Electrofusion coupling 160 SDR11, water-gas 70173016011AGR

Electrofusion coupling DN160 SDR11 PE100

An electrofusion coupling with a diameter of DN160 and SDR11 class, made of PE100 polyethylene, is a key component of water supply, gas, and sewage installation systems. The AGRU Frank (Polytech) brand product is characterized by full compatibility with polyethylene pipes.

Construction and technical parameters

The element is made of black PE100 polyethylene. The SDR11 (Standard Dimension Ratio) classification denotes the ratio of the outside diameter to the wall thickness.

Electrofusion welding utilizes built-in spiral heating elements, which, under the influence of an electric current, melt the contact surface of the coupling and the pipe, creating a uniform molecular bond.

Application and compatibility

The coupling is intended for drinking and utility water installations, gas systems, and sewage networks. The availability of diameters from 20 mm to 315 mm allows for selecting the appropriate size for specific design requirements.

Compatibility with PE100 pipes with a diameter of 160 mm allows for the creation of homogeneous systems without the risk of differences in thermal expansion or galvanic corrosion.

Advantages of the electrofusion system

Electrofusion welding eliminates the need for external tools - all elements required for the process are built into the coupling.

The connection does not constitute a weak point in the installation. Additionally, the process does not require special surface preparation beyond standard cleaning.

The system enables precise control of welding parameters via an electronic controller, which automatically adjusts the time and temperature to the ambient conditions and the type of material.
