PVC-C(Metric) - System Specification

GF Piping Systems - System Specification - for PVC-C Metric Piping Systems 1. Scope This specification covers requirements for the GF PVC-C Piping System intended for a wide range of applications including water, wastewater and effluent treatment as well as a wide range of chemical applications. The components of the PVC-C piping systems are in accordance with the following standards. 2. Basic System Data 2.1 Material Specification for Chlorinated Polyvinylchloride (PVC-C) PVC-C pipes, fittings and valves from GF Piping Systems shall be manufactured from chlorinated polyvinylchloride, of which pipes and fittings are designed for 25 years of operation with water as medium (20°C). PVC-C has also an optimal chemical resistance against many mineral acids, bases & salt solutions. For detailed information, please refer to the list of chemical resistance provided by GF Piping Systems. The raw material used shall be designed for use with pressure bearing piping systems with long term hydrostatic properties in accordance with DIN EN ISO 15493, as supplied by GF Piping Systems. 2.2 Characteristics of PVC-C Material Characteristic Value Test Standards Density 1.5 g/cm3 ISO 1183-1 Tensile E-modules >2700 N/mm2 EN ISO 527-1 Charpy notched impact strength at 23°C 8 kJ/m2 EN ISO 179/1eA Charpy notched impact strength at 0°C 4 kJ/m2 EN ISO 179/1eA Vicat heat distortion temp.

- System Specification - 3. Pipes Pipes are made of PVC-C and processed according to the quality specifications and dimensions according to EN ISO 15493 (for metric pipes). Processed pipes are straight and show a very low out of roundness. The wall structure is homogeneous and even. OD-tolerances surpass the requirements of EN ISO 15493 and are compatible with the fitting programme of GF Piping Systems for easy pre-assembly and minimized gaps. Any installation should follow the GF Piping Systems installation guidelines for industrial piping and the guidelines issued by the DVS. Ventilation pipes made of a FM 4910 approved material grade are available upon request. 4. Fittings All PVC-C fittings manufactured by GF Piping Systems are suitable for solvent cementing, with dimensions and tolerances in accordance with EN ISO 15493. All the requirements of those standard must be fulfilled. All threaded connections shall have pipe threads in accordance with the requirements of ISO 7-1. 4.1 Packaging and Labelling The packaging must ensure that the fittings are not damaged during transportation. Packaging and labelling must meet the following requirements: • Identification of the content, in type, quantity and product details • Information about standards and approvals covered by the product • Content of the label has to accomplish legal requirements • Labels must be EAN coded for automatic identification • Comply to GF Piping Systems standards as well as to international standards such as ISPM15 System Specification PVC-C metric page 3/ 24 Schaffhausen, June 2018

- System Specification - 5. Accessories 5.1 Flanges Backing flanges in metric sizes DN15-200 shall be designed according to EN ISO 15493, in a thermo plastic-oriented design, consisting of 100% glass fibre reinforced polypropylene, PP-GF30, graphite black and UV stabilized. These flanges are manufactured in a seamless technology injection moulding process by GF Piping Systems. The backing flange shall be optimised with a V-groove in the inner diameter to ensure an evenly distributed force on the thermo plastic flange adapter. The backing flanges shall be marked with dimension, PN-value, standards, brand and lot number. Connecting dimensions metric according to ISO 7005, EN 1092; Bolt circle diameter PN 10; Inch: ANSI B 16.5, BS 1560; class 150. Alternatively backing flanges in metric sizes DN15-200 shall be designed according to EN ISO 15493, consisting of unplasticised polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U), in a thermo plastic-oriented design. The backing flanges shall be marked with dimension, PN- value, standards, brand and lot number. Connecting dimensions metric according to ISO 7005, EN 1092; Bolt circle diameter PN 10; Inch: ANSI B 16.5, BS 1560; class 150. 5.2 Gaskets Gaskets in metric sizes DN10-300 shall consist of elastomeric material according to EN681, designed with or without metal reinforcement for use with solvent cementable flange adaptors according to EN ISO 15493. Gaskets with reinforcement shall be designed to be centred by the outer diameter and shall provide fixation aids to fit on the flange bolts. 5.3 Pipe Support System Pipe Support System shall be KLIP-IT, in metric sizes d10-400, supplied by GF Piping Systems. The product range includes two different types of pipe clamps, type 060 and type 061. Type 60 is available for d90-400 and shall be made of PP. Type 061 is available for d10-160 and shall be made of PP or PE. Pipe clamps bigger than d40 shall be equipped with a security bow to secure the pipe.
