CPVC Fire Sprinkler Piping




Materials

CPVC Fire Sprinkler Piping Products are chemically formulated for outstanding performance in fire sprinkler systems. The properties of the material (including temperature capabilities, low flame spread, etc.) and the pipe dimensions provide unique advantages in sprinkler applications.

Product Characteristics

CPVC sprinkler pipe is produced to SDR 13.5 dimensions in strict accordance with ASTM F442. The use of CPVC produced to these dimensions provides a tough, smooth, large internal diameter piping which results in low friction loss. Exceptional hydraulic characteristics can allow the use of smaller diameter systems that still meet the water delivery needs of sprinkler service. Although classified as a rigid system, the pipe’s inherent flexibility and light weight simplify installation.

Approvals

CPVC Fire Sprinkler Piping Products are designed and Listed for a rated working pressure of 175 psi @ 150°F for wet pipe systems. They are listed by Underwriters Laboratories for use in Light Hazard occupancies (NFPA 13), and Residential occupancies (NFPA 13R & 13D). The listing also includes use in Return Air Plenums under NFPA 90A, use in Underground Service Mains (NFPA 24), and use in Exposed systems with certain restrictions.

CPVC pipes are in great demand owing to its high resistant against fire and damage. These pipes are resistant to chemicals as well.
