Power therm PP-R Pipes & Fittings

Polypropylene Random (PP-R) Offers basic properties which suit its use in many application. The main advantage of this is we can avoid copper, galvanized and the other metallic pipe for hot water. This can use for both hot water & cold water. So it is easy for plumbing work and getting multiple advantages. Power therm pipe & fitting are suitable for potable water distribution systems in additions of a wide range of hydro-sanitary applications. It can use for oil, gas and most of the chemicals. PP-R 80 pipes and fitting are quick and easy to joint with socket welding that provides homogeneous leak free joints. Polypropylene Random copolymer type 3 raw material having low melt flow rate, high molecular weight and good flexibility. Power therm keeping German and international standards and quality. Raw material of PP-R used in Power therm pipe & fitting is procured from the world’s proven highest quality raw material producers.

Fields of application:

The polypropylene system from Power therm can be used for:

• Hot and cold potable water piping networks in residential and commercial buildings. i.e. hospitals, hotels, offices, school buildings, shopping malls etc.

• Chilled water networks in air conditioning system, as an effective light weight and corrosion free substitute for steel pipes.

• Piping networks for all types of industrial applications for the delivery of aggressive chemicals including many acidic, alkaline and corrosive chemicals.

• Irrigation systems for gardens.

• Piping networks for rainwater utilization systems.

• Piping networks for swimming pool facilities.

• Factories with high-pressure water and compressed air circuits.

• Hot pipe networks such as small and centralized water heater, central heating system and radiator connections etc.
  
  
  

  Characteristics of Power therm PP-R Pipe
  
  

• Long-life: - The molecular structure of copolymers and its excellent physical and chemical properties ensure a high mechanical resistance and a longer service life depending on operating temperature and pressure. Power therm system can be expected a minimum of 50 years life.
  
  
• Hygienic and non toxic: - Power therm pipe does not react or effect to the potable water, as compared with other material used in conventional piping systems. So it is good for drinking water and safe for health. PP-R are certified as non toxic in accordance with current international standard. 
  
  
• Strong heat resistance: - Power therm piping system is designed for continuous temperature of 0…C to 90(degree) C, and short-term peak temperature of up to 100…C.
  
  
• Less pressure loss: - The smooth internal finish of Power therm creates no disturbance to flow and does not allow sediment to build up and reduce pressure. 
  
  
• No corrosion: - This characteristic allow high flow velocities of the transported fluid up to 7 m/s without any problem of erosion, even in the presence of acid and alkaline substances with PH values between 1 and 14. 
  
  
• Less noise: - The elasticity of polypropylene is 257 times higher than steel. A Power therm system will absorb water hammers which cause annoying vibration and noise in the buildings.
  
  
• Damage resistance: - Being made from a non-rigid material, a Power therm system does not suffer major damage as a result of building movement. Power therm is fit for use in seismic areas.
  
  
• Low thermal conductivity: - Heat conduction is 0.23-0.24 W/n at 20_c, it is much lower than the steel pipe (43-52mk) and red copper pipe (333W/mk).
  
  
• Light weight, easy to install and low labour cost of installation.
  
  
• Cost effective pipeline network.
