Ecopal - Model SN 16 -Polypropylene Pipe

Co-extruded structured polypropylene twin-layer pipe with high module of elasticity, plain and violet internally, corrugated and black externally, for underground and no pressure sewer pipes, manufactured according to the EN 13476 standard, type B, stiffness class SN 16 kN/m2, available in bars of 6 (or 12) m, provided with jointing coupler in PEAD certified by the mark P IIP and EPDM lip seal.

The pipe must be manufactured by a company with ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 14001:2004 certification (environmental certification).

1. Nominal outer diameter ND ...Minimum inner diameter ID …(> than to the minimum established by the reference rule).
2. Ring stiffness class SN measured on samples according to EN ISO 9969 standard.
3. Abrasion resistance certified according to EN 295-3.
4. Tightness of the jointing system certified at 0.5 bar under pressure and 0.3 bar under negative pressure for 15 minutes according to EN 1277 rule.
5. Marking according to the standard, including: trade-mark name, UNI/IIP mark (only for DN/ID) and standard reference, P IIP mark (only for DN/ID) and standard reference, nominal diameter (DN/ID or DN/OD), stiffness class, material, prophile type, application area code, day/month/year, hour/minute of production.

The Ecopal Advantages
Ecopal is made with high density polyethylene, that is, a polymer which offers a high impact resistance even at low temperatures as well as an excellent chemical resistance, presents better resistance to the abrasion in respect to other materials used in pipe production.

Ecopal peculiar geometric structure guarantees a high deflection resistance and it is produced in two ring stiffness classes (Class 4 kN/m2 - Class 8 kN/m2). In this way the pipe can fulfil different applications even in deep underground.

Ecopal outer black wall guarantees a high UV stability, inner wall is white to ease the pipe TV inspection.

Ecopal is produced in 6 and 12 meter bars; in this way the number of joints is reduced.

Ecopal can be connected with coupler and elastomeric seal or butt welding. The elastomeric seal is placed inside the corrugation, thus avoiding the risk of being displaced during the coupling operation.

The elastomeric seal of a particular profile not only avoids leakage, but also the groundwater entrance into the pipe.

Ecopal is extremely versatile, due to the possibility to have a wide assortment of special fittings and can be connected with any other type of existing pipes.

Ecopal is extremely easy to handle due to its lightness. It is easy to store, to transport and to install and does not need any particular equipment to be moved.

Ecopal is partially flexible and can avoid obstacle during pipe-lining and digging inaccuracy.
