Electrofusion socket d315 PE100, SDR17, PN5 gas/PN10 water 753911823

Electrofusion fitting for PE 100 connections

The fitting is designed for joining polyethylene (PE) pipes using electrofusion welding. Made of high-quality PE-100 polyethylene with a standardized dimension ratio SDR 17, it ensures a durable and safe connection in gas and water installations. It is a component of pipeline systems that allows for the construction of branches, repair of damaged sections, and connection of pipes with the same diameter.

Construction and application

The fitting with a nominal diameter of DN 300 and an outer diameter of 315 mm is designed for use with PE-100 pipes. Its simple construction facilitates installation, and the material – polyethylene – guarantees resistance to corrosion and mechanical damage. The circumferential stiffness class SN16 indicates good resistance to external loads. The fitting finds application in:

• Construction of water supply and sewage networks.
• Gas installations (up to PN5 pressure).
• Irrigation systems.
• Industrial installations transporting chemical media (after verifying material compatibility).
• Repair and modernization of existing networks.

Key features and benefits

• Durable connection: Electrofusion welding provides a tight and durable connection, resistant to pressure and weather conditions.
• Corrosion resistance: PE-100 polyethylene is a non-corrosive material, which extends the life of the installation.
• Versatility: Can be used in gas (PN5) and water (PN10) installations.
• Easy installation: The simple construction of the fitting facilitates the welding process, reducing installation time.
• High-quality material: PE-100 is a high-density polyethylene, characterized by good mechanical and chemical resistance.
• Standardized dimension: SDR 17 ensures compliance with applicable standards.
• Safety: The fitting is manufactured in accordance with safety requirements for gas and water installations.

The fitting has a Zeta value of 0.1, which is an important parameter in the design of welded polyethylene connections – it affects the stability of the connection during operation under pressure. The raw surface condition of the connection surfaces prepares them for the welding process, ensuring optimal adhesion of the materials. The one-piece construction simplifies the installation process compared to multi-element solutions.
