GENERAL OVERVIEW

A B S

ABS (acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene) is a modern thermoplastic polymerfound in everyday applications such as construction site safety helmets.

Piping Systems manufactured from this polymer display outstandingproperties and so makes ABS pipes the first choice for many of the mostdemanding piping applications.

ABS pipe and fittings are designed and manufactured by EURATECH to suitlocal conditions.

The EURAPIPE piping systems is manufactured from ABS polymer.

ENVIRONMENTAL ADVANTAGE

The use of ABS contributes positively to the environment as it takesapproximately one sixth of the energy to manufacture compared to metalproducts. This has direct savings in green house gas emissions.

Additionally ABS is lead and chlorine free and can be readily recycled.

IMPACT STRENGTH

The butadiene constituent in ABS affords unrivalled resistance to impact. Thismeans that Eurapipe ABS Plastic Piping Systems may be used in more criticalapplications where other types of plastics could not be considered.

CHEMICAL RESISTANT

EURAPIPE ABS is unaffected by both internal and external chemical attack bya wide range of acids, alkalis, ground water salts and other environmentalfactors.

ABRASION RESISTANT

EURAPIPE ABS offers good resistance to abrasion and erosion from aggressiveslurries which can rapidly damage steel or other traditional pipe materials.

WEATHER RESISTANT

EURAPIPE ABS is one of the most weather resistant polymers available today.Successful field tests have been completed on piping systems having beenexposed to weathering for over 30 years.

PIPE SYSTEMS

Page 8: ABS Pipe Design Manual

Issue 1 Revision 1

NON-TOXIC/TAINT FREE

The ABS formulation contains no harmful metallic stabilizers and it has beenwidely used for many years in piping systems for high purity water, medicalpreparations, food products and soft drinks.

EURAPIPE ABS systems is ideal for potable cold water. They conform toWorld Health Organisation, E.E.C. and AS 4020 requirements for potable waterreticulation and distribution.

EXCEPTIONALLY SMOOTH BORE

EURAPIPE ABS does not suffer from internal corrosion and provides a smoothbore for the life of the piping system.

The smooth bore does not support the formation of scale and slime as docement based lined products.

SIZE AND PRESSURE RANGE

EURAPIPE ABS piping systems is manufactured in sizes ranging from 15mmto 630mm. Standard pressure ratings at 20˚C start at 450 KPa and go to1500 KPa (PN4.5 to PN 15). Larger sizes and heavier classes are indevelopment and reference should be made to Euratech.

TEMPERATURE RANGE

A great advantage of EURAPIPE ABS over other plastic systems is its abilityto perform over a wide temperature range from -40˚C to + 70˚C. This makesEURAPIPE ABS very versatile and capable of handling a wide variety offluids from refrigerants to moderately hot corrosive liquids.

LIGHT WEIGHT

ABS is one-sixth the weight of steel systems, making EURAPIPE easy tohandle and install. This reduces the cost of installation, handling and transport.

JOINING SYSTEMS

Cold Solvent Weld Joining

The EURAPIPE size range also utilizes the proven traditional method ofjoining ABS pipes, cold solvent cement welding, which provides an homogenousbond between pipes and fittings (SWJ).

Elastomeric Seal Joining

The EURAPIPE size ranges utilise an elastomeric seal joining systems (RubberRing Joint, or RRJ).

Other Joint Systems

Other joint systems are also available as standard for EURAPIPE systemsand are detailed further in this catalogue.

INTRODUCTION

Because of a unique balance of properties, modern ABS copolymers are beingused on an ever increasing scale for the manufacture of many industrial anddomestic products.

The material is very tough and resilient, has high impact strength, goodchemical resistance and is non toxic and taint free. These advantageousproperties have attracted engineers in many industries to the use of ABSpiping systems rather than traditional material, which do not have thesedistinctive benefits.

ABS piping systems are replacing many failed piping systems made fromother materials.

The Euratech ABS system comprises a range of matched pressure pipes andfittings, joined together by a wide variety of methods including cold solventcement welding or our rubber ring joint system.

THE MATERIAL

Acrylonitrile - Butadiene - Styrene (ABS) identifies a family of engineeringthermoplastics with a broad range of performance characteristics.

The copolymeric system is alloyed to yield the optimum balance of propertiessuited to the selected end use.

ACRYLONITRILE - imparts chemical resistance and rigidity.

BUTADIENE - endows the product with impact strength, toughnessand abrasion resistance.

STYRENE - contributes to the lustre, ease of processing andrigidity.

MATERIALS PROPERTIES

The formulation used by Euratech has been developed in conjunction withpolymer manufacturers to optimise performance in respect to tensile strength,chemical resistance, ductility, resistance to weathering, heat stability, lowtoxicity, taint free and ease of processing from raw material to finishedproduct.

ABS is tough and strong over the recommended temperature range of-40˚ C to + 70˚ C.

The outstanding properties of ABS are:

High impact strength and ductility, which combine to give exceptionaltoughness.

Good chemical resistance.

Abrasion resistance.

High strength solvent weld jointing which allows efficient systemassembly and modification.

Rubber Ring jointing methods, allowing compatible systems jointingtechniques.

Non Toxic and non-taint properties.

Withstands aggressive ground waters.

High strain tolerance for buried applications.

Good resistance to ultraviolet light.

Lower celerity and extreme tolerance to water hammer surges.

IMPACT STRENGTH

ABS is a relatively ductile thermoplastic which exhibits very high impactstrength compared to other thermoplastics such as uPVC particularly atmoderate low temperatures. It is for this reason ABS is used in demandingapplications requiring exceptionally high impact strength material such asconstruction site safety helmets.

As part of the EURATECH quality assurance programme, sample lengths ofpipe are routinely impact tested in accordance with AS3518. Samples arechilled to 0˚C to stimulate field operating conditions.

ABS is unique in retaining high levels of impact strength at sub zerotemperatures and is significantly superior to most other thermoplastics inthis respect.

The graph shows the relatively small reduction in impact strength of ABSbetween 20˚C and 0˚C compared with another thermoplastics pipe systems.

MODE OF FAILURE

ABS is a ductile material and the mode of failure resembles that of softcopper. Failure is by ductile distortion and tearing, the localized natureminimizing the loss of pipe contents.

In contrast, the failure of brittle material is accompanied by crack propagationand hazardous material fragmentation.

The photograph illustrates an impact failure in ABS pipe under pressure whichmay be compared to the brittle failure mode exhibited by another commonthermoplastic pipe work material subjected to the same test and displayedalongside.

THERMAL EXPANSION

All thermoplastics expand at a greater rate than metals as shown in thediagram above.

Expansion need not cause undue concern in design or installation of an ABSpiping system provided that due recognition is taken at the design stage. Thereduced flexural modulus of ABS over that of steel results in reduced loadson supports and equipment arising from thermal strains.

The linear coefficient of thermal expansion of ABS is 10.1 x 10-5 m/m˚C.

TOXICITY AND TAINT

ABS is free from heavy metal stabilizers such as lead which are often usedin the processing of other thermoplastic materials. Therefore, there is nopossibility of any toxic heavy metals substances being leached from the ABSpipe material into the fluid being conveyed by the pipe.

EURATECH ABS conforms to AS4020 and has been safely used for many yearswith potable water, grade I distilled water for medical use, renal dialysisfluid and many foods and beverages.

ABS is regarded as taint free and has been used for conveying potable water,beer, soft drinks, caramel, wines, sauces, chocolate, custard cream and othersimilar products. It is recommended that food and drink manufacturers testfor taste tainting on their own product before installation commences.

RIGIDITY AND STIFFNESS

ABS is classified as a rigid thermoplastic over its working temperature range- 40˚C to +70˚C.

With increased temperature, pipe rigidity decreases thus necessitating morefrequent support. At 70˚C. continuous support is required on the horizontal.

WEATHERING

EURATECH ABS Piping systems are suitable for external installation underextreme conditions without additional surface protection.

When ABS products are exposed to the weather, they will suffer some minordegradation of the exposed surface. The degradation results in a reductionof surface gloss, and shift in surface colour to light grey. The degradation isconfined to the exposed surface only.

The effect of long-term exposure to sunlight over prolonged periods hasminimal effect on the physical properties of ABS systems.

ABRASION RESISTANCE

ABS piping systems have long been successfully employed in applicationswhere abrasion resistance is the prime consideration. The conveying of slurriesin the mining, food, power generation and waste water industries is a typicalexample where ABS has been demonstrated to outlast steel and stainlesssteel pipes previously employed.

The chemical resistance of ABS combined with impact resistance makes it anideal choice for such corrosive and erosive environments.

It is these conditions which lead to reduced life of metal pipe systems.

The rubber-like butadiene phase in ABS provides this piping material withoutstanding resistance to abrasive media.

EURATECH sales engineers have the experience to advise on the suitability ofABS pipe for slurry or abrasive applications.

For gravity flow systems the long term low surface roughness enables lesssteep slopes to be used. Lower slopes can mean reduced building heightswhich has a great effect on capital costs. Additionally, lower slopes reducetransport velocity, which in turn reduces the wearing of the piping material.

Because of the relatively high flexural modulus of ABS, the stresses inducedin a component whilst in service result in smaller strains, therefore minimisingthe possibility of environmental stress cracking of the exposed surface.

This resistance to failure is further improved by the inherently high impactstrength of ABS, particularly at low temperatures, and the ability of thepolymer to withstand long term heat exposure with little change to physicalproperties.

DESIGNINTRODUCTION

Thermoplastic pressure piping systems show considerable cost savingscompared with traditional materials, particularly when chemical resistance,external coating, internal lining, resilience and installation time is taken intoaccount.

The modern engineer sees the many advantages that ABS systems bring tothe end user. In applying design principles to the specific criteria ofthermoplastic materials the engineer can take advantage of the database ofcase histories, modern industry standards and use the physical properties ofthe material.

From this information the following decisions may be made:

Pipe material to be used

Diameter, pressure class and stiffness of pipe to be used

Jointing system, e.g. cold solvent cement welding, rubber ring joints,flanges etc.

Supporting arrangements for pipes and valves

Trench design

Route detailsSYSTEM SELECTION CRITERIA

A basic process specification for the piping system should be engineered. Inmany cases this can be a very informal study, but where the application ofservice is of a more critical nature, this should involve some careful researchinto the exact or anticipated process conditions.

Some points to be considered are:

Operating temperature and pressure

Composition of media

Support system design

Design to accommodate thermal expansion

External conditions

PIPE DESIGN CRITERIA

Euratech’s pipe design is in accordance with the requirements set out inAS3518.

Design factor of Safety (F)

This factor is applied to the minimum ultimate strength of material to establish“safe” (conservative) working loads.

Euratech has designed its standard range of pipes using minimum designsafety factors of 1.6 and 2.1. This degree of safety margin in the design ofpipes means that the standard EURAPIPE range of pipes are suitable forapplication in critical services such as permanent urban water supplyapplications and where high security is required for the transport of hazardouschemicals.

Design Basis

This is a period, usually a minimum of 50 years according to convention,which is used to determined the long term hydrostatic strength of ABS pipe.Obviously this does not mean that the pipe will fail.

Hydrostatic Design Stress

This hydrostatic design stress (HDS) is the minimum required strength (MRS)divided by the Design Safety Factor. For the minimum design safety of 1.6used in the EURAPIPE pipe ranges, the maximum HDS of 10 MPa is used.

Long Term Hydrostatic Strength (σ LCL)

This is the 97.5% lower confidence limit value of hoop stress, continuouslyapplied at a specified temperature that the pipe wall material can supportfor a specified time. This value is calculated using the statistical proceduresdetailed in the standard extrapolation method of ISO / TR 9080.

Minimum Required Strength (MRS)

This is the minimum value of σLCL for a temperature of 20˚C and for theconventional period of 50 years. The ABS material used to manufactureEURAPIPE has an MRS of 16 MPa.

PN Value

This is the nominal working pressure at 20˚C, in bar (10 bar = 1 MPa).

Stress Regression

At a constant temperature the time to failure due to stress of a thermoplasticpipe is inversely proportional to the magnitude of the stress. By conducting aseries of burst tests on ABS material at different stress levels, a graph ofstress versus time to fracture can be plotted. This is always shown as a log-log plot and is known as the Stress Regression Characteristic for the pipe. Itis representing a possible “life” for the pipe manufactured from the selectedABS raw material compound. See figure below.

FLOW CALCULATIONS FOR LIQUIDS

The extreme smoothness of the EURATECH pipe wall and the chemicalresistance of the material prevent internal corrosion. Consequently, thehydraulic characterstics of an ABS EURAPIPE pipe generally remain constantfor the life of the system. Euratech ABS EURAPIPE pipes do not need to be“oversized” in the design stage to allow for future performance losses due tocorrosion.

For gravity pipe systems where the flow regime may be partially full, theengineer should refer to the procedure in AS2200 - Design charts for watersupply and sewerage.

PRESSURE LOSS CALCULATION PROCEDURE

Pressure drops due to friction may be determinde for practical purposes usingnomograms (flow charts). Full range of nomograms for applications wherethe media is water can be found at the end of this catalogue.

The fluid pressure loss through fittings may be included in the overall systempressure loss by calculating the equivalent length of pipe equal to the pressureloss through individual fittings.

The calculation of pressure loss in fittings is:

Eƒ = F x D

whereE

ƒ= equivalent length of straight pipe for fittings, m

F = fittings constant (see adjacent column)D = fittings diameter, mm

To calculate the total pressure loss in the system, the equivalent straight pipelength for fittings is added to the total measured straight pipe length.

Etotal

= Eƒ + E

P

whereE

P= the pipeline length, m

ALTERNATIVE PROCEDURE

The aforementioned method will provide a conservative selection of pipediameter and class for an application. A more rigorous approach will derivesignificant savings in the design of a pipe system.

THERMAL EXPANSION

Expansion is not a problem during the installation of an ABS EURAPIPE pipesystems provided the appropriate provisions are made during the design stage.

The linear coefficient of thermal expansion for Euratech ABS pipe is10.1 x 10-5 m/m˚C (5.6 x 10-5ft/ft˚F).

The variation in pipe wall temperature should be used in the followingequation to calculate the maximum pipe thermal movement. (Pipe operatingand shut down conditions should be considered when evaluating extremetemperature variations.)

∆L = L x C x ∆Twhere∆L = pipe expansion/contraction, mL = original pipe length, mC = linear coefficient of thermal expansion, m/m˚C∆T = pipe wall temperature variation, ˚C

The mid-wall temperature is dependent on the internal and externalenvironmental temperatures with the temperature of the flowing mediahaving the greater influence.

In the vast majority of cases, effective route planning can eliminate therequirement of expansion loops, or expansion bellows etc. with consequentfinancial savings.

The basic principle of design is to allow pipe runs to move axially from afixed point (anchor) and then guide this movement into a change of pipedirection ensuring that the pipe is free to flex as shown in fig. 1.

An inappropriate installation is shown in Fig 2. The pipe run is fixed at onend (A) and constrained at the other (B). As the temperature increases thepipe will try to expand but will have nowhere to go as the ends are constrainedby clip (B). Thus the pipe will ‘snake’ between supports as indicated.

In Fig 3, effective route leg planning has eliminated the need for expansionloops etc. by a simple redesign of pipe supports. By utilising a suitable pipesupport to allow free lateral pipe movement, the pipe can be installed withsufficient flexibility to expand and contract. The support at (C) remains butthe clip at pipe support (B) is eliminated to give sufficient length for flexibility.

Calculate the expansion

- Establish an anchor point midway along the straight length of pipe tocontrol the direction of any movement.

- Position pipe supports away from change of direction to allow requiredmovement.

- The extent of movement to be accommodated at each end from theneutral position will be ± 25% of the total expansion. Example, if totalcalculated expansion is 100mm, 50mm of this is to be accommodatedat each end, which is ± 25mm from the neutral position, see Fig 5.

EXPANSION LOOPS (ABOVE GROUND)

Length of the expansion loop legs, (H) for sizes up to DN 400 can bedetermined using the adjacent table. Please refer to Euratech for furtherinformation.

The expansion loop table can also be used for calculating flexibility requiredat changes in direction.

Expansion loop dimensions can be reduced considerably by the use of tandembellows. Refer Euratech for details.

* Values shown are for the single sphere bellows.

EXPANSION COMPENSATORS

Where space does not permit a flexible route, or the use of expansion loops,rubber bellows should be considered.

RUBBER BELLOWS

Rubber bellows are able to accommodate angular, lateral and small axialmovements as shown below. Bellows should be located in adjacent pipe legsto benefit from the lateral movement. Bellows in pressure service should be‘tied’ to prevent excessive forces being applied to anchors, nozzles orstructures. Tandem bellows can be used to meet large thermal movements.

PIPE WALL STRESSING

In cases where relatively small amounts of pipe expansion occur, expansionmay be taken up by variations in pipe wall stresses. Contact Euratech forfurther detailed design procedures should this method be adopted.

PIPE SUPPORT

The basic principle of correct pipe supporting is to allow controlled axialmovement of the pipe while providing lateral restraint and adequate supportfor the pipe.

The hanger type support does not provide lateral restraint to the pipe andtherefore encourages snaking and so should be avoided except where locatedadjacent to the changes in direction where flexibility may be required.

Thus pipe supports should:

Be rigid in construction to adequately support pipe (fabricated mild steelangle being ideal).

Have a wide bearing area, to allow pipe to move easily over support.

Resist deflection, thus transferring loads to the structure.

Be free from sharp burrs or edges to avoid cutting or damaging pipewall.

Allow controlled axial movement of the pipe.

Provide lateral restraint, where required.

Pipe clips should:

Allow controlled axial pipe movement

Be free from burrs or sharp edges

Provide required lateral restraint

Clearance between the pipe and pipe clip is important.

Euratech manufactures a range of suitable pipe clips for pipe sizes up to100mm. For sizes 125mm and above fabricated mild steel clips with a radialclearance as per the following table are suitable.

PIPE SUPPORT PADS

The use of pipe support pads between pipe and support is stronglyrecommended where there is likely to be considerable movement of the pipeor chafing of the pipe from vibration. High Density polyethylene sheet 6-10mm is suitable for this purpose and should be installed as indicated in fig. 6.

Width of pipe supports must be sufficient to allow free axial movement ofthe pipe without binding.

The following table gives recommended pipe support widths.

PIPE ANCHORS

Pipe anchors should be provided in systems where thermal expansion occurs.

Anchors ensure that pipe movement occurs in a controlled and predictablemanner.

In addition, pipe anchors will absorb axial pipe pressure thrust in those systemsfitted with expansion joints.

Where possible, a flanged pipe connection may be used as an anchor pointby the use of a valve support in lieu of one of the backing rings. Refer tofig. 7.

Where suitable flange connections are not convenient, pipe anchors may beconstructed by solvent cementing split fittings to pipe as shown in fig. 8.

An alternative method for pipe diameters up to 50mm is shown in fig. 9.

Anchor points located at mid length of a straight section need not be asrobust as those associated with expansion compensators which must be ableto withstand the total pressure thrust plus frictional resistance to movement.

Note: Under no circumstances should a tightened pipe clip be used as ananchor.

The action of tightening the clip imposes a crushing load on the pipe whichmay damage the pipe and affect its structural stability.

SUPPORT OF HEAVY PIPE LINE ACCESSORIES

Valves, filters, or other heavy items should always be independently supportedor anchored to prevent undue loading and stress being applied to the pipe.Euratech valve support plates can be used in place of flange backing rings toprovide necessary support.

Equipment Connections

ABS pipe may be connected directly to pipe or other equipment using flangesor threaded connections. Flanges are the recommended method for all sizes,however threaded connections maybe used for sizes 50mm and below.

PIPE SUPPORT CENTRES

ABS is classified as a strong thermoplastic over its working temperature rangeof -40˚ to + 70˚C.

With increasing temperature pipe stiffness decreases requiring frequentsupport.

The spacing of supports shall be such that the midspan deflection does notexceed 1/200th of the span.

As a guide, horizontal support centres for Euratech ABS pipe at varioustemperatures is given in the adjacent table. For vertical pipes support centresmay be increased by 50%. For more details contact Euratech (Malaysia) Sdn.Bhd.

Pipes operating at higher temperatures, up to 70˚C, must be continuouslysupported.

COLLAPSE RESISTANCE

Critical collapse pressure (differential pressure) for above ground pipelinesmay be calculated using the following formula:

2 x E x

tP

cr=

1 – v2 D – t

where :E = Modulus, MPa

D = Outside diameter of the pipe, mm

t = Pipe wall thickness, mm

V = Poisson’s ratio, dimensionlessV = 0.35 for ABS

Note: For temperatures above 20˚C Modulus must be derated accordingly(see adjacent table). The values in the table are for long termModulus of Elasticity. The instantaneous Modulus of Elasticity forEuratech ABS is 2000 Mpa.

For buried pipelines, design for buckling should be based upon AS2566 -Buried flexible pipelines - Design.

Euratech ABS pipelines are particularly suitable for below atmosphericapplications. Contact Euratech for further advice.

PRESSURE TESTING

The recommended test pressure for ABS EURAPIPE pipe used in above groundsystems is 1.5 times the designed operating pressure of the system for amaximum of one hour, less allowance for temperature derating.

Pressure testing above these limits is not recommended as it can reduce themaximum life of the system.

Pressure testing of ABS EURAPIPE buried pipelines shall be in accordancewith AS2566 - Buried flexible pipelines.

INSTALLATIONINTRODUCTION

Euratech ABS pipe systems are easy to install. It requires minimum tradeskills and training of personnel for a successful installation.

A complete certification package comprising training manual, QualityAssurance program, on site training and certification of personnel is availablefrom Euratech.

HANDLING AND STORAGE

ABS pipes and fittings are relatively light and easily handled.

However, care must be taken during handling to prevent scoring or gougingof the pipes and fittings:

Pipes and fittings shall not be dropped, indented, crushed or impacted.

Metal slings, hooks, or chains shall not come into direct contact with thepipe surface. Fabric slings shall be used and shall be attached at twopoints on the load.

Do not sling from the middle of the pipe.

Spreader bars may be necessary to prevent slings slipping during lifts.

Care shall be taken to prevent damaging the external surfaces of pipesby rough handling or by dragging along the ground.

Pipe packs and individual pipes can be lifted by forklift or by usingslings in conjunction with a crane or other lifting device such as a backhoeor other suitable equipment.

Lengths in excess of 6 metres must be lifted from two points at least 3metres apart. This can be achieved by using a forklift with wide tynes orby using slings and spreader bar at least 3 metres long.

If mechanical lifting equipment is not available, large diameter pipesmay be rolled down planks from the transport unit. Ropes shall beemployed to control the pipes on the way down.

Smaller diameter pipes can be lifted and carried manually.

Pipes shall be stored in the packs supplied.

Packs shall be stored on level ground free from stones or projections,which could damage the pipe.

For short term, storage packs can be stacked to a height of maximum2.8 meters.

Multiple packs are not to be lifted.

For longer term storage-more than 3 months-packs shall be stacked toa height of maximum 1.8 meters.

31

Page 36: ABS Pipe Design Manual

Issue 1 Revision 1

Where pipes are to be stored individually or without being strapped inpacks, they shall be supported with 75mm wide horizontal timbersupports at 1.5m spacing.

Unpacked pipes shall not be stacked higher than 1.8m without verticalsupport.

When stacking pipes with solvent cement welded sockets fitted to oneend, alternate and stagger the pipe end to end so that the sockets donot bear upon each other.

JOINING SYSTEMS

Pipes and plain ended fittings may be joined by the following methods:

Sockets - cold solvent cement welded (SWJ)- elastomeric sealed (RRJ)

Flanges

Shoulder style coupling (e.g. Victaulic)

Threaded adaptors

Tapping saddles

Unions

Mechanical couplings (e.g. Gibaults, Straub, Wang etc.)

Elastomeric sealed sockets (RRJ)

There are two types of elastomeric sealed sockets:

- one side cold solvent cement weld type and the other side elastomericseal type (SWJ/RRJ),

- both sides elastomeric seal type (RRJ/RRJ).

Cold solvent cement welded sockets (SWJ/SWJ)

Cold solvent cement welded sockets are the quickest, most economical joiningmethod for ABS pipes and plain ended fittings and are available for all pipesizes.

Cold solvent cement welding eliminates the need for thrust blocks as thelongitudinal stress is taken in the pipe wall.

This type of joint is permanent and cannot be disassembled.

Cementing ABS to PVC

The cementing of these two dissimilar materials is not recommended.

A Rubber Ring socket or a mechanical connection such as a threadedconnection or a flange is recommended where such joints are necessary.

Branch connections

The preferred branch connection is by use of tees.

Tapping saddles, which permit branch connections to be made withoutremoving a section of the main pipe are useful where additions are requiredto an existing installation.

Contact Euratech for further details regarding the use and installation of ABStapping saddles.

Euratech ABS pipes need not to be stored under cover except when storageperiod is likely to exceed 6 months. When extended storage periods areexpected, pipes shall be covered with a light colour screening, whichallows airflow between layers.

Fittings shall be stored in the original packaging until ready for use.

Under high solar radiation, pipe should be shaded at least 24 hoursprior to joining.

Connecting ABS to other pipe systems

There are several recommended methods of connecting other pipe systemsdirectly to ABS pipe.

Elastomeric sealed sockets (RRJ sockets) Composite unions Flanges Threaded adaptors Shouldered end style couplings

COLD SOLVENT CEMENT WELDING

Correctly made joints using this technique are stronger than either pipe of fitting.

The cold solvent cement welding of ABS is a welding process and not a glueingprocess

The solvent acts by temporarily disolving the two surfaces to be welded. When theyare brought together, the two surfaces reconstitute into a single homogenous solidmass as the solvent quickly evaporates.

Sustained axial loading of pipe into the fitting is required to form a satisfactoryjoint.

The axial loading for the welding is provided by ensuring that the two parts beingwelded together have an interference fit. It is for this reason that sockets aredesigned with a taper (fig. 1)

fig. 1 Typical cold solvent cement socket design

Tools required

Coarse file or other tools suitale for chamfering the pipe. Emery paper. Felt tipped pen. Tape measure. Cutting tools e.g. pipe cutters, hack saw, fine tooth wood saw or circular

saw with tungsten tipped blade.

Clean paint brushes (natural bristles and unpainted wooden handle).

Euratech ABS solvent cement and MEK cleaner.

The recommended brush size for ease of use is shown in the following table:

Mechanical device for joining pipe sizes above 150DN e.g. hand operatedlever winch, two fabric lifting slings or two chain slings (min. 12mm linklength).

Clean, lint free rags.

Safety glasses and protective gloves.

Pipe diameter Brush sizeUp to DN 50 20 mm

DN 50 - DN 195 50 - 80 mm

DN 200 and above 100 mm

Wear safety glasses and protective gloves at all times when using ABScement and MEK cleaner.

Safety precautions

The following requirements are in addition to any government safetylegislation or established company work practices:

Read safety precautions on ABS cement and MEK cleaner tins.

Work area must be well ventilated.

As cement and cleaner are flammable liquids ensure work area is clearof falling sparks or other sources of ignition e.g. smoking.

COLD SOLVENT CEMENT WELDING PROCEDURE

Preparation

Prepare and inspect the pipe.

Scratches, gouges or dents shall be less than 10% of the pipe wallthickness.

Joining surfaces must be clean and free from water, dirt, oils, or anyforeign matter to ensure a good weld.

The ends of the pipes shall be cut square and chamfered and all burrsshall be removed.

Dry fit the joint without forcing the pipe into the socket (fig. 1). If thepipe cannot be entered into the socket or does not bind up beforereaching the end of the socket, do not continue with the joint.

Refer to the Training and Accreditation Program for Installation of ABSPipelines. Alternatively, contact Euratech for further information.

Add Witness Marks (fig. 2) at distance from the end of the pipe equalto:

• the socket depth, first witness mark• the socket depth plus 100 mm, second witness mark

For pipe sizes 150 DN and above, set up mechanical joining device toensure sufficient axial load is exerted to the joint (fig. 3)

Abrade and clean joining surface of the pipe (fig. 4), no further thanthe first witness mark, using emery paper. This will help absorption ofMEK into the wall.

Abrade and clean the inside surface of the socket (fig. 5) using emerypaper. This will help absorption of MEK into the wall.

Issue 1 Revision 1

Wipe over the surfaces with a clean dry rag to remove any dust (fig. 6)

Immediately before joining, thoroughly wipe the abraded surfaces witha clean rag moistened with MEK to initiate the chemical reaction (fig. 7)

JOINING

Stir solvent cement before use.

Using a clean brush, apply solvent cement to the pipe (fig. 8) and thesocket (fig. 9).

Brush strokes should be firm and alternatively circumferential andlongitudinal, finishing with continuous longitudinal strokes to redistributeany excess from the socket root and end of the pipe.

For sizes under Ø150mm only one person is required for the weldingprocess. Apply one coat to the pipe surface first, then one coat to thesocket and then apply a second coat to the pipe (when required-seetable below).

For larger sizes, Ø200mm and above, two people are required for thisprocess. One person is applying solvent cement to the pipe - two coats,see table below - while, simultaneously, another person is applyingsolvent cement to the socket (fig. 10)

Excess solvent cement can adversely effect the joint.

⊗ Do not apply solvent cement onto the pipe over the firstwitness mark.

⊗ Do not pour the solvent cement onto the pipe or allow puddlesto form.

Without delay, push the pipe in a smooth even motion, until the end ofthe socket reaches the first witness mark (fig. 11).

Ensure that the joining process is completed as quick as possible, whilethe solvent cement surface is still wet.

⊗ Do not attempt to make the joint if the solvent cement hasdried.

The second witness mark shall be 100 mm from the end of the socket.

Excess solvent cement must be removed

⊗ Do not use MEK to clean up excess solvent cement.

Continue to exert axial load until the joint sets. As the sockets are taperedthe pipe will initially try to slide out of the socket.

See the following table.

Wipe thoroughly excess solvent cement from all around the socket mouthand, where possible, from inside of the joint.

Replace the lids on solvent cement and MEK cleaner.

Clean brushes in MEK.

Where joining is to continue, brushes can be stored in a covered tin ofMEK cleaner to prevent hardening. Always ensure excess MEK cleaner isremoved from brushes before using with solvent cement.

⊗ Do not disturb joints for 30 minutes after joining.

Important notes on cold solvent cement welding

Work in a well ventilated area clear of hazards.

Use only Euratech ABS solvent cement and MEK cleaner.

⊗ UPVC solvent cement and primer are not suitable for use withEuratech ABS pipe and fittings.

Treat ABS cement and MEK cleaner with care, as they are volatileflammable liquids. Replace lids tightly after use.

An indication of the number of joints likely to be made with EuratechABS Solvent cement when following the recommended procedure is asfollows:

The usage of MEK is approximately 50% that of ABS cement

ABS cement shall be stirred before use.

If solvent cement becomes thickened through evaporation of solventsor becomes contaminated dispose cement safely and use a fresh tin.

⊗ Do not thin cement with MEK.

Ensure there is no contamination to the solvent cement joint from dirt,dust, and oil.

Solvent cement may be removed from your hands with soap and wateror industrial hand cleaning soaps.

The key to fast efficient joining, particularly with large pipe diametersis preparation.

Solvent cement joining must be completed as quickly as practicable,typically within 2 minutes of applying the first coat of cement.

Pipe and socket must be dry for effective joining.

Use only clean cotton rags and clean brushes.

Check alignment of fittings before making the joint.

37

Page 42: ABS Pipe Design Manual

Issue 1 Revision 1

When using a lever winch, have everything ready before applying solventcement.

When installing fittings, ensure that winching operations do not bear onbranches of tees.

A canopy over the joining area is desirable when working in full sun.

In hot conditions shading of joining areas of pipe for a minimum of 1hour before joining will enable easier joining.

In hot or wet conditions a canopy over the joining area to prevent directsunlight or precipitation on the joining process will enable easier joining.Ensure adequate ventilation.

Where a lever winch is used, leave it connected applying the axial loaduntil the joint sets.

It is good practice to leave the tension on the winch until it is needed forthe next joint (fig. 14).

⊗ Full rated pressure shall not be applied for 24 hours afterjoining.

⊗ Test pressures above working pressure shall not be appliedfor 48 hours after joining.

INSTALLATION OF BOLT ON SADDLES

Assemble clean elastomeric seal carefully into band, making sure nodirt is in the tapping band groove. Extra care must be taken when fittingcurved E-lips.

Match any positioning lug into the mating notch in the band groove toensure they are aligned correctly.

Position band on a clean section of pipe, tighten bolts until band is secure.Over tightening is not necessary and could cause the stainless steel nutsto gall.

Tap the pipe trough the band being careful not to damage the band orforce swarf under the seal. It is good practice to mark the pipe so that ifthe band is removed it may be replaced exactly and centrally over thetapped hole.

The take-off branch is a plain socket. Reduced or threaded branchconfigurations may be formed by using the appropriate Euratech fitting.

Ensure that all take-off pipes are aligned and free to flex with expansionto avoid undue stress on the saddle.

Ensure that any instrument connected by this method is independentlysupported and not presenting any concentrated load to the main pipe.

FLANGED JOINTS

Eurapipe manufactures two styles of flanged joining systems.

Full face flanges, available in sizes 15mm to 150mm.

Stub flanges, available in sizes DN 50 to DN 750.

Stub flanges are the preferred style as they offer a more economical fittingand are easier to install than the full face style. Stub flange assemblies havethe same pressure rating as full face flanges assemblies.

Backing rings must be used with both full face and stub flanges and areavailable in all standard drilling configurations.

Gaskets must be used with flanges.

ABS stub flange and full face flange assemblies may be bolted directly toother flanged pipe systems of the same flange drilling i.e. ANSI 150, AS2129 etc.

Flange bolt torque values for ABS pipes will not be as high as those commonlyused on steel pipe systems.

The following recommended torque values are suitable for the maximumpressure rating of ABS pipe systems. Higher torque values may result indistortion of the flange face.

Standard butterfly valves may be placed between ABS stub flange or fullface flange assemblies without modification. Valves should be checked forfull and free movement prior to final tightening of flange bolts. Care needsto be exercised as the valve disc may interfere with the bore of the pipe.Spacers or special stub flanges can be provided.

THREADED CONNECTIONS

Euratech manufactures a range of threaded fittings up to 100DN (4,,).

All threaded fittings are rated 1200kPa at 20˚C.

For high-pressure installations it is preferable to use adaptors or fittings withmale ABS threads in preference to female ABS threaded fittings.

Composite unions, available in male and female threaded configurations to50DN are recommended for joining ABS pipe to metal threads particularly insystems subject to thermal cycling.

Tightening shall only be done by hand with a maximum of an extra quarterturn with a pipe wrench. There is often a tendency to over-tighten threadshowever this only causes distortion and leaks.

If a threaded connection is leaking disassemble the thread and if not damagedremake the connection taking care not to over-tighten.

PTFE tape is the recommended thread sealant.

⊗ Do not use liquid thread sealants, e.g. Loctite or PTFE paste,as they contain chemicals which may attack plastic materials.

BURIED PIPELINES

Trench preparation

Trenches shall be excavated in accordance with AS2566 - Buried flexiblepipelines - Installation and the specified design and relevant installation codes.

The bottom of the trench shall be even and stable and prepared in accordancewith the prescribed pipeline gradient and depth.

A bedding layer of a minimum thickness as determined by the code shall belaid in the bottom of the trench.

Ensure that the bedding is free from hard objects or sharp projections.

The bedding shall be graded to continuously support the pipe.

The bedding shall be compacted according to the required specifications.

Where the joining fitting will lay on the trench bottom, scallop out a bell holein the bedding. The bell hole shall be twice the length of the socket joiner toallow sufficient room for joining.

After joining, the bell hole shall be filled and compacted.

Ensure that after joining has been completed joining sockets are neitherunsupported nor on points of concentrated load.

Pre-assembly of cold solvent cement welded pipes and laying

Joining above ground and “snaking” into the trench is suitable for solventcement welded pipes in sizes up to 200DN.

With this method, the pipes are joined together in a continuous length ofseveral hundred metres alongside the trench.

Care must be taken not to strain the pipe or pipe joints.

If this method is to be considered, refer to Euratech.

Joining in trench

This method is appropriate for all joining methods and for all sizes of pipe.

The pipes shall be laid in the trench so that the socketed end of the pipe isfacing in the direction of laying.

The next pipe is then placed in the trench and inserted into the socket.

Pipes can be supplied with one joining socket fitted to one end and the otherend chamfered. Where this is not the case, or the pipe is cut to a specificlength, a chamfer shall be formed (see procedure for cutting) and a socketshall be welded to one end of the pipe above ground before laying in trench.

Where it is necessary to fit a joining socket to a pipe in a trench, the trenchwill need to have sufficient room around the end of the pipe to performjoining.

When solvent cement welding in trenches, ensure that any spillage of solventcement or MEK is completely removed immediately.

Thrust blocks

Thrust blocks are not required for solvent cement jointed buried pipelines atchanges of direction, terminations, changes in pipe diameter or tees.

Thrust blocks may be required where elastomeric seal joints, valves or otherequipment is positioned in the pipeline and are not independently supported.

Issue 1 Revision 1

Backfilling and Tamping

Backfilling and compaction of embedment material, overlay and backfill shallbe in accordance with AS 2566.

REPAIR OF DAMAGED PIPES

Above ground

For above ground repairs, the recommended method is to remove thedamaged section of pipe and replace with a new section.

Sockets, flanges, socket unions, or shoulder style joints are all suitablemethods to rejoin the pipe. Metal couplings are also suitable where pipe hasadequate restraint against axial thrust.

Below ground

Where damage to the pipe is minimal (less than 25 - 30% of circumferenceof pipe) a repair saddle may be used. These are available from Euratech. Atemporary repair may be quickly prepared on site from a sectioned ABSsocket with the centre stop removed. A repair saddle properly fitted will restorethe pipe to its maximum rated working pressure.

Where the damage is more extensive, the damaged section of pipe must bereplaced. The joining method may be selected from the following table.

Rubber ring coupling repair procedure

Preparation and removing the damaged section

Note: All dimensions in this section are for pipe DN 500. The repair kits,which are available for all sizes, contain detailed method and procedure.Please contact Euratech for other sizes.

The length of the trench should be extended by 2 metres at each end fromwhere the damaged section is to be removed; this is to allow sufficient pipelength for attaching the ABS RRJ slip couplings and Thrust Restraint Collars(if needed).

Cut out the damaged section using the tungsten tipped circular saw.

It will be necessary to remove a minimum pipe length of 1200 mm to effectthe correct installation of the ABS RRJ slip coupling.

Inspect the existing pipe for surface defects, which may affect performanceof the rubber rings. Ensure the pipe is free of any dirt and debris and cleanthe surface using rags dampened with water. Do not use the MEK cleaner.

The following chamfers need to be applied (approximate only):- On the existing pipe, a chamfer of 15˚ x 15mm back along the pipe.

- On the new section, a chamfer of 15˚ x 30mm back along the pipe.

Measure the old section of pipe that has been removed and cut the newsection to be installed 100 mm shorter, this is to ensure there is no interferenceof the new and existing pipe sections and for ease of installation.

Positioning the new pipe section

Apply a thin film of the RRJ lubricant to the inside surface of the ABS RRJ slipcoupling rings and to the outside surface of each end of the replacementpipe for a distance of 400mm.

Fit ABS RRJ slip couplings to each end and using a mechanical device (come-a-long etc) slide to the length of the coupling, as shown on the followingdrawing, (a).

Position the new section of pipe in the trench, using the marking pen place awitness mark 200mm back from the ends of the existing pipe and applylubricant to chamfer and pipe ends.

Slide the slip-couplings over the existing pipe ends back to these marks asshown on the following drawing, (b).

Important

If needed, a detailed procedure of installing Thrust Restraint Collars is providedwith the repair kit. The Thrust Restraint Collars require a minimum curingtime before recommissioning the line. Contact Euratech for the recommendedtime required for each application.

Repairs made with repair sockets or metal couplings may be returned toservice immediately.

Repairs made using shoulder ends may be returned to service immediatelyfor gravity lines, or after the recommended solvent cement drying time forpressure lines.

After pressure testing, backfill excavation ensuring pipe is suitably beddedand tamped.

ABOVE GROUND PIPELINES

Euratech ABS pipe is particularly suitable for installation as an above groundline. Typical examples are in tailings disposal or de-water applications. ContactEuratech for information.

HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE TESTING

The test procedure outlined in AS2566 should be followed where installationsmust be pressure tested. Alternatively, the following procedure may beemployed.

Note: Testing must not be carried out until the following times have elapsedsince completion of the last joint:

Sizes DN 15 - DN200 24 hours

Sizes OD225 - OD355 36 hours

Sizes OD400 - OD630 48 hours

For large installations split the system into sections for testing.

Fill section with clean ambient temperature water (20˚C is ideal). Donot pressurise.

Ensure no air is trapped in the system.

Inspect system for gas leaks.

Allow the system to stand for one hour to allow temperature to stabiliseand an equilibrium reached.

If there are no leaks remove any remaining air and increase pressure to300kPa. Leave at this pressure for 15 minutes and inspect for leaks.

If pressure remains constant, increase pressure to recommended testpressure. Leave pressurised for a period not exceeding one hour. Duringthis time pressure should hold almost constant.

Recommended test pressure is 1.5 times the operating pressure, less theallowance for temperature/pressure derating at the current test temperatureand maximum static head.

Note: If extended times are required to achieve the test pressure eitherleakage is occurring or there is air trapped in the system. Inspectfor leakage and if none apparent, reduce the pressure and checkfor trapped air which must be removed before the test cancontinue.

CAUTION: Under no circumstances should pressure tests be carried out usinghigh pressure gas. Water is the preferred pressurizing medium.If air is used, a maximum pressure of 7kPa should not beexceeded.

When testing above ground lines, the Poisson’s effect may reduce the lengthof line. This may impose excessive loads on bulk heads or equipment greaterthan the design.

It is recommended that final closures are made after the hydrotest and in-service test.
