Traditional product PVC has a maximum operating temperature around 60 °C (140 °F) when heat distortion begins to occur. [35] As a thermoplastic, PVC has an inherent insulation that aids in reducing condensation formation and resisting internal temperature changes for hot and cold liquids. [35]
An operating temperature is the allowable temperature range of the local ambient environment at which an electrical or mechanical device operates. The device will operate effectively within a specified temperature range which varies based on the device function and application context, and ranges from the minimum operating temperature to the maximum operating temperature (or peak operating ...
ISO 2056:1976 Moulded polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes and fittings — Determination of Vicat softening temperature [Withdrawn: replaced with ISO 2507, now ISO 2507-(1-2)] ISO 2057:1981 Agricultural tractors — Remote control hydraulic cylinders for trailed implements
Max operating temperature is reported at 140 °F (60 °C), and max working pressure: 450 psi (3,100 kPa). Due to its long-term strength characteristics, high stiffness and cost effectiveness, uPVC systems account for a large proportion of plastic piping installations and some estimations put it that greater than 2,000,000 miles (3,200,000 km ...
CPVC can withstand corrosive water at temperatures greater than PVC, typically greater by 40–50 °C (greater by 72–90 °F), contributing to its popularity as a material for water-piping systems in residential and commercial construction. CPVC maximal operating temperature peaks at 200 °F (93 °C).
Its operating temperature range is -50 to 200 °C [citation needed] PTFE (fluoropolymer) tubes have a wide operating temperature range (-55 to 175 °C), a low coefficient of friction, and high resistance to chemicals and punctures. [7] Viton, another fluoropolymer with high chemical resistance, is widely used in hydraulic equipment. It is ...
Heat generated by the element then maintains the temperature of the pipe. Trace heating may be used to protect pipes from freezing, to maintain a constant flow temperature in hot water systems, or to maintain process temperatures for piping that must transport substances that solidify at ambient temperatures.
BS 6231 is a British Standard, last revised in 2006 by the BSI Group. [4] This standard specifies the performance and construction requirements of electrical cables that are single core, non-sheathed, PVC-insulated and rated 600/1000 V. Wire meeting the requirements of type CK of this standard is used as tri-rated wire.
