given pipe size, frictions losses are to be calculated. B : SLUICE VALVE D : NON RETURN VALVE
This resistance is termed pipe friction and is usually measured in feet or metres head of the fluid which is why it is also
refered to as the head loss due to pipe friction.
Overall head loss in a pipe is affected by a number of factors which include the viscosity of the fluid, the size of the internal
pipe diameter, the internal roughness of the inner surface of the pipe, the change in elevation between the ends of the
pipe and the length of the pipe along which the fluid travels.
Following Hazen Williams formula should be used for friction loss calculation.

SELECTION OF PRESSURE CLASS
For the selection of pressure class of a pipeline, total head acting on the pipe at that particular point is calculated as under:
Total Head = Frictional head + Static head + 10% sum of frictional head & static head
The total head, pipe pressure class, can be selected as per the table below:
* as per thumb rule, considered 0.1 MPa = 100 meters of water column
PUMP SELECTION
The pump can be selected by using the formula:
It is recommended to recheck the pressure class of the pipe by recalculating the selection of the pump.
WATER HAMMER
Whenever the flow rate of fluid in a pipe changes, there is a surge in pressure known as the Water Hammer. The longer the
line and the faster the fluid moves, the greater the hydraulic shock will be. Water Hammer may be caused by opening or
closing of a valve, starting or stopping a pump or by the movement of entrapped air through the pipe. Generally for design
calculations, water hammer pressure is to be neglected considering high modulus of elasticity of PVC material.
40
AIR VALVE SELECTION AND
INSTALLATION
Though there is correct calculation of pipe size and pressure class selection, air valve selection and proper installation is
most important for proper functioning.
The combined use of air and water is very harmful to PVC pipes. The air tends to accumulate in the pipeline if air valves are
not functioning due to its compressible nature. This is caused by a transient change in the localised velocity which leads to
the generation of high localised pressure which can not be detected on a conventional gauge. To avoid this, good quality air
valves should be installed. Air valves are available in Single acting and double acting types.
2. The size and the location of the air valves should be decided by consulting an engineer.
3. The size of the air valve should be from ¼ th to 1⁄6 th of the diameter of the pipe for a smooth admission as well as
the release of air.
6. Air valves are also required at places where direction or velocity of flow changes.
7. Given below are the elevation diagrams indicating the use of air valves.

TRENCH PREPARATION
The following trenching and burial procedures should be used to protect the system:
1. The trench should be excavated to ensure that the sides remain stable under all working conditions.
a. The trench should be wide enough to provide an adequate room. The space between the pipe and trench wall must be wider
than the compaction equipment used in the compaction of the backfill. Minimum trench width should be 350-400 mm over
the pipe diameter. Minimum trench height depends on pipe dia. and min. cover requirement. Optimally, pipe diameter plus 1
metre require.
2. The trench bottom should be smooth, free of rocks and debris, continuous and provide uniform support. If ledge rock, hardpan
or large boulders are encountered, the trench bottom should be padded with the bedding of compacted granular material to
a thickness of at least 4 inches. Foundation bedding should be installed as required by the engineer.
3. A smooth trench bottom is necessary to support the pipe over its entire length on firm stable material. Blocking should not be
used to change pipe gradient or to intermittently support pipe over low sections in the trench.
uPVC pipes and fittings can be installed underground. Since these Piping systems are flexible systems, proper attention should
be given to burial conditions. The stiffness of the piping system is affected by sidewall support, soil compaction, and the condition
of the trench. Trench bottoms should be smooth and regular in either Undisturbed soil or a layer of compacted
backfill. The pipe must lie evenly on this surface throughout the entire length of its barrel.

TESTING PRESSURE
SYSTEM
• Before testing, the safety precautions should be instituted to protect personnel and property in case of failure. Also
system shall be visually inspected to ensure correct installation procedure has been followed including for fittings, valves
& accessories/appliances.
• Solvent cement jointed pipelines to be tested at least after 24 hrs after last solvent cement joint has been made.
• Conduct pressure testing with water. Do not use air or other gases for pressure testing.
• The piping system should be adequately anchored to limit movement. Water under pressure exerts thrust forces in piping
systems. Thrust blocking should be provided at changes of direction, change in size and at dead ends.
• The piping systems should be slowly filled with water, taking care to prevent surge and air entrapment. The flow velocity
should not exceed 5 feet per second.
• All trapped air must be slowly released. Vents must be provided at all high points of the piping system. All valves and air
relief mechanisms should be opened so that the air can be vented while the system is extremely dangerous and it must
be slowly and completely vented before testing. The piping system can be pressurised to 150% of its designed working
pressure. However, ensure that the pressure does not exceed the working pressure of the lowest-rated component in the
system (valves, unions, flanges, threaded parts, etc.)
• The pressure test should not exceed one hour. Any leaking joints or pipes must be cut out and replaced, while the line
recharged and retested using the same procedure.

HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
HANDLING
The pipe should be handled with reasonable care. Because thermoplastic pipe is much lighter in weight than metal pipe.
There is sometimes a tendency to throw it around. This should be avoided.
The pipe should never be dragged or pushed from a truck bed. Pallets for pipe should be removed with a fork lift. Loose
pipe can be rolled down timbers, as long as the pieces do not fall on each other or on any hard or uneven surface. In all
cases, severe contact with any sharp objects (rocks, iron angles, forks on forklifts, etc.) should be avoided.
STORAGE
If possible, pipe should be stored inside. When this is not possible, the pipe should be stored on level ground which is dry
and free from sharp objects. If different schedules of pipes are stacked together, the pipe with the thickest walls should be
at the bottom.
The pipe should be protected from the sun and be in an area with proper ventilation. This will lessen the effects of
ultraviolet rays and help prevent heat built-up.
If the pipe is stored in racks, it should be continuously supported along its length. If this is not possible, the spacing of the
supports should not exceed three feet (3’).
When storage temperatures are below 0°C (32°F), extra care should be taken when handling the pipe. This will help
prevent any problem which could be caused by the slightly lower impact strength of uPVC pipe at temperature below
freezing.

DO’S & DON'TS
DO’S
1. Install product according to Astral’s Installation instructions manual and follow recommended safe work practices.
2. Keep Pipe and fittings in original packaging until needed and store pipes in covered areas.
3. Use tools designed for use with plastic pipe and fittings.
4. Cut-off minimum 25 mm beyond the edge of the crack in case any crack is discovered on the pipe.
5. Pipe may be cut quickly and efficiently by several methods. Wheel – type plastic tubing cutters are preferred. Ratchet type
cutters or fine tooth saws are another option. However, when using the ratchet cutter, be certain to score the exterior
wall by rotating the cutter blade in a circular motion around the pipe. Do this before applying significant downward
pressure to finalise the cut. This step leads to a square cut. In addition, make sure ratchet cutter blades are sharp. Cutting
pipe as squarely as possible provides optimal bonding area within a joint.
6. Burrs and filings can prevent proper contact between the tube and fittings during assembly and should be removed from
the outside and inside of the pipe. A chamfering tool is preferred, but a pocket knife or file is also suitable for this purpose.
7. Use only uPVC solvent cement PVC 100 & uPVC 717 otherwise it may result in joint failure.
8. Always conduct hydraulic pressure testing after installation to detect any leaks and faults. Wait for appropriate cure time
before pressure testing. Fill lines slowly and remove air from the system prior to pressure testing.
9. Rotate the pipe ¼ to ½ turn to spread the uPVC solvent cement evenly in the joint while pushing the pipe into Fitting.
10. Use Teflon tapes with threaded fittings.
11. Ensure that there are no sharp edges in contact with the pipes while embedding the pipes on the walls or in the floors.
12. Visually inspect all joints for proper cementing at the end of shift or day. A visual inspection of the complete system is also
recommended during pressure testing.
DON'TS
1. Do not use Metal Hooks or Nails to support/ hold or put pressure on the pipes. Do not use straps & hangers with rough or
sharp edges. Do not tighten the straps over the pipes.
2. Never expose the pipe to open flame while trying to bend it.
3. Do not drop pipes on edges from heights. Do not drop heavy objects on pipes or walk on pipes.
4. Do not dilute Solvent Cement with thinner/ MTO or any other liquid etc.
5. Do not use any other petroleum or solvent – based sealant, adhesive, lubricant or fire hazard material on uPVC pipes and
fittings.
