Key Features
- Non-Drinking Water Applications: The lilac color signifies the pipe’s suitability for recycled and non-drinking water uses.
- Durable PVC Construction: Made from unplasticized PVC (PVC-U) that resists corrosion, chemicals, and environmental wear.
- Pressure Rating (PN12): Designed to handle moderate to high-pressure applications in non-drinking water systems.
- Range of Diameters: Available in 20mm, 25mm, 32mm, 40mm, and 50mm, ensuring compatibility with various project sizes.
- Solvent Weld Joint (SWJ): Provides a permanent, watertight connection, reducing the risk of leaks in high-pressure systems.
Applications
Recycled Water Systems
This pipe is commonly used in recycled water systems, offering the necessary strength and durability for pressurized non-potable water distribution. The lilac color ensures easy identification and compliance with Australian standards for non-drinking water systems.
Agricultural and Irrigation Systems
Perfect for agricultural and irrigation purposes, the PVC Pressure Pipe Series 1 Lilac SWJ offers a lightweight yet durable solution that is easy to install and maintain. Its chemical-resistant properties make it ideal for long-term use in a variety of environments.
Industrial and Commercial Non-Drinking Water Applications
For industrial and commercial projects that require a reliable non-drinking water solution, this pipe provides the necessary pressure handling and durability to meet rigorous demands. Its lilac color allows for quick visual identification, ensuring it’s not used in potable water systems.
Advantages
- Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: The PVC-U material is resistant to both chemical degradation and corrosion, making it ideal for buried or exposed installations.
- Cost-Effective: Lightweight and easy to handle, this pipe reduces shipping and installation costs compared to metal alternatives.
- Long Service Life: With minimal maintenance, the PVC pipe can last over 50 years, ensuring a low lifecycle cost for projects.
- Pressure Rating (PN12): Its ability to handle up to PN12 makes it suitable for a wide range of high-pressure applications.
Understanding the Difference Between Series 1 and Series 2 Pipes
PVC pressure pipes are available in two types: Series 1 and Series 2. Series 1 has ISO-compatible diameters for global standards, while Series 2 fits ductile iron systems.
The nominal size (DN) and pressure rating (PN) identify the pipes. Colors indicate their use: white for potable water (Series 1), blue for potable water (Series 2), purple for recycled water, cream for pressure sewer, and yellow for gas.
