PEX tubing Ritmo

Apparatus for electrofusion welding used to weld tubing of low and high pressure.. The main feature of these devices is the ability to change the voltage and duration of welding according to the manufacturer’s instructions fittings.

Installing of PEX fitting

We recommended for install PEX tubing and fittings with outside diameter 40 mm, as manual welding of large diameter tubing is very problematic. However, some models of this equipment may be in particular need to be used for installing large diameter tubing.
PEx Tools installing series Crimp PEX Tool Kit is recommended for welding tubing and fittings with a diameter of more than 40 mm. Thanks to its special configuration, the machines are capable of perfect alignment of the tubing and fittings, which enhances the quality, easier and faster welding.

Installing of PEX tubing

PEX tools Everhot used to work in the shop and are intended for the manufacture of special fittings, such as the knee (taps), Y-shaped, T-shaped and cruciform fittings, with clamps, fixing welded segments. Terminals operated hydraulic system, which not only puts into motion clips, but if necessary, manage their closing and opening.

PEX tube for radiant heating

PEX tube lungs and at the same time sufficiently strong, it is also important during the loading and unloading, and at the time of delivery, and during installation. Of course, labor costs when working with these products is much less compared to assembly and delivery of steel pipe. It is important also that of the mounting does not require special skills, enough to carefully study the instructions and try to follow it. As a rule, all foreign manufacturers are described in detail and colorfully illustrated by such instructions. So to understand the recommendations of the installation will not be difficult and will not take much time.

Typically, cross-linked PEX pipes are available in the so-called bays. Most often, the bays are 50 m long, sometimes can be up to 200 m, but under a special order and up to 1000 m.

We can say that the flexibility of cross-linked PEX pipes can save money on buying connective fittings. There is experience, when the pipes from the basement to “warm floor” on the second floor were built without additional connections. As for the PEX fittings and fasteners, then their range is incredibly broad and diverse.

Crosslinked PEX Rehau

From the well-known foreign brands, experts note REHAU – RAUTHERMS, REHAU – RAUTITAN PINK, WIRSBO. Approximate price for these products ranges from 1,1 to 9,1 at. f. per meter, depending on diameter.

Metal pipes also are made of crosslinked PEX, but for greater strength and stability of linear expansion of the top wrapped in aluminum foil thickness 0.2 mm, covered with a protective plastic layer. Metal pipes are used in cold and hot water, heating, process piping, water systems, to equip the underfloor heating, radiant heating farms and greenhouses. Such pipes are used in urban and suburban industrial and private housing, improvement of facilities for agricultural and private land in agriculture.

If we turn to the authoritative opinion, among the new products is very promising for its operational characteristics, the system of metal pipes and PEX fittings for  Plumbing. Cross-linked PEX, which is used for manufacturing pipes Plumbing, has a high heat resistance, which significantly increases the service life of pipes, even when coolant temperature to 70 ° C.
