GENERAL CHARACTERISTICSAPPLICATIONS

Technical Sheet

2008

2.1Preserving and maintaining water quality in distribution and supply pipeworks has become an absolute priority. Thatrequirement naturally applies to healthcare buildings, but also to public buildings and dwellings.

The safety of pipeworks depends upon a good design and a wise selection of materials in order to prevent efficientlybacteria proliferation risks, right from the start.

Experts recommend 3 fundamental actions to effectively restrict bacteria development in water pipeworks:- avoid stagnation and ensure effective water circulation,- fight against scaling and corrosion with network design and maintenance appropriate for water quality requirements andadapted to the installation’s specific characteristics,- keep the water within the pipeworks at a high temperature, or be able to elevate the temperature when required.

Domestic water networks can be treated in addition to the above: chlorine shock*, continuous chlorination*, temporarytemperature elevation (70°C for 1/2 hour).(*Treatments recommended by the French Ministry of Health’s D.G.S., please consult T.S.12.1).

Therefore, the pipeworks must be corrosion proof, prevent scale, prevent biofilm development, be compatiblewith chemical and thermal treatments, including cold water pipevorks.

GIRPI offers the solution to meet all of the above requirements: SYSTEM’O®, a complete system for domestic hot and cold water services.

SYSTEM’O® consists of:- HTA® pipe (brown): the solution for hot water services. - HTA®-F pipe (caramel/orange): the solution for cold water services.- One single range of fittings.- The Monoklip® range of pipe brackets.- One single welding polymer.

IMPORTANT SYSTEM’O® is a complete system, especially developped to bring global reliability. Therefore, all of the system’s elements mustimperatively be used. The use of components of external origin will make GIRPI’s guarantee null and void.

� CHEMICAL RESISTANCEAny fluid or water containing chemical agent (in suspension or in solution) other (or in different quantities) than thosepermitted by the standards and regulations concerning drinking water are considered as chemical products.Therefore, their compatibility with HTA® and HTA®-F must be verified.

Refer to our table indicating the performance of C-PVC with respect to chemical agents, technical sheets 11.1 to11.7.

If in doubt, please contact both the product supplier and GIRPI technical services.

� PRODUCT QUALITYTo provide a constant quality level for its products and to guarantee its users that the stated performances are respected,GIRPI has implemented the control regulations imposed by the different French and international standards.The controls concern the physical and mechanical characteristics of the pipes and fittings.However, in addition to the above verifications and to guarantee the maximum reliability level in actual operating condi-tions, GIRPI has developped and carries out additional tests, as per NF T 54-094 standard.Thus, an alternate pressure test (on complete joint sections) is regularly carried out. This test simulates pressure shocksto which our products are submitted in live pipeworks (such as pressure hammers, flow speed variations). The couplingsare subjected to water hammer pressure cycles (20/60 bar) at 3600 cycles/hour for diameters 12 to 90 and 1500cycles/hour for diameters 110 to 160.

Furthermore, operational tests are constantly carried out on our laboratory’s testing rigs. This enables us to betterguarantee the adaptation of each component in the pipework to its own function.

The ISO 9001 V2000 certified procedures applied at all stages globally guarantee the technical performances of GIRPI’sproducts (industrial processes, logistics) and GIRPI’s Service quality (deliveries, technical assistance).

2.5� WORKING LIFETIMEThe working pressures and temperatures indicated in the following tables are determined for a working life of 50 yearswithout interruption.

Working pressures according to working temperatures are figured out by using regression curves as per standardNF EN ISO 9080.

� TESTING PRESSURE

A pressure pipework can be classified as PN 16 or PN 25 (with a safety factor of 2.5 after 50 years) if it can tolerate,during one hour, a pressure equal to 4.2 times this PN.

The readings for the breaking pressures for HTA® and HTA®-F are evaluated, as shown in the above regression curve,represented by a straight line with logarithmic scale.

This straight line is drawn on the basis of 1hour, 100 h, 1000 h and 10,000 h tests, at 20°C, 60°C, 70°C and 95°C, accordingto ISO 9080 standard.

� WORKING PRESSURES

The above table shows maximum working pressures for installations working continuously at the above temperatures fora duration of 50 years. The pressures indicated were figured out by using the corresponding regression curves with asafety coefficient superior to 2.

� APPLICATION CLASSESCovered by CSTB’s ATEC certificate, in PN25 and PN16.• European and international standards have modernised the application classes by incorporating operating periods atstabilised working conditions, but also overheating / malfunction periods for the heating appliances. For instance, class 2(HCWS) incorporates: a stabilised working period of 49 years at 70°C, a total of 1 year at 80°C for overheating periods,and a total of 100 hours at 95°C for malfunction situations.

� CERTIFIED FIELDS OF APPLICATION• Application classes 2 and 4 are in compliance with ISO 10508. According to that standard, it is reminded that, whateverthe application class used, the system must also allow for the transportation of cold water at 20°C for a duration of50 years, at a working pressure of 10 bar.• Class 2: domestic hot and cold water services (70°C).• Class 4: low temperature heating.• Cold water distribution: domestic cold water distribution network, to be capable of withstanding 70°C peaks for disinfec-tion purposes, under conditions such as described in the “technical maintenance guide for networks conveying water forhuman consumption inside buildings” about hot water distribution networks.• Centralised kitchens: drainage installations for laundries and industrial kitchens, or for heating plant condensates, witheffluent temperatures not exceeding 100°C, ending when entering grease interception units or cooling tanks. In the fra-mework of the above applications, the effluents are always and exclusively conveyed by gravity.

� GUARANTEES• For all applications specified in the technical documentation, regardless of pipe diameter, GIRPI has an insurance toguarantee installations which are carried out in accordance with its own general recommendations, and which respect thetemperature and pressure conditions and the nature of fluid specified above.

4.1� CUTTING• The roller plastic pipe-cutterAllows for neat, clean cuts to be carried out.

• The chamfering pipe-cutterThis type of tool cuts and chamfers pipes in one single operation. According to the modeland size used, it can cut and chamfer pipes from Ø 32 to 160 mm, with the help ofreducing half-shells.

• The use of disk saws to cut pipes is strictly prohibited.

� TRIMMING - CHAMFERINGAfter cutting, the pipe must be trimmed inside and a chamfer must be made on the outside.These operations can be performed by means of the following tools:

• Trimming and chamfering coneThis tool can be used to trim the inside of the pipe, and on the other side, it chamfers the outside. Ref. GIRPI CONE50U for pipes Ø 16 to 50 mm

• Chamfering tool This tool chamfers the pipe outside from Ø 32 to Ø 160.Ref. GIRPI CHANF160

• Chamfering pipe-cutter (see “cutting” section).

• TrimmerThis reams the inside of pipes of all diameters. Ref. GIRPI EBAV1 Ø 20 to 160 mm• The use of tools including cutting or abrading disks to chamfer pipes isstrictly prohibited.

• Chain vice Polyurethane pipe-rests hold the pipe without any scratching.

• Strap wrench Maximum gripping power, with no risk of deforming the pipes or fittings (braidednylon strap).

• Bench vice When using such traditional vices, it is mandatory to clamp the pipes by meansof wooden notched pipe-rests.

Technical Sheet

4.2

2008

� CHECKS PRIOR TO WELDINGThe priming operation can be replaced by the cleaning of pipes and fittings with a clean cloth if the pipes and fittings areclean and dry, and the working zone is wholesome. Otherwise, the priming will be made with D171P cleaner to eliminateall traces of fat (finger marks, greasy dirt,...).Before welding it is important to make certain checks:a) on the pipes and fittings: see that they contain no sign of impact, deep scratches, etc...b) on the welding polymer: it must be fluid, homogeneous, check use-by date.

IMPORTANT- Water impairs the welding polymer and subsequently the welding quality. No cold welding will therefore be made if the

parts to be assembled are damp (prior drying required).- RERFIX can be applied when the temperature is over + 5° C and under + 35° C. Welding can take place at 0° C ambient

temperature with a welding polymer kept at 20° C.- The atmospheric conditions (temperature, humidity) considerably affect the curing time (drying, evaporation of

solvents) of the welding polymer.- At low temperature, the parts when assembled should be held together for 20 to 30 seconds.- In hot weather, the adhesive should be applied rapidly and the parts immediatly jointed.- So as to avoid evaporation of the welding polymer, the pot must be closed after each welding operation, and it must be

used as quickly as possible once opened, especially under warm climatic conditions.

� MARKING OF THE SOCKET LENGTH- Using a thick pencil or felt maker, draw a mark on the pipe at a distance equal to the corresponding socket depth.

This mark enables the application of the welding polymer over the necessary length, and helps the installer to checkwhether the penetration length of the male end in the socket is correct. The use of GIRPI’s socket gauge is recommended(ref. JAUGE)

GENERAL RULES OF INSTALLATIONWELDING PROCEDURE

Technical Sheet

2008

4.3� WELDING POLYMER APPLICATION

- Once the checks and marking have been done, apply RERFIX welding polymer, available in250 ml or 1 liter pots.

- To apply the welding polymer, use the brush provided with the pot. - Brushes provided with 250 ml pots are fit for use with sizes 16 to 40mm.- Brushes provided with 1 liter pots are fit for use with sizes 20 to 160mm.

For sizes smaller than 16mm or larger than 160mm, it is advised to use a suitable brush.

The use of any other means or method is prohibited, namely: fingers, wood sticks, or any other usten-sil. Dropping the pipes or fittings directly into the welding polymer pots is prohibited as well (suchpractices lead to the creation of thick welding polymer deposits, which can cause obstruction of smallbore pipeworks).

- Apply the cement moderately (in a thin coat) over the whole (the female) interlock length and overthe whole length of the male end (marked on pipe). The cement should be applied so as to obtain auniform, homogeneous coat, well spread over the whole interlock surface.

Owing to the standardized tolerance ranges of the male ends (pipe / spigots) and the sockets, some gap may appear. Inthis case, double welding must be carried out. This consists in coating the male end once, then the socket once, and final-ly the male end a second time, then joint them.CAUTION: diluting the welding polymer (e.g. by use of thinner) or modifying it by any method is prohibited.

� JOINTING- Immediately after applying the welding polymer, joint the two elements right home (as far as the marks previously traced) by pushing longitudinally and without twisting.- Keep held together for 5 seconds.

NB1: In certain cases it is necessary to mark the position of one element in relation to the other (see sketch above). NB2: On large sizes, 2 fitters must operate simultaneously, i.e one fitter will coat the male end, while the other fitter willbe coating the female end with welding polymer. This method enables a quick jointing, needed for a strong weld.

� DRYING TIMES- For drinking water applications:

� New installation: 24 hours.� Maintenance works: see table below.

GENERAL RULES OF INSTALLATIONRECOMMENDATIONS

Technical Sheet

4.4

2008

� NETWORK FLUSHING PROCEDURE. Drinking water pipeworksWhen dealing with drinking water networks, before first use, applicable rules must be followed, i.e. fill the pipeworks withwater, flush them and purge them.In France, for domestic hot and cold water services, the guidelines of CSHPF (French Hospitals’ health and safety com-mitee) dated 8th July 2003 apply:- For new networks, before first use, carry out 3 complete flushing cycles, each of them including a 24h water stagnationperiod followed by a complete purging operation.- For renovation works, before reinstatement of the installation, carry out a flushing operation in which the volume of waterdrained from the valve downstream of the point of repair (point B) and the point of repair itself (point A) approximatelyrepresents 10 times the volume of water contained by the pipework section comprised between those two points.

. Air conditioning pipeworksFan coil units, cooling beams, heat pumps, may contain traces of synthetic oils incompatible with HTA® pipework.Therefore, they must be flushed perfectly clean before installation. Please refer to T.S.14.1 for more detailed guidance.

� HANDLING AND STORAGEThe pipes and fittings will be stored separately on an even area, away from dust and sun. In all cases, take special careto avoid rough handling, impacts and especially with indenting, cutting or heavy objects, particularly in cold weather.

� THERMOFORMINGThermoforming of pipes from the SYSTEM’O® range (HTA® and HTA-F®) is strictly prohibited on the work site andinvolves cancellation of the GIRPI guarantee. For all direction changes, make use of standard HTA® fittings only. ContactGIRPI’S Technical Assistance when faced with particular problems.

� CONNECTIONS BETWEEN SYSTEM’O® AND THREADED METAL COMPONENTSFittings that are equipped with threaded metal components: HMML, HEAL, HEBL, H4GL, H4GP, can be used when hightorque is required for connections to metal threaded components. They allow for the use of traditional sealants, exceptanaerobic resins.

Excluding connection to wall plates (namely our reference GAAP), obtained by means of tap connectors (HDR reference),connections between HTA® and metal pipes, fittings and equipment featuring male or female threads (conical/taper orcylindrical/parallel) must be made by means of the CPVC/metal couplings provided for this purpose.

In no case should GIRPI’s SYSTEM’O® pipes and fittings be machine threaded inside or outside.For all other “all-HTA®” threaded fittings (HEA, HEB, HMM) with metal reinforcing rings, connections with cylindrical/parallelthreaded metal components is possible. In such a case, they will be connected by hand. If needed, the last ¼ turn shallbe done with a tool, preferrably a strap wrench, but the use of tow, hemp or anaerobic resins is prohibited, knowingthat excessive tightening can cause the fittings to break up.

The following sealants will be preferred:- PTFE (e.g. “Teflon”) tape, preferrably high density.- Soft silicon paste. Drying time: 24h, which can be reduced to 3h minimum for sizes ½” and ¾”.

Please contact the silicone paste manufacturers to get their confirmation as to the compatibility resistance andsealing capacity under pressure of their products.

GENERAL RULES OF INSTALLATIONCOMMISSIONING, TESTS AND

PUTTING INTO SERVICE

Technical Sheet

2008

4.5� GENERALSYSTEM’O® pipes and fittings are inspected throughout their manufacture and are guaranteed for a use complying withtheir design, within the limits indicated.During the installation and before putting the SYSTEM’O® network into service, it is advisable to make a certain numberof checks, as with all other materials.In France, refer to guidelines DTU 60-31 (NF P41-211) and DTU 60-1 (NF P40-201).

� INSPECTIONa) Visual inspectionDuring and after installation, the pipes and fittings should be inspected so as to eliminate doubtful elements containing abnor-malities such as impacts and deep scores caused by unsuitable handling. Before the tests, the whole network will be visuallyinspected to eliminate any pipework section containing deep cuts or notches, large deformations due to sudden impacts, tracesof blow torch burns, etc... Any damaged part should be replaced before putting into service. The aim of the visual inspection is also to ensure that the ins-tallation complies with the drawings and hence the correct installation of all the components (connection, supports, monitoringand safety mechanisms, etc...).b) Leak testsAfter installation of the network, a leak test will be carried out (all parts of the network should be visible and accessible duringthat test). c) Pressure testThe network shall be filled with water (purge the air from all high points) and kept under pressure long enough to enable visualcontrol of all joints, and no less than 30 minutes (for large installations, test by sections). In France, consult DTU 60-1 (NF P40-201).The testing pressure will amount to 1.5 times the maximum working pressure, with a minimum of:- 6 bar for heating and cooling networks.- 10 bar for domestic hot and cold water services.. If a leak is detected on a welded joint, replace the leaking section and test again.. If a leak is detected on a mechanical joint, tighten the connection or replace gasket.d) Temperature testWhen raising the pipework’s temperature for the first time, the absence of leaks must be checked for all valves and joints.

� TEST BEFORE PUTTING INTO SERVICEOnce the leak tests have been made, it is advisable, in order to remove all foreign matter, to clean the inside of the network. All appli-cable tests and controls before putting into service must be carried out, according to all relevant regulations, rules and codes ofpractice.

� OPERATING CONDITIONSWhatever the use, the safety mechanisms necessary for the traditional protection of networks (regulation, pressure reductionand limitation, temperature regulation and limitation, shut off mechanisms, etc...), should be planned, installed and kept in per-fect working order throughout operation.a) VibrationsVibrations can be a source of disorders on both pipework and supports ; it is highly advisable to install a suitable system pre-venting vibrations from spreading.b) Sources of heat and UVBeing made from thermoplastic material, SYSTEM’O® should in no case be installed close to a source of heat causing a rise intemperature greater than its limits of use, and must be protected from exposure to ultraviolet rays.c) Prevention of impactsAs with all networks conveying pressurised fluids, SYSTEM’O® pipework systems must be protected from impacts which mightoccur in passage ways used by handling machinery or suspended loads in movement (use of safety barriers, railings, etc...).d) Chemical compatibilityHTA-F® pipes have been designed for the distribution of domestic cold water. For other applications, we draw your attention topotential compatibility problems if chemicals are introduced into the pipework.e) Air conditioning networksThe introduction of monopropylene glycol (MPG) antifreeze is prohibited.f) BracketingPipe brackets available on the marketplace may contain substances likely to cause alteration to SYSTEM’O® pipes. The use ofMONOKLIP® brackets is recommended.g) Insulation materialsElectric cable insulation materials contain substances that can potentially damage SYSTEM’O® pipes. Therefore, it is advisednot to store or install SYSTEM’O® pipes near electric cables.

EXPANSION - CONTRACTION PHENOMENON - CALCULATIONS

Technical Sheet

5.1

2008

� THE PHENOMENONAll materials whatsoever:

- expand when the temperature rises,- contract when the temperature drops.

� CALCULATION PARAMETERS FOR HTA®

The linear expansion coefficient of HTA®

and HTA®-F is:

The installation of the system must take the elongation or contraction of the pipe into account, which is calculated by thisformula in which:

α = expansion-contraction coefficient (linear)L = length of the piping when installed, in metersΔT = temperature deviation in degrees Celsius/Centigrade (°C)(difference between the maximum or minimum temperature in service and the installation temperature).ΔL = length variation in millimeters (mm)(difference in length between L on installation and L in operation, i.e. elongation or shrinkage length).

Ex 1 : installation temperature + 10°Cinstalled length 10 mworking temperature (fluid or room) + 60°CΔT = 60 - 10 = 50°CΔL = 0,065 x 10 x 50 = 33 mm

Ex 1 : installation temperature (fluid or room) + 15°Cinstalled length 30 mworking temperature (fluid or room) + 5°CΔT = 15 - 5 = 10°CΔL = 0,065 x 30 x 10 = 19 mm

ABACUS to work out the ΔL resulting from the above formula (see descriptive sheet 5.2)

Exemple � : Find the ΔL of a 10 m long pipe section for a ΔT = 50°CAnswer: 33 mm

Exemple � : Find the ΔL of a 30 m long pipe section for a ΔT = 10°CAnswer: 19 mm to find that result take 3,0 m on Ox and read 1,9 on Oy passing by ΔT 30°C and multiply the result by 10 = 1,9 mm x 10.

EXPANSION - CONTRACTIONCONSEQUENCES

Technical Sheet

5.3

2008

� CONSEQUENCES OF CONTRACTION-EXPANSION AND SOLUTIONSUnder certain conditions, the elongation due to the expansion causes compression of the pipe resulting in buckling.Conversely, the shortening due to the contraction of the pipe cause it to be tensioned. The sketches below illustrate a num-ber of cases of compression or tension, which cause abnormal stress on the material and may cause serious disorders.

The French DTU, ATEC, SINDOTEC handbooks, and various guides all over the world concerning the installation ofpiping, whatever their nature, generally indicate that “when installing, it is necessary, in order to avoid disorders which maybe caused by variations in length, to recognise them and address them”.

� EXPANSION (compression between fixed points).DON’Ts:

- buckling of the pipe between anchors

- thrust on the walls, obstacles, jointings or on the materials forming an anchor

� CONTRACTION (tension between fixed points)- tensioning of pipes, mechanical couplings, jointings between anchors

- tensioning between walls, obstacles, jointings or material forming an anchor

EXPANSION - CONTRACTIONREMEDIES

Technical Sheet

2008

5.4� THE REMEDIESIn order to avoid the disorders subsequent to the movements of the pipes, it is necessary to let them expand andcontract freely.

It is therefore necessary to:- Use pipe brackets allowing the longitudinal movements of the pipe to be guided (GUIDES).- See to it that there never is a straight length of pipe between 2 anchors, either by using a change in direction, or bymaking a loop (see illustration below).

1° Change in direction, which is generally efficient in most cases

2° Loop made with SYSTEM’O® pipes and fittings

3° Expansion joints (HCD/G flexibles)

� LINEAR COMPENSATORS (COMP BELLOWS)

Bellows and flexibles are elements which need no maintenance, but they are subject to wear. Assuch, they need to be checked at regular intervals (in France, refer to corresponding DTU guide-lines and NF standards, or equivalent relevant texts outside France). It must be possible to inspectthem, dismantle them, and replace them without having to dismantle the elements next to them.

VERTICAL INSTALLATION HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION

� INSTALLATIONNever work with sharp tools, which may damage the rubber bellows.The flange screws must not protrude towards the bellow. Under operating conditions, the spherical bellow rolls on thesmooth disks of the flange. All parts must be fully deburred and cleaned (otherwise, there is a risk of damaging the bel-lows).Rubber parts must not be painted (solvents and chemical products have a negative effect).We recommend that you use spacer wedges when you install the DILAPLAST compensator. This will maintain the spa-cing defined at installation temperature (E).Torque: refer to sheet 8-16 for backing flanges.For more information about Dilaplast compensators, please consult GIRPI for technical assistance.

MONOKLIP® BRACKETSGENERAL DESCRIPTION - SUPPORTING

SPACING

Technical Sheet

6.1

2008

� GENERAL DESCRIPTIONMONOKLIP® brackets have been especially designed to support SYSTEM’O® pipeworks. The pipe is allowed to move freely insidethe bracket as it expands and contracts. Depending on their size, they are offered with M6, M8 and 7x150 female threaded brassinserts, or with a plain 5.5mm diameter drilled base.

SYSTEM’O® is a complete system, specially developped to bring global reliability. Therefore, all of the system’s elements mustimperatively be used. The use of components of external origin will make GIRPI’s guarantee null and void, especially the use ofother brackets than MONOKLIP®.

In all cases, the supports:- shall continue to support their load even under temperature variation effects,- shall allow the pipeworks to expand freely,- shall keep the pipeworks which they support at enough clearance from any wall or obstacle so as to allow for the expansionmovements and also for the assembly and disassembly of the mechanical couplings and accessories (unions, flanges, valves,pressure limiters, etc... ),- shall in no event either injure or damage the pipeworks.

� SPACING OF SUPPORTS (FOR FILLED PIPEWORKS)

NOTE:For vertical pipes, the above distances can be multiplied by 1.3 up to 60°C and 1.2 for temperatures over 60°C. When tapsor heavy accessories are installed on a pipe, these must be supported independently.

� WEDGESMONOKLIP® brackets in sizes 16 to 25 can be heightened by using 20 mm high wedges (ref CALE1225) made for that purpose.- For MONOKLIP® brackets in sizes 32 to 63 use 20 mm or 4 mm high wedges (ref CALE3263) which can be piled up.- For MONOKLIP® brackets in sizes 75 to 110 use 20 mm high wedges (ref CALE75110) which can be piled up.

IMPORTANT:The sliding supports must be positioned in such a way that the couplings or accessories do not come in contact withthem when the pipes expand and contract.

Various accessories or special points require specific supporting: this supporting must be carefully designed in eachcase, to prevent the pipes from being subjected to mechanical forces.

CASE TYPES OF SUPPORT REASONS� • C-PVC male and female Free or fixed on either side To avoid tension on threads due to

threaded fittings and hose (double support) movement out of axisnozzles

� • Valves and fittings On either side and often Weight, must operate without twisting with fixed point on pipe and threads(double support)

� • Hoses/Expansion joints (See technical sheet 5.6) To allow movement without rotation, without moving out of axis and withoutchaffing

� • Riser bottom Free or fixed depending on the case To support the weight of the riser� • Direction changes Forming a right angle To allow translation of the loop arm,

6.4� DETERMINATION OF THE SELF SUPPORTING TRAY’S WIDTH• The total load to be supported must be centered on the basket tray.• Allow for enough clearance (for contraction and expansion) at the changes in direction.• Make clean openings (no sharp edges) to avoid damaging the insulating material and the pipe.

If the space between the pipe and the basket tray is not enough to compensate the contraction or the expansion, use one ofthe solutions presented on sheet 5.4: loop, flexible expansion joint, linear expansion compensator.

� BRANCHESWhen self-supporting trays are used, branches can be made above or below the pipes provided that a sufficiently large ope-ning is made without sharp edges, so as not to block or damage the insulating material or the pipe during expansion andcontraction movements.

INSULATIONINSULATED PIPEWORKS

Technical Sheet

6.5

2008

� INSULATIONThe low thermal conductivity coefficient (λ = 0.16 W/mK) of CPVC and the high thermal resistance of SYSTEM’O® helpsreduce heat losses and delay the condensation phenomena. Like all other materials, SYSTEM’O® must be insulated tobe protected against frost, to reduce heat losses and to avoid condensation when the outside pipe temperature is belowdew point.Most insulation products can be used, except those whose installation requirements (e.g. use of certain adhesives) orchemical composition are not compatible with SYSTEM’O®.If in doubt, the user must check the insulation product’s compatibility with its manufacturer or with GIRPI.Condensation phenomena resulting from the circulation of fluids colder than ambient temperature have no physical orchemical influence on SYSTEM’O®. Therefore, insulation is not systematically required. The decision will be made according to the installation’s specific cha-racteristics, and to the consequences of potential condensation on the environment around the pipework. In comparison with traditional metal pipeworks, SYSTEM’O® delays condensation.

� SURFACE TEMPERATUREThe table hereunder, showing various surface temperatures, shows that the low thermal conductivity of SYSTEM’O® pro-vides you with a security margin in situations such as: underdimensionned insulation, incorrectly jointed insulation sec-tions, insulation’s accidental failure...

Example:

� The following table shows the heat losses (expressed in W/m) of SYSTEM’O® pipeworks (with or without insulation:

� APPLICATIONS:

� Passing through partitions and floors

When a SYSTEM’O® pipe goes through a wall or a floor, it must be protected by a rigid sleeve made of synthetic material, and preferrably C-PVC.The sleeve internal diameter is chosen with enough tolerance to allow the pipes to expand and contract freely.The sleeve must be long enough to protrude on both sides of the finished masonry element.

� Built-in or embedded installations

SYSTEM’O® can be built or embedded in the masonry as long as there is no disconnectable coupling in that pipeworksection. The following precautions must be respected.

• The pipe must be made integral with the masonry either by means of the couplings making up the system or usinghalf-shells onto the wall of the pipe.• Each time the pipe enters the masonry it must be protected against shearing by a sleeve which protrudes from thefinished surface of the masonry.• The chase will be filled with a homogeneous material without sharp gravel which could damage the pipe.• The commissioning tests must be carried out before filling the chase or pouring the concrete.

� BURIED INSTALLATIONSSYSTEM’O® pipeworks can be buried if the following precautions are respected:

• The bottom of the excavation must be levelled and free of large grained materials and have nosurface hard spots.• A carefully compacted bed of 10 cm minimum will be made of clean sand 0/10 containing lessthan 10 % of fines.• The backfill directly in contact with the pipe (comprised of sand containing less than 12 % offines and free of gravel with diameter greater than 30 mm) will cover the pipe to a depth of 15cm minimum and will be compacted.

• The covering backfill will be compacted in successive layers comprised of materials removed from the trench and whichcontain less than 30 % of elements greater than 20 mm.• The minimum total height of the backfill above the pipe will be:• general case: 60 cm • under road/rail traffic: 80 cm • under concrete slab: 40 cm

� LOOP SYSTEMIn larger networks, loops must be planned at early design stage. Loops allow for emergency and continuous water treat-ments especially in the event of an epidemic. Furthermore, loops help keep water at a constant temperature, and ensureconstant water flow.

PRESSURE LOSSESCALCULATION RULES

Technical Sheet

2008

7.1� CALCULATION BASESThe quality of the internal surface condition of the SYSTEM’O® pipes and fittings guarantees a flow rate higher (for an equi-valent section) than the one provided by metal pipes.

To calculate the pressure loss in SYSTEM’O® pipes, GIRPI has had pressure loss nomograms at 7°C, 20°C, 45°C, 60°C,80°C produced by the CATED (Technical sheet 7.2 to 7.6).

These nomograms have been established using the formula:

with Colebrooks λ calculated as follows:

J = pressure losses (mCE/m)U = flow speed (m/s)D = pipe internal diameter (m)g = gravity acceleration (9,81 m/s2)λ = Colebrook factor (no measurement unit)Re = Reynold’s factor (no measurement unit) = ε = rugosity = 0,001 mmV = flow kinematic viscosity (m2/s)

When using antifreeze or additives, the viscosity of the resulting fluid must be taken into consideration to calculatepressure drops.

The weight of the ball valve and its correct use require its anchoring on a convenient support.There are two holes underneath the valve body which allow to hang it with bolts on the correct support.The table above gives the width of the holes and their spacing.. Valves in Ø 75 to 110 are carefully assembled in our workshops. It is strongly recommended NOT to dismantle the bac-king plates which ensure good valve operation. The socket flanges may be dismantled.

CHEMICAL RESISTANCE TABLES Technical Sheet

11.1

2008

The indications given in the tables below are extracts from French or foreign documents or the result of our own experi-ments. They cannot be considered to be absolute or guaranteed, as they are not valid in all specific operating conditions.It must also be noted that the nature of chemical agents and their mixtures, the presence of impurities, and the degree ofvulcanisation of elastomers, can lead to large variations in these indications; only practical tests in these cases can pro-vide valid results. We cannot be held liable for the indications given.The chemical agents are classified in alphabetical order.Meaning of symbols:2: Good resistance, 0: Not resistant (use not recommended), - : Not testedSPECIAL NOTE FOR BRASS:Some of the articles offered in SYSTEM’O® include brass components (a copper-zinc based alloy). These articleswere specially designed for potable water pipeworks. However, some particularly aggressive potable watersmight not be compatible with brass and cause brass components to deteriorate. Consequently, the people incharge of a project (contractors, consulting engineers, investors, etc.) need to check the potable water’s qualitywith the water supplying company, and get assurances from them and from the manufacturer that the water isindeed compatible with brass. Also, the compatibility of additives introduced into double purpose air conditio-ning networks (comfort cooling + heating in one single flow and return pipework) with brass must be checkedbefore use. You are requested to consult the manufacturer for applications other than domestic water servicesand double purpose air conditioning.

12.1

� CURATIVE SPOT TREATMENT

� CONTINUOUS TREATMENT

Bacteria which are potentially harmful to human beings and which contaminate pipeworks for hot and cold water servicesmust be eradicated using two treatment procedures: temperature elevation and chemical attack. The recommendationshereunder originate from the French Ministry of Health (DGS).

USED FOR CONTINUOUS TREATMENTS(Decontamination agent concentrations must remain compatible with potable water / feeding applications).

Chlorinated agents generating hypochlorites: Free Chlorine concentration equal or superior Sodium hypochlorite NaOCl, to 0.3mg/l according to the pipework, and to Molecular, Chlorine Cl2, the water’s quality and pH (concentrationCalcium hypochlorite, Ca(ClO)2 must not remain below 1mg/l at all times).This table was made according to the recommendations of the French High Council for Public Hygiene, taking into account thespecific requirements of health establishments.

USED FOR CURATIVE SPOT TREATMENTS IN DISRUPTED PIPEWORKS(Concentration levels of decontamination agents are given as an indication.

It must be ensured before use that the pipework materials are compatible with the recommended decontamination agents,at the concentration levels indicated).

Chlorinated agents generating hypochlorites: - 100mg/l free chlorine for 1hSodium hypochlorite NaOCl, - Or 50mg/l free chlorine for 12hMolecular, Chlorine Cl2, - Or 15mg/l free chlorine for 24hCalcium hypochlorite, Ca(ClO)2)This table was made according to the recommendations of the French High Council for Public Hygiene, taking into account the speci-fic requirements of health establishments. The decontamination processes recommended for spot treatments are not approved forlarge pipeworks. Therefore, those spot treatments are not quoted in the guide.It must be checked that the silver based stabilisers used are authorised by the Ministry of Health.

REFRIGERATION FLUIDS AND OTHERTechnical Sheet

13.1

2008

In general, heating / cooling (8°C / 50°C) so-called “reversible” 2-pipe air conditioning networks do not require the additionof any antifreeze fluid, since the use of such fluids would dictate the increase of some network components’ sizes. Should the network require the use of an antifreeze, an anticorrosion or a bactericide fluid, the compatibility of such fluidswith HTA® must be checked with their manufacturers or with GIRPI’s Technical Assistance.

Monopropyleneglycol (MPG) is not compatible with CPVC material.

• Air cooling terminal units (e.g. fan coil units, cooling panels, cooling beams…) may contain residual quantities of metalmachining lubricating oils (generally located in the coils). Such oils are not compatible with CPVC and can cause the pipe-work to suffer from major disorders. It is your responsibility to get your supplier to guarantee the coils’ cleanliness before installation

• Products containing: esthers, ethoxyles, amines are not compatible with CPVC.

• Silica and Phosphate based anticorrosion fluids are known to corrode the EPDM components of the flexible expansionjoints. Their use is prohibited. More generally, the compatibility of such anticorrosion fluids with flexible expansion jointsmust be checked with their manufacturers.

It is reminded that for all comfort cooling or chilled water applications, GIRPI’s KRYOCLIM® pipework systemis perfectly adapted.

14.1� GENERAL PRECAUTIONS VALID FOR ALL INSTALLATIONSIn every case, particular attention should be paid to the cleanliness and absence of any oil trace on the teminal units (fancoil units, cooling beams, etc.). It is the installer’s responsibility to make contact with his supplier or to clean the terminalunits. In order to avoid the accidental introduction of synthetic oil or traces of synthetic oil into the HTA® pipework, the HTA® net-work must be separated from the heat pump by means of a “heat exchanger” installed between a primary CHW networkmade from another material than HTA® (e.g. metal) and a secondary CHW network made from HTA®, following the diagrambelow:

� MAINTENANCE OF THE PIPEWORKIn order to prevent sludge from building up inside and around the pipes, their corrosion due to various deposits must beavoided by:- Periodical visual checks of the pipework’s state of cleanliness.- As soon as a leak seems to appear, check for the absence of corrosion or cracks by using endoscopy, ultrasounds ormagnetic / electric fields (“courants de Foucault”).

� MAINTENANCE OF THE CHILLER UNITDuring the unit’s working life, service controls and tests must be carried out in accordance with applicable regulations.Any leak, however small, is unacceptable. Every measure should be taken to avoid leak risks, and immediate actionshould be taken to eliminate each and every detected leak.Every sampling process and emptying of the refrigeration fluid in the primary circuit must be carried out by a qualifiedtechnician and with adapted material.Yearly leak control operations must be recorded in the maintenance book.For big sized machines, a vibratory signature (“signature vibratoire”) must be carried out when first started, and periodi-cally during the installation’s working life.

� MAINTENANCE OF THE PRIMARY CIRCUIT (CONTAINING REFRIGERATION FLUID)The pipework must be flushed perfectly clean before use, as well as the chiller unit’s heat exchangers, and the exchan-gers of the terminal units (fan coil units, cooling beams, etc.).The installer must make sure that the units installed have been properly cleaned before delivery, and that the antifreezerefrigeration liquids are compatible with the materials installed (gaskets – pipeworks).Take every precaution to avoid installation disorders such as the generation of sludge.The system must always be kept in perfect working orderPeople in charge of the air conditionning installation’s maintenance and cleaning need to protect themselves from at leastthree problems:

1) Internal corrosion of the pipes which may lead to the formation of holes or leaking cracks.2) Vibrations transmitted at exchanger level, which may cause the pipework to break.3) Refrigeration liquids freezing solid.

DESCRIPTION FOR SPECIFICATION

Pipework system made from synthetic material (CPVC) for the transportation of hot andcold pressurized fluids.

FIELDS OF APPLICATION:Hot Water Services and Cold Water Services (HWS & CWS).

IDENTIFICATION:The pipes shall be coloured all through their mass, and their colour will allow for differenciation between CWS(orange) and HWS (brown).Only one type of fittings, coloured all through their mass, shall be used (brown).Only one welding polymer (orange), allowing for the commissioning of welds, shall be used. The range of pipes for HWS shall be:

- PN25 from diameter 16 to 63 - series 4.- PN16 from diameter 32 to 160 - series 6.3

The range of pipes for CWS shall be:- PN16 from diameter 16 to 160.

All pipes and fittings shall be qualified for transporting water at 70°C.All components of the system (including fittings and welded joints) shall be tested at alternate pressures of20/60 bar, at a rate of: - 5000 cycles per hour for diameters 16 to 90, - 2500 cycles per hour for diameters 110 to 160, according to NF T 54-094 standard.The system shall come from an ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified company:The system shall be ATEC certified (ATEC = NF certificate in the absence of an appropriate standard) for diame-ters 16 to 160, and for the following fields of application: distribution of domestic hot and cold water, class 2 (for-merly HCWS class).Both pipes and fittings for the distribution of domestic hot and cold water shall be ACS certified (ACS = SanitaryCompliance Certificate, issued by the French Ministry of Health).The system shall be certified by CSTBat (CSTBat = Scientifical Center for Building Techniques).The system’s fire rating shall be Bs1d0 certified according to EUROCLASSES.

WELDING POLYMER:The joints between the system’s various elements (pipes and fittings) shall be performed by cold chemical welding,by using the orange coloured welding polymer, allowing for the commissioning of welds.Curing times, before the reinstatement of a 6 bar pressure shall be guaranteed by the manufacturer and shall varybetween 1 and 2 hours, according to the ambient temperature and the joint’s diameter.

TREATMENTS FOR THE PREVENTION OF BACTERIA AND DECONTAMINATION OF SAME:In consideration of the existing development of certain bacteria in HCWS pipeworks, the system shall be able towithstand all treatments known todate, such as thermal shock treatments, or chlorine shock treatment withoutlimitation of the treatment product’s concentration rate.

GUARANTEES:The manufacturer must be able to provide professional training courses for the implementation of his system.The manufacturer’s Technical Assistance Department shall be able to validate solutions brought to address expansionand contraction phenomena encountered on the pipeworks, or to draw an execution drawing made from the generaldrawings supplied by the contracting company in charge of a project.

ENVIRONMENT:The system shall be recyclable through an existing recovery network. The system shall comply with H.E.Q. (HighEnvironmental Quality) requirements. The manufacturer shall be able to supply reliable environmental data.
