Introduction :
|
|
| |
 |
| |
HDPE Pipes have been used for piping system in various industries
primarily because of its excellent resistance to cursive chemicals,
its inherent toughness and ease of installation. HDPE pipe is
definitely not substitute for conventional pipes but it is actually
superior type product for many applications. The superiority of HDPE
pipes are especially proven in the following properties |
|
 |
|
|
| |
| |
> |
Economical than traditional pipe material. |
| |
> |
Resistance to chemicals-exceptional resistance to all external and internal cormorants. |
| |
> |
Resistance to electrolytic corrosion. |
| |
> |
Will not rush or rot. |
| |
|
Welded joints speed installation. Trench widths can be reduced which leads to saving in the cost of excavation and back filling. |
| |
|
Light
Weight - One sixth of the weight of steel. Low specific gravity giving
an outstanding light weight product for easy transportation, handling,
fitting etc. |
| |
> |
Very good thermal insulation due to low thermal conductivity. |
| |
> |
Smooth
bore provides less head loss. Flow resistance is approximately 30% less
than that of conventional pipes, permitting the use of a smaller bore
pipe for a given rate of flow. |
| |
> |
Perfect stability for material obviates the risk of ageing. |
| |
> |
Total neutrality of products conveyed. |
| |
> |
Flame resistance classifying the materials as self extinguishing, according to test standard employed. |
| |
> |
Low maintenance cost. |
| |
> |
Easy to install. |
| |
> |
Longer Life tahn G.I., M.S. Cement & Other Pipes. |

Flexible : |
|
| |
 |
 |
|
DutronTM pipes have a high flexural impact strength which enable them to
withstand momentary, higher pressure (caused by water hammer, etc..)
than their rated capacity. The flexibility of the pipes also enables
them to be laid without leveling trenches since they can. |
| |
|
|
| Durable : |
 |
| DutronTM pipes manufactured as per IS:4984:95 are designed for a working life of
50 years at 27oC and the rated pressure. They are designed for a stress
of 50 kgf/cm2 which with a safety factor of 1.3, permits a working
stress of 39.5 kgf/cm2. The pipe grade HDPE used includes ultraviolet
absorbers, antitoxins and additives to prevent the degradation of the
pipe due to weather. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Power - Saving : |
|
| |
 |
| Encrustation is
virtually nil in Jyoti pipes resulting in tremendous energy savings, since
pumping cost remains the same throughout the operating span. The smoother
flow results in shorter pumping times with resultant savings in
electricity. It also enables a smaller dia pipe to be selected for the
same flow, compared to metal pipes. |
|
 |
| |
|
|
| Corposion - Resistant : |
 |
| DutronTM pipes are
non-corrosive and are impervious to any aggressive soil or water
conditions. Their paraffin structure gives them a high degree of
resistance to chemical attack; consequently they are insoluble in
practically all chemicals at room temperatures, making them the ideal
choice for chemical industries. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Easy Tranportability : |
|
| |
 |
 |
|
DutronTM pipes can be extruded in any continuous length. Pipes of smaller
diameters can be coiled by the kilometer while larger diameter pipes
can be cut into lengths of the most economic transportable size, to be
butt welded together at the installation site. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Smooth : |
|
| |
 |
| DutronTM pipes have a smooth outer and inner surface. the coefficient of friction
(C factor) of 150 as per Hazen Williems formula is constant throughout
the life of the pipe as compared to a 'C' factor of 100 for metallic
pipes. |
|
 |
| |
|
|
| Abrasion - Resistant : |
 |
| The
results obtained in foreign countries from many different test have
shown that HDPE pipes may be included in the category of
abrasion-resistant materials. |

| Domestic Gas Distributions : |
 |
Earlier,
with the introduction of HDPE pipes, engineers always carried a
psychological fear to use HDPE pipes or rather plastic pipes for
conveyance of inflammable gases. However, experiments and extensive
trials proved these fears totally unfounded and established excellence
of performance of HDPE pipes for conveyance of all combustible gases.
Experiments have also proved that the permeability losses are
insignificant in regard to safety and environmental impact.
Now a days, DutronTM pipes are widely and effectively used for carrying natural gas, coal gas, biogas, etc. |
|
| |
|
| Submarine Pipelines : |
 |
| One of the most important applications where all salient features of DutronTM pipes prominently figure out is for underwater pipelines. DutronTM pipes have been successfully laid for underwater river crossings, creek
crossings, marine outfalls and for brine intake lines in the open sea.
Hazardous chemical effluents and radioactive wastes are being
harmlessly disposed into deep sea through DutronTM pipes with substantial cost savings. Schemes which would have been
dropped due to economical unavailability have been made feasible with DutronTM pipes. |
|
 |
|
| |
|
|
| |
| Agriculture : |
 |
 |
|
DutronTM pipes are successfully meeting increasing demand from the agriculturist
for flow, lift, sprikler and drip irrigation. Apart from ease of
operation, conservation of energy is a vital factor. Low-cost and
highly efficient DutronTM sprinkler system has been accepted by farmers for higher yields. DutronTM pipes have been used for many lift irrigation schemes with the benefit of one additional crop.
Farmers use DutronTM pipes for suction and delivery lines on their pupmpsets to save energy and to get better pump efficiency. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
| Potable Water Supply : |
 |
DutronTM pipes are an instant choice for water supply specialists, in rural and
urban water supply schemes because of quik-n-speedy execution and
maintenance free services. Schemes with DutronTM pipes have almost double the life compared to schemes with conventional
pipes which is an additional characteristic for making decision.
DutronTM pipes only have made water supply schemes feasible in sub-zero
temparatures at high attitudes of 1000-4000 mtrs as any other pipe
would rupture frequently due to freezing of water. Elastic DutronTM pipes would expand comfortably and easily as the water swells whil
freezing wihout stress-cracking and would resume normal bore when it
melts regardless of the frequency of climate reaching freezing
temparatures. Drought relief pipelines or dewatering schemes for
flood-relief can be laid quickly using DutronTM pipes. |
