Complete Pipe Solutions In The North West
A range of pipe and joint solutions from Durapipe UK have been specified to cater for new build office and laboratory space in the North West.
Durapipe Detecta-line has been produced from a robust and ductile ABS material to provide a high performance pipework system that can offer efficient and reliable conveyance of air samples from protected zones.
Aspirating smoke detection systems can detect smoke at vastly lower densities than ordinary smoke detection systems and operate by actively and continuously sampling air.
However, the satisfactory operation of these systems is highly reliant upon the capabilities of the associated pipework and Durapipe Detecta-line's bespoke product specification guarantees high performance levels throughout its lifetime.
Durapipe Detecta-line is a solvent welded system and sampling holes can be simply drilled into the pipework to allow active air sampling throughout the system.
The handling speed of the system allows contractors to easily install Durapipe Detecta-line pipework into any new or existing aspirating smoke detection system, ensuring labour time and costs are kept to a minimum.
Manufactured from ABS, the new range also offers a selection of long-term benefits: boasting corrosion free properties and extreme ductility, even at -40 C, making it ideal for use in extreme environments such as cold stores.
The minimal maintenance requirements mean it is also ideal for any building application.
Durapipe Detecta-line is a red pipework system and comprises of pipe in three metre lengths as standard, along with a complete range of fittings including couplings, tees, 90 bends, 45 elbows, socket unions, end caps and cobra pipe clips.
Durapipe UK is at the forefront of thermoplastic pipework and offers specifiers and contractors a range of product choice to meet a diverse range of applications.
