Product catalog summary
System Description
CASAFLEX district heating pipes are flexible connection pipes from BRUGG Pipe Systems, designed for small to midsize district heating networks, industrial, agricultural applications, solar collector plants, and swimming pool installations. They feature a spiral-corrugated stainless steel carrier pipe, CFC-free PIR rigid foam insulation, and a PE-LD casing, allowing for easy installation and adaptation to various routing conditions.
Specifications
- Maximum continuous operation temperature: 160°C
- Maximum peak temperature: 180°C
- Operating pressure: PN 16 to PN 25
Materials include nickel chromium steel for the carrier pipe, CFC-free polyisocyanurate rigid foam for insulation, and low-density polyethylene for the protective casing. Monitoring wires are included for moisture detection.
Components
The system includes T-joints, Flex-T-branches, Y-branch pipes, connectors, and accessories like PUR foam containers and pipe warning tape.
Installation
Guidelines cover pipe routing, trench dimensions, connection types, and building entry. The use of alignment rails and bending machines is recommended to assist installation.
Performance
Pressure Loss: Illustrated with a chart showing pressure loss at different mass flow rates and pipe types.
Heat Loss: Detailed for CASAFLEX UNO and DUO ranges, with heat loss values for various operating temperatures.
Recommendations
For optimal installation and performance, use the shortest pipe routes and recommended installation aids. Proper handling of coils and components during delivery and installation is essential.
Overview
The document provides technical specifications and installation guidelines for CASAFLEX district heating pipes, focusing on connectors, joints, and accessories. It includes descriptions of pipe types, connection methods, and installation requirements.
Procedures
Installation procedures detail the use of connectors and joints, emphasizing the transition from conventional piping to CASAFLEX systems and the importance of proper insulation.
Standards and Recommendations
Trained personnel should handle installations, especially for connectors with higher pressure ratings (PN 25). Safety regulations must be followed when handling materials like PUR foam.
Accessories
Accessories such as PUR foam containers, pipe warning tape, and wall seals are discussed, with conditions for use including temperature limits and installation depths.
Installation Guidelines
Trench dimensions and pipe routing methods are detailed, including the loop-in method for house-to-house connections. Compliance with EN 13941-2 standards is required.
Fixed Point Forces
A table of fixed point forces for different pipe diameters and pressure levels is provided, emphasizing the need for planners to consider these forces when designing fixed points.
Wall Openings
Specifications for wall openings are provided, detailing minimum dimensions for different pipe diameters to ensure proper installation and sealing.
Specifications and Components
Specifications for CASAFLEX pipes include the necessity of fixed-point clamps for pipe expansion. Worksheets provide detailed specifications for components like connectors and wall sealing rings.
Core Bores and Sealing
Core bores are essential for installation, requiring perfect bores and suitable sealant for tightness. Seal set types are specified for different pressure levels.
Shaft Structures
Shaft structures must be watertight and ventilated. Pre-insulated T-pieces and fittings are recommended to avoid high costs and increase reliability.
Construction Work
Guidelines for maintaining static equilibrium of the CASAFLEX pipe during construction are provided, including open trench lengths and sand supports.
Open Installation
Special measures for open installation include using a continuous mounting rail and supporting changes of direction. Clamps and pressure distribution plates are specified, with limitations to PN 10.
