Specifications
Lists multiple types of pipe fittings with dimensions, material specifications, and compliance with standards such as BS EN 12056.

Procedures
Installation guidelines emphasize using pipe brackets at maximum intervals of 3 meters for both vertical and horizontal pipework.

Standards and Compliance
Highlights compliance with BS EN 12056 for gravity drainage systems and specifies the use of stainless steel grade AISI 316L for certain applications.

Recommendations
Advises on the use of joint clamps and pressure peak clamps to withstand internal pressures and prevent movement.

Key Data from Tables
Tables provide detailed measurements for each pipe type, including diameter, length, and pressure ratings.

Installation Best Practices
Advises placing brackets under ring seal sockets and using additional support at changes of direction.

Installation Guidelines
Outlines the necessity of anchoring installations at bends and branches to prevent movement.

Pipe Brackets Specifications
Stainless steel pipe brackets are specified with a 2mm thickness and an EPDM insulating liner.

Connection to Other Materials
The system can connect to other pipe materials using adaptors, with specific type numbers and dimensions provided.

Flow Tables and Pipe Sizing
Includes flow tables based on the Colebrook-White equation, providing velocity and discharge values for different pipe diameters.

Chemical Resistance
A chemical resistance table indicates the suitability of various materials against different chemicals.

Chemical Resistance and Rubber Types
Provides a detailed chemical resistance table for various substances, indicating compatibility with different rubber types.

Installation Procedures
Outlines procedures for below-ground and above-ground installations, emphasizing proper filling and compression around pipes.

Testing and Leakage
Describes testing procedures for sanitation and leakage, referencing BS EN 12056 standards.

Handling and Storage
Guidelines for transport, unloading, and storage of pipes and fittings to prevent damage.

Technical Data
Includes dimensions, cutting instructions, and jointing procedures, highlighting the lightweight nature of stainless steel pipes.

Environmental Considerations
Emphasizes the recyclability of stainless steel and mentions prefabrication service and earth continuity certification.

Resistance Measurements
Resistance measurements are conducted with pipe fittings both pushed together and pulled apart by 4 mm.

Testing
Testing should comply with BS EN 12056 for sanitary pipework or BS EN 752 for building drainage.

Expansion
Stainless steel has a low coefficient of expansion, requiring allowances when pipes carry hot waste water.

Availability
Most items are available from the National Distribution Centre in Tadcaster or regional distributors.

Fire Resistance
The system is fire-resistant and non-combustible, meeting Building Regulations requirements.

Chemical Resistance
Austenitic Stainless Steels are highly resistant to chemicals and elevated temperatures.

Strength
Pipes and fittings are designed to withstand normal service conditions but should be protected from heavy vehicle impacts.

Technical Data and Approvals
Complies with EN 1124 standards, covering requirements, tests, and quality controls.

Negative Pressure Rating
Suitable for syphonic rainwater schemes and vacuum drainage applications.

Company Information
BLÜCHER® employs over 300 people, generating an annual turnover of over 50 million euros, providing high-quality stainless steel drainage solutions globally.
