Product catalog summary
General Introduction
ACO Building Drainage offers a range of stainless steel drainage solutions, including the ACO PIPE® system, which is a lightweight, durable, and reliable push-fit pipework system. It is suitable for various drainage applications and serves as a modern alternative to PVC-u and cast iron systems.
Product Benefits
The ACO PIPE® system is easy to install, highly corrosion-resistant, lightweight, and features a double-sealed jointing system. It requires no painting and is available in an electro-polished option for enhanced aesthetics.
Typical Applications
Ideal for use in food processing plants, commercial and industrial buildings, hotels, kitchens, leisure centers, hospitals, laboratories, schools, and abattoirs.
Material Information
Manufactured from austenitic stainless steel grades 304 and 316, with EPDM seals as standard and Viton® seals available for aggressive chemical applications.
Push-fit Connection
Designed for easy assembly, providing a watertight connection suitable for both vacuum and gravity piping systems. It is non-combustible and certified for fire resistance.
Characteristics and System Overview
Available in various diameters and lengths, offering a complete building drainage solution with over 1,500 different types of fittings.
Product Ranges
Includes socketed pipes, bends, branches, couplings, and more, compliant with BS EN 1124 standards, with EPDM and Viton® seals.
Specifications
Detailed specifications include dimensions, weights, and part numbers for various components such as socket clamps, reduction sealing sets, and support brackets. EPDM and Viton® seals are color-coded for easy identification.
Procedures
Installation guidelines emphasize proper pipe cutting, jointing, and support. Pipes should be cut square, clean, and free from burrs, with proper support and spacing.
Standards and Norms
References standards such as BS EN 12056 and BS EN 752 for gravity drainage systems, advising adherence to these standards and manufacturer recommendations.
Recommendations
Socket clamps can be used for increased reliability under higher pressure conditions. ACO's bespoke design services are recommended for custom solutions.
Flow Rates and Operating Pressure
Flow rates are calculated using the Colebrook-White formula, with tables provided for different pipe diameters and gradients.
Installation Guide
Covers pipe jointing, seal integrity, and below-ground installation, stressing careful handling and proper backfilling and compaction.
Specifications and Standards
Emphasizes compliance with BS EN 12056:2000 and The Building Regulations 2010 Part H, with specific installation requirements.
Socket Clamps and Installation
Push-fit socket joints require proper fixing to prevent separation under pressure, with socket clamps recommended when fixing to the building is not feasible.
Material Information
Stainless steel with a low coefficient of thermal expansion, with wall thickness varying by diameter.
Seal Material Information
Double lip seals made from EPDM or Viton®, each with distinct properties and limitations.
Care and Maintenance
Regular cleaning is required to maintain appearance, with guidelines provided for dealing with stains and contaminants.
Material Resistance Chart
Includes a chart detailing the resistance of different materials to various chemicals at 20°C.
Conclusion
Emphasizes the importance of following cleaning and maintenance guidelines to ensure longevity and performance, with contact information for further assistance.
