Technical Information
What is Silent Pipe and Waste Water Systems Residence Pipe?
The liquids passing through the Waste Water Pipes at different flow rates hit the inside of the pipes and move through the building leading to vibrations during such progression causing disturbances in our living spaces. With the development of modern construction areas, the importance of silence and insulation has become increasingly important in preferred projects. The construction companies required quieter piping to reduce the additional labor costs and time costs for installation insulation. Thus, Fırat Plastik came up with Residence Silent Waste Water Pipe with a sound value of 11 Db for 3.5 mm and 11 Db for 4.2 mm suiting modern-day projects.
Silent Pipe Features
RESIDENCE PIPES AND FITTINGS are produced as three-layers of U-PVC and vinyl-copolymer (FRvinylflex).
Inner Layer: The smooth inner surface is made of U-PVC.Middle Layer: FRvinylflex® is a mineral-based additive developed at Fırat R&D laboratories providing Residence Pipes with soundproof features.
Outer Layer: They are made of U-PVC which protects the pipe against external impacts.
Improved Silence of “11 dB”
It is the Waste Water Pipe System, of which the silence feature has been attested in German laboratories. * According to the test reports of “Determination of Acoustic Performance of Sewage Installation Systems under Laboratory Conditions” carried out by Fraunhofer IBP Building Physics Institute, sound level of Residence Pipes and Fittings is 11 dB.
According to the results of the sound level measurement test done at the Fraunhofer Institut Bauphysik (Germany)
Residence Pipe and its fittings meet all national and international standard requirements.
| Flow Rate (liters per second) | 0,5 | 1,0 | 2,0 | 4,0 |
| Characteristic Sound Level Decibels (dB(A)) (Clamp-in Pipe System) | <10 | <10 | <10 | 11 |
Gasket
The gaskets used in Residence Pipes and Fittings are made from EPDM paste as they are 100% Water tight thanks to their unidirectional and special exterior shape. Exclusive gasket system reinforcing improved silence. Produced according to TS EN 681-1 standard
