PVC-C CTS FlowGuard PVC-C pipe 1/2" 4700N-005

FlowGuard PVC-C Pipes – Reliability and Durability of Installations

FlowGuard PVC-C pipes are an advanced solution for building water supply and heating installations, characterized by exceptional resistance and durability. Made of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (PVC-C), they are an ideal alternative to traditional materials such as copper or steel. Up to 2 inches in diameter, they are produced in a dimensional system compatible with copper pipe standards – the CTS (Copper Tube Size) system with SDR11 dimensions. Above 2 inches, they are available in the IPS (Iron Pipe Size) system. Elements are connected using aggressive adhesives, ensuring tight and durable connections that withstand a pressure test of 1.0 MPa. Installation is quick and safe, requiring no specialized tools or electricity.

Application and benefits

FlowGuard PVC-C pipes are widely used in:

• hot and cold water installations,
• air conditioning installations,
• industrial installations for the transport of various chemical compounds.

Why choose FlowGuard PVC-C pipes?

• Exceptional durability: The estimated service life of the installation is at least 50 years.
• Chemical resistance: Resistance to several hundred chemical compounds ensures versatile application.
• No corrosion: The material is corrosion-resistant, guaranteeing long-term reliability.
• Biological inertness: The pipes are physiologically and microbiologically inert, ensuring safety for health.
• Quick installation: Cold gluing is simple, fast and does not require specialized tools.
• Low thermal conductivity: Reduces heat loss and minimizes the need for additional thermal insulation.
• Damping properties: Reduces vibrations and noise in the installation.
• Lightweight: Several times lighter than traditional materials, making transport and installation easier.
• Smooth inner surface: Reduces flow resistance, allowing for a reduction in pipe diameters.
• Fire safety: The material does not support combustion and limits the emission of toxic substances during a fire.
• Electrical insulation: Prevents galvanic corrosion in ground installations.

Construction and parameters

The 1/2 inch diameter PVC-C pipe (4700N-005) is made of high-quality chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (PVC-C). The CTS (SDR11) system ensures compatibility with existing copper installations. The pipes are available in beige, which makes it easier to identify the water system. Thanks to its construction and material properties, these pipes are characterized by high resistance to pressure and temperature (up to 70°C continuous operation and 95°C emergency). The use of appropriate aggressive adhesives guarantees tight connections with high mechanical strength. This ensures that the installation is durable, safe and reliable for many years of use.
