APF U-PVC pressure and non-pressure pipes
DESCRIPTION
U-PVC (unplasticized polyvinylchloride) pipes are excellent resistance to aggressive environments both naturally occurring and as a result of industrial activity. Unclassified dark grey U-PVC pipes (available in different colours upon request).
The APF U-PVC Pipe Dimension:
• Outside diameters: – 16mm to 630mm.
• Length: – 6 m (depending upon customer request).
• Nominal pressures: – PN4 up to PN16 as per ISO standards.

Applicable Standards
APF produces U-PVC pipes according to the specifications requested by the client. Our product portfolio consists of pipes made according to the following standards:
• ISO 4422-2 / ES-ISO 4422-2/161
• DIN 8062 equivalent to ES 1222 for pressure less than 6 PN
• BS 3505
• DIN 4925-II & III (Borehole application)
Advantages of APF U-PVC products
• Corrosion: PVC pressure pipes remain unaffected by all types of corrosion.
• Abrasion: Excellent resistance to abrasion as compared to other traditional materials.
• Water-tightness: Solvent cement and push fit rubber ring jointing systems provide a perfect sealing of network connections.
• Water Hammer Resistance: reduced water hammer effects due to slower surge celerity (at one third the rate of metal).
• Hydraulicity: excellent hydraulic coefficient (k=0.01) ensuring negligible head loss and reduced pumping cost.
• Shock resistance: APF pipes have exceptional shock resistance qualities; they show absolutely no damage or deformations under impact tests.
• Installation: Spectacular weightlessness permits easy installation of pipes.
• Food grade: no influence on the quality of drinking water, and no alteration of its composition.
Due to its non-metallic nature, the material used is totally resistant to all forms of metallic corrosion. Aggressive water resulting from high sulphate soils and low hardness water will not attack UPVC pipes. Our pipes are therefore resistant to a wide range of industrial waters, chemicals and offer its advantage in long-term systems life and manufacture costs.
APPLICATIONS
• Drinking water supply for public, private, or industrial networks.
• Sewerage systems.
• Piping for conveyance of liquid foodstuffs and industrial liquids.
• Underground irrigation systems.
