PEX pipe, also known as cross-linked polyethylene pipe, is made of polyethylene material. The linear molecular structure of polyethylene is transformed into a three-dimensional network structure through physical and chemical methods, thereby improving the performance of polyethylene.
Application field:
1. Indoor water supply pipes, hot water pipes, and pure water delivery pipes.
2. Liquid food pipelines in the food industry.
3. Plumbing and heating systems, central air-conditioning piping systems, ground radiant heating systems, solar water heater systems, etc.
4. Piping for telecommunications and electricity.
5. Pipeline systems for electroplating, petroleum, and chemical plants.
Pipeline layout and laying:
(1) First of all, the location and direction of the piping should be determined according to the structure and process layout requirements of the building.
(2) The pipeline should be laid in the ceiling, pipe hole, pipe well or embedded in the wall.
(3) When the pipeline is laid in the overhead floor or in the integral pouring layer of the floor, it is advisable to install a protective rigid PVC corrugated pipe.
(4) When the pipeline passes through the slab roof, fixed support points should be set at the crossing position, and strict waterproof measures should be adopted. When passing through walls, beams, and columns, casing pipes should be installed.
(5) The pipeline should not pass through the settlement joints and expansion joints of the building. When it has to pass, anti-settlement and expansion measures should be provided at the crossing position.
(6) When outdoor pipelines pass through the concrete wall of the foundation basement, anti-settling measures should be taken.
(7) If the pipeline passes through the water tank of the pool, the pipe section between the inlet and outlet pipes and the valve shall be made of corrosion-resistant metal pipes.
