.
The oxygen index amounts to 60 %. (Materials that burn
with less than 21 % of oxygen in the air are considered
to be flammable).
PVC-C thus also falls in the best flammability class
V0 according to UL94, and in the B1 (difficult to ignite)
building material class with wall thicknesses 3.2 mm
respective B2 (normally flammable) with wall thicknesses >3.2 mm according to DIN 4102-1. Smoke development is also low.
Since the combustion of PVC-C produces hydrogen
chloride, which forms a corrosive acid in connection with
water, immediate cleaning of areas susceptible to corrosion with water containing detergent is necessary after
a fire. Danger to personnel from HCl is minimal because
of its pungent odour even in very low concentrations (15 ppm), allowing an early escape from toxic combustion gases, mainly from the odourless carbon monoxide. Concerning the choice of fire-fighting agents, water,
powder-type extinguishing agents or foam are recommended.
Electrical properties
PVC-C is, like all unmodified thermoplastics, non-conductive. This means that no electrochemical corrosion

Combustion behaviour
PVDF displays an exceptionally good combustion behaviour without the addition of fire protection additives.
Material decomposition begins at 380C.
The oxygen index amounts to 44 %. (Materials that burn
with less than 21 % of oxygen in the air are considered
to be flammable).
PVDF thus also falls in the best flammability class V0
according to UL94, and in the building materials class
B1 (difficult to ignite) according to DIN 4102-1. Smoke
development is also moderate.
GF PVDF products show suchexcellent fire safety behaviourthat they are accepted and listed by Factory
Mutual foruse in clean rooms (FM 4910).
Since the combustion of PVDF produces hydrogen fluoride, which forms a corrosive acid in connection with
water,immediate cleaning of areas susceptible to corrosion with water containing detergent is necessary after a fire. Additional combustion products are carbon
monoxide and carbon dioxide. Concerning the choice of
fire-fighting agents, sand or powder-type extinguishing
agents are recommended.
Electrical properties
PVDF is a good electrical insulator. Because of the possible electrostatic charges, caution is recommended
when using PVDF in applications where combustion or
explosion dangers exist.
The specific volume resistance is >10 cm; the specific
surface resistance is 10 .

In order to choose pipes and fittings which are compatible in their Pressure stability, they are assigned to
various standardised pressure categories. The pressure
rating (PN) of these has been widely accepted. Unlike
the SDR or Pipe series S, this categorisation does
not depend primarily on size or shape, but on the pipe
material's behaviour in the Stress-rupture test, and
on the applicable Safety factor. The pressure rating can be regarded as a value of the pressure (in bar)
which the pipe can certainly withstand, at 20 C for the
duration of 50 years, with water as theflow medium.
PN P max (50a / 20 C / water)
Pipes of a given pressure rate (like those of a given
Pipe series S) can withstand the same pressure - regardless of their dimensions. There is, however, only an
approximate relationship between the pressure rating
PN and the Pipe series number S, which is given by the
following formula:
S per(50a, 20 C, water) / PN 0.5(d/e - 1)

The absorption of water by polymers is a form of diffusion. The amount of water taken up depends on the surface area.
The amount also depends on the sorts and quantities of
additives, fillers and strengthening agents contained in
the polymer.
In addition, the absorption of moisture by a polymer
is determined by its chemical composition, i. e. by the
presence of certain Functional groups.
Water (chemically a highly polar compound) can have a
considerable influence on a plastic's mechanical properties, its dimensions, electrical insulation, dielectricloss factor and appearance. Polyamides, for instance,
can take up large quantities of water (up to 10 % of
their weight), and the impact resistance can be 20 times
higher in the saturated than in the unsaturated state.
The precise determination of the absorption of water
and moisture has to be performed on a sample of a given shape. The graph of the sample's weight is traced as
a function of time, until there is no longer any increase
in weight. It is advisable to use a logarithmic scale for
the time axis.
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are additives which reduce the combustibility and the inflammability of plastics. They have
their effect physically (by cooling, covering or diluting) or
chemically (in the gaseous state by removing those energetic radicals which promote combustion; in the solid
state by providing a protective layer of carbon or ashes).
The most important flame retardants are named under
the heading Flammability
Flame retardants are not able to prevent burning. They
only reduce the combustibility. Without flame contact,
they cause the fire to die out.
Volatiles
Vessel formula
Creep
As plastics are viscoelastic, they show both an immediate (elastic) and a delayed (viscous) reaction to mechanical loads. (The latter is due to flow processes involving individual molecules).
In this way, thermoplastic components can change their
shape. They "creep", i. e. they slowly give way to the
load. Creep in plastics is strongly influenced by temperature.

Long-term characteristics
The long-term characteristics of plastic pipes are determined by many factors. There are the operating conditions such as flow medium, temperature, operating
pressure, and external factors, as well as the pressure
for which the pipes have been designed.
Of course, it is very important that the right piping material is chosen for the given operating conditions. In the
applicable lists of standards - e. g. under the heading
"permitted pressure" - one can find details of the longterm characteristics of pipes.
Plastics and metals differ fundamentally in their atomic and molecular composition and in the nature of their
chemical bonds. This is illustrated, for example, by observing that thermal expansion in plastics is about ten
times greater than in metals. The coefficient of linear
expansionrepresents a material's degree of thermal
expansion and is measured in compliance with DIN
53752. It denotes the extension per unit length of a
plastic component for 1 K (= 1 C) rise in temperature.
The thermal expansion (or contraction) of piping can be
calculated using the formula:
l =L T
l = thermal expansion (or contraction) in mm
L = length of piping in m
T= difference in K (= C ) between reference temperature of piping (e. g. at installation) and temperature in
use

Liner pipes
Liner pipes are composite pipes made of a thermoplastic (PE, PP, PVC-U, PVC-C, PVDF and PPS) inside
and FRP outside. The so-called inliner (the thermoplastic inner part) makes the pipe chemically resistant,
the outer FRP composite provides mechanical strength.

tives and thermosetting materials are metallised. Inprocesses using electrolytic deposition, it is necessary (after cleaning and roughening) to provide the plastic with
a conductive coating. Components made of ABS are
particularly good for metallization using electrolytic deposition.
Surface properties
Surface resistance
The resistance of the surfaces of raw materials and finished products is an important parameter for plastic
pipes installed in so-called Explosion areas. The surface resistance of such pipes has to be 10 . As plastics have very good innate electrical insulation characteristics, the pipes have to incorporate conductive fillers
such as carbon black, carbon fibres or conductive polymers.

The optical properties of a material depend on its interaction with light. "Normal", i. e. visible light consists of
electromagnetic waves with wavelengths between 400
nm and 800 nm. A frequency can be assigned to each
wavelength.
In substances which are neither magnetic nor electrically conductive, i. e. in nearly all polymers, the interaction between the material and visible light is reduced approximately to an interaction between an electromagnetic field and the electrons in the material. As a result, we
obtain a number of fundamental, physical phenomena
which characterise the optical properties of the material.
Refraction of light
Light incident on a transparent substance is bent, according to certain laws, when it enters or leaves the
substance. Examples of this phenomenon are the use
of a prism to break up white light into its component
colours, or a rainbow. A so-called refractive index n
of the substance has been defined (which depends to
some extent on the wavelength). Complex electrodynamical considerations show the refractive index of
most polymers to be n = 1.5 0.2, a value which, on
account of the similar structures of all polymers (long
chains of carbon atoms), does not vary much. Large lateral units and in particular Functional groups do,
however, lead to deviations from the value. The refractive index also becomes larger with higher degrees of
crystallization.
Reflection of light
At the boundaries of a polymer (e. g. at its surfaces),
light is reflected. An example of this phenomenon is the
total internal reflection of light in fibre-optic cables. Otherwise, more light is reflected and less refracted when
the angle of incidence of the light becomes greater, and
when the substance has a higher refractive index.
A material's gloss (sheen) arises as a consequence
of a substance's ability to reflect light. It is the ratio of
the reflection by a sample of the material to that (under identical conditions of light incidence) by a standardised material.
A material's glitter originates in its gloss and arises
from the presence of stronger light reflections for particular incident angles and/or particular contrasts in
colour and intensity.
Dependent on the refractive index, up to 95 % of perpendicularly incident light (minimum reflection) can
enter a polymer sample. Such a degree of transparencis, however, seldom reached because of additional
scattering and Absorption, both of which weaken
the intensity of the light on its way through the polymer. For a given sample, the so-called transmission is
the ratio of the intensity of the transmitted light to that
of the incident light. One differentiates between transparent bodies (transmission > 90 %) and translucent
bodies (transmission< 90 %). In the latter case, thin
bodies appear transparent.
Scattering of light
The above is valid for optically homogeneous systems.
Inhomogeneities (such as impurities - and in emulsions)
lead to further effects in the interaction with light.
Among these are light-scattering phenomena in which
a part of the light is dispersed in all directions. An example of this phenomenon is the weakening of the
light from automobile headlights in fog. In this case,
light is scattered by tiny drops of water. The scattering of light in crystal lattices make crystalline and partly crystalline polymers appear to be not transparent as in polyethylene, polypropylene and polyphenyl sulphide. Amorphous polymers, on the other hand, are
transparent (provided they contain no colouring), for
example polycarbonate, polyvinyl chloride, polymethyl
methacrylate (Plexiglas) and polysulfone. The phenomena can be illustrated very nicely by stretching an
amorphous sample (e. g. of polystyrene) to reorientate its molecules ( Stress-whitening ).
A body which scatters light appears to be opaque if
there are localised variations of the refractive index
and/or variations in the molecular orientation (in nonisotropic structures) - and if the inhomogeneous parts
are larger than the wavelength of the light used.

A substance's oxygen index is the minimum concentration of O2 in a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen which just
sustains its combustion. The higher the need of oxygen
is, the lower shouldthe combustibility be. Use of the index in judging fire hazards is a matter of controvers.
Shear strength
Shear strength is the ability of a substance to withstand the stress as a result of two parts of a body being
pushed or pulled in sucha way that they slide relative to
one another. The shear strength is of particular interest
in parts which have been cemented together. It is determined by increasing the shear force applied to a simple overlapping joint until it breaks. According toEN ISO
9311-2, the shearing strength is a quantity applicable to
the entire joint.
In the impact test, the energy needed to break or deform a sample is measured by letting a pendulum with
known kinetic energy (calculated from the corresponding potential energy = weight x distance fallen) collide
against the sample. The impact resistance is the work
(energy) per unit area of the critical cross-section (kJ/
m) needed to break the sample. It is determined, for
example, in the flexural impact test, which can be performed in two different ways:
1.Charpy's method: The impact occurs at the centre of
the sample, which stands on two supports.
2.Izod's method: The sample is held at one end while
the impact occurs at the other end.
The notch impact resistance is measured using a sample with notches.
Apparent density
The apparent density is the quotient obtained by dividing the mass of a powder or granulated substance used
in moulding, by its volume. It is given in g/ml (=g/cm)
and is measured by letting the substance trickle freely
through a standardised funnel into a beaker of a given
diameter. It is used to control the structure of powder or
granulated moulding compounds.

Safety factors are important, for example, in determining a pipe's required dimensions, its pressure rating or
its anticipated service life.

plastic articles are immersed in the substances in question, hairlines and cracks are produced which depend
on internal strains and on external forces.
The following table shows some of the substances
which are particularly likely to produce hairlines and
cracks. The combinations of raw material and medium
are frequently used for testing purposes, i. e. for determining the level of internal stress in products made of
the given plastics. It is important that the suitability ofa

In a way these phenomena, which are observed in metals and in plastics, represent physico-chemical action.
In many cases, the inducing chemical reagent is simply
moisture.
For the phenomena to occur, stress ( Internal stress)
has to be present. It is of no consequence whether they
are caused by the manufacturing process, or by external influences (which are somewhat under the usual
limits of tensile strength). Hairlines and cracks appear
perpendicular to the direction of tensile stress. In many
plastics the effects are worsened by the substances
with which they are used, particularly by surface-active substances. The effect of these substances may be
due to impurities, or to constituents with low molecular
weight being dissolved out of the plastic. They could be
due to gradual swelling processes which enable the relaxation of locally frozen (internal) stress, resulting in the
formation of the observed hairlines/crazes.
It is certain, however, that the formation of stress-induced hairlines and cracks is accelerated considerably
by raising the temperature. If damaging (surface-active) substances act for longer periods of time (and possibly with internal or external stresses), hairlines can
penetrate through the walls - becoming cracks which
lead to the complete destruction of the pipe. Example:
This effect can be seen very nicely if a piece of unannealed PSU piping is put into acetone. Even after a
short time, hairlines followed by strong cracking can be
observed. Note: The expressions 'stress-induced corrosion', 'stress-induced cracking' and 'crazes' are sometimes used interchangeably. 'Stress-induced corrosion'
is, however, usually the designation for the formation
of hairlines on account of the chemical attack of a flow
medium on a pipe (i. e. it is a process involving both
the production of new and the breaking of old chemical
bonds).

Thermal stability
The following thermoanalytical methods are used in investigations of the structures of polymers:
differential thermoanalysis (DTA)
differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)
thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)
dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA)
dilatometry
Differential thermoanalysis (DTA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are based on the same principle.
In both methods the test sample and a reference sample are heated (or cooled) simultaneously. By doing this,
the temperature difference between the samples (DTA)
and the difference between the specific temperatures
(DSC) are measured.
Because the DTA graphs are, ultimately, used to calculate the specific heats, and because all normally obtainable, modern equipment is of the DSC type, we will only discuss the DSC method. Thermograms are obtained
which show at which temperatures the processes are
endothermic (energy absorbing) or exothermic (energy
releasing). The processes can, for example, be the formation or the melting of crystals respectively. They can
also be Glass transitions in which overheating or undercooling is observed. Further examples of the application of DSC to polymers are the analysis of impurities,
the determination of the degree of cross-linkage, and
the examination of thermal stability. If a semi-crystalline
sample with unknown structure is melted in a DSC apparatus, the resulting thermogram gives information on
its crystalline structure and its degree of crystallinity before treatment.
DSC examinations of amorphous polymers enable
an analysis of their behaviour at Glass transition
. They also reveal equilibrium disturbances such as
the quenching of amorphous thermoplastic material.
Both DSC and DTA are very important polymer material tests, which give the user a good general view of
the polymer's structure and condition. Hence, DSC is a
valuable tool for quality assurance and for polymer research and development.
In TGA a polymer sample's change in mass is determined resulting from the application of a given temperature programme in a given gas atmosphere (N2, O2, air).
The graph of the experimental results reveals the reduction in weight when the temperature is raised.
Using DMA, it is possible to determine both storage and
loss moduli (E', E") of a polymer sample for a given temperature and at a given frequency of an applied sinusoidal vibration. The Relaxation modes(e. g. Glass
transition point) of various polymers can be analysed
using this technique.

count. For each material, many categories are possible (depending on wall thickness). The correct categorisation of a material corresponds to the component's
thinnest wall cross-section. UL 94 categories are only
comparable and meaningful if the applicable wall thicknesses are given.
UL 94 prescribes the following groups - in which the
best category is the last:

In the Vicat test, measurements of a plastic's softening temperature are made. The flattened end of a round
needle of area 1 mm is pressed (with predetermined
force and at steadily increasing ambient temperature)
onto the surface of a sample of the material. The softening point (VST = Vicat Softening Temperature) is
reached when the needle penetrates 1mm into the sample. Practicable alternatives are:
Method A with an applied force of 10N .
Method B with an applied force of 50N (ISO 306)
In each case the temperature can be raised by 50 C or
by 120 C per hour. The test conditions are called A50,
A120, B50 or B120

Stress-whitening
These headings cover the resistance of a material to atmospheric exposure, e. g. to temperature and temperature fluctuations, atmospheric oxygen, ozone, humidity,
UV radiation, environmental pollution (sulphur dioxide,
nitrogen oxides) and impact by hailstones.
These factors can lead to a radical change in a
polymer's basic properties, including its colour stability.
Only some polymers are sufficiently resistant to degradation by light and by weathering. Many products (e. g.
PE-HD black) have to be mixed with active carbon black
- which still has the best stabilising effect against light
and weathering. Quantities of 2 % to 4 % are usual. Atmospheric exposure can cause changes in a plastic's
appearance (sheen, colour, hairlines), chemical composition and handling properties. Chemical ageing,

Tensile test
In the tensile test, a sample (or component) is forcefully extended, in the direction of its longitudinal axis until it
reaks.
The following values can be obtained from the curve of
tensile stress plotted against elongation:
tensile strength at maximum load = greatest stress
sustained (N/mm)
tensile strength at break = stress at breaking point (N/
mm)
tensile strength at yield = first relative maximum (N/
mm) of the curve
percentage extensions correspond to the named

Broadly speaking, absorption is a "sucking-up" or "taking-in" process. Examples: Plastics can absorb solvents
which cause Swelling. Electromagnetic energy (e.
g. visible light) can be absorbed by a material and be
changed to heat, or give rise to effects such as fluorescence, splitting of molecules, and potential differences
due to the separation of electric charges (solar cells).

Aliphatic compounds
The nucleus contains protons, each of which is nearly 2000 times as heavy as an electron, and carries as
much positive electricity as an electron's negative elementary charge. As all atoms contain the same number of electrons as protons, they are electrically neutral. This number is characteristic of what is called an
element. Example: the element oxygen has 8 protons
and therefore also 8 electrons. The elements are listed
systematically in the so-called periodic table of the elements.
Amorphous/semi-crystalline
When thermoplastic polymers solidify, their molecular chains are more or less of an even structure. The
molecules of a crystalline substance are spatially or-
The continued division of a material leads to the smallest particles which can exist alone and independent
from each other. These are the material's atoms. Nowadays about 300 different variants (so-called nuclides)
are known. Each atom contains a characteristic number of electrons (carriers of negative electrical charge)
and a nucleus. The electrons surround the nucleus like
a shell or cloud and arefound at different distances
from the nucleus. They are, therefore, not all equally
easy to remove. In most chemical reactions, only the
atom's electrons are involved - usually the outer ones, i.
e. those electrons at the greatest distance from the nucleus.

Important notes:
All chlorine compounds with positive oxidation states
(oxidation numbers) are, to a greater or lesser degree, strongly oxidizing agents (e. g. hypochlorites,
chlorites). The use, for example, of the polyolefins
(PP and PE) as piping for these substances must always be discussed carefully with our customers. At
our company, we have considerable expertise in dealing with these and similar matters. Our long, unusually
comprehensive experience in the planning and installation of chemical plants makes us confident that we
can solve your problems in such matters - in consultation with you.
When chlorine is passed through water, it is partly
changed into chlorides and hypochlorites. The latter
decompose slowly, releasing oxygen. This, in part, is
how swimming pools are disinfected. At higher temperatures, hypochlorites decompose into chlorides
and chlorates.
The COD (German: CSB = Chemischer Sauerstoffbedarf) this value quantifies the oxidizable substances
contained in water. It indicates a volume-related measure of oxygen whichisequivalent to this oxidant potassium dichromate for the oxidative breakdown of organic
substances.
Compounding
This is the concept of putting Additives into polymers. It includes making the component parts of the
necessary mixtures homogeneous. Example: some
polymer mixtures are compounded at our company using our own, well-established formulas for the manufacture of pipes.

Disinfection
Disinfection is the elimination of pathogenic (i. e. disease-causing) micro-organisms in certain situations (e.
g. the removal of one particular type of germ). Disinfection, in contrast to Sterilisation, is a partial, not an
absolute process.
Disinfectant
Dissociation
59
This concept arises in connection with Compounding and is the name of a particular quality of mixtures of
plastics and additives. Dry blends are so well mixed (homogenized) that the mixture can be used directly in an
extruder or in an injection-moulding machine.
Elastomers
Electrolytes
Electrolyte is the collective term for chemical compounds which, in solution or in the melted state, conduct
electricity. One distinguishes between strong and weak
electrolytes.
Enzymes
Flame retardants
Protection from flames can be improved by using shielding layers or by the admixture of flame retardants (as
Additives or in the monomer). The way in which the latter work is only known in a few cases. The choice of retardant is, therefore, usually empirically based.
Underlying effects:
(i) oxygen is excluded by the production of nonflammable gases, and
(ii) the flames are "poisoned" by Radicals.
Examples: when a polycarbonate, PEEK or PEI decomposes, it gives off carbon dioxide and water, which
smother flames. Flame retardants containing halogens
(bromine or chlorine) decompose in heat, producing
halogen radicals. These combine with the radicals produced by the combustion (of the polymer) poisoning the
flames (halon fire extinguishers). In a similar way, antimony (III) oxide (Sb4O6) functions as a "radical grabber" by reacting with halogen compounds. (This antimony oxide is the flame retardant in PP-s and in PSU
"UDEL 1725".) Note the difference between combustion
inhibitors [effect (i)] and flame-retardants [effect (ii)].
60
Fluorinated hydrocarbons
Examples:
Fluorotrichloromethane CCI3F = Freon 11
Chlorodifluoromethane CHCIF2 = Freon 22
When Freons are used in fire extinguishers, they are
called halonsABCD (A, B, C and D being the number of
carbon, fluorine, chlorine and bromine atoms respectively.)
Because of their volatility and high chemical stability,
Freons of low molecular weight reach the upper atmosphere, where they cause decomposition of the ozone
layer. For this reason the use of Freons has been progressively reduced world-wide, or even forbidden.
Fluoropolymers
Fillers
Fillers are special Additives. They are additional materials which increase the mass or volume of a polymer
(making it cheaper), or produce a desired change of
properties.
Examples: added glass fibres (GF) or synthetic and carbon fibres (CF) improve a plastic's mechanical properties. Added chalk, quartz and mica are used, for example, to increase a polymer's density and to improve its
handling properties in an extruder. Note the difference
between glass fibres (GF) and glass-reinforced plastics
( FRP), between carbon fibres (CF) and carbon fibrereinforced plastics (CFP)!

(ii) External lubricants should not have much Affinity with the plastic. In processing they have to leave the
body of the polymer, moving towards the boundary surfaces, where they build a slippery film between the machine and the polymer melt. However, a certain affinity is indeed required so that the lubricants are not deposited permanently on the tools used. Examples: waxes and long-chained fatty acids.
Homogeneous
Properties: in the simplest case, esters are formed by
the reaction of acids with alcohols. The ester group is
somewhat sensitive to acids, to alkali solutions and to
water. Esters find diverse chemical applications - as basic, intermediate and final products.
Examples: depending on the length of their molecules,
esters are called fats or oils. Waxes are the esters of alcohols and carboxylic acids with longer chains. Esters
of low molecular weight are known as fruit flavouring.

Hydrophobic
"Hydrophobic" is the opposite of "hydrophilic". ( Surfactants) A substance, usually organic, is said to be hydrophobic if it is water repellent, if it does not dissolve in
polar solvents (such as water) or if it does not mix with
polar materials. The substance's hydrophobic property is usually associated with the presence of unpolar
aliphatic chains ( -[CH2]-) in its molecules. Example: one
end of a Surfactant molecule is hydrophobic. The
other end is hydrophilic.

Ion
Ion exchanger
An ion exchanger is an important device used in chemical processes such as various chromatography procedures and in demineralizing water. It consists of a
specially prepared synthetic resin, e. g. one based on
polystyrol. The resin contains Functional groups
which (depending on their type) exchange either their
positive or negative ions with those of a medium flowing
past.

Carbon
The element carbon, chemical symbol C, has the allotropes, diamond, graphite, and so-called "amorphous"
forms (like soot and active carbon). Each variety of
these forms consists of finely crystalline graphite. Carbon atoms, unlike other atoms, are able to combine with
each other in practically limitless ways to form chains
and rings. The resulting multitude of compounds is the
subject matter of -->Organic chemistry.
Carbon atoms each have four valency electrons, i. e.
electrons which participate in chemical bonding. Examples: a carbon atom can have four single bonds (as
in chloroform CCI4). It can have a double bond and
two single bonds (as in ethylene CH2 = CH2). It can
have a triple bond and one single bond (as in acetylene
HC=HC).
Hydrocarbons
Concentration
The concentration of a component substance (in a mixture, solution, etc.) is its quantity per unit volume or
mass ("weight") of the total. Common units of concentration are percent by volume, percent by mass (by
"weight"), g/l and mol/l.
Corrosion
Crystal
When a crystalline or semi-crystalline polymer is heated, there might be additional phase changes other than
the Glass transition. Between the (semi-)crystalline
phase and the liquid (melted) phase, there can be intermediate phases - depending on the rate of heating
- such as a liquid crystal phase or other crystalline allotropes. The phase transitions can be examined by using X-ray crystallography, differential calorimetry (DSC)
or differential thermal analysis (DTA). ( Thermoanalytical measurements using DSC and DTA)

Medium
The expression "medium" is synonymous with "chemical", i. e. a substance which takes part in physical and
chemical processes. The flow medium in a pipe is the
substance flowing through the pipe.
Membrane processes
These are methods used on a microscopic scale in separation processes, refining and purification. Membranes
with different pore sizes are utilised to achieve various
degrees of selectivity.
Important methods:
Microfiltration: this method is used to isolate microscopic particles with sizes between (0.06 m (active-carbon dust) and 100 m (human hair)). Microfiltration can be regarded as the intermediate between
conventional filtering and the following.
Ultrafiltration: This method is used to isolate particles
with sizes between (0.001 m (the smallest viruses)
and 0.05 m (wavelength of high-energy UV radiation)). Ultrafiltration, as opposed to reverse osmosis
(see below), cannot isolate salts. It works on the socalled cross-flow principle in which the substances to
be separated flow tangentially over the membrane.
Nanofiltration: this method uses membranes to filter
out particles at the lower limits of ultrafiltration and at
the upper limits of reverse osmosis.
Reverse osmosis (RO): this method is used to isolate salts and particles with sizes between 0.0003
m and 0.001 m (approximate size of small organic
molecules like ethylene).
Electrodialysis: this method covers the same particle
sizes as the last two methods mentioned above.
Migration
Micro-organisms (pathogenic)
Mole
Because of the way in which a polymer is manufactured, it never has molecular chains of the same length
and therefore of constant Molecular weight. Instead,
it has a statistical distribution of molecular weights
(mass) which is typical of the reaction conditions under
which the polymer is made ( Polymer synthesis). Every polymer can be characterised by the following statistical formulae:
Number average of molecular weight:

This results in the solution rising in the U-tube. The process ends when the hydrostatic pressure caused by the
transferred solvent is equal to the osmotic pressure.
Post-crystallization
If one applies external pressure to the side with the concentrated solution, the equilibrium is disturbed, and the
reverse process starts. Solvent from the solution then
flows back into the side which only contains solvent. Examples: this effect, reverse osmosis, is often utilised
in facilities built to desalinate sea water (which can be
viewed as a concentrated solution of salts in water). The
same effect is used medically in dialysis equipment, i.
e. to purify blood. The production of ultrapure water (
Water quality) can also be based on the effect.
Nucleating agents are Additives which are mixed into certain Semi-crystalline polymers to act as nuclei
around which crystals (possibly with modified symmetry) can form. They can also influence the kinetics of the
production of crystals. The agents foster the growth of
small-grained crystallites and prevent that of large
Spherulites. They accelerate solidification and can improve the properties of semi-crystalline polymers considerably. Nucleation can have different causes. Important factors are how easily the polymer melt wets the
nucleation agent or dissolves it.
Under certain circumstances, particular properties of the
agents (e. g. their sterical structure) can be used to encourage the development of particular crystal modifications.
Example: the PP-H components are made of a specially
nucleated PP-H raw material (DAPLEN BE60). This (together with special processing techniques) gives them a
particularly good combination of properties.
Oligomers
Oligomers have short polymer chains consisting of only a few (n<10) monomer units. A high proportion of
oligomers in a polymer material worsens its mechanical
properties.
Organic chemistry
Organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon compounds (apart from a few of the very simplest compounds which are covered in inorganic chemistry
). The division of chemistry into organic and inorganic
parts has historical roots. Organic compounds always
contain carbon, nearly always contain hydrogen and often contain oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus or sulphur.
Osmosis
Osmosis, a process observed in solutions, is a physical and chemical phenomenon of a so-called colligative
sort, i.e. one which depends on the number of dissolved
particles and not on their exact nature.
Imagine the following: an U-tube is divided in the middle
by a membrane. On one side the tube is filled with a solvent, and on the other side (up to the same height) with
a concentrated solution based on the same solvent. If
the membrane is only permeable to the solvent, then a
so-called "osmotic pressure" causes the solvent to pass
through the membrane into the concentrated solution.
66
Oxidation
In very many chemical reactions, electrons are transferred between the reactants. Oxidation is the process
in which electrons are removed from an Atom, an
Ion, or a Molecule. Reduction is the opposite process, i.e. one in which electrons are taken up. Because
the electrons (and their electric charges) do not just
appear or disappear, both processes are inseparably
linked - in so-called redox reactions.
The concept of oxidation (as defined above) is widely applicable. This means that it is not necessarily dependent on the presence of oxygen. Oxidizing agents
oxidize (another substance) and are thereby reduced.
Reducing agents reduce (another substance) and are
thereby oxidized. Example: chromic acid (aqueous CrO
3 solution) is a strong oxidizing agent which also oxidizes PP. The chrome ions of the acid are themselves
reduced by taking up electrons which the PP (the reducing agent) gives up.
pH
The pH of a substance is one of its important properties, i. e. a measure of its acidity or alkalinity ( Acid /
Alkali). Its name is derived from the Latin expression
pondus hydrogenii (= weight of hydrogen). The pH is
the negative common logarithm of the concentration [H
] of hydrogen ions ( pH = -log[H ] ). Note: Acid solutions
have pH < 7. Alkaline solutions have pH > 7. The pH of
a neutral solution is 7.
Phase
Physical ageing
Polyethylene (PE)
Physiologically harmless
Important basic properties of PE are its high impact resistance (the amorphous state of PE has a glass transition temperature TG between -120 C and 110 C) and,
due to its simple molecular structure, a chemical resistance better than other polyolefins. Crystalline PE has a
melting point between 115 C and 135 C.
Pigment
Polarity
Polarity is a concept used in physical chemistry. Ultimately, the polarity of a compound depends on the spatial distribution of electrons (relative to the nuclei of the
atoms) in the compound's molecules. Whenever two
Atoms combine, the distribution of electrons between
their nuclei ceases to be symmetrical, leading to a polarization of the bond. The distribution of the polarized
bonds within a molecule determines whether or not the
whole molecule appears to be polarized.
The polarity of a compound is one of its most important
characteristics, determining almost all of its properties,
both physical and chemical. Example: the well-known
solvent carbon tetrachloride (CCI4) has four polar, carbon-chlorine bonds which are symmetrically so positioned (tetrahedrally) that the molecule displays no external polarity.
Polyethylene is a widely used plastic. It is a pure hydrocarbon and is used for technical piping systems in
many areas, e. g. in sanitary installations (for drinking
water and drainage) and in industrial applications (for
gas pipes, for the protective sleeving of cables, and for
various ducts).

Polymers
Polypropylene (PP)
Polypropylene is a thermoplastic material with a comparatively low density. The combination of its excellent mechanical properties, its enormous chemical resistance and its heat resistance for temperatures up to
about 90 C, make it a widely used material in industrial piping systems. Nowadays, PP industrial pipes are
an integral part of countless installations, of the most di68
verse sorts all over the world. The pipes are routinely
butt welded instead of being cemented together. PP is
being increasingly favoured for applications with materials of the highest purity and at temperatures up to 90
C.
Special catalytic systems have turned the production of
isotactic PP ( Tacticity) into a standardised process.
There are two categories of PP used in piping systems
Homopolymer(PP-H) and Copolymer. The latter,
which contains ethylene as comonomer (typically up to
12 % by weight), can be obtained as a block copoIymer
(PP-C) and as a statistical (= random) copolymer (PPR).
For this reason, PP copolymers
PVC is the one of the oldest polymer materials available. World-wide, it is the second most commonly used
of all plastics. Because it consists of up to 57 % chlorine, its production demands relatively little crude oil. It
is manufactured on an industrial scale in one of three
processes:
Emulsion polymerization (PVC-E)
Suspension polymerization (PVC-S)
Bulk polymerization (PVC-M)
PVC
In the polymer structure, the chlorine atoms are distributed statistically, i. e. in a tactic way. PVC is an
amorphous material of 5 % crystallinity. Its glass transition temperature lies between 75 C and 85 C, and it
has a density of 1.4 g/cm. It can be processed without
difficulty by extrusion, calendering, blow forming, spread
coating, dip coating and injection moulding.
PVCs differ not only in the way they are manufactured,
but also in the many modified forms which arise from
the use of different additives. For example:
PVC-U (unplasticized = hard PVC)
PVC-P (plasticized = soft PVC)
ppm (=10 ) and ppb (=10 ) are very common expressions used for values of concentration.
Note the confusing difference in usage!
A US (and French) billion is 10 (German: Milliarde). A
German Billion is 10 . In the UK there is often the ambiguity of whether the term billion means 10 (older usage) or 10 .

High-impact polymers
Mixing Rubbers and Elastomers to polymers (usually brittle) increases their impact resistance. The energy released at impact is taken up by the elastomer component, sustaining its molecular motion ( Relaxation
). Basically, there are two ways of improving the impact
resistance of polymers:
(i) by copolymerization of the base polymer with an
elastomer component. Example: the block copolymerization of styrene and butadiene to produce polystyrene
(SB).
(ii) by blending the base polymer with an elastomer
component ( Blend). In order to fix such a blend permanently as a stable, homogeneous mixture, the
Compatibility of the two components has to be ascertained.
Example: the well-known material ABS is usually a
blend of the copolymer polyacrylonitrile polystyrene (=
SAN) with polybutadiene (PB) as its elastomer component. The compatibility between SAN and PB is
achieved chemically by placing a covering of SAN over
the SB molecules.

Sterilisation is the complete extermination of micro-organisms (e. g. fungi, bacteria, spores, viruses). The
word "sterile" is synonymous with "free of all living material". Sterility is therefore an absolute condition. It can
be produced by heat, sophisticated filtration, oxidation
and UV radiation. A medium which is sterilised is always disinfected at the same time. A disinfected medium does not have to be sterile. ( Disinfection).

Example: a plastic pipe's suitability for use with ultrapure water depends (among other things) strongly on
the proportion of organic substances of low molecular
weight (e. g. Additives, Oligomers) which, under
working conditions, are leached, or migrate, out of the
pipe.
The TOC is an important part of the so-called "Ieach-out

open new possibilities for the application of the material
PP-H in the transport of ultrapure substances.

Toxicology
Toxicology is defined as the scientific study of the harmful effects of chemicals on living organisms.

Processing aids
Cross-linking
Cross-linking is the process in which linear macromolecules are joined together to make elastomers or
thermosetting plastics. It can be achieved by mixing in
appropriate monomers during polymerization, or (subsequently, in chemically suited polymers) by the addition of hardeners (e. g. in dual-component adhesives),
by heating (e. g. in curing processes with PPS), or by irradiation (e. g. photoresist).

b) Precipitation of surfactants due to hardening agents.

Ion exchangers or special compounds can remove the
hardening agents from the water - leaving "soft" water.

For those unfamiliar with the difference between metric and inch sizes the following note may be helpful. In
imperial systems, the sizes of pipes, fittings and other
components such as valves are identified by reference
to the nominal size of the bore of the pipe expressed in
inches and fractions of an inch.
In metric systems, however, sizes are identified by references to the outside diameter of the pipe expressed in
millimetres.
The table below shows the metric sizes which are regarded for practical purposes as being generally equivalent to imperial sizes. It should, however, be understood
that metric sizes are not simply inch sizes which have
been converted into millimetres and called metric; their
actual dimensions are slightly different and they are with
the exception of 2 " (75 mm) and 5" (140 mm) not interchangeable.

Text for invitation of tenders is needed for pricing construction work. The text has to be well-defined and clear
to every prospective supplier.
The consultant represents the end user and with the invitation to tender takes over the interest of the end user.
Therefore the consultant will define the text for the invitation of tenders.
The tender invitation contains specification of the products to be used (supply) and work to be done (manufacture). With the information a prospective supplier can offer appropriate products and service.
The individual products from different manufacturers are
not always interchangeable regarding quality, condition
of supply and service.
The products have to meet certain specific characteristics and functions which have been specified during design.
Specifications for products and jointing technologies
from Georg Fischer can be found on our web page at:

For all the media mentioned above in lower concentrations, Tangit solvent cement should be used.
Due to the effects of these acids on the pipe material,
we recommend using pipes with a pressure rating PN
16. For the expected life time and compressive strength,
please contact your GF representative.
Attention! Usually the allowable pressure must be decreased by one pressure rating (thus PN16 to PN10).
When using Dytex in PVC-C piping construction with the
above mentioned acids, the pressure and temperature
requirements for PVC-U must be adhered to.
Because Dytex is not gap-filling, a special cement jointing procedure is required and is described in the chapter onjointing technology.
Fusion joints
In the case of PE, PP and PVDF (SYGEF) heat fusion
joints have practically the same chemical resistance
as the respective material. In conjunction with media
which could cause stress cracking, the fused joints can
be subjected to an increased risk due to residual stress
from the jointing process. In such cases a professionally executedwelding is absolutely necessary. The sensitivity against tension fracture formationcan be reduced
substantially by a thermal retreatment (tempering).
Sealing materials
Depending upon the working conditions and the stress
involved, the life span of the sealing materials can differ
from that of the pipeline material. Seals in PTFE, which
is not included in this list, are resistant to all the chemicals listed. The greater permeability of PTFE should,
however, be considered. Under certain working conditions, for example when conveying highly aggressive
media such as hydrochloric acid, this material characteristic must be taken into account.
Compressible media
When defining allowable operating conditions, special
care is required in choosing chemically resistant piping
and sealing materials when transporting compressible

Inch-based systems
General
The choice of material and the pressure rating of the
pipe components are important for both operating safety
and for attaining the specified minimum operational life
of the system.
The decisive factors are:
operating pressure
operating temperature
medium transported
duration of service.
Separatecalculations are necessary if safety factors are
different or the operational lifetime is modified.
The chemical resistance of the material used can be
determined from of our special list for "Chemical resistance of thermoplastics and elastomers for piping systems".

1.) Industrial pipelines are normally designed for a service life of 25 years. If from the time-dependent creep
diagrams we ascertain for ELTEX TUB 121 or CRP
100 an equivalent stress of LCL for the operating point
of 25 years and 20C, we obtain a tension of 10.6
MPa (minimum value of both PE100 materials as per
manufacturer's data).
2.) If we use this tension to ascertain the dimensioning
tension S, and do not round it down, we obtain the value of 8.48 MPa.
3.) Thus the actual nominal pressure in practice is:
for SDR 17 =>PN = 10.6 bar and for
SDR 17.6 =>PN = 10.2 bar.
To summarise: Both SDR classes comply with requirements for industrial applications mentioning a
PN10 system.
Comparison of geometric dimensions
The two SDR classes differ only slightly in wall thickness, as can be seen from the diagram below. This
shows that there is an area where the wall thickness
complies with both requirements of both SDR classes.

Wall thickness
The following pressure/temperature diagram for PROGEF Natural pipes and fittings is valid for a lifetime of 25
years.
For butt fusion the wall thicknessgap may not exceed10 %. Looking at the differences of the wall thicknesses of SDR17 and SDR17.6 the resulting gap is
muchlower, that means butt fusion of both SDR's is no
problem.
Remark: Please take into account the pressure/temperature diagrams forvalves and special fittings. Because
of the construction and/or sealing material used, differences are possible when compared with pipes and fittings. This information can be found in the planning fundamentals of the relevant types of valves, respectively
special fittings.
Remark: Using PROGEF Natural at higher temperatures can lead to a discoloration of the material.

Example:
Intended operating life: 25 years
Max. operating temperature: 40 C
Max. operating pressure: 3 bar
Material: PVC-U
Pressure rating: PN 16
Pipe dimensions:110 x 8.1 mm
from hydrostatic strength curves: 15.5 N/mm
C = (15.5 20 8.1) / (3 (110 - 8.1)) =8.2 >2.5
For the sake of clarity, the calculations are carried out
using the example above, but using the usual minimum
design factor for PP-H instead of the one calculated
p = (20 8.1 15.5/2.5) / (110 - 8.1) = 9.9 bar
Attention: The calculation indicated above applies only to freely moving pipelines. Pipes which are fixed in
the axial direction (fixed installation) must be checked
for buckling. In most cases, this leads to a reduction of
maximum inner pressure as well as shorter distances
between the support brackets. Furthermore, the forces
which act on the fixed points must be taken into consideration. For assistance, please contact your nearest GF
representative.

Water hammer
Water hammer, or surge pressure, is a term used to describe dynamic surges caused by pressure changes in a
piping system. They occur whenever there is a deviation
from the steady state, i.e. when the velocity of the fluid
is increased or decreased, and may be transient or oscillating. Waves of positive or negative pressure may be
generated by any of the following:
vw
di
Step 2
Calculate maximum pressure change due to surging.
p = vw v 10
vw
v1
v2
Step 3
Calculate the maximum and minimum total pressures.
pmax =p + p
pmin =p - p
Wave length
Pressure change
pmax
pmin
Step 4
Calculate the effective safety factor for the maximum total pressure found in step 3.
Step 1
Determine the velocity of the pressure wave
pmax
172
Step 5
For infrequent surges the common minimum values can
be used for safety factors. For frequent surges it should
be at least 3.
If the safety factor found in step 4 does not meet these
criteria for safe operation, an increase in pipe diameter
size should be considered, or measures should be taken to reduce surge occurrance (i. e. actuated valves,
surge tanks, slow start-up pumps).
When using actuated valves it is common to design
valves with closure times greater than the critical period Tc to reduce water hammer. The critical period is the
time taken by the pressure wave to complete one circuit
of the pipeline.

Introduction
The non-conductivity of most plastics has led to their
widespread application in electrical engineering and
electronics. But this property can be a disadvantage under certain circumstances in other applications. In the
case of plastic piping systems, the question of electrostatic charge becomes significant when electrically nonconductive media are to be transported and when the
pipes are installed in potentially explosive premises. In
both of these cases the non-conductivity of the plastics
is not only a disadvantage but could constitute a definite danger. ABS, PVC-U, PVC-C, PE, PP and PVDF
belong to the class of electrically non-conductive materials. Electrically non-conductive materials are those
whose specific resistance exceeds 10 cm. The values
for the materials listed lie in the order of 10 cm.
6
15
For example, in the mining industry in general, and especially in areas exposed to the danger of firedamp,
safety dictates that plastics be used only if their specific resistance does not exceed 10 cm (measured at 20
C and 35 % humidity).

Experience has shown that oil originating from compressors can be found to a greater or lesser extent in the
compressed air pipelines. This can only be avoided by
careful and regular servicing of the filters installed after
the compressors. These mineral oils vary considerably
in their composition and they can also contain aromatic
substances.

PE (Polyethylene) or PB (Polybutylene).
Both materials are lightweight, easy to install and corrosion-proof; they also have the advantage of high tensile
strength. Therefore we recommend polyethylene up to
a minimum temperature of -40 C (e. g. outdoor applications), polybutylene up to a minimum temperature of 0
C (e. g. indoor installations). Danger of explosion is excluded if you follow the operating instructions.
PE and PB are generally chemically resistant to compressor oils. Only for a few oils, which contain esters or
aromates, chemical resistance cannot be guaranteed.
Sealing materials, such as NBR or FPM, which are regularly used for compressed air networks, are also endangered in such cases.
In order to make it easier for the operator of a compressed air system to choose a compressor oil, we have
summarised many of the oils offered on the market
and have divided them into sections according to their
chemical structure. After consulting the oil supplier, it
is also possible to choose an oil which is not on the list
since we do not claim its entirety. The type of oil used
must be included in one of the categories deemed by us
as suitable. We also recommend that the oil selected is
approved by the compressor manufacturer as well.
Phosphoric esters
Please consider the following pressure temperature diagram (PE80 and PE100) for compressed air pipelines
made of polyethylene. This diagram isbased on a lifetime of 25 years and a design factor of 1.6.The environment temperature has to be taken into account, for
example for an installation under a sunny roof or in a
room with compressors running. For safety reasons
we recommend for compressed air pipelinesSDR11 or

A pipe under absolute vacuum (differential partial vacuum 1 bar) is adequately dimensioned against buckling when the critical buckling pressure Pk 2 bar, i.e.
when a minimum safety factor of 2 is calculated [2]. Any
influence caused by out-of-roundness and eccentricity must be specially taken into account. With these assumptions, the following maximum application temperatures are obtained for the various pipe materials (taking

Fittings
The composition of the raw material (granulate) is silicone-free. All moulds for standard fittings are sprayed
with silicone-free separating agents. Following injection
moulding the fittings are directly packed.
GF recommends the choice of a completepacking
unit (that means SP = Standard pack or GP as Gross
pack)when ordering fittings to exclude contamination
en route to the final consumer.
Valves and unions
The individual components of the valves and unions are
cleaned with distilled water (14 M) in a special cleaning process. They are assembled in a special working
area with silicone-free protective gloves.
Sliding components are lubricated slightly and comply
with requirements for special lubricants for varnishing,
e. g. Syntheses PRO AA4. Each valve and union is designated with the following sticker:

Storage
The pipe storage surface must be level and free of
stones. Pipes must be layered and stacked in a way
that avoids the risk of damage or permanent deformation. Larger-diameter, thin-walled pipes must be fitted
with stiffening rings. Avoid single-point or narrow longitudinal supports.
The following table gives recommended maximum
stacking heights for non-palette pipe storage. Provided pipes are stacked on palettes and protected against
sideways movement, the nominal stacking heights
specified in the table may be increased by 50%.
Pipe storage areas should be as well-protected as possible. Absorption of oil, solvents and other chemicals
must be avoided at all costs during storage.

Thermoplastics are subject to greater thermal expansion and contraction than metals. Pipes installed above
ground, against walls or in ducts, especially those exposed to temperature variations, require changes in
length to be taken up in order to prevent extra strain on
the pipes. Length changes can be taken up by:
a) flexible sections
b) compensators
Flexible sections are the most common solution, being
the simplest and the most economical. The calculations
for and the positioning of flexible sections are therefore
described in detail.
with:
L = temperature-related change in length (mm)
L = lengthof the pipe section (m)
T = difference of temperature (K)
= coefficient of linear expansion (mm / m K)
Fundamentals
The low modulus of elasticity of thermoplastics allows
changes in length to be taken up by special pipe sections, where pipe supports are positioned so that they
can take advantage of the natural flexibility of the material. The length of such sections is determined by the diameter of the pipeline and the extent of the thermal expansion to be compensated.

The installation temperature must therefore be incorporated into the calculations as well as the maximum and
minimum operating temperatures.
It is preferable to use "+" to indicate expansion of the
pipe and "-" to indicate contraction.
The larger change in length is the one to be used for determining the required length of the flexible section.
The required length of the flexible section can be calculated using the following formula:
with:
da = pipe outside diameter (mm)
L = change in length (mm)
Ecm= average bending creep modulus for t = 25 a (N/
mm)
b= permitted bending stress for t = 25a (N/mm)

fixed brackets.

c) If the flexible section is pre-stressed to L/2 then
the required length of the flexible section is reduced to

Bending load at flexible sections
Caused by the bending load leakages can
occur at mechanical joints.
Within the range of flexible sections and/or
expansion loops no screw connections or
flange connections shall be used.
Pre-stress
In particularly difficult situations with large changes in
one direction only, it is possible to pre-stress the flexible section during installation and thereby shorten its
length, as illustrated in the next example.
213
Tip: When using compensators, additional longitudinal forces are implemented into the pipeline.
These forces have to be carried by guiding the
pipeline. For example, threaded rods are not suitable. To estimate the lateral forces it can be assumed that they can reach about 15 % of the axial forces. Please contact the manufactures of
compensators for further support designing such
pipelines.
pipelines can support limited additional axial stress without becoming overloaded. In such cases the level of
stress expected must be calculated. The same is true
of any section of pipe between two fixed points where
no allowance has been made for changes in length. The
load at the fixed points must be calculated and considered when planning the fixed points. The distance between pipe brackets in such cases may have to be reduced from the normal values in order to prevent bowing in the pipeline.
Care must be taken to avoid creating cavities when
plastering or concreting in the pipeline, because under
unfavourable conditions these can become areas of
stress concentration. A rich plaster mixture (1 : 3 to 1 :
4) should be used to allow the forces arising from temperature variations to be transmitted away without causing the plaster to crack.
Installing valves
NOTICE
Construction of fixpoint
This should not be done by simply clamping
the bracket onto the outside of the pipe! This
can cause deformation and physical damage
to the pipe, damage that sometimes only later becomes visible.
It should be done either by using pipe
brackets located between two fittings or a
double bracket must be used.(double-sided
fixed point).
Placing a pipe bracket immediately adjacent to a fitting restricts movement due to
changes in length to one direction (one-sided fixed point).
Information:
Pipe brackets must be robust and mounted firmly to be
able to take up the forces arising from changes in length
in the pipeline. Hanging brackets or KLIP-IT pipe brackets are unsuitable for use as fixed points.

Plastic pipelines need to be supported at certain intervals depending on several factors: the material, the average pipe wall temperature, the density of the medium transported and the size and wall thickness of the
pipe. Determining the spacing between pipe brackets is
based on the permissible deflection of the pipe between
consecutive brackets.
Information:
The values given in the tables apply only to pipelines
which are freely movable in the axial direction.
Pipelines which are fastened tightly in the axial direction (fixed installations) must be checked for buckling.
In most cases, this leads to a reduction of the maximum
inner pressure and shorter distances between the support brackets. Furthermore, the forces that act on the
fixed points must also be taken into consideration. For
assistance, please contact your nearest GF representative.

Pre-test
The pre-test serves to prepare the piping system for the
actual test (main test). In the course of pre-testing, a
tension-expansion equilibrium in relation to an increase
in volume will develop in the piping system. A material-related drop in pressure will occur which will require
repeated pumping to restore the test pressure and also frequently a re-tightening of the flange connection
screws.
The guidelines for an expansion-related pressure decrease in pipes are:
Before starting with the internal pressure test, the following points must be checked:
Was installation done according to the available
plans?
All pressure relief devices and flap traps mounted in
the flow direction?
All end valves shut?
Valves in front of other devices are shut to protect
against pressure.
Visual inspection of all joints, pumps, measurement
devices and tanks.
Has the waiting period after the last fusion / cementing been observed?
Now the pipeline can be filled from the geodetic lowest
point. Special attention should be given to the air vent. If
possible, vents should be provided at all the high points
of the pipeline and these should be open when filling the
system. Flushing velocity should be at least 1 m/sec.
Reference values for the filling volume are given in the
table below.

Main test
In the context of the main test, a much smaller drop in
pressure can be expected at constant pipe wall temperatures so that it is not necessary to pump again.
The checks can focus primarily on leak detection at the
flange joints and any position changes of the pipe.
Observe if using compensators
If the pipeline to be tested contains compensators, this
has an influence on the expected axial forces of the
pipeline. Because the test pressure is higher than the
working pressure, the axial forces on the fixed points
become higher. This has to be taken into account when
designing the fixed points.
Observe if using valves
When using a valve at the end of a pipeline (end or final valve), the valve andthe pipe end should be closed
by a dummy flange or cap.This preventsinadvertent
opening of the valve or any pollution of the inside of the
valve.

Introduction
Usually the pressure test is done as a water pressure
test and only in exceptional cases (with consideration of
special safety precautions) as a gas pressure test with
air or nitrogen (please consider also the general chapter
"Introduction into pressure testing").
Safety precautions
WARNING
Compressible media like gas, air or nitrogen under internal pressure.
In case of failure danger to life during the
internal pressure testing by explosively exhaust of medium.
The area around the pipeline under test
pressure is to be clearly restricted for access only by persons assigned with the
testing.
Necessary control equipement is to be
placed at a safe distance.
The testing should be timed so that there
are as few persons as possible in the immediate area.
In particular at the entrances to the endangered area additional signs are to be set up
(Entry prohibited, Attention! Gas pressure
tests!). If necessary persons in neighbouring buildings are to be informed.
Observe if using compensators
If the pipeline to be tested contains compensators, this
has an influence on the expected axial forces of the
pipeline. Because the test pressure is higher than the
working pressure, the axial forces on the fixed points
become higher. This has to be taken into account whendesigning the fixed points.
Observe if using valves
When using a valve at the end of a pipeline (end or final valve), the valve and the pipe end should be closed
by a dummy flange or cap.This preventsinadvertent
opening of the valve or any pollution of the inside of the
valve.
Minimum waiting times for the internal pressure test
Before carrying out the pressure test, observe the minimum waiting times after the last cementing given in the
following table:
Ambient Temperature
Waiting time
10 to 30 C (50 to 86F)
min. 48 hours
230
NOTICE
Leak detection sprays
Commercial leak detection sprays can cause
stress cracks in plastics.
Using these sprays remove any residues
after testing.
Information:
For valves leak tightness using a gas is not representative of the valves leak tightness with a fluid. Therefore
if a GF valve shows a leakage under internal pressure
test with a gas it is recommended to reduce the pressure to 1.5 bar (22 psi) and re-inspect the valves.
Leak tightness test with gas/air
For checking the leak tightness shortly after installation
a test pressure of up to 1.5 bar (22 psi) with a minimum
waiting time of 3 hours applies.
WARNING
Compressible media like compressed
air under internal pressure.
In case of failure danger to life during the
internal pressure testing by explosively exhaust of medium.
The area around the pipeline under test
pressure is to be clearly restricted for access only by persons assigned with the
testing.
Necessary control equipement is to be
placed at a safe distance.
The testing should be timed so that there
are as few persons as possible in the immediate area.
In particular at the entrances to the endangered area additional signs are to be set up
(Entry prohibited, Attention! Gas pressure
tests!). If necessary persons in neighbouring buildings are to be informed.
Leak test with gas as test fluid (compressible medium). Maximum test pressure 0.5
bar
If it is not possible to do an internal pressure test with
water (e.g. pipeline must be kept dry), a leak test can be
carried out with slight overpressure. For safety reasons
the test pressure must then be limited to maximum 0.5
bar overpressure.
For the leak test all the joints should be sprayed with
a foam-forming medium and subsequently checked. A
soap solution, which can be removed simply with water
after the test, is best.
NOTICE
Leak detection sprays
Commercial leak detection sprays can cause
stress cracks in plastics.
Using these sprays remove any residues
after testing.
Since the efficiency of this leak test is very restricted
due to the low load, it should be used preferably for systems with working pressures under 0.5 bar.
Testing procedure
The test pressure shall be least 2 bar higher than the
operating pressure . Ifthis is not possible because of insufficient power of the compressor, then the maximum
compressor pressure shall be used.
The pipelines must be free from any grease or paint.
The test pressure is applied to the installed pipeline with
an increasing of pressure of maximum 3 bar/min (Risk
of water hammer!). Holding the pipeline under the test
pressure all connection parts of the pipeline like flanges,
unions, valves, etc. are inspected on tightness using a
foam building agent. A soap solution, which can be removed simply with water after the test, is best.
NOTICE
Leak detection sprays
Commercial leak detection sprays can cause
stress cracks in plastics.
Using these sprays remove any residues
after testing.
It is recommended to reduce the test pressure to 2 bar,
and to repeat the test using a foam building agent.
231
Commissioning
When putting a pipeline into operation for the first time,
besides the internal pressure test, temperature effects
are also generally examined. Thermal stress, i.e. expansion, was not simulated during testing.
We recommend an initial inspection at the earliest 3
days, at the latest 7 days, after commissioning and
recording the results.
The inspection checks should include:
critical points in the system (visual inspection)
flange joints, unions, valves (leak-proof)
safety and leak detection equipment (condition, function)
Continuous inspection of the piping system should be
done by operating personnel during their usual rounds
according to the operating instructions.

PP-V flanges
PP-steel flanges
The PP-steel flange is a stiff and robust flange universally applicable. Its characteristics are as following:
Corrosion-free plastic flange made out of polypropylene PP-GF30 (glass-fibre reinforced) with steel inlay
High chemical resistance (esp. against hydrolysis)
The ambient temperature is max 80C
UV-stabilized
PVC flanges
PVC-Uflanges may also be used as long as the medium or the ambient temperature does not exceed the
temperature of 45 C.
At higher temperatures the flanges could distort with
time.
Flanges used at higher temperatures must therefore
have adequate thermal and mechanical stability. GF
PP-V-flanges and PP/steel-flanges satisfy these requirements.
Blanking flanges
The new blanking flange set is a combination of a backing flange and an end blank. The end blanks are available in PP-H and PE materials.
237
The end blanks in the dimensions d63 to d315 are combined with the proven PP-V backing flange. The dimensions d355 to d630 are combined with a backing flange
made of PP-H with steel reinforcement.

O-ring
In applications with low working pressures the customary flat gasket, which is made of 2 to 5 mm thick sheet
material (depending on the nominal diameter), is used.
For flange connections with flat gaskets, flanges which
are sturdy enough to withstand the higher torque required for fastening the bolts in such connections are
necessary. Allflanges from GF meet these requirements.
For increased working and testing pressures, the profile flange gasketsand O-rings have proved useful.
Compared to the flat gasket, the profile flangegasket is
made of two components. One is the crowned flat gasket part which is reinforced with steel, and the other is
the profiled part (O-ring, lip seal) on the seal inner side.

Seal material
The choice of a seal material is based on the flow media. Details on the suitability of the seal material, or
specifically the chemical resistance, can be found in our
resistance tables.
The use of seal materials with a high degree of hardness, e. g. as in steel pipes, is restricted in thermoplastic piping systems because the flange or the adapter
could become deformed under the great sealing forces.
Elastomer materials, such as EPDM, CSM or FPM, with
a Shore-A-hardness up to 75 are preferable.
Dimensions of the seal
The dimensions of the seal are determined in the general standards for pipe jointing components. Too big divergences in the inner or outer diameter of the seal as
compared to the flange adapter can lead to increased
mechanical stress of the flange connection, to accelerated wear of the inner side of the seal as well as deposits inside the pipe.
One gasket for everything
GF Piping Systems makes it easy for you to find the
right gasket. Our new standardized gasket is ideal for
both butt fusion and socket fusion systems alike. It no
longer makes any difference what SDR your piping system has. Save time in selecting the right gasket. Avoid
mistakes and stock less variations. Everything has become much easier. The new standardized gasket, available as profile flange gasket or flat gasket, always puts
you on the safe side.

Adaptor unions between plastic and nonferrous metal pipes (brass union end)
To connect plastic piping components to pipes, fittings
or valves made of non-ferrous metals with threaded
connections, adapter unions with brass connectors
should preferably be used.
The seal in the brass thread can be made either with
hemp or PTFE tape.
These adapter unions with EPDM and FPM O-rings are
available for the following plastics:
Adapter union with tapered external
pipe thread R
Brass PVC-U, PVC-C, ABS with solvent cement socket
Adapter union with parallel internal pipe

Brass PVC-U, PVC-C, ABS with solvent cement socket
Always mind the detailed information given for the individual products in the respective product range.
Threaded fittings (without reinforcement ring) with
parallel internal thread Rp
Threaded fittings (without reinforcement ring) in the
materials ABS, PVC-U and PVDF with parallel internal
thread Rp make it possible to connect plastic pipes with
one another. Some examples of such threaded fittings
can be found in the following:

Adaptor fittings for connecting plastic piping systems and metal threading
ABS/ Brass R
ABS/ Brass Rp
The adaptor fittings for connecting plastic piping systems and metal threading offer greatest possible flexibility for installation with the combined socket/spigot on
the plastic end. The metal thread can be sealed either
with hemp or PTFE-tape.
The adaptor fitting is sealed with an EPDM O-ring. It
serves also as protection against distrotion to avoid
damaging the plastic during installation. Compared to
the usual adaptor unions the special connecting technology with snap ring guarantees increased leaktightness also while temperature change and during vibration.
In addition to the classic transition to metal pipes this fittings can also be used for connecting pressure gauges.
Note: To avoid electrochemical corrosion in transitions to non-ferrous metals, brass connections must be
used.

After use, clean the brush of excess cement with dry absorbent paper and then clean thoroughly using TANGIT
cleaner. Brushes must be dry before being re-used
(shake out).
Replace the lid of the cement tin after use to prevent the
solvent evaporating. Using the conical lid allowsleaving
the brush in the cement tin during breaks.
Both solvent cement and cleaner dissolve PVC-U. Pipes
and fittings must thereforenotbe laid on or allowed to
come into contact with spilled cement or paper containing cement residues.
Do not close off cement pipelines during the drying process. This is particularly important at temperatures below + 5 C, when there is otherwise a danger of damaging the material.
After the drying process (see waiting times in the following table) the pipelines can be filled. To remove extant
solvent vapour, it is recommended to flush the pipeline
before use.
For pipes that are not put into immediate use, it is recommended, after careful cleaning, to fill them with water
and flush regularly.
Do not use compressed air for flushing.

Wipe the outside of the pipe and the inside of the socket with a clean cloth to remove obvious dirt. Marking
the jointing length on the pipe end makes it possible to
check afterwards whether the pipe has been inserted to
the full extent of the socket.
Note: If the outside diameter of the pipe and the inside
diameter of the socket are at opposite extremes of their
tolerances, then the pipe cannot be inserted dry into the
fitting socket. This will only become possible once the
cement has been applied.
253
Cementing
Clean the outside of the pipe end and the inside of the
socket thoroughly with Tangit cleaner and absorbent
paper. Use a fresh piece of paper for each component.
Remove any condensation which may have formed on
the parts.
Important: Pipe end and fitting socket must be dry and
free from grease and dirt and must not be touched after
cleaning.
Temperature in C, F
After the cement has been applied, insert the pipe to the
full depth of the socket immediately without twisting and
bring them into the correct alignment. Ensure that the
outlet of the fitting is in the correct position. Hold them
briefly in this position to allow the cement to set. Wait at
least 10 minutes before the next joint, extend the waiting time at temperatures under 10 C to 30 minutes.
Remove any surplus cement immediately, using absorbent paper.
A bead of excess solvent cement around the complete
external circumference of the joint and a slightly smaller
bead again around the complete internal circumference
show that the joint has been performed correctly.
After use, clean the brush of excess cement with dry absorbent paper and then clean thoroughly using TANGIT
cleaner. Brushes must be dry before being re-used
(shake out).
Replace the lid of the cement tin after use to prevent the
solvent evaporating. Using the conical lid, allowsleaving
the brush in the cement tin during breaks.
The length of drying period before the joint may be subjected to testing or operating pressure depends on the
ambient temperature and the tolerances.
Generally the waiting time after the last joint until the
pressure test at a testing pressure of 15 bar (PN10)
must be at least 15 hours, a testing pressure of 21 bar
(PN16) must be at least 24 hours. If the pipe is only
subjected to the operating pressure, e. g. after adaptation or repair work, the following rule of thumb for thewaiting timeapplies:
1 hour waiting time per bar operating pressure.
For temperatures above 20 C the test pressure must
be reduced according to the requirements given in the
chapter "Final testing and commissioning".

Fine cleaning is done with the Dytex solvent (do not use
Tangit cleaner!). Soak a white, absorbent, lint-free paper with Dytex solvent and thoroughly clean the dry surfaces which are to be cemented. Use a new sheet of
absorbent paper for each cleaning. Then brush Dytex
solvent onto the surfaces to be cemented (pipe ends on
the outside, fitting on the inside) until the surface clearly
begins to dissolve (becomes sticky).
Note: The quantities specified above are to be understood as practice-orientated maximum values. In principle the quantities depend on gap dimensions, temperatures, working technique.
Preparations
The pipe must be cut off at right angles. Remove the inside edges and chamfer the outside ones as illustrated
in the sketch. This is the only way to achieve an optimal
solvent cemented joint.
Important: Well-chamfered pipe ends prevent the layer of cement from being removed as the pipe is inserted
into the fitting.

Wipe the outside of the pipe and the inside of the socket with a clean cloth to remove obvious dirt. Marking
the jointing length on the pipe end makes it possible to
check afterwards whether the pipe has been inserted to
the full extent of the socket.
Because Dytex cement is not gap-filling, the fit of the
pipe and fitting must be checked in the dry state. If the
pipe end can be inserted easily and without resistance
to the stop, several applications of cement are necessary.
257
The cementing should be done at temperatures between 5 C and 40 C. If there are deviations, please
observe the following safety measures:
At temperatures near the freezing point, any condensation or thaw must be removed, e.g. with warm air. The
cement and the solvent should be kept beforehand at
room temperature. The finished joint must be kept at approx. 25 C for another 15-30 minutes.
At higher temperatures, protect the jointing area from
direct sunlight as the components could heat up too
much.
Up to about d63 mm, the cement joints can be manufactured by one person alone. From d75 mm one person
should apply the cement to the fitting socket while another coats the pipe end, otherwise it is not possible to
maintain the open assembly time of max. 1 minute.
Remove any thick cement residue on the brush with a
dry absorbent paper and then rinse the brush with the
solvent. Before using the cleaned brushes again, they
must be dry to touch (shake out).
To prevent the solvent from evaporating (cement dries
up), the cement tin should be kept closed during work
breaks. A lid that allows keeping the brush in the tin can
be used.
Since Dytex cement and solvent are etching, pipes or
fittings may not be placed on spilled cement or cement
residue left on the paper or come into contact with them
in any way.
Do not close off cement pipelines during the drying process. This is particularly important at temperatures below + 5 C, when there is otherwise a danger of damaging the material.
After a drying period of approx. 48 hours at room temperature, the final strength of the joint is achieved. At
lower ambient temperatures, the bonding takes longer.
The pipeline may only be filled and the pressure test
may only be done at the earliest 48 hours after the last
cementing.
For temperatures above 20 C the test pressure must
be reduced according to the requirements given in the
chapter "final testing and commissioning".

Recommendation for solvent cement jointing of ABS fittings of dimensions 250 - 315 mm
ABS solvent cement fittings d250 to d315 from GF are
designed and tested for a nominal pressure of PN6(6
bar).
Our experience and tests reveal that pipes above d250
can be slightly oval, which can produce a heightened
cementing gap. GF therefore recommends that pipes
from dimensions d250 should be operated at max. 6 bar
working pressure.
Please note the special remarks for dimensions 250 315 in the following jointing instructions.

Cement and cleaner should be stored in a cool, dry
place (535 C)! Under these conditions the cement and
cleaner are durable for 24 months starting from the date
of filling (imprinted on the tin).
Cementing
Clean the outside of the pipe end and the inside of the
socket thoroughly with ABS cleaner and absorbent paper.
Important: Pipe end and fitting socket must be dry and
free from grease and dirt and must not be touched after
cleaning.
Temperature in C / F
ABS pipes should be cemented at temperatures between+5 C and +40 C. Take the following protective
measures if the temperatures deviate from the above:
Installation at low temperatures requires utmost care.
Since Tangit ABS cures physically by evaporation, hardening may be slowed down considerably. Special installation techniques are therefore required at temperatures
below +5C.
Cement and cleaner should be stored at room temperature. To remove condensation or ice water which may
have formed, pipe ends and sockets to be bonded are
warmed to +25 to +30C by means of a suitable hotair blower (explosion proof) and then bonding is done
as described. The finished joint must be kept at +25 to
+30C according to the waiting times mentioned in the
following beforethe next cementing.
Avoid uneven overheating ( shorten the opening time)
when cementing at higher temperatures by protecting
the jointing area from direct sunlight.
The quick curing time of the cement necessitates that
the joint is made within the opening time after application of the cement has started. The opening time of the
ABS cement varies with the ambient temperature and
the thicknessof the cement applied:

- above 30 C (86F)
Safety precautions
Tangit cement andcleaner contain highly volatile solvents. This makes good ventilation or adequate fume
extraction essential in closed spaces. Since the solvent
fumes are heavier than air, extraction must occur at
floor level, or at least below the working level. Place paper which has been used for cleaning or for the removal
of surplus cement into closed containers to minimise the
amount of solvent fumes in the air.
Cement and cleaner are inflammable. Extinguish open
fires before commencing work. Switch off unprotected
electrical apparatus, electric heaters, etc. Avoid static
charge. Do not smoke! Discontinue any welding operations. Furthermore, observe all instructions issued by
the solvent cement manufacturer (e. g. label of the tin
and any supplementary documentation).
Protect pipes and fittings from spilled solvent cement,
cleaner and absorbent paper which has been used to
wipe off cement. Do not dispose of surplus solvent cement or cleaner in drainage systems.
Repair works
If the pipeline is only subjected to the operating pressure with fluids, e. g. after adaptation or repair works,
the following rule of thumb for the waiting time applies,
which is depending on the diameter:
Dimension d20 up to d140
Ambient Temperature
10 to 30 C (50-86F)
- below 10 C (50F)
- above 30 C (86F)
263
For COOL-FIT ABS Plus dimensions below d200 calibration of the pipe is not required, please follow cementing
instructions.
264
Always ensure that the pipe has been chamfered before inserting the calibration tool.
Windout the jaws of the tool until the tool is firmly located.
10
Please note that the tool calibrates the pipe and therefore may not always remove material and may remove
different amounts of material as it cuts.
265
12 It is recommended that the installer checks the diameter of the calibrated pipe using the enclosed gauge.
The internal diameters required are also listed in the
COOL-FIT catalogue and in the tooling instructions.
The jointing technique for COOL-FIT ABS Plusinternal jointing follows the same tried and tested technique
as that for standard COOL-FIT ABS using exactly the
same tooling and Tangit cement.
Following is a summary of COOL-FIT ABS solvent cement jointing for COOL-FIT ABS Plus. Please refer to
the standard COOL-FIT ABS solvent cementing jointing
instructions for exact curing times, handling instructions,
health and safety advice and commissioning procedure.

Fusion jointing of PE
IR Plus fusion jointing of PE100 piping systems
Fusion jointing method
Tools required
Infrared fusion jointing requires a special jointing machine in addition to the tools normally used for plastic
pipework construction (pipe cutters, etc.).
GF supplies several types of IR Plus fusion jointing machines:
IR 63 Plus: for fusion joints in the size range d20 63 mm
IR 110 Plus: for fusion joints in the size range d20 110 mm
1
Pipe
Heating element
Fitting
The resulting fusion joints are homogeneous and display the following characteristics:
non-contact heating of the jointing components eliminates the risk of contamination and inhomogenities;
smaller jointing beads due to adjustment of jointing
pressure path prior to the fusion process itself, i. e.
elimination of the equalisation process;
adjustment of the jointing pressure path also ensures
excellent reproducibility of the fusion joints;
low-stress fusion joints due to very uniform heating by
means of IR radiator.

Protect the area of the fusion joint from adverse weather conditions, such as rain, snow and wind. At temperatures below +5 C or above +45 C, measures must be
taken to ensure that the temperature in the working area
is in the range required for satisfactory jointing and does
not hinder the necessary manual tasks.
Clean the heating element
Clean the heating element with dry, clean paper before
each fusion joint!
Protect the working surface of the heating element
from becoming soiled. Clean both faces of the heating element with dry, lint-free paper before each fusion
joint. Protect the heating element from wind, damage
and soiling during the intervals between making fusion
joints.

The jointed parts must stay in the fusion jointing machine under jointing pressure until the end of the cooling
period specified in the table.
Finished joint
Fusion check
A bead should form around the entire circumference of
the pipe. K in the diagram to the left should always be
positive.
All fusion joints must be allowed to cool completely before pressure testing, i. e. as a rule wait about 1 hour after the last joint has been completed.
General requirements
275
The basic rule is that only similar materials can be fusion jointed, i. e. PE with PE. This applies also for the
jointing of PE80 with PE100.
Tools required
Apart from the tools normally used in plastic piping construction, such as pipe cutters or a saw with a cutting
guide, the socket fusion jointing method requires certain
special tools.
Important: The tools described here may be used for
GF socket fusion fittings made of PP and PVDF as well
as PE.

Make sure that the tools and pipes are clean and
grease-free even beyond the fusion zone; if necessary,
clean with a cleaning fluid.
Pipe in size d16
For pipes of diameter d = 16 mm, chamfer about 2 mm
of the pipe end at an angle of 15. Prepare about 15
mm of the pipe end with a scraper. Mark off the jointing
length of 13 mm on the pipe.
Pipes in sizes d20 to d110
In the case of SDR 11 pipes with diameter
d = 20 or 25 mm, insert a support sleeve
manually in the pipe end as far as the stop
before starting to peel, or use pipes with
smaller SDR values.
Peel the pipe end until the blades are flush with the pipe
end.
Should ovality of the pipe prevent the peeling tool from
being properly applied, the pipe must first be rounded
(e. g. in a vice or with a screw clamp).
Use a scraper to complete the peeling of any area
where ovality impairs the effectiveness of the peeling
tool.

Pull the fitting and pipe from the heating tools with a
"snap off" action as soon as the heating period has
elapsed. Paying attention to the alignment marks, immediately push them together axially without twisting.
Hold them together for the same duration as the heating
period
Pressure testing
All fusion joints must be allowed to cool completely before pressure testing, i. e. as a rule wait about an hour
after the last joint has been completed.
Electrofusion
General requirements
Especially check that the electrofusion automatic machine and the fusion zone are placed under the same
climatic conditions.
Storage
ELGEF Plus electrofusion fittings are packed separately in a polythene bag. If the fittings are protected from
direct sunlight in the original packing and not stored
above 50 C, they can be stored for almost 10 years.
The storage duration commences on the date that the
fittings are produced.
Protection of fusion area
The pipe and fitting surfaces to be fused should be
carefully protected from dust, grease, oil and lubricants.
Use only cleaning agents that are suitable for PE.
Attention: There should be no grease (such as hand
cream, oily rags, silicone etc.) in the fusion zone!
Fusion preparation
Processing notes
The quality of the joint depends to a considerable extent on the care with which the preparatory work is performed. Electrofusion jointing should be carried out only
by trained personnel.
The melt flow range (MFR) of ELGEF Plus electrofusion
products is in the range 0.4 to 1.4 g/10 min. They can
be fused with PE pipes with a melt flow range between
0.2 and 1.4 g/10 min.

The fusion jointing process consists in transmitting precisely defined thermal energy to the pipe and fitting
ends being joined by means of half-shell heating elements.
At the same time an elastic, pressurised bladder supports the inside surface of the fusion zone in order to
prevent the formation of an internalfusion bead.

General requirements
Tools required
BCF jointing requires the GF BCF Plus jointing machine in addition to the tools normally used for plastic
pipework construction (pipe cutters, etc.).
283
The clamping equipment must hold the various parts securely without damaging the surfaces. Possible ovality can be largely compensated by centred clamping of
the components to be joined. It must also be possible to
hold all parts firmly in alignment.
The machine must also be capable of face planing the
fusion surfaces of pipes and fittings.
The fusion jointing machine must be sufficiently solid to
be able to absorb the pressures arising during the fusion procedure without detrimentally deforming the joint.
The heating surfaces of the heating element must
be flat and parallel. The temperature variation over
the working area must not exceed 10 C. The machine should be set up and operated according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
General conditions
Protect the area of the fusion joint from adverse weather conditions, such as rain, snow and wind. At temperatures below +5 C or above +45 C, measures must be
taken to ensure that the temperature in the working area
is in the range required for satisfactory jointing and does
not hinder the necessary manual tasks.

All the components clamped into the fusion jointing machine are planed simultaneously with the planer provided. The shavings should not be thicker than 0.2 mm.
This step is completed when there is no unmachined
area left on either of the parts to be joined. This is normally the case when no more shavings come off the
machined surface.
Remove any shavings which may have fallen into the
pipe or fitting with e. g. a brush. The fusion surfaces
should not be touched by hand under any circumstances. Otherwise they must be cleaned with cleaning
fluid.
Once they have been machined, the parts are moved
together until they touch. The gap between the two
parts must not exceed the value in the following table.

A bead should form around the entire circumference of
the pipe. K in the diagram to the left should always be

All fusion joints must be allowed to cool completely before pressure testing, i.e. as a rule wait about 1 hour after the last joint has been completed.
The basic rule is that only similar materials can be fusion jointed, i. e. PP with PP.
Tools required
Apart from the tools normally used in plastic piping construction, such as pipe cutters or a saw with a cutting

Tools required
Infrared fusion jointing requires a special jointing machine in addition to the tools normally used for plastic
pipework construction (pipe cutters, etc.).
GF supplies several types of IR Plus fusion jointing machines:
IR 63 Plus: for fusion joints in the size range d20 63 mm
IR 110 Plus: for fusion joints in the size range d20 110 mm

The resulting fusion joints are homogeneous and display the following characteristics:
non-contact heating of the jointing components eliminates the risk of contamination and inhomogenities;
smaller jointing beads due to adjustment of jointing
pressure path prior to the fusion process itself, i. e.
elimination of the equalisation process;
adjustment of the jointing pressure path also ensures
excellent reproducibility of the fusion joints;
low-stress fusion joints due to very uniform heating by
means of IR radiation.

Welding report/traceability
The welding parameters for the relevant welding operations can be read out directly via various interfaces on
the machine. It is possible to print these out on paper
(commercially available printers), on labels or to employ
electronic data output (PCMCIA card or USB).
This automatically provides an accurate record with all
essential fusion parameters for each individual fusion
joint, as required.
General conditions
Protect the area of the fusion joint from adverse weather conditions, such as rain, snow or wind. The permitted
temperature range for IR Plus fusion jointing is between
+5 C and +40 C. Outside this range, suitable action
must be taken to ensure that these conditions are maintained. It must also be ensured that the components being joined are in this temperature range.
The fusion jointing process consists in transmitting precisely defined thermal energy to the pipe and fitting

Material selection
Pressure-temperature diagram
In order to make the right material selection, the pressure-temperature diagram might help you. The pressure-temperature diagram is based on a curve showing
the pressure course at a certain temperature. With the
diagram, the material can be determined, because not
every material can withstand the same pressure rating.
Depending on the design of the valve their pressuretemperature diagrams may differ from those for pipes
and fittings, e.g. limited temperature range due to a seal
or lower pressure loading at higher temperatures. This
has to be considered when dimensioning the piping system.
Water
Ambient temperature

Furthermore, the proper handling plays an important
role to the max. life time. Regular maintenance is also
an important factor that must be considered.

Chemical resistance
Pipes made from plastics are used not only for drinking
water, water for general use and waste water, but also
for the conveyance of aggressive liquids and gases. It
is, however, important that the most suitable plastic material is selected for each application. The Chemical Resistance List in this section serves as a useful guide in
this respect. It contains the essential thermoplasts and
elastomers of the GF product range which can, either
through environments or through external influences,
come into direct contact with the media.
Chemical resistance
More detailed information are available in the chapter Material selection- Chemical resistance.
307
Ball valve
The ball valve is similar in
concept to the plug valve but
uses arotating ball with a
hole through it that allows
straight-through flow in the
open position and shuts off
flow when the ball is rotated90 to block the flow passage. This valve is used for
open/close functions and also
for throttling services.
308
Diaphragm valve
The diaphragm valve has
a flexible membrane that is
moved by means of a pressure pin. When the pressure pin is located in the lower position, the diaphragm
is pushed onto a stage and
the flow is interrupted. Diaphragm valves are well suited for corrosive, abrasive and
dirty media.

This diagram indicates the torque required for the opening and closing movement.
These are always reference values.
Tightening torques
For valves with flange connections, the recommended
values for tightening the screws, and the required number and length ofscrews are given. These values differ
according to the type of seal. Profile gaskets and O-ring
seals require less tightening torque than the flat gaskets.
Conversion factors
kv - Cv
In Europe, the kv value is related to a flow rate of 1 m/h
at 16 C and a pressure loss of 1 bar. In US, it is called
Cv and relates to a flow rate of 1 US gal/min at a temperature of 60 F and a pressure loss of 1 psi. That

Safety information
CAUTION
Media containing solids
These could lead to damages/leakage due to
abrasion.
During control operation, cavitation has to
be avoided.
WARNING
Removing the pipeline
Uncontrolled escape of the medium can
cause injury.
Before dismounting, release all pressure
from the piping system.
With hazardous, flammable or explosive
media, the piping system must be completely emptied and rinsed before the valve
may be dismounted.
Make sure that the medium is caught safely with the appropriate measures.
Open the dismounted ball valve of type 546
halfway (45 position) and let the 546 drain
in a vertical position catch the medium in
an appropriate vessel.

NOTICE
Installation of the ball valve
The ball valve must always be built into the
system in the opened position.

DANGER
Selection of lubricants
Using the wrong lubricants can damage the
material of the ball valve or seals. Consequences can be death or serious injuries.
Never use petroleum-based greases or
Vaseline (Petrolatum).
For silicon-free ball valves, please consult
the special manufacturers instructions.
All seals should be lubricated with a silicon-based grease.
CAUTION
Handling of the seals
All the seals (made of e.g. EPDM, FPM) are
organic materials which react to environmental influences. They must therefore be kept in
their original packaging, and stored cool, dry
and dark. The seals should be checked for
damages from aging, such as fissures and
hardening, before mounting.
Do not use defective spare parts.
CAUTION
Overstraining by exceeding the maximum
pressure
The test pressure on a valve must not exceed the value 1.5 x PN, (maximum PN + 5
bar). The component with the lowest PN determines the maximum allowable test pressure in the piping section.
Check the valves and connections on tightness during the pressure test. Document
your results.

For valve ends type 546 made of PP in combination with backing flanges, use half of the standard nut
height.
1)
2)
Ball valves require no maintenance under normal operating conditions. However, the following measures must
be considered:
Periodic check that no media escapes to the outside.
We recommend a function test for ball valves which
are kept permanently in the same position 12 x a
year to check serviceability.
For frequent control operations valve automation, or
due to chemical attack on the sealing material it may
become necessary to replace parts inside the valve. For
this purpose, the valve must be removed from the piping
system.

Safety information
CAUTION
Media containing solids
These could lead to damages/leakage due to
abrasion.
During control operation, cavitation has to
be avoided.
WARNING
Removing the pipeline
Uncontrolled escape of the medium can
cause injury.
Before dismounting, release all pressure
from the piping system.
With hazardous, flammable or explosive
media, the piping system must be completely emptied and rinsed before the valve
may be dismounted.
Make sure that the medium is caught safely with the appropriate measures.
Open the dismounted valve type 543
halfway (45 position) and let the 543 drain
in a vertical position catch the medium in
an appropriate vessel.
338
NOTICE
Installation of the ball valve
The ball valve must always be built into the
system in the opened position.
DANGER
Selection of lubricants
Using the wrong lubricants can damage the
material of the ball valve or seals. Consequences can be death or serious injuries.
Never use petroleum-based greases or
Vaseline (Petrolatum).
For silicon-free ball valves, please consult
the special manufacturers instructions.
All seals should be lubricated with a silicon-based grease.
CAUTION
Graph
Exploded view type 543 horizontal
CAUTION
Overstraining by exceeding the maximum
pressure
The test pressure on a valve must not exceed the value 1.5 x PN, (maximum PN + 5
bar). The component with the lowest PN determines the maximum allowable test pressure in the piping section.
Check the valves and connections on tightness during the pressure test. Document
your results.
Flow characteristics
The kv values are shown in %, i.e. to determine the absolute values, these are to be
multiplied by the respective table values.

Operating torque
Depending on the application (e.g. operating speed, fluid, temperature, etc.), breakaway torques of approx. 2
times the operating torque should be taken for external
actuators.
The decision whether to use a 3-way ball valve with Lor T-port depends on the desired functions the valve
has to perform:
L-port: Diverting function, closing (two ports closed)
352
The decision whether to use a 3-way ball valve with Lport or tripod-port depends on the desired functions the
valve has to perform:
L -port: Diverting function, closing (two ports closed)
T-port: Diverting function, mixing function, branch
closed/passage open
Tripod-port: Diverting function,switching B-C open to AC open with 90 turn. Attention: Mixing function in the intermediate position!
The following illustration shows the individual functions
and the corresponding position of the hand lever:

Ball valves require no maintenance under normal operation conditions. However, the following measures must
be considered:
Periodic check that no media escapes to the outside.
We recommend a function test for ball valves which
are kept permanently in the same position 12 x a
year to check serviceability.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to ball
valve type 523. They should identify the hazards and
advice that should be considered for the different use
and installation / commissioning.
WARNING
Confusing fixed and loose side
Non-observance may lead to severe injuries
or death.
Housings are distinguished into a fixed and
a loose side. The fixed side is the side into
which the ball cannot be inserted.
Carefully read the instruction manual during the assembly.
CAUTION
Overstraining by exceeding the maximum
pressure
The test pressure on a valve must not exceed the value 1.5 x PN, (maximum PN + 5
bar). The component with the lowest PN determines the maximum allowable test pressure in the piping section.
Check the valves and connections on tightness during the pressure test. Document
your results.
CAUTION
Central part as spare part
Exchanging single components from the central part can have serious consequences.
When exchanging the ball valve type 523,
always use only the central part as a replacement.
When mounting / dismounting the ball
valve, always follow the steps of the instruction manual.
Execute a functional test prior to commissioning.
NOTICE
Observe changes in dimensions
In comparison to type 323, type 523 has different installation dimensions, connectors,
and union nuts. Using different components
and installation dimensions (than required for
type 523) may damage the piping system.
Compare the installation dimensions and
installation descriptions in the technical
documentation with the components at
hand.
357
WARNING
Risk of injury due to uncontrolled evasion
of the medium
If the pressure was not relieved completely, the medium can evade uncontrolled. Depending on the type of medium, risk of injury
may exist.
Completely relieve pressure in the pipes
prior to dismounting.
Completely empty and rinse pipe prior to
dismounting in connection with harmful,
flammable, or explosive media. Pay attention to potential residues.
Provide for safe collection of the medium
by implementing appropriate measures
(e.g. connection of a collection container).
After dismounting, the ball valve should be
stored or disassembled.
Partially open the dismounted ball valve
(45 position) and let it drain in vertical position. Thereby, collect the medium.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to false mounting of the
ball valve to the pipe
The ball valve must always be installed in
open position.
CAUTION
Pay attention to arrows on scale
Rotating the scale will impair the functionality. This can cause incorrect setting of the ball
position.
Pay attention to the arrows on the scale.
These must always point into the direction
of the fixed side.
The flow direction is also indicated by the
marker.

WARNING
Removing the pipeline
Uncontrolled escape of fluid may cause injury.
Before dismounting, release all pressure
from the piping system.
With hazardous, flammable or explosive
media, the piping system must be completely emptied and rinsed before the valve
may be dismounted.
Make certain that the medium is caught
safely with the appropriate measures
Open the dismounted 322 halfway (45
position) and let the 322 drain in a vertical
position catch the medium in an appropriate vessel.

DANGER
Selection of lubricants
Using the wrong lubricants can damage the
material of the ball valve or seals. Consequences can be death or serious injuries.
Never use petroleum-based greases or
Vaseline (Petrolatum).
For silicon-free ball valves, please consult
the special manufacturers instructions.
All seals should be lubricated with a silicon-based grease.
CAUTION
Handling of the seals
All the seals (made of e.g. EPDM, FPM) are
organic materials which react to environmental influences. They must therefore be kept in
their original packaging, and stored cool, dry
and dark. The seals should be checked for
damages from aging, such as fissures and
hardening, before mounting.
Do not use defective spare parts.
CAUTION
Overstraining by exceeding the maximum

The test pressure on a valve must not exceed the value 1.5 x PN, (maximum PN + 5
bar). The component with the lowest PN determines the maximum allowable test pressure in the piping section.

DANGER
Ball valve as end valve
If the ball valve, which functions as an end
valve in a piping system under pressure, is
opened, the medium can exit uncontrollably.
Consequences can be death or serious injury
from contact with the medium.
The end valve in a pressure-bearing system may only be opened when the medium can be caught or carried off safely and
splashing is prevented by taking the appropriate measures.
NOTICE
Mounting of the ball valve
Operation and temperature changes can
cause reaction forces, which lead to longitudinal thermal expansion and bending forces
that can damage the valve.
Absorb these forces by fixed points in front
of or after the valve.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
ball valve. They should identify the hazards and advice
that should be considered for the different uses and installation/commissioning.
DANGER
Disregarding the general safety instructions for electrical actuators
Non-observance can result in serious injury
or death.
Observe the general safety instructions for
electric actuators.
CAUTION
Intended use of the actuators
When not used as prescribed injuries can occur. When mounted on a valve and connected to a system control, the purpose of this
actuator is to:
actuate valves with 90 pivoting (ball valves
and butterfly valves),
indicate the previously calibrated end positions of the valve via electrical signal to the
system control (accessory), and
provided that the actuator data corresponds to the electrical control and the
valve and
in case of interruption in the supply voltage,
warrant that the actuator/valve remains in
the current position. Please use the emergency manual override or install the failsafe return unit.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
ball valve. They should identify the hazards and advice
that should be considered for the different uses and installation/commissioning.
DANGER
Disregarding the general safety instructions for electrical actuators
Non-observance can result in serious injury
or death.
Observe the general safety instructions for
electric actuators.
CAUTION
Intended use of the actuators
When not used as prescribed injuries can occur. When mounted on a valve and connected to a system control, the purpose of this
actuator is to:
actuate valves with 90 pivoting (ball valves
and butterfly valves),
indicate the previously calibrated end positions of the valve via electrical signal to the
system control (accessory), and
provided that the actuator data corresponds to the electrical control and the
valve and
in case of interruption in the supply voltage,
warrant that the actuator/valve remains in
the current position. Please use the emergency manual override or install the failsafe return unit.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
ball valve. They should identify the hazards and advice
that should be considered for the different uses and installation/commissioning.
NOTICE
Pneumatic actuators
Single-acting pneumatic actuators with failsafe positions OPEN and CLOSED (type
additional letters in FO and FC) have pretensioned springs for actuation under lack
of pressure.
WARNING
Dismantling of actuators
Wrong dismantling can cause serious injury
or death.
The dismantling of these actuators may be
executed only under guidance of a safety
expert.
Dismounting may only be done in safety
position after disconnecting the air supply.
When working on electric auxiliary components of the pneumatic operation, the
electrical connections of the control voltage
must be disconnected before.
Any necessary live-line adjustments may
only be done with specially insulated tools.
Intended use
The descriptions and instructions in the following apply
to the pneumatic actuators:

WARNING
Intended use
These actuators are intended for use after installation to GF valves and connection to a
control system of the facility. When not used
as prescribed, it can lead to serious injury or
death.
When built into GF valves and connected
to a system control, the purpose of these
actuators is to actuate ball valves with a
control pressure of 2.8 to 7 bar and up to
driving torque of 20 Nm, and
depending on the type of pneumatic actuator, double acting (type designation DA)
or single acting with spring for fail-safe to
CLOSED (type designation FC) or single
acting for fail-safe to FO),
control these valves to the OPEN and
CLOSED positions via a built-in solenoid
valve. The solenoid valve must be either
supplied ex GF works or already mounted
by the customer,
indicate these positions OPEN and
CLOSED via an electric signal to the system control, if the actuator is equipped for
this with the respective subassembly,
enable control of these positions through
manual operation in case of failure in the
compressed air supply, if the actuator is
equipped for this with the respective subassembly.
The actuator is not intended for uses other than those
stated here. Prohibited in particular are:
control pressures above 7.5bar,
manual operation with forces higher than permitted
according to prEN12570 (maximum retention forces
for operation of valves),
operating solenoid valves and position feedback units
under water.
394
NOTICE
Proper function of the actuator
The actuator can only function properly if it
has been connected professionally according to the wiring diagrams for double acting operation and for fail-safe OPEN or failsafe CLOSE operation, respectively. OPEN
or CLOSED fachgerecht angeschlossen
wurde.

Intended use
These actuators are intended for use after installation to GF valves and connection to a
control system of the facility. When not used
as prescribed, it can lead to serious injury or
death.
When built into GF valves and connected
to a system control, the purpose of these
actuators is to actuate ball valves with a
control pressure of 2.8 to 7 bar and up to
driving torque of 20 Nm, and
depending on the type of pneumatic actuator, double acting (type designation DA)
or single acting with spring for fail-safe to
CLOSED (type designation FC) or single
acting for fail-safe to FO),
control these valves to the OPEN and
CLOSED positions via a built-in solenoid
valve. The solenoid valve must be either
supplied ex GF works or already mounted
by the customer,
indicate these positions OPEN and
CLOSED via an electric signal to the system control, if the actuator is equipped for
this with the respective subassembly,
enable control of these positions through
manual operation in case of failure in the
compressed air supply, if the actuator is
equipped for this with the respective subassembly.

Diaphragm valves are well suited for controlling, retaining and monitoring of volume flows. Their advantage
compared to other valve types is their simplicity of function and construction. They can be used for gases and
liquids and are especially well suited for soiled, aggressive and abrasive media.The diaphragm valves can
be installed in any position. There will be no pressure
surges by closing a diaphragm valve. This valve is available as manual valve as well as actuated valve.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
diaphragm valve. They should identify the hazards and
advice that should be considered in the different use
and installation / commissioning.
On request
DANGER
Valve failure due to wrong choice of material
Death or serious injury from contact with the
medium. Valve body, gaskets, diaphragms,
diaphragm support, housing and mechanical components can be damaged or impaired
in their function due to lack of chemical resistance, external influences, wear of the diaphragm or diffusion effects.
Ensure chemical resistance: You can find
the chemical resistance tables in the planning fundamentals. If in doubt, please contact your GF Piping Systems representative.
411
DANGER
NOTICE
DANGER
Diaphragm valve used as end valve
If the ball valve, which functions as an end
valve in a piping system under pressure, is
opened, the medium can exit uncontrollably.
Consequences can be death or serious injury
from contact with the medium.
The diaphragm valve as an end valve may
only be opened when the medium can be
caught or carried off safely and splashing is
prevented by taking appropriate measures.
Commissioning
Observe all technical information and
safety information before installing the diaphragm valve!
NOTICE
Operating the diaphragm valve
Damage of diaphragm valve is possible if the
actuating torque is too high.
Operating the valve with normal hand power
Use no additional tools which increase actuating torque
NOTICE
Fastening the diaphragm valve
Due to temperature changes, longitudinal or
lateral forces may occur through thermal expansion.
Absorb forces via respective fixed points in
front or after the valve.
412
NOTICE
Control operation
Due to cavitation, the diaphragm valve could
be damaged.
Use the valve only under optimal control
operation conditions.
NOTICE
Note
Slight hysteresis occurs in the steady state characteristics when the direction of actuation is changed.
Commissioning procedure
Check that all valves are in the required open or
closed position
Fill the piping system and deaerate completely
The component with the lowest PN determines the
maximum allowable test pressure in the piping section
The valves and connections have to be checked on a
tight seal during the pressure test

Dimensions
The length of the mounting screws is calculated by
adding the length of the thread in the valve base to the
height of the plate and the thickness of the mounting
bracket. Mounting brackets No. 1 and 4 are for plugging
directly into the valve base.

DIASTAR TenPlus
This is our actuator for high performance applications that
require high closing forces. With the DIASTAR TenPlus,
line pressures up to 10 bar on both sides are possible. The
DIASTAR TenPlus is available in all piping and diaphragm
materials and therefore offers maximum flexibility for your
process. Of course it has an accessory interface for easy
system integration.
Product description
Diaphragm valves are well suited for controlling, retaining and monitoring of volume flows. Their advantage
compared to other valve types is their simplicity of function and construction. They can be used for gases and
liquids and are especially well suited for soiled, aggressive and abrasive media. The diaphragm valves can be
installed in any position. This valve is available as manual valve as well as actuated valve.
The new generation of the Georg Fischer DIASTAR
series is the perfect solution for a reliable flow control
at your facility. This series features a combination of
the pneumatic actuator with a valve body of diaphragm
valve types 514 to 519. Its new design combines increased safety and efficiency and easy handling.
Versions

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
diaphragm valve. They should identify the hazards and
advice that should be considered for the different uses
and installation/commissioning.
DANGER
Reducing spring sets
Reduced spring sets lead to a reduced closing force. At a rising line pressure, the valve
cannot close or not close properly due to
missing spring sets. Consequences can be
death or serious injury from contact with the
medium. The process can be influenced negatively.
Configure diaphragm valve and actuator
according to your line pressure.
Commissioning
NOTICE
Operating the diaphragm valve
Use of higher control pressures or mechanical aids can cause damage to the diaphragm
valve.
Use the mentioned control pressures to actuate the diaphragm valve. These as well
as the corresponding control pressure diagrams can be found in the Planning Fundamentals of GF Piping Systems.
DANGER
Diaphragm valve used as end valve
If the ball valve, which functions as an end
valve in a piping system under pressure, is
opened, the medium can exit uncontrollably.
Consequences can be death or serious injury
from contact with the medium.
The end valve may only be opened when
the medium can be caught or carried off
safely and splashing is prevented by taking
appropriate measures.
DANGER
Dismounting the diaphragm valve or
opening the housing nut
The medium may exit uncontrollably or flow
out from the pipe or valve, whether under
pressure or not. The valve or pipe may contain residue or remnants of an aggressive,
hazardous, flammable or explosive medium.
Consequences can be death or serious injury
from contact with the medium.
Release all pressure from the piping system.
Empty the piping system completely.
Rinse the system, if aggressive, hazardous, flammable or explosive media are
involved
Empty the diaphragm valve completely
when is has been dismounted. In order to
do so, let the valve drain completely
NOTICE
Control operation
Due to cavitation, the diaphragm valve could
be damaged.
Use valve only in optimal control operation

3/2 and 5/2-way solenoid valve for activating a double acting
pneumatic actuator. The mounting takes place via a NAMUR
connection. For the dimension range DIASTAR DN15-DN50,
a Namur mounting plate needs to be installed between the
actuator and the pilot valve:
230V, 50-60Hz
115V, 50-60Hz
48V, 50-60Hz
24V, 50-60Hz

Type PV95
3/2-way solenoid valve for controlling single acting pneumatic actuators in the dimensions DN65-DN150. Mounted with a
banjo screw directly on the actuator. For the air connection, a
G1/8" and G14" is available. The solenoid valve is available
in the dimensions DN1.5 and DN2 as well as with the following voltages:
230V, 50-60Hz
115V, 50-60Hz
24V, 50-60Hz
24VDC
PV2000
For simultaneous controlling of several actuators, we offer
the PV2000 valve cluster. The cluster consists of a connecting module, several pilot valves and an end module. Depending on the application you can choose a connecting
module for D-sub connection, AS interface or Profibus. The
modular system allows combining 3/2 and 5/2-way valves as
required by the application.
Feedback
ER55
The ER55 has a Reed contact, which is activated via a magnet in the position indicator. The Reed contact can be set so
that either the open or closed position is indicated. To show
both positions, the ER55 can be retrofitted with a second
Reed contact.

Positioner
DSR 500
The digital positioners of type DSR500 is the ideal product for future control applications using our pneumatic
valves. The microprocessor controlled positioners feature a very compact and uncomplicated design that simplifies installation. The positioners are supplied with or
without optical indicator.

Bus communication
AS Interface
Modern plants with conventional valve control require more
and more installation and maintenance efforts. The GF ASi controller enables state-of-the-art bus communication with
minimum effort. The controller contains all the necessary
electric and pneumatic components. Only a serial cable and
the air connections is all that is to be installed, in order to be
able to independently control up to 62 valves.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
butterfly valve. They should identify the hazards and advice that should be considered for the different uses and
installation/commissioning.
NOTICE
Intended use
Butterfly valves are not recommended for
media containing solids. In control operations, cavitation is to be avoided.
In case of degreasing or sticking media,
butterfly valves can only be used after consultation with a GF Piping Systems representative.
Type 568 to be used as intermediate installation valve or as end valve.
DANGER
Butterfly valve as end valve
When the butterfly valve is opened as end
valve with the piping system under pressure,
the medium may escape uncontrollably! Consequences can be death or serious injury.
The end valve of a piping system under
pressure shall only be opened, when the
medium can be safely collected or diverted,
and when splashing around can be avoided through corresponding measures.
DANGER
Opening or closing the valve
Death or serious injury by jerky opening or
closing the valve
Avoid pressure surges in the piping system, especially when use the hand lever.
For applications with high flow velocities for
manual actuation, use the manual gearbox
version.
449
DANGER
CAUTION
Correct installation
Due to incorrect installation, injuries or death
can occur.
Make sure that the butterfly valves to be installed correspond specifically to the pressure rating, type of connection, dimension
and materials of the particular application.
Carry out a function test: close the butterfly
valve and open it again.
Do not install a butterfly valve which does
not function properly.

DANGER
Selection of lubricants
Improper lubricants can corrode the material
of the butterfly valve or seal. Consequences
can be death or serious injuries.
Never use mineral oil-based greases or
Vaseline (Petrolatum)!
For clean silicone-free butterfly valves, observe the special manufacturers information.
All seals should be lubricated with a silicon-based grease.

Technical features
The name GF stands for reliability and longevity and
has done so for over 200 years. Our products guarantee quality, innovation and functionality. These qualities
have also been incorporated in the design of our new
butterfly valves type 567/568. You will find innovative
ideas in every detail. And every detail meets your specific needs and requirements from a safety, technical
and business point of view.
Double eccentric operating principle
Making a statement is important. Especially when you
do it with innovative details like our new butterfly valve
type 567/568.
Double eccentricity is the answer.
Most butterfly valves are built according to a concentric operating principle, ours have a double eccentric design. This means the disc doesnt touch the seal in the
open position. Thus ensuring low torqueand less wear
and tear. In addition, the double eccentric design protects our butterfly valves even better against pressure
surges. So they have a longer service life and require
less maintenance.
Integrated electrical position feedback
Now, you have a clear overview of your system at all
times. Thanks to our integrated electric position indicator, you always know which valves are open and which
are closed. This contributes greatly to your and your operators safety. The new position indicator integrated in
the mounting flange is a totally new feature for butterfly
valves.
This new integrated feedback concept includes a choice
of five different types of limit switches perfectly suited to
your needs.
Lower actuation torque
Our new butterfly valves have an actuation torque which
is up to 50 % lower than that of our previous model or
that of our competitors. They are therefore easier to operate and you can use smaller, more economical actuators. Since the actuation torque largely depends on the
458
The profile seal has been specially engineered for the double eccentric operating principle. The use of standard O-rings
for sealing the pipeline makes installation easy. No displacement, falling out or folding over as is often the case with
other sealing systems.

Butterfly valve type 037 with hand lever with stepless fine adjustment
Product description
Metal butterfly valves are ideal for shutting off and controlling the flow of liquid media in pipelines. They offer
high temperature and pressure resistance as well as
outstanding resistance to corrosion. Simply a high-performance valve that is reliable and durable. Applications
- including the dimensions DN350 to DN1200 - can be
found in water treatment and the chemical process industry.
Versions
The metal butterfly valves type 037/038/039 can be universally used as open/close or control valve. The easy
installation of the valves between pipe flanges warrants
reliable operation and sealing. The lightweight aluminium valve body has special advantages in transport and
installation.
The Rilsan coating of the valve body and the ductile
iron valve disc provide high resistance against corrosion. The butterfly valves are also available in a standard version with stainless steel valve disc.
The butterfly valves are available as manually operated
valves with hand lever or manual reduction gear, but also with electric or pneumatic actuator. They can be easily retrofit anytime, even when the valve is mounted.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
butterfly valve. They should identify the hazards and advice that should be considered for the different uses and
installation/commissioning.
NOTICE
Intended use
Butterfly valves are not recommended for
media containing solids. In control operations, cavitation is to be avoided.
In case of degreasing or sticking media,
butterfly valves can only be used after consultation with a GF Piping Systems representative.
Type 038 to be used as intermediate installation valve or as end valve.
DANGER
Butterfly valve as end valve
When the butterfly valve is opened as end
valve type 038 with the piping system under
pressure, the medium may escape uncontrollably! Consequences can be death or serious
injury.
The end valve of a piping system under
pressure shall only be opened, when the
medium can be safely collected or diverted,
and when splashing around can be avoided through corresponding measures.
If the valve of type 038 is used as an end
valve, the allowable operating pressure is
reduced to a maximum of 5.6 bar.
DANGER
Opening or closing the valve
Death or serious injury by jerky opening or
closing the valve
Avoid pressure surges in the piping system, especially when use the hand lever.
For applications with high flow velocities for
manual actuation, use the manual gearbox
version.
DANGER
Correct installation
Due to incorrect installation, injuries or death
can occur.
Make sure that the butterfly valves to be installed correspond specifically to the pressure rating, type of connection, dimension
and materials of the particular application.
Carry out a function test: close the butterfly
valve and open it again.
Do not install a butterfly valve which does
not function properly.
NOTICE
Handling of the seals
All sealings (material e.g. EPDM, FPM ) are
of organic materials and react to environmental influences.
They must be stored in their original packaging if possible in a cool, dry and dark
place.
Before installing them, the sealings have to
be checked on possible ageing damages,
such as fissures and hardenings.
Damaged sealings and spare parts must
not come into operation.
DANGER
Selection of lubricants
Improper lubricants can corrode the material
of the butterfly valve or seal. Consequences
can be death or serious injuries.
Never use mineral oil-based greases or
Vaseline (Petrolatum)!
For clean silicone-free butterfly valves, observe the special manufacturers information.
All seals should be lubricated with a silicon-based grease.
463
Dimensions
CAUTION
Pressure test and commissioning
Butterfly valve pressure testing is subject to
the same regulations as the piping systems.
Check that all valves are in the required
open or closed position.
Fill the piping system and deaerate completely.
Pressure must not exceed the value of 1.5
x PN
The valves and connections should be
checked for a tight seal during the pressure
test.

Technical features
Shaft sealing
is warranted due to the special profile of the collar in the
area of the shaft seal. . .
The outer grooves of the collar seal the flange connection, so that no additional flange seals are required.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
ball valve. They should identify the hazards and advice
that should be considered for the different uses and installation/commissioning.
DANGER
Disregarding the general safety instructions for electrical actuators
Non-observance can result in serious injury
or death.
Observe the general safety instructions for
electric actuators.
CAUTION
Intended use of the actuators
When not used as prescribed injuries can occur. When mounted on a valve and connected to a system control, the purpose of this
actuator is to:
actuate valves with 90 pivoting (ball valves
and butterfly valves),
indicate the previously calibrated end positions of the valve via electrical signal to the
system control (accessory), and
provided that the actuator data corresponds to the electrical control and the
valve and
in case of interruption in the supply voltage,
warrant that the actuator/valve remains in
the current position. Please use the emergency manual override or install the failsafe return unit.

Safety information
WARNING
Dismantling of actuators
Wrong dismantling can cause serious injury
or death.
The dismantling of these actuators must
only be executed according to special repair instructions and under guidance of a
safety expert.
Dismounting may only be done in safety
position after disconnecting the air supply.
When working on electric auxiliary components of the pneumatic operation, the
electrical connections of the control voltage
must be disconnected before.
Any necessary live-line adjustments may
only be done with specially insulated tools.
NOTICE
Pneumatic actuators
Single-acting pneumatic actuators with failsafe positions OPEN and CLOSED (type
additional letters in FO and FC) have pretensioned springs for actuation under lack
of pressure.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
ball valve. They should identify the hazards and advice
that should be considered for the different uses and installation/commissioning.
NOTICE
Pneumatic actuators
Single-acting pneumatic actuators with failsafe positions OPEN and CLOSED (type
additional letters in FO and FC) have pretensioned springs for actuation under lack
of pressure.
WARNING
Dismantling of actuators
Wrong dismantling can cause serious injury
or death.
The dismantling of these actuators must
only be executed according to special repair instructions and under guidance of a
safety expert.
Dismounting may only be done in safety
position after disconnecting the air supply.
When working on electric auxiliary components of the pneumatic operation, the
electrical connections of the control voltage
must be disconnected before.
Any necessary live-line adjustments may
only be done with specially insulated tools.
500
Intended use
This actuator is intended, after being mounted on the
valve, after mounting of a solenoid valve and after the
connection of this solenoid valve to a system control,
under the condition that a control pressure of at least
5.6 bar, but not more than 7.7 bar at the solenoid
valve is present permanently,
to actuate valves withwith 90 pivoting (ball valves
and butterfly valves).
Manual pneumatic actuator PA30 - PA90
Actuators without spring accumulator remain in the
current position in case of a loss of the control pressure.
Actuators with spring accumulator go into safety position, in case of failure or after switching off the control
pressure, depending on the version of the actuator.
The actuator is not intended for uses other than those
stated here. Non-observance of the instructions contained in this manual will void the manufacturer's liability for the products mentioned above.

CAUTION
Angle seat valve as end valve
If the angle seat valve which functions as an
end valve in a piping system under pressure
is opened, the medium can exit uncontrollably! Consequences can be serious injuries.
The end valve in a pressure-bearing system may only be opened when the medium can be caught or carried off safely and
splashing is prevented by taking the appropriate measures.

Safety information
The following safety instructions apply specifically to the
angle seat valve. They should identify the hazards and
advice that should be considered for the different uses
and installation/commissioning.
510
CAUTION
Pressure Test and Commissioning
Angle seat valve pressure testing is subject
to the same regulations as the piping system. Detailed information can be found in the
Georg Fischer Planning Fundamentals. Alsoapplicable:
Check that all valves are in the required
open or closed position.
Fill the piping system and deaerate completely.
The test pressure on a valve must not exceed the value 1.5 x PN, maximum (PN +
5 bar). The component with the lowest PN
determines the maximum allowable test
pressure in the piping section.
The valves and connections should be
checked for a tight seal during the pressure
test.
Dimensions
DANGER
Selection of lubricants
Improper lubricants can corrode the material
of the butterfly valve or seal. Consequences
can be serious injuries.
Never use mineral oilbased greases or
Vaseline!
For angle seat valves used in varnishing
applications, please consult the special
manufacturers instructions.
All seals should be lubricated with a silicon-based grease.

In addition to the self-heating of the coil, applicationspecific factors or operating data also have a major influence on the achievable overall temperature of the
coil:
Ambient temperature
Medium temperature
Medium type (fluid or gaseous)
Heat radiation capacity (encapsulation)
Continuous operation or reduced duty
With continuous operation and normal ambient temperature (20 C) of a solenoid valve, temperatures on the
surface of 80-90 C or even higher may be achieved.
The maximum operating data (ambient temperature
and medium temperature, etc.) is thus specified under Technical Data in the relevant data sheets for the
valve types.

Without lubrication leads to friction and to limited lifetime
Separation of media leads to
limited pressure range
With overstretched coil
At high system pressures and with large nominal diameters, it would also be necessary to have higher magnetic
forces and electrical control power values in direct-acting solenoid valves. The larger solenoid coils required
for this would increase the overall weight and overall
size. Consequently, servoassisted valves are used.
In the case of servo-assisted solenoid valves, a main
valve is controlled by a solenoid-operated pilot valve
with smaller flow cross-sections and lower electrical
control power. This control can comprise either a 2/2way pilot valve or a 3/2-way pilot valve. The main valve
uses a diaphragm or a piston as a moving closure element for opening and closing the fluid path.
Depending on the design, a low pressure differential is
required to open the full cross-section. This principle is
used primarily with 2/2-way valves, both normally closed
and normally open. The valve can be operated in only
one flow direction. The back-pressure tightness is very
low.

With the new check valve from GF Piping Systems everything is under control. The new design combines increased safety and efficiency with easy handling. The
check valves of type 561 and 562 pave the way for a
new generation of valves, which impress with safety,
simplicity and efficiency. They mark a milestone in vale
technology. The two check valves of type 561 and type
562 easily fit in all piping systems thanks to our comprehensive product range. Whether in water treatment,
chemical process industry or for cooling applications,
check valves from Georg Fischer can be found almost
everywhere, where reliable performance is required.
With their versatile choice of materials and die the high
pressure level, the check valves of type 561 and type
562 fulfil numerous requirements of many common applications. The self-closing function and the silent operation of the valve underline safety and comfort.
Versions
Safety
The spring within the valve (type 562) guarantees
100% leakproofness when the valve is in idle mode,
even without medium pressure and mounted horizontally.
Type 561 (no spring) is already 100% leakproof at a
water column of 2m
The double bearing prevents a jamming of the check
cone.
The gasket always remains in the same position, fixed
by a support ring. This prevents slipping, bending or
erosion of the gasket.
Corrosion resistance
Simplicity
The check valves 561 and 562 are self-closing. There
is no need for an energy source other than the existing medium pressure for opening or closing the valve
at any given time.
Same installation length as ball valve type 546, 546
Efficiency
Thanks to the aerodynamic design of the check cone,
the valve permits a far higher flow rate than standard
check valves with a ball.
With the extensive range of options you can be sure to
find the check valve that perfectly suits your requirements:
All jointing methods are available and leave nothing to
be desired
Depending on your field of application, you may
choose among various types of materials for the valve
body, the cone and the spring
The new generation of check valves are available with
ISO, BS, ASTM, ANSI and JIS connection standards
The GF Piping Systems check valve enables safe, efficient and easy transport of media.

Safety information
Check valves type 561 and 562 from Georg Fischer are
intended exclusively for shutting off and conducting media in the allowable pressure and temperature range in
piping systems into which they have been installed. The
maximum operating time is 25 years.
CAUTION
Check valves are not suitable for use with

Arrows
The arrow on the valve housing indicates the
direction of the flow. For application with vertical flow, only an upward flow is permitted,
i.e. the arrow must point upward. If installed
in the opposite direction, the shut off function
is not warranted, and serious injuries might
be a consequence.
Observe the arrow information and explanation
WARNING
Connection methods
Only identical materials may be joined together via welded or adhesive joints. Noncompliance can lead to serious injuries.
Sections of pipework with adhesive joints
should be rinsed with non-pressurized water as soon as possible after completion of
the joints.
The union nuts on the valve should be
tightened hand tight.

NOTICE
Opening and closing conditions
The information in the table apply to water or water-like media with a density of approximately 1g/cm. If media with a higher
density are used, make sure that the cone
can float depending on the material used
and that the closing function of the cone is
no longer granted. This is dependent on
the material used.
The values for the opening conditions apply to vertical installation (->recommended
installation location). For horizontal installation, the valve opens at much lower differential pressures.

Check valves require no maintenance under normal operating conditions. It is enough to control periodically, if
there is no leakage. Should leakage or other malfunctions occur, follow the instructions under Safety information.
We recommend a function test for check valves which
are kept permanently in the same position 12 x a year
to check serviceability.

Safety information
These Georg Fischer angle seat check valves of type
303/304 are intended exclusively for shutting off and
conducting media in the allowable pressure and temperature range in piping systems into which they have been
installed. The maximum operating time is 25 years.
CAUTION
Check valves are not suitable for use with
media containing solids.
properly, the flow must be evenly distributed over the pipe cross-section. If necessary (after pumps, changes in direction) a
turbulence-free section should be allowed
for. Cavitation should be avoided.
WARNING
Arrows
The arrow on the valve housing indicates the
direction of the flow. For application with vertical flow, only an upward flow is permitted,
i.e. the arrow must point upward. If installed
in the opposite direction, the shut off function
is not warranted, and serious injuries might
be a consequence.
Observe the arrow information and explanation
DANGER
Removal of the angle seat check valve
The medium may exit uncontrollably from
the pipe or the valve, whether under pressure or not,the medium may flow out of
the open pipe, and the valve may contain
residues or remnants of aggressive, hazardous, flammable or explosive media. Consequences can be death or serious injuries.
Remove all pressure from the piping system
Empty the piping system completely
Rinse the piping system, if aggressive,
hazardous, flammable or explosive media
are inside the system,
DANGER
Lubricants
False lubricants can corrode the material of
the angle seat check valve or the seal. Consequences can be death or serious injuries.
Never use mineral oil-based greases or
Vaseline (Petrolatum)!
All seals should be lubricated with a silicon-based grease.

The V82, V182 and V782pressure reducing valves reduce the pressure within the system to a pre-set value.
By using the differential pressure, the pressure reducing
valve adjusts itself to the set working pressure.
The outlet pressure (working pressure) is not directly related to the inlet pressure. If the outlet pressure increases or decreases above/below the desired value, the diaphragm is lifted against the spring force or pressed
down by the spring force, as the case may be, by the
outlet pressure. The pressure reducing valve begins to
close/open until a state of equilibrium is re-established;
in other words, the outlet pressure remains constant
irrespective of an increasing or decreasing inlet pressure.
The wide range of materials available for the housings (PVC-U, PP, PVDF) and the diaphragms (EPDM,
EPDM-PTFE-coated) cover many areas of application for technically pure, neutral and aggressive fluids
as well as ultrapure water applications. For more information, please refer to the GF Piping Systems List
of Chemical Resistance. We recommend installing a
strainer upstream to avoid any breakdowns.

Product description
All parts which come into contact with the medium are
made of highly resistant plastics.
The actuator is separated and hermetically sealed off
from the flow section by the control diaphragm.
The working pressure is set with an adjusting screw
and locked with a locknut.
The streamlined design of the housing makes for
good flow rates.
The large control surface and the spiral spring keep
standard tolerances small.
No auxiliary energy is required to operate the valve.
The valve is largely maintenance-free and can be installed in any position.
Valve can also be adjusted under working pressure.

NOTICE
Secondary pressure
If the secondary pressure is further increased
by counter pressure, the pressure reducing
valveacts asa check valve. This back pressure can eventually lead to the destruction of
the valve piston.
Do not increase the secondary pressure

Example
Example 1: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (see dotted line in diagram)
For a flow rate of approx. 3500 l/hr, an outlet pressure
(working pressure) of 4 bar is required. Inlet pressure
min. 5 bar or greater.
Look for the given flow rate on the x axis of the respective nominal diameter curve. When the appropriate
curve has been found, check if the valve is in the desired pressure range (here 4 bar).
In this example, the hysteresis would be 0.5 bar and the
pressure drop 1 bar.
Example 2: .....................(see dotted line in diagram)
The valve is adjusted at a desired pressure of 3 bar at 0
conveyance. If we assume a flow rate of 2500 l/hr, the
pressure drop in the valve would be approx. 0.8 bar.

Reasons for air in the piping system
During operation, dissolved air can be released into
the system through pumps, valves, fittings and other
pipe components.
When filling tanks and pipelines, air inclusions may
occur.
Pressure drops or temperature increases can release
dissolved air.

Safety information
CAUTION
Disregarding the application area
Minor injuries and material damage by violating the permitted uses of the VAFM
Use VAFM only in prescribed areas of operation.
VAFM are not recommended for media containing solids.
WARNING
Disregarding the intended use
Serious injury by ignoring the intended use
Compliance with the stated limits for pressure and temperature and chemical resistance.
NOTICE
Flow conditions
To avoid unstable flow conditions, a damping zone is to be considered before and after the float type flow meter.
To convert the units of flow for the variable
area flow meter, please refer to the conversion table "Delivery volume" in the Appendix of the planning fundamentals.
DANGER
Pressure surges
Death or serious injury due to the occurrence
of pressure surges.
Avoid pressure surges
Only use appropriate media.

Please use this table to adjust the displayed values for gaseous media of your flow meter, if the specific media gravity differs from the underlying specific gravity of 1.293 kg/Nm3 (air)) at calibrating time.
Example:
Specific gravity at calibrating time is 1.293 kg/Nm (air).
The media hydrogen with its specific gravity of 0.089
kg/Nm has to be measured. From the column calibrating gases/air, in line seven for operating gases/hydrogen, you obtain the factor 3.81. The values shown by

Please use this chart to adjust the displayed values for liquid media of your flow meter, if the specific media gravity
differs from the underlying specific gravity of 1.0 kg/l (water) at calibrating time.
Example:
Specific gravity at calibration 1.0 kg/l (water). The liquid media with a specific gravity of 0.9 kg/l is to be measured. If you have a calibrating solution of 1.0 kg/l, you
can find the factor 1.06 in column 5 under operating liquid density 0.9kg/l. The values shown by the flow meter have to be multiplied by this factor so the actual flow
volume at a specific gravity of 0.9 can be calculated.
Note:
New density is higher: factor<1
Newdensity is lower : factor >1
Accessories
Limit contacts
The limit contacts serve for monitoring externally the limited flow values and
can be adjusted to any flow value on the corresponding scale. The magnet
built into the float closes or opens a reed contact in the limit contact.
When subsequently mounting limit contacts, mind that you have to replace the
standard float with a magnetic float.
The limit contacts GK10/ GK11 are only suitable for the VAFM type 335/ 350
as well as the short version of the existing range. The same contact type
cannot be used for monitoring both the min. and max. levels. (GK 10min /
GK11max)

Installation note
If the actuator is connected directly to the
power supply, it is necessary to install a
switch-disconnector between the actuator
and the power supply (do not disconnect
the earth cable). Cross section of the feed
lines max. 1.5 mm. To avoid water permeation into the actuator, make sure that the
cable entry is not directed upward
Due to the loading of the power supply capacitor, when first time switching on the actuator current peaks can occur for a few
micro seconds. Therefore we recommend
to connect the catuator in accordance with
accompanying wiring diagram.

Single acting, fail-safe OPEN and
CLOSE (type description FO and FC )
pneumatic actuators have pre-loaded springs that bring the valve into the
predefined position in case of compressed air loss.
Product features
Safety information
Intended use
Type PA21
634
Dismantling these actuators is dangerous and may only be done by following special repair instructions (available from +GF+) and under the guidance of a safety expert.
Dismounting from the valve may only be done in the
safety position after cutting off the compressed air supply. Prior to any work on the electric subassemblies of
the pneumatic actuator, the electrical connections of the
control voltage have to be disconnected. Any necessary
live-line adjustments may only be done with specially insulated tools.
Furthermore, the operating instructions of the manual
valve must also be observed. They are an integral component of this manual.

The stroke limiter is mounted ex works and enables limiting the actuating angle up to 45 alternatively in the
closed or open direction for the FC and FO functions.
For the DA function, limitation is only possible in the
open direction.

Note
Please observe the following:
For the correct functioning of the actuator, the position
of the actuator must correspond with the position of the
valve.
Actuator open >Valve open
Actuator closed >Valve closed
When installing an actuator with a GF ball valve, it is important to note the position of the ball valve spigot.

Further learning runs can be done between the end positions (depending on the switching cams S1 and S2).
The way in whichthe jumper is placed on the position
signalling determines if the learning run happens with
360 or if it happens between the end positions.
Jumper connects both PINs:
When position signal is mounted at the factory, a learning run with 360 has been
already done. In this case the jumper is
placed on only one pin. When the position
signal is mounted by the customer, a 360
learning run has to be done. Therefore
the two pins need to be connected by the
jumper.
Subsequent modifications on the
switching cams require a new learning
run.
Before doing the learning run, set the jumper so it connects the two pins. Complete thelearning run. Then reset the jumper to its original position and remount the
actuator.
Performing a learning run
Press the button (5) on the board for approx. 2 s. The
LED (6) will go out briefly. As soon as the LED lights up
again, release the button. The actuator will then do a
learning run.

AS interface
Introduction
AS Interface (short ASi) stands for actuator/sensor interface andbelongs to the standard field buses. It was designed to connect actuators and sensors and therefore
is used only on the bottom levelof the control system.
The goal was to replace the parallel wiring. Since 1999,
it is standardized according to the international standards: EN 50295 and IEC 62026-2.
Typical for the ASi is the yellow cable.
With AS-i, there is no restriction in the wiring structure.
The ASi is a single master system which means there is
only one master in a system. This master polls its configured slaves cyclically and exchanges input and output
data.

Electrical connections
For the electrical connection of the control signal line
(set-point), a twisted cable is recommended. The connection of the supply voltage should be carried out via
a second, separate cable, also, the system should be
grounded (earth connection on the board). After removing the cover on the positioner, the screw terminals for
the individual connections can be accessed (see also
wiring diagram).

Actuating variable
Disturbance variable
Control process
Controller
Closed loop controlling is a procedure where the controlled variable is recorded continuously, compared with
another variable (set point) andadapted to that value.
Control engineering is usually used, if the following variables have to be controlled:
Flow
Pressure
Temperature
Fill level
Ratio control (e.g. mixing of media)
The most suitable way to explain the basics of automatic control technique is an example:
Heating example
A user of a room heating opens the heating valve until,
according to experience, 20C ambient temperature are
achieved. Due to the valve position, the heating output
and flow rate are defined. But the actually achieved ambient temperature is affected by general conditions like
opened or closed windows. However, the changing temperature does not influence the heating valve position.
This target and actual temperature deviation does not
influence the heating valve and so in control technique it
is called an open loop (open action flow).
If the user wants to achieve the exactly room temperature, the open loop of the room heating must be completed with a controller. The controller function can
be adopted by the user. If the ambient temperature
is above or below thedesired 20C, the valve can be
opened or closed by the user. However, the controller,
the user, knows the temperature difference and attempts to override it. Through theaction of the user,
a closed process (closed loop, closed action flow) is
generated,which is characteristic for automatic control technique. New heating systems are of course controlled by thermostats.
Control process
-behaviour
The time factor is irrelevant in this process.
Terminology
690
-behaviour
In the control engineering, the span of time, which
passed by till a change on the input receives the output of a control process, is called dead time. This is the
time, in the heating example, which the user needs to
readjust the heating valve to get the desired temperature (set point).
Advantages
-behaviour
The actuating variable in the I control process is never zero. Thereforean equilibrium condition can not be
achieved. Consequently, the controlled variable constantly rises or falls. This is the behaviour of a control
process without equilibrium.
Simple design
Easy adjustment
Very stable controlling if the right dimension is chosen
Disadvantages
Enduring control deviation due to disturbancescan
not be compensated completely
Unsuitable for control process with dead time only
I controller
If the control deviation has to the adjusted completely,
an I controller is recommendable.The actuating variable
y rises slowly, while the actuating variable on a P controller achieves its final value immediately.Thus,the I
controller responses todisturbance slowly.
Controller
Controllers affect a control process with a control signal so that controlled variable and set point values are
equal. Thus, a controller consists of a comparing and
controlling element. Generating the actuating variable
y from the system deviation e is done by the controlling
element.
Controllers differ from each other, depending on their
function to adopt actuating variables. Typically, controllers are classified in continuous and non-continuous
controllers.
Continuous controller
P controller
I controller
D controller
PI controller
PD controller
Advantage
No enduring control deviation
D controller
Non-continuous controller
On/Off controller
Two-Step controller
Three-Step Controller
Multi-Step Controller
...
Continuous controller
P controller
The system deviation eon P controllers is always proportional to the actuating variable y. Therefore a P controller can react to changes without time loss and generates an actuating variable only if a system deviation exists.
The D controller is only usedin combination with the Pand/or I controller. It isnot responding to the control deviation, but to its rate of change.
Advantage
Disadvantages
Disadvantage
Does not recognise enduring control deviation
691
PI controller
The PI controller combines the advantages of the Pand I controller. It is often used in practice, since most
of the control tasks can be solved. In case short actuating times are required, despite control path delays,a
PID controller should be chosen.
Non-continuous controller
Advantages
No enduring control deviation
Useable for almost all control processes
On/Off controller
To actuate a control process, On/Off Controllers with relays or solenoid valves are often used. This closed-loop
control operates without setting up control parameters
and is cost-saving. However, it should only be used with
low requirements regarding the quality of control.
Disadvantage
Complex design and adjustment compared to a P
controller
PD controller
A PD controller is used, if a P controller is not sufficient due to its enduring control deviation, e.g. in control paths with long delay. This can be the case in control processes with large delays, for instance. Because
of its D part the actuating speed is higher compared to a
P controller and generates a bigger control dynamic.
Two-Step controller
This controller represents an enhancement of the On/
Off Controller.As indicated by the name, the controller
can adopt only two initial states (actuating variables).
The difference is within the frequency of the cycle of operation. A common example for Two-Step controlling is
space heating. Here, an expanding element controls the
flow in the valve.
Advantage
PD controllers are very fast
Disadvantage
Enduring control deviation limits the field of application.
PID controller
The PID controller is suitable for control processes with
large energy storages and thus for control processes of
higher order. The positive attributes of PD and PI controller are combined within this controller.
Advantages
692
Three-Step Controller
The Three-Step Controller can adopt three different initial states. For example in a heating system the states
On and Off can be enhanced with the state Cooling. According to that, the controller inherits the function of two coupled Two-Step Controllers which switch
in different states.
Valve applications often use Three-Step Controllers in
junction with electric actuators. With the three possible
actuating variables an actuator can run the valve in any
desired position, like the states counter-clockwise for
e.g. opening, clockwise for e.g. closing and off.

Start conditions
A stable condition is required for the evaluation of the
control process.. Therefore, the controller waits until
the process has reached a stable condition after selftuning start. The rest condition is considered being
reached, when the process value oscillation is smaller
than 0.5% of ([rnG.H]- [rnG.L]).
Start
Self-tuning start can be blocked via BlueControl Software.
The operator can start self-tuning at any time. For this,
keys [Enter] and [Up] must be pressed simultaneously
until the AdA LED starts blinking.

The Signet 4630 Chlorine Analyser System is an integrated all-in-one system designed to measure free chlorine. The 3-4630-21 chlorine panel with the optional
pH sensor is used to accurately calculate free chlorine
in applications that have varying pH values (0.20 pH
units).
In applications where the pH is stable, the pH sensor is
not required and the pH value is manually entered into
the transmitter to calculate the chlorine levels. (-20 version).
The unique integrated clear flow cell combines sensors,
flow regulator, filter and variable area flow indicator in
one compact unit. An integrated flow regulator with removable filter accepts inlet pressures of 1 to 8 bar (15
to 120 psi), while maintaining constant flow and minimal
pressure to the sensors.
Water flows vertically into sensor tip eliminates bubble entrapment. The flow cell is designed to maintain a
minimum amount of water to ensure sensors stay submerged, even when the system and flow is turned off.
The Signet 4630 Chlorine Analyser System allows quick
setup and easy installation and is supplied with a 100240 VAC power supply, two 4 to 20 mA outputs and
two dry contact mechanical relays. The flow cell accommodates two sensors; one chlorine and an optional pH
sensor.

Turbidity Installation
An owner's manual is included with every instrument
that ships. Please refer to this manual for detailed instructions regarding installation and operation. The instrument includes a mounting braket designed for the
instrument to mount on a vertical surface.
This was made simpler by having pre-drilled mounting
holes on a pattern common with instruments used for
this measurement. A pattern hole template is also included with the instrument when new mounting holes
are required.
Plumbing
Use 8 mm (5/16 in.) OD, 5 mm (3/16 in.) IDflexible
tubing for the water supply connections.
Opaque tubing (not supplied) should be used to prevent algae growth if the tubing will be exposed to sunlight.
The 4150 requires only 1 psi head pressure to operate.
The flow through cuvette is rated for a flow of 100 mL/
m to 1 L/m (0.026 - 0.26 GPM).
The integral pressure regulator is rated for a maximum pressure of 200 psi. It is factory adjusted. Do
not tamper with the regulator.
Inlet water pressure should not exceed 50 psi to avoid
damage to the tubing connection to the regulator.
Fluid temperature must not exceed 50 C (122 F).
The shutoff clamp is used to interrupt the flow during
cuvette maintenance.
route the sensor drain tubing to a suitable drain.
Do not reintroduce the drain sample to the process
stream.
Use Signet fittings for proper insertion into the process flow.
Recommended up-stream distances are stated as
a multiplier of the I.D. (inner diameter) dimension of
the pipe. Note that these multipliers are different for
each example and depend upon the upstream obstruction.
Paddlewheel sensors can be used for all water-like
fluids with little or no particulates (100 micron in diameter/length), and non-ferrous, non-fouling in nature.
Always use these sensors in full pipes.
Always maximize the distance between sensors and
pump sources.
II. Mounting Angle
Paddlewheel sensors are affected by the mounting angle due to the effect of gravity increasing the friction
between rotor and bearing surfaces. Air entrapment
and sediment within the pipe may also adversely affect
sensing accuracy and/or impede operation.
Paddlewheels in Vertical pipes:
Power
The power required is 100 - 240 volts AC at 47 - 63 Hz.
The output is a single programmable 4 to 20 mA DC instrument signal that is in direct proportion to the turbidity. Also provided are two programmable alarm relay
outputs, one for high process alarm and the other for
low process alarm sense. Note, both alarms are used in
common to indicate an instrument malfunction, i.e. High
Humidity.
730
45 from vertical is the recommended sensor mounting angle to avoid air bubbles (pipe must be full). With
the sensor at greater angles, the drag created by the
rotor resting against the sensor body may compromise performance at the lower end of the operating
range.
Straight up installations may experience interference
from entrained air at the top of the pipe.
Inverted installations are often subject to blockage
due to sediments in the pipe. Mounting sensors in the
bottom of the pipe is NOT recommended if sediments
are likely to be in the pipe.
K-Factors
K-Factors are calibration values (pulses per unit of volume) used to convert flow sensor output frequencies to
flow rates. Signet publishes K-Factors for water only in
gallons (pulses per gallon) and liters (pulses per liter) for
all sensors, in all applicable pipe sizes and materials,
and/or all applicable installation fitting sizes and materials. K-Factors for fluids other than water must be determined empirically, typically on-site using a secondary
standard.
Ensure that all wetted materials are chemically compatible with the process liquid.
Pressure and temperature ratings are reduced when
plastic flow sensors are mounted in metal piping systems.
The flow sensor is designed to fit tightly into the fittings. Lightly lubricate o-rings with a non-petroleum
based lubricant to ease the installation.
Cut the cable to the desired length if too long. Do not
coil extra cable.
731
525 Metalex
This section outlines the installation fittings available
from Signet for the 525 Metalex family of flow sensors. The fitting controls the location of the paddlewheel inside the pipe, which in turn determines the
calibration constant (K-Factor).
Refer to the Fittings section of this catalog for a complete listing of part numbers.

Definition of pH
pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration in aqueous solutions. The common pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral
water (H2O). At pH 7, hydrogen ions (H ) exist in equal
concentration to hydroxyl ions (OH ). A solution is considered to be acidic if the concentration of H exceeds
that of OH , and is indicated by pH values below 7. Conversely, a solution is considered to be basic if the concentration of H is less than that of OH , and is indicated
by pH values above 7.

Definition of ORP
ORP is an abbreviation for Oxidation-Reduction Potential. Oxidation is a term used to denote the occurrence
of a molecule losing an electron. Reduction occurs as a
molecule gains an electron. The potential is simply an
indication of a solutions propensity to contribute or accept electrons. ORP reactions (sometimes referred to
as REDOX) always take place simultaneously. There is
never oxidation without reduction, and ORP electrodes
are used to detect electrons exchanged by molecules
as these reactions occur.
Both pH and ORP electrodes produce voltages that depend on the solutions in contact with their sensing ends.
Most pH electrodes, including theGF Signet brand,
are designed to produce 0 mV at pH 7, positive mV below pH 7 (associated with the charge of the hydrogen
ion, H ) and negative mV above pH 7 (associated with
the charge of the hydroxyl ion, OH ). According to the
Nernst equation, the interval between each pH unit is
approximately 59.16 mV at 25 C. This raw output is
converted to a pH value by the display instrument. The
ORP scale is typically - 1000 mV to +1000 mV, and the
electrodes produce these values directly.

bromine, cyanide, chromate, and many other chemical
reactions.
Principle of Operation
Standard pH/ORP electrode: GF Signet offers three different groups of standard pH/ORP electrode models,
2724 - 2726, and 2774 - 2777
Differential pH/ORP electrodes function similar to the
standard (combination) electrodes, but the reference
design is modified and there is a third electrode, the
solution ground. The pH and reference electrodes are
measured against the solution ground. The solution
ground drains stray currents away from the reference element, hence maintaining a steady signal at all times.
The reference salt bridge slows or stops various chemical elements from leaching into the reference chamber. Chemicals that leach in may dilute the electrolyte
but will not react with the glass-encased reference sil-
754
quantities of HF (<2 %), use theSignet 3-2726-HFelectrode. This electrode has a polymeric constituent
in the pH glass that resists attack by HF and extends
the service life considerably over normal electrodes.
In applications where process temperatures will drop
below 10 C (50 F), use the bulb-style electrodes in
place of the flat-style electrode. This is a function of
the electrical impedance of the glass that increases
dramatically as temperature decreases.
Proper electrode placement within a tank is also very
important. Electrodes should be mounted in wellmixed areas, away from reagent and waste introduction. It is usually advisable to position the electrode
near the discharge outlet of the tank.
In-line pH control is not recommended because it is
very difficult to determine the amounts of reagent necessary to achieve a desired reaction if both pH and
flow are variables. However, in-line pH monitoring is
very common and useful.

Section: Conductivity/Resistivity
Information in this section addresses frequently asked
questions regarding conductivity (resistivity) and is provided as REFERENCE ONLY to supplement procedures and recommendations specifically outlined in individual product instruction manuals. All manuals, data
sheets, and additional helpful information are available
at www.gfsignet.com.
Principle of Operation
-1
Temperature Compensation
The conductivity of a solution is highly dependent upon
temperature. Therefore, conductivity measurements are
almost always converted to an equivalent conductivity
at the common reference temperature of 25 C (77 F).
This is accomplished by means of temperature compensation algorithms in the instruments, which require
temperature as well as conductivity measurement input.
To simplify and facilitate this requirement allGF Signet
conductivity electrodes contain high-quality temperature
sensing elements intelligently positioned for quick and
accurate response.
Temperature effects on conductivity are more or less
linear for normal water-based solutions, hovering
around 2 % per C. However, the actual linear relation-
756
conditions for reliable continuous conductivity measurements. If the application is such that sediment is likely to
accumulate on the bottom of the tank, then position the
electrode to avoid it being smothered by debris.
The two basic installation configurations for conductivity electrodes are in-line and submersible. In-line configuration refers to installation into a piping system as opposed to submersion in a tank. In either case the primary considerations are to minimise the propensity for air
entrapment inside and/or around the electrode and to
position the electrode for representative exposure to the
process.
In-Line Installation
For in-line configurations it is best to install the electrode
in the dead leg of a tee fitting. That is, use a tee fitting
in place of an elbow and install the electrode in the horizontal plane. Best results will be obtained if fluid flows
into and around, then up and away from the electrode.
Be sure that at least one of the holes in a flow-through
electrode is facing upward to allow air bubbles to escape.
Maintenance Tips
757
Relay Information
The two most common methods of controlling a process
are on/off and proportional control. In on/off control,
relay setpoints are defined as either high or low limits
on the process variable. When the measurement value reaches a limit the relay is energized, typically for
the purpose of opening a valve or starting a pump to introduce a chemical reagent to the process. This should
cause the measurement value to change in the direction of the setpoint as shown in these on/off control diagrams:
High limit on/off relay control
and improve precision. Establishing a proportional control scenario requires the selection of setpoint(s), deviation range(s) and maximum pulse rates. The example
shown here illustrates how two relays in pulse mode
can be used to proportionally control pH within a desired
range, or to a single setpoint. This is called Dual Proportional Control. Of course, a single relay in proportional pulse mode can be used to establish a high or low
limit and will also reduce overshoot.
Metering pumps are idle at and between setpoints.
When a setpoint is exceeded, the pump begins delivering reagent at a rate proportional to the difference between the measurement value and the setpoint. The
larger the difference, the faster the delivery. The programmed deviation value defines how quickly the maximum pulse rate is reached. Depending on the input requirements of the metering pump, proportional control
can also be accomplished with scaleable 4 to 20 mA
outputs instead of pulsing relays or open collectors.
Dual proportional pulse relay control
1. Function
Open Collector (OC) outputs are low-powered, solid state switches. Although the term Open Collector
stipulates the use of bipolar transistors (NPN-type or
PNP-type) as a switch, nowadays Field Effect Transistors (FET or MOSFET) are used. Unlike electromechanical switches (e. g. pushbuttons or dry contact relays)
these OC switches are very fast, use little power, are
inexpensive, do not bounce and do not wear. However, OCs are also more limited in terms of voltage and
current rating as well as being polarized (i. e. they have
a plus and minus terminal and thus DC only switching capability). They are less tolerant to overload abuse
than electromechanical devices. Usually these switches
have higher resistance and voltage drop.
2. Sensor Wiring
Open collector control and alarm outputs onSignet instruments (i. e. ProcessPro or ProPoint series) are electrically isolated from the instruments power supply.
That means these can be used in the above mentioned
NPN configuration as well as in PNP configuration, if required. Below are a few sample circuits:
PLC wiring NPN style
As mentioned before, the supply voltage in the OC output circuit MUST be limited to the specified maximum
OC voltage (see operating manual for specific instrument). The use of a quality regulated 5 V, 12 V or 24 V
(depending on the application) power supply is recommended.
Depending on the stability of the main power line and
the location, it may be necessary to use additional overvoltage protection components or lightning arrestors.
Similarly, the current through the open collector switch
must be limited. Typical OC outputs allow only for 10 to
50 mA switch current (please consult manual). Exceeding this current limit can burn out the OC output components immediately. Please see the following section on
how to dimension the loads.
By utilising basic arithmetic and Ohms law, one can determine the safe limits of load resistance. When the OC
switch is closed, almost the entire supply voltage is applied to the load, (i. e. the pull-up or pull-down resistor,
the alarm horn input, a potential power relay coil or annunciator lamp). The resulting current through the load
and through the OC switch, as well, can be calculated
as:
(Current) = (Supply Voltage)/(Load Resistance)
Example 1:
759
6. Transient Protection
Depending on the desired function of the circuit attached to the OC output, it may be necessary to have
the OC output switch turned on or off when the criteria for the activation of this output are met.
By default, GF Signet instruments are set to operate in
active low mode. This means when the user-defined
condition for the activation is met (e. g. exceeding of
an alarm limit) the OC switch is turned on. If wired as
standard NPN-style output (see previous page) the
logic level of the attached control system or PLC input
consequently becomes low logic level.
If a high input logic level is required for activation, it can
be accomplished in two ways:
wire the OC output PNP style as described on the
previous page
change the OC output function to active high in the
menu system of the instrument. Most Signet instruments allow for this option.
8. Fail-Safe Behaviour
760
RC Filter
RC Filter kits are recommended when using a Signet
transmitter or controller with mechanical relays, and/or
the external relay module 3-8059 to switch on and off
inductive loads. Signet RC filter kits provide protection
and extend the life of the relay by preventing premature
wearing of of the relay contacts, usually caused by voltage/current arching and line noises generated by the
activation and deactivation of mechanical relays.
RC filter kit (3-8050.396) comes with two RC filter assemblies.

Note: The pressure/temperature graphs are specifically for the Signet sensor. During system design the specifications of all components must be considered. In the
case of a metal piping system, a plastic sensor will reduce the system specification. When using a PVDF sensor in a PVC piping system, the fitting will reduce the
system specification.

Characteristics
The connection benefit
Environmental awareness and increased safety standards are becoming evermoreimportant in today's society.
Personal injury, property damage and environmental
pollution, caused by leakages, are key concerns that
have led us, as a piping system supplier, to design
asuitable system to reduce potentialhazards.
To ensure plant safety in the conveyance of hazardous
liquids jeopardizing personnel, process and environment, piping systems are needed which offer the optimal chemical resistance and which signal and collect
any leakage which may occur.
The patented double containment jointing technique allows fitting of the double containment pipe to the single
pipe according to the same directives and guidelines
from the DVS (German association for jointing) as for
780
The regulation concerning the protection of disturbances ( 3, General Safety Measures) stating that
companies are subject to take all measures in order to
minimize risks. By definition, these measures are the
decrease of the risk potential, the avoidance of disturbances and limitation of interferences in the nature.
The federal law about the prevention of water pollution
( 22, General Requirements) states that owners of installations conveying liquids hazardous to waters have
to make sure that all measures are taken to protect waters. These Measures define that installations must be
designed, installed, maintained and operated to guarantee that no natural water supplies can be polluted. Furthermore, for storage facilities and reloading points, any
kind of loss of liquids must be avoided and any leakage
of liquids must be prevented.
The German Water Management Act ( 19 g WHG) applies the "duty of care" principle for the storage, filling,
manufacturing and treatment of substances which are
hazardous to water and to internal piping systems in the
industry. This defines that installations which handle liquids that endanger the water quality must be designed,
installed, maintained and operated to guarantee that no
natural water supplies can be polluted.
In accordance with a ruling of the German Federal Administrative Court, the "duty of care" principle requires
the elimination of even the likelihood of water pollution
occurring.
Requirement of German regulations on installations
handling substances which are hazardous to water
(3 VAwS)
Installations must be designed and operated in such a
way that no substances which are hazardous to water
can leak. They must be leak-proof, stable and sufficiently resistant against the expected thermal, mechanical
and chemical influences.
Leakage of any part of an installation conveying media
which endanger the water quality, needs to be recognised in a fast and reliable way.
The above mentioned requirements for piping systems can be fulfilled through the existing retention
space between the inner and outside pipe in our
double containment system.
781
Double containment
CONTAIN-IT Plus pressure-tight outer pipe
The CONTAIN-IT Plus pressure-tight double containment systemcomprises an outerprotective pipe, made
from PE100, which is welded pressure-tight,
usingELGEF Plus electrofusion coupler.
782
Seals
The individual fittings for the inner and outer pipes are
injection moulded using the latest quality assured procedures. The inner fittings are available in all GF plastic
materials. Fittings are factory made and supplied ready
to install.
In the CONTAIN-IT Plus double containment system,
the outer fitting always made fromPE-100 polyethylene is already attached to the inner fitting. The inner and outer fittings are connected together using sturdy support rings, which act as fixed points for the inner pipe. This prevents expansion of the inner pipe in
the outer pipe. The entire system must be finished as a
fixed-point installation with astructural certificate.
On solvent cementable plastics (PVC-U, PVC-C), a cemented socket joint is used to connect the inner pipes.
A number of different fusion processes are available for
connectingweldable plastics (PE, PP-H, PVDF). Socket
fusion can be used for PP-H / PE (d 20/50 to d 110/160)
and PVDF (d 20/50 to d 63/110). For the size range d
20/50 to d 225/315,butt fusion techniques can be used.
Infrared fusion techniques can also be used in certain
cases(refer toOverview of product range).Wherever
possible, factory-finishedjoints are made by infrared fusion.
The PE outer fittingshave integrated joint spigots
which also act as the support rings for the inner pipes
for connection by means of push-on ELGEF Pluselectrofusion coupler or EPDM rubber sleeves.
The push-on ELGEF Plus electrofusion coupler or rubber sleeve can be pushed over the end of the pipe being connected, or the long end of the fitting, before the
inner pipe is connected. The electrofusion coupler will fit
along only half the length of the shortend of the fitting.
The outer protective pipe, which surrounds the mediumconveying inner pipe, is made of PE100 polyethylene.
The key features of this material are itsgood chemical resistance to acids, alkalis and salts as well as a
number of organic and inorganic solvents. The high
resistance of this black (stabilised with carbon black)
polyethylene to UV effects, its insusceptibility to notching, flexibility and impact resistance, even at low temperatures down to -50 C,make thisprotective pipe material ideal for pipes laid indoors, outdoorsand in the
ground.
Transparent PVC-U splash outer pipe
The pressure level of the outer pipe is restricted to 1 bar
by the use of an EPDM rubber sleeve.
The code numbers and wall thicknesses of the protective pipes (PE100 or PVC-U) are listed in the double
containment product catalogue.

Branch saddles
Valves
Specially designed manual and actuated double containment valves can be integrated in the system. In the
same way as the fittings they are easy to install in the
pipe system. Double containment valves are factory
made and supplied as a system unit. They can be externally operated and opened for maintenance purposes
and to carry out a pressure test on the inner pipe.

Planning criteria
Material selection for the medium-conveying inner pipes
To ensure operational safety and achieve the minimum
designed service life, the selection of the material and
the pressure classification of the pipe system components are extremely important. The key influential factors are: operating pressure, operating temperature, the
medium being transported and the duration of stressing.
The chemical resistance list and the material-related
pressure andtemperature charts can be used to preselect the material. These aids can be found in our
technical manual, on theCD and on our website at
www.piping.georgfischer.com, Support, Planning Fundamentals.
We will naturally provide any assistance you need in selecting the right material.

Layout
The pipe layout should be planned so that the pipes are
protected from mechanical and thermal effects.
The necessary minimum distance from walls and ceilings as well as the required axis dimensions can be
found in the tables for calculation of cutting lengths.
For great fixed-point forces, the anchoring method on
the building material should be checked. If building material cannot absorb any fixed-point forces (e.g. trapezoidal corrugated roofs), the forces must be absorbed
via sturdy travelling rails.
Leak detection
Leak detection is an important element of the double
containment piping system and must be taken into consideration. Please see the section on leak detection and
location.
Isometric drawing
The 30 isometric diagram (see example of cutting
length calculation) provides an accurate view of the piping layout. When the axis dimensions are entered, the
cutting lengths can be calculated and the installation direction of the fittings determined.
This can be used to represent the ventilation, rinsing
and shut-off requirements, as well as the installation position of the end and sectional fittings.
Sizing
The pipe diameter is determined by calculating the pressure loss within the pipe. This depends not only on the
diameter, length, and pipe material but also on the flow
medium and the flow volume.
For project planning, construction and installation of
double containment systems, please refer to DVS 22102.

purpose. The activities described next,to prepare for
making the joint, must be carried out at the same time
as the installation of the inner pipe.

Differential pressure
We distinguish between over and underpressuremonitoring:
Overpressure monitoring
In differential pressure monitoring with overpressure, nitrogen is pumped at a specific pressure into the space
between the inner and outer pipes. If there is a pressure
loss in this space, an alarm will indicate the leak.
Advantages:
The inner and outer pipes are monitored for leak-tightness
Retrofit installation is possible
TV test certificate
Automatic alarm
Disadvantage:
The nitrogen, which is pumped in, must be ata higher pressure than the medium-conveying inner pipe. It
is therefore essential to check that the inner pipe will
not collapse, taking account of the operating conditions (please refer tothe questionnaire for the structural certificate).
Optical monitoring
For optical leak detection, a 20-mm diameter ball valve
with a transparent PVC-U monitoring pipe is mounted
on the Rp" branch of the termination fitting or on the
branch saddle.
Advantages:
Cost-efficient
Retrofit on the branch saddle is possible
Disadvantages:
No automatic alarm
Outer pipe is not monitored
Can be installed only at the lowest point
Locating leaks:
Outer pipe direct
Inner pipethrough special holes in the outer pipe
Vacuum monitoring (underpressure monitoring)
In differential pressure monitoring in avacuum, a pump
is used to create a vacuum in the range of 600 700
mbar in the space between the inner and outer pipes.
If there is a pressure loss in this space, a vacuum
switch(VS) switches on a vacuum pump.At the same
time, a warning light and buzzer provide visual andacoustic warnings.
Advantages:
No pressure loading on the inner pipe
The inner and outer pipes are monitored for leak-tightness
Retrofit installation is possible
Automatic alarm
TV test certificate
Disadvantages:
Pumping volume of the vacuum pump must be at
least750 mbar with clear intake.
Where there is a large volume of space between the
inner and outer pipes, the vacuum pump will need to
be powerful enough, or the pipeline will need to be di-
Optoelectronic monitoring
For optoelectronic leak detection, a fluid sensor and a
20-mm diameter ball valve with a transparent PVC-U
monitoring pipe is mounted on the " branch of the termination fitting or on the branch saddle.
Advantages:
Relatively cost-efficient
Retrofit on the branch saddle is possible
Automatic alarm
811
Disadvantages:
Outer pipe is not monitored
Can be installed only at the lowest point
Note:
Due to the minimal difference in dimensions between
the inner and outer pipes in the CONTAIN-IT Plus double containment system, sensor cables are not feasible.
If this option is required, please contact our local sales
representative.
Sensor cable
In the space between the inner and outer pipes a cable
is laid which reacts either to conductive fluids or chemicals and emits an alarm.
Advantages:
Leak point is indicated precisely to within 1 m
Automatic alarm
Disadvantages:
Outer pipe is not monitored
Relatively expensive
Retrofit is not possible
Depending on the system, larger outer diameter of
outer pipe will be required
Susceptibility to condensates
812
Advantages:
Fast and safe leak detection
Only the respective section of the outer pipe needs to
be rinsed and cleaned
Length of leakage sections freely selectable
Important:
Installation or repair of double containment systems
must be made only by personnel trained for the purpose
and authorised by GF.
Maintenance
If the leakage warning system signals an incident, the
safety procedures defined in advance by the operator of the double containment system, must be followed.
If the installation includes more than one double containment line or section, a leak detection system must
be installed in each individual sector. If this is not
done, and the space between the pipes becomes
filled with the medium being carried, the double containment system effectively becomes a single pipe
system. The leak detection system must be capable
of detecting and indicating a leak within 72 hours.
Double containment systems must be protected from
uncontrolled thermal and mechanical influences.
Pressure test
Refer to section: "Pressure testing the inner und outer
pipes".
Carrying out repairs
Prior to beginning witha repair, it is essential to take
appropriate precautions, including completely emptying and flushing the inner and outer pipes, preventing
any dripping, etc.
If a leak cannot be precisely located, it is useful to
proceed section by section.
Caution: Only use water to search for the leak.
Our mechanically fastened drill-in saddle, with a "
tapping point, allows test drillings to be carefully made
on the underside of the protective pipe to section off
the leak. The saddle is later resealed with a PVC plug.
We recommend the use oftermination fittings when
the pipe system is being installed, to divide it up into
leakage detection zones.
The pipe must be replaced in accordance with our
pipe installation instructions.
Extension of the installation and retrofit installation
of a T-piece
Before starting work, it is essential to take appropriate
precautions, including completely emptying and flushing
the inner and outer pipes, preventing any dripping, etc.
Safety and fire prevention measures
We refer to the relevant safety datasheets of the plastic
materials used.
Laying pipes in the ground
When laying pipes in the ground, care must be taken to
ensure compliance with the relevant regulations and directives of professional organisations and public authorities and agencies, relating to trenching, embedding the
double containment system and backfilling.

Main test
In the context of the main test, a much smaller drop in
pressure can be expected at constant pipe wall temperatures so that it is not necessary to pump again.
The checks can focus primarily on leak detection at the
flange joints and any position changes of the pipe.
Observe if using compensators
If the pipeline to be tested contains compensators, this
has an influence on the expected axial forces of the
pipeline. Because the test pressure is higher than the
working pressure, the axial forces on the fixed points
become higher. This has to be taken into account when
designing the fixed points.

Pre-test
The pre-test serves to prepare the piping system for the
actual test (main test). In the course of pre-testing, a
tension-expansion equilibrium in relation to an increase
in volume will develop in the piping system. A material-related drop in pressure will occur which will require
repeated pumping to restore the test pressure and also frequently a re-tightening of the flange connection
screws.
The guidelines for an expansion-related pressure decrease in pipes are:
814
Before starting with the internal pressure test, the following points must be checked:
Was installation done according to the available
plans?
All pressure relief devices and flap traps mounted in
the flow direction?
All end valves shut?
Valves in front of other devices are shut to protect
against pressure.
Visual inspection of all joints, pumps, measurement
devices and tanks.
Has the waiting period after the last fusion / cementing been observed?
Now the pipeline can be filled from the geodetic lowest
point. Special attention should be given to the air vent. If
possible, vents should be provided at all the high points
of the pipeline and these should be open when filling the
system. Flushing velocity should be at least 1 m/sec.
Reference values for the filling volume are given in the
table below.

3. Installation
Before putting the double containment valve into operation, the following 4 steps are required to install the
CONTAIN-IT Plus ball valve:
824
NOTICE
Installation of the valve
Incorrect installation may cause problems
with tolerances.
Make sure to join up the pipe ends with the
other pipe sections only after the valve has
been assembled
Move the protective housing aside. The ball valve is now accessible.
NOTICE
Fixing of the valve
Tension within the assembly reduced the life
expectancy and functionality of the valve.
Fix the valve at both ends with fixing points
in order to minimise any tension within the
assembly
Step 2: Preparing for pressure testing
CAUTION
Removing the hand lever
A build-up of internal pressure may cause the
valve pinion to pop out, leading to injury and /
or damage.
Before removing the hand lever, any internal operating or test pressures must be released
Procedure:
Make sure that the red hand lever is in parallel position to the
pipe system.
WARNING
Pressure Testing
Using hazardous media for pressure testing may put the installation at risk and cause
physical damage or bodily harm in case of
leakage.
The pressure test must be performed using
non-hazardous media (e.g. water) and with
due care and attention in handling.
Please pay attention to the instructions in
the user manual included for ball valve type
546 (valves only)
Procedure:
1. Check to make sure the protective housing is open
(cover removed) to determine if there is leakage during
the pressure testing.
2. The pressure test must be performed with water or
another non-hazardous medium. See DVS 2210-2 with
reference to DVS 2210-1, Suppl. 2, as well as the instructions contained in the above mentioned Installation and Operating Instructions for Ball Valve Type
546.
When the pressure test has been successfully completed, proceed to Step 4.
Plug the stem through the hole in the protective housing onto the ball valve. Note: Please make sure that the stem is in
the right position. Therefore please consider the outline of the
stem and of the ball valve.
Check if the stem is flush with the bottom of the connecting element.
Reposition the union end and tighten the union nuts on both
sides with an adequate wrench.
826
WARNING
5.1: Procedure:
The upgrade of the actuators EA11, EA21 and PA21 follows the same steps.
CAUTION
Removing the hand lever
A build-up of internal pressure may cause the
valve pinion to pop out, leading to injury and /
or damage.
Before removing the hand lever, any internal operating or test pressures must be released
Make sure that the red hand lever is in parallel position to the
pipe system.
827
Mount the adaptor interface with four allen screws onto the actuator.

Technical Data
General comments to plastics orientated
pipeline design and installation
The design and installation of thermoplastic pipe systems requires designers and installers alike to take into account the fact that plastics have different physical characteristics to metal. Although CF is a very robust systems, nevertheless, care should be taken during handling and transport to avoid damage. Also thermoplastics have certain physical characteristics, such
as a high expansion coefficient, which need to be taken
into account in the design phase.
GF Piping Systems has been successfully developing
and selling plastic pipe systems into a spectrum of high
performance installations, such as highly concentrated chemicals, for over 50 years, and experience has
shown that when engineers and installers take into account the advice given in our technical literature plastics
are an economical and reliable alternative to metals.
As a general rule for designing and installing plastics
one of the major differences is that plastics can and
should be allowed to move after commissioning i.e.
move under the influence of temperature fluctuation and
pressure changes. For instance using pipe brackets that
allow horizontal movement and not clamping the system
in place is a must for plastic piping installations.
The following technical information covers the fundamental information required to ensure an economical and trouble free installation: Not all details however are published in this document, for more detailed information or if you have a specific question
please ask your local GF Piping Systems company,
consult www.coolfit.georgfischer.com or email us at
info@coolfit.georgfischer.com for advice if you have any
questions.
Temperature in C, F
Chemical resistance
COOL-FIT is generally resistant to most diluted inorganic acids, bases and salts and to most animal oils and
fats. It is not resistant to organic solvents, pure alcohol,
petrol, acetic acid and vegetable oils.
For working temperature below 0C/32F, an antifreeze
has to be used in the water to prevent freezing. The
above pressure temperature curve applies only when
the medium is water, therefore for non-pure water mediums a derating factor has to be applied to the above
curve. This is standard procedure for all plastic piping
systems.
Derating factors
Inorganic salt solutions: F=1
Organic salt solutions: F=1.25
Diluted Glycols (max 50%):F=1.7
diluted alcohol (max 50%): F=1.7
For more details regarding these derating values for
chemical solutions please consult GF Piping Systems.
Ice Slurry
Ice slurry is a mixture of ice particles (0.01-0.03 mm
width), water and antifreeze agent, usually an alcohol,
salt or glycol. GF Piping Systems has undertaken extensive testing of ice slurry with CF and give recommendations regarding for example pipeline layout, flow rates
and pressure drops. Please ask your local GF Piping
Systems representative for details.
Glycol Solutions
COOL-FIT can be used with diluted glycol solutions
(max. 50%), however a derating factor of 1.7applies to
the standard water based pressure-temperature curve.
The following coolants can be used with the COOL-FIT
system regarding chemical resistance: ANTIFROGEN
L,N, TYFOCOR, DOWFROST.
Example: water diluted glycol
For example if the medium is a waterdiluted glycol solutions 50% (max. concentration allowable for COOL-FIT
ABS) then a derating factor of 0.6 applies to the standard pressure temperature curve. So at -10 C/150F
for a minimum lifespan of 25 years the maximum allowable working pressure is 0.6 x 11.8bar = 7.1bar
844
to metal pipe (copper, stainless steel or steel). The surface roughness of the metal system can be entered individually, for example if the user would like to compensate for future encrustation and corrosion of the metal
pipe.
Many other calculation options exist, including for example energy gain comparison calculation along a piping system, pipe dimensioning, temperature loss along
a given piece of pipe etc. All available via the internet
page.
846
Installation
COOL-FIT ABS Plus fixed point
Fixed points are created using the special COOL-FIT
ABS Plusfix point.The product consists of two components namely a welding band and a pipe bracket.
Electro-fusion welded band as permanent connection
to transmit the forces that occur in the pipe to the fixed
point. The delivered pipe brackets are needed to deliver welding pressure during installation and give stability during operation. For welding, use an MSA 250, 300,
350, 400 or commercially availabe 220 V fusion machines. If you use an MSA fusion machine from GF Piping Systems, use the 799 350 339 adapter. Please take

The adaptor fittings for connecting plastic piping systems and metal threading offer greatest possible flexibility for installation with the combined socket/spigot on the plastic end. The metal thread can be sealed
either with hemp or PTFE-tape. The adaptor fitting is
sealed with an EPDM O-ring. It serves also as protection against distrotion to avoid damaging the plastic during installation. Compared to the usual adaptor unions
the special connecting technology with snap ring guarantees increased leaktightness also while temperature
change and during vibration. In addition to the classic
transition to metal pipes this fittings can also be used for
connecting pressure gauges.
Note: To avoid electrochemical corrosion in transitions
to non-ferrous metals, brass connections must be used.
847
Union Connections
This is the most reliable and cost effective method to
connect metal to plastic.
GF Piping Systems has a whole range of transition
unions with O-Rings specially designed to compensate
for the changes in length which can occur due to temperature fluctuations. See COOL-FITproduct range for
details of the copper, brass, stainless steel and malleable iron transition unions available.

Flange connections
Flange connections up to DN300 are also possible. For
bolt torques, tightening sequences etc please refer to
standard the GF Piping Systems Plastics Technical
Handbook.
GF Piping Systemss new revolutionary PN16 PP- V
flange is light weight, with location stubs to aid installation and is designed to avoid high stresses during tightening. GF Piping Systems recommends this type of
flange for use with plastic flange connections.
All mechanical connections including flanges should be
retightened after commissioning if the working temperature is lower than the temperature during installation.
Threaded Connections
GF Piping Systems recommends avoiding threaded connections for plastic wherever possible, solvent cementing is a very reliable and speedy method
of jointing and should be preferred to threaded
connections.Mechanical wrenches should not be used
to tighten the joint. Namely strap type wrenches prevent
damage to the plastic components.
For sealing threaded joints the mating parts should always be parallel to tapered. In the COOL-FIT range only the plastic female thread with reinforced ring should
be used for connection to metal threads. For sealing
we recommend PTFE tape. 2 layers of tape applied in
a clockwise direction, the components should then be
joined carefully to avoid damage to the plastic thread.
Alternatively also thread sealing cord Henkel Tangit UniLock or Loctite 55 and/or thread sealing paste Loctite
5331 can be used. Please consider the appropriate installation guidelines of the manufacturer. If other sealing
materials are used, compatibility with the plastics to be
used must be checked first.
848
De-Venting or De-aeration
It is always important to remove air from any piping system, for salt solutions this is particularly important due to
their corrosive nature. Summary of Deaeration process,
always fill the system slowly from the bottom up
induce a vacuum in the system before filling
install manual and/or automatic deaerators at the
highest points in the system
long horizontal runs should be installed at a slight gradient
avoid low points i.e. Uconfigurations where air can be
trapped
install deaerators with a buffer zone of fluid below
them, see sketch below
always observe the medium manufacturers specific
recommendation for filling, mixing etc as secondary
fluids differ in their composition

Handling
How to carry pipes after connection with COOL-FIT
ABS Plus nipples:
The pipe zone has to be designed according to planning fundamentals and static calculation. The area between trench sole and side fill is referred to as bedding.
By exchanging ground a load carrying bedding has to
be created. Usually, the minimum bedding is according
to EN1610 a = 100mm, in case of bedrock or compacted underground a= 150mm. Further, there are demands
concerning the filling material. Materials with elements
bigger than:
22 mm at DN 200
40 mm at DN >200 until DN 600
should not be used
The upper bedding layer b is assessed from static calculations. It is important to assure no cavities below the
pipe. The bedding dissipates all loads from the pipe
evenly into the ground. For this reason theCOOL-FIT
ABS Pluspipe has to lay evenly on the bedding over its
complete length. The upper end of the pipe zone is defined according to EN 1610 as 150mm above the pipe
apex respectively 100mm above the pipe connection.
When filling and compacting the cover depth and the
main backfill one has to make sure not to damage the

Flammability
According to UL94, ABS has an HB (Horizontal Burning) flammability coefficient and falls into building material class B2 (conventional inflammable, nondripping)
according to DIN 41021. Fundamently, toxic substance
are released by all burning process. Carbon monoxide
is generally the most important. When ABS burns, primarily carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and water are
formed. Tests have shown that the relative toxicity of
the products of combustion are similar or even lower
than those of natural products such as wood, wool and
cotton. ABS combustion gases are not corrosive. That
the burning nevertheless forms soot, smoke develops
during combustion. Suitable firefighting agents are water, foam and carbon dioxide.
PE Flammability
The following classifications in accordance with differing combustion standards: According to UL94, PE is
classified as HB (Horizontal Burning) and according
to DIN 534381 as K2. According to DIN 4102 part 1
and NORM B3800 part 1, PE is listed as B2 (normally flammable). In the French classification of building
materials, polyethylene corresponds to M3 (of average

System iJOINT
General Information
Benefits of compression fittings
iJOINT polypropylene compression fittings combinethe
two main advantages of the mechanical connection systems, push-fit and compression: easy installationas
a push-fitand safe as a traditional compression fitting
(mechanical compensation). iJOINT is used inwater applications.
The iJOINT range contains straight and reducing joiners, tees, elbows, threaded connectors and end caps,
ranging from d20 to d110 mm and threads from 1/2" to
4".
Fast and easy installation
The clamp ring made of polyacetal does not come into contact with the pipe during insertion of the pipe and
there is no need to disassemble the iJOINT fitting before installation. This combined with a defined stop position for the nut and that the nut can be fixed with less
than one turn makes installationeasy.
High resistance and no corrosion
The special coated NBR gasket which is approved
for potable water in combination with the unique body
design ensure high performance in terms of pressure
and pull-out resistance, vacuum as well as suction. The
body made of polypropylene is completely corrosionfree and guarantees top performance as well as high resistance to stress in long lifetimes. The fittings are suitable for applications under and above ground thanks to
very high resistance to UV rays.
Safe design
The special design allows perfect resistance to water
hammer and pull-out forces without having a negative
impact on the connection lifetime. The stop ring for the
nut works as a helpful indicator of a proper nut closing
position and the nut does not loosen by itself due to an
anti-rotation nut locking system. The clamp ring and
all other components are contained in the body so that
they cannot be lost even when disassembling the fitting
or during transportation.
858
Application
The iJOINT system is designed for new installations as
well as renovations or extensions of existing water lines.
iJOINT is also suited for useas house connections and
service lines. In addition, iJOINT is used for bypass systems, where temporarily laid lines need to be disassembled in a quick and easy way, leaving the coupler intact
by simply unscrewing and sliding the joint back from the
pipe.

Technical data
General comments to plastics oriented
pipeline design
The design and installation of thermoplastic pipe systems requires designers and installers alike to take into account the fact that plastics have different physical
characteristics to metal. Although GF Piping Systemsoffers very robust systems, nevertheless, care should
be taken during handling and transport to avoid damage. Also thermoplastics have certain physical characteristics, such as a high expansion coefficient, which
need to be taken into account in the design phase.
GF Piping Systems has been successfully developing
and providing plastic pipe systems into a spectrum of
high performance installations for over 50 years, and
experience has shown that when engineers and installers take into account the advice given in our technical literature plastics are an economical and reliable alternative to metals. As a general rule for designing and
installing plastics one of the major differences is that
plastics can and should be allowed to move after commissioning i.e. move under the influence of temperature
fluctuation and pressure changes. For instance using
pipe brackets that allow horizontal movement and not
clamping the system in place is a must for plastic piping
installations.
The following technical information covers the fundamental information required to ensure an economical and trouble free installation: Not all details
however are published in this document, for more
detailed information or if you have a specific question please ask your local GF Piping Systems company, consult www.georgfischer.com or email us at
info@georgfischer.com.
Pressure-temperature diagram
Pressure ratings for thermoplastic pipe are always quoted for water at 20 C. It can be used at higher temperatures but it is a fundamental principle in thermoplastic
pipework that if the working temperature is increased
then the working pressure must be reduced.
The diagram shows for PE pipes and PP fittings the
maximum permissible pressures at various temperatures up to the maximum allowable working temperature
of +45 C. The diagram is based on an ambient temperature of 20 C with water as the medium. A safety factor
is incorporated into all calculations with a minimum life
time of 50 years.
