Installation guidelines for KELOX threaded joints Easy steps to make a watertight KELOX joint:

1. Cut to size: Always cut at a right angle and never bend the pipe before cutting.

1.1. d16 – d25: use the pipe cutter (WZ930)1.2. d25: wheel pipe cutter (WZ935) can

also be used

2. Calibrate and chamfer Always turn clockwise, both into and out

of the pipe.

2.1 d16 – d25 Click the handle of the calibrating tool (WZ915) and keep turning clockwise as far as it can go.

This achieves the following:

Cutting angle is 90° The inside of the pipe is calibrated The pipe is de-burred on the outside 1mm deep chamfer on the inside of the

pipe end. A visual check should be made.

2.2 Slow running drill or power screwdriver can be used.

Remove the handle beforehand.

3. Mark the insertion depth of the screw fitting on the pipe

All of the calibration tools have a window for marking the correct insertion depth on the pipe.

The screw joints may be rotated after the joint has been made to make installation easier

4. Push on the screw fitting WITHOUT using excessive force!

• Push the nut over the end of the KELOX pipe

• Important: push the socket onto the pipe as far as the marking

5. Making the joint: Important: take note of the starting torque5.1 The nut is now screwed to its counterpart

(e.g. the male thread of a KELOX fitting). As a result the pipe is pressed and all of the sealing functions are activated.

5.2 If the screws are tightened to such an extent that only one turn of the thread is visible this usually means that sufficient torque has been applied.

Once the screw has been tightened the marking for the insertion depth should no longer be visible. (if this is not the case the pipe has slipped out of the socket)

If the screw has not been tightened it is still possible that the o-ring seal will keep the joint watertight during the pressure testing but the axial connection is only achieved by tighte-ning the thread.

It is therefore important to make a visual check of all the joints

Installation guidelines for KELOX ULTRAX press joints

Easy steps to make a watertight KELOX ULTRAX press joint

1. Cut to size: Always cut at a right angle.

Straighten the pipe before cutting.1.1 d16–d25: use the pipe cutter (WZ930)1.2 d25–d63: use the wheel pipe cutter

(WZ935)

2. Calibrate and chamfer Always turn clockwise, both into and out of the pipe.

2.1 d16–d32 Click the handle of the calibrating tool

(WZ915) and keep turning clockwise as far as it can go.


• Cutting angle is 90°• Inside of the pipe is calibrated• Pipe is de-burred on the outside• 1mm deep chamfer on the inside of the

pipe end. A visual check should be made

2.2 d40–d63 Turn the de-burring tool (KZ913) clockwise as far as it will go


• The inside of the pipe is perfectly round• 1mm deep chamfer on the inside of the

pipe end. A visual check should be made

2.3 A slow running drill or power screwdriver can be used. Remove the handle beforehand.

3. Push the press fitting on to the pipe without using excessive force

• Push the press fitting over the end of the KELOX ULTRAX pipe

• Important: Ensure that the pipe is pushed in as far as it can go.

The window in the fitting enables you to check whether the pipe has been fully inserted. Make the press connection immediately after the pipe has been inserted into the fitting.

4. PressingFit the press jaws for (U contour) the appropriate dimension to the press machine

4.1 Press KELOX ULTRAX fittingsThe sleeves on the fitting have two buffers to ensure that the press jaws (U contour) are positioned correctly even in awkward positions.

4.2 The design of the fitting and the geometry of the profile means that it is possible to detect fittings in the sizes d16–32 (“leak before pressed“ fittings) which have not been pressed when the pressure test is carried out.Just press the fitting and the joint is done.

4.3 To make installation easier and more secure the fittings and the bodies containing the O-rings and press sleeves are supplied separately for sizes d40–63. The sleeves are pushed over the calibrated end of the KELOX ULTRAX pipe and afterwards the fitting is pushed into the pipe.

4.4 The pressing procedure is completed once the press jaws are completely closed. Afterwards, open the press tongs and move them away from the joint.

The pressing procedure can only be done once.

4.5 The same procedure applies if the manual press jaws (WZ983) are used

The pressed joints may be rotated after the joint has been made to make installation easier

The system should only be installed by qualified plumbers!

Our product principles – your advantages

l Simple No requirement for expensive machinery Complete range of fittings from d16 to d32

l Secure A NON-detachable joint The sealing of the joint is the highest priority The pipe is fixed by a grab ring on the inside The protector prevents the insertion of fittings which

have not been calibrated The result is a watertight joint where the pipe

cannot be pulled out of the fitting. The window in the fitting provides extra security.

l Easy to handle Body of the fitting is the perfect size No problem for embedded piping Slim joint makes it easy to insulate

l Robust The materials used reflect the latest technology: Non-porous metal-plated brass Grilamide, PA-GF, EPDM nano-coated

l Suited to site conditions The joint is sealed on the inside surface of the

KELOX pipe where it is clean and calibrated Grease-free EPDM O rings No problems with dirt Little force required (do not add any lubrication) Joint can be turned or adjusted after installation

l Tested Subject to extensive testing: Water hammer, temperature change,

high pressure, tensile strength Certified by DVGW and ÖVGW

l KE KELIT Patent Austrian Patent no: 410706 European patent no: 1150056 Licences have been granted to

renowned European partners

1. Cut to length: Straighten the coil so that the

pipe can be cut at right angles1.1 Use the pipe cutter (WZ930)

for sizes d16–251.2 The wheel pipe cutter (WZ935)

can also be used for size d32 2. Calibrate and chamfer:

Always turn clockwise, both into and out of the pipe

2.1 Click the handle of the calibrating tool (WZ915) and keep turning clockwise as far as it can go.

2.2 Alternatively, a slow running drill or power screwdriver can be used. Remove the handle beforehand

This achieves the following: • Cutting angle is corrected to 90° • Inside of the pipe is calibrated • Pipe is de-burred on the outside • Chamfer on the inside of the pipe end,

about 1mm deep – a visual check should be made

Ensure that pipes that have already been joined to a fitting at one end do not turn when the pipe is being calibrated at the other end.3. Making the push connection Push the fitting straight (NOT at an angle)

over the end of the pipe as far as it will go.

3.1 The protector ring is a safety function to prevent pipes that have not been calibrated from being pushed into the fitting.

This achieves the following: • Permanently watertight joint • Axial joint as is made by the non-

metallic pull-out barriers • Check the insertion depth!The pipe must still be visible in the window after the presure test has been completed and also during operation of the system.

The joints may be rotated after the joint has been made to make installation easier!

Points to observe when working with KELOX

1. By following the guidelines carefully KELOX joints are very secure and pose no problems

2. It is essential that the system is installed by a qualified professional.

3. Mistakes made in installation or non-observance of the guidelines (pages 12–19, 42 and 43) cannot be compensated by pressure testing.

4. The recommended pressure tests (pages 25 and 37) are no gua-rantee against mistakes made during installation

5. Every pressure test is just a reflection of the current status of a section of the system.

6. The long-term properties are documented in the appropriate standards and are monitored by authorised institutes.

7. The quality of the final instal-lation is dependent to a high degree on the care YOU take.

Spend 5 seconds checking each joint for your security

3 seconds Visual check of the pipe end

to ensure that the whole of the circumference has been chamfered

This ensures that:l the pipe has been correctly

calibratedl The O-rings cannot be displaced

or damaged.l Pipes can be joined without

excessive force

2 seconds Check the insertion depth

This ensures:l The axial joint is made when

the joint is screwed or pressed.l The grab ring in the push

fittings is activated and secures the axial joint.

0 seconds (Where possible) don’t waste

any time between inserting the pipe and making the press or screw joint

This ensures that:l The press has not been

forgottenl The joining of the screw fitting

has not been forgottenl Full insertion of the pipe is

required for the push fitting to function

The classic two pipe system

Design criteria for an efficient system

Taking into account the total length of the piping and the extra losses at the system com-ponents (e.g. valves) the pressure loss can be assumed to be 100 –200 Pa/m

The standard optiontried and trusted

Advantagesl Same temperature for all of the radiators

(source of comfort)l Recognised system for calculating heat costsl Typical system for renovation of old

buildingsl Well suited for skirting boards

The one pipe system


Taking into account the total length of the main riser in one pipe systems and the extra losses at the system components (pipes branching off from the riser, Z values of 4 way valves …) the pressure loss can be assumed to be 100 –200 Pa/m

The “savings option”Quick and value for money

AdvantagesUsing 4-way valvesl No connections in the floorl Very quick installationl Only one pipe size after the riser

Heat insulation for heating pipes

When conformity to ÖNORM M7580 is requiredÖNORM M7580 is the standard used for insulating all components of heating systems and hot water systems in rooms where no heating is required.The standard also distinguishes between methods of installation:

Non-embedded pipingThis is defined by ÖNORM M7580 as any exposed piping and piping installed in front of the wall or in the shaft. The aim is to obtain a heat transition coefficient of K ≤ 0.35 W/m°C. This value is irrespective of the actual thermal conductivity of the insulating material at 60°C (λ = 0.039 W/m°C)

Embedded pipingThe insulation thickness should conform to the requirements of ÖNORM M7580 (2/3 of the outside diameter of the pipe or a minimum of 9mm) but also ensure that the heat transition coefficient does not exceed K ≤ 0.35 W/m°C.

When conformity to ÖNORM M7580 is not requiredHeating pipes do not need to meet the requirements of ÖNORM M7580 if the whole of the heat loss can be used as a source of heat in rooms which are designed to be heated.

If this is the case follow the recommendations made by KE KELIT which also take into account aspects such as sound insulation etc…

Two pipe heating system with a central manifold


As a result of the short runs from the manifold to the individual radiators but also taking into account the extra losses at the system compon-ents (e.g. valves), the pressure loss can be assumed to be 250–400 Pa/m.

The “spaghetti system” The ideal solution both for installing and for comfort

Advantagesl Only one pipe size from the manifoldl No connections in the floorl Every pipe to the radiator can be managed

separatelyl If a radiator is defect energy is saved

because there is no circulation in the pipe system

Pressure testing report for heating systemsKE KELIT recommends carrying out the pressure testing according to the guidelines in DIN18380Please note that a pressure test is an assessment of how the system is functioning at the time of the test. It is not a guarantee against any mistakes made during installation.Check all the points concerning the installation of the system (pages 12 –19) before starting the pressure test.

Pressure testThe test pressure is equal to 1.3 times the operating pressure or a minimum of 1 bar above the operating temperature at every point. Only manometers which can read a change of pressure of 0.1 bar should be used. The manometer should be located at the lowest possible point in the system.

Time should be allocated to allow for the equalisation of the temperature between the ambient temperature and the medium temperature after the test pressure has been set. When this period has elapsed the test pressure should be re-set.

All tanks, components and faucets which are unsuited to pressure testing should be separated from the system during the pressure testing. The system is then filled with filtered water and the air removed. During the testing a visual check should be made at all the joints.

The testing pressure must be maintained for 2 hours and should not drop more than 0.2 bar. There should be no leaking at the joints during the test.

Testing pressure: ……. bar

Testing time: ……. hours

Example 1:

Traditional system with KELOX fittings

Drinking water system

The KELOX ULTRAX multilayer system is registered and approved by the DVGW and the ÖVGW EN ISO 21003 specifies the following criteria:

l Operating temperature: 70°C – tmax 80°C

l Long-term pressure resistance: 10 bar

l Approval for foodstuff in accordancewith ÖNORM B 5014/1 for pipes and fittings

l Joints for embedded piping are permanently sealed

l Joints are resistant to water hammer

The KELOX ULTRAX system meets all of these requirements

Advantages l The pipe is delivered in coils, so there

is no waste

l Pre-insulated pipes are also available in coils

l Straight pipes are also available for exposed piping

l A wide range of sizes: d16 – 63 mm

l Quick installation

l No deposits on the smooth internal surface

l Low heat expansion which is comparable to metal pipes

l Fittings made of stress-relieved brass with a coating of non-porous metal plating

l KELOX PROtec push system

Guidelines in ÖNORM B 5019

In order to meet hygiene requirements please observe the following:

l Get the pipe sizing right: The aim is to be as small as possible and as large as necessary (see page 34)

l Insulating the pipes in the shaft. The cold water piping should not be warmer than 20°C (see page 35)

l Remove little used outlets from the central hot water circuit. Avoid long periods of stagnation

l Avoid dead pipelinesCut off any dormant piping

l Ensure that the system components are kept clean during delivery, storage and installation

l Install monitoring devicesl It is recommended to install several

monitoring devices at places which are easy to access.

l Pressure testingl Drinking water systems which are not im-

mediately put into operation after installa-tion should be tested for leaks with oil-free compressed air or nitrogen (see pages 36 and 37)

l Rinsing and starting operationl The complete drinking water installation

must be rinsed intensively with hygienic drinking water (see page 41)

l Set up a file for reports on the operation of the system

Example 2:Hot and cold water manifold with joints at each outlet and no joints in the floor

Example 3:Supply to several outlets with hot water circulation to the final outlet.

Pipe sizing pressure loss in KELOX ULTRAX multilayer pipes

The total pressure loss (Dp) in the KELOX UL-TRAX pipe system is calculated by multiplying the friction loss (R) by the length of the piping (l) plus the sum (S) of the friction losses for the individual fittings (Z).

Total pressure loss Dp:

Dp = (l . R + S Z) in Pa

The choice of pipe size for the water supply is dependent on the following factors:

l The available water pressurel Geodetic difference in heightl Pressure losses through system componentsl Minimum flow pressure through faucetsl Pressure losses in the pipesl The individual pressure losses of the fittingsl Type, number and simultaneous use of the draw-off pointsl Flow velocity

Note:For the purpose of pipe sizing it is assumed that there will be no reduction in theinternal diameter caused by incrustation since the surface structure of the pipe is amorphous and the surface roughness of the pipe is mini-mal (0.007)

Pipe sizing to EN 806/3The calculation procedure mentioned below is to determine the pipe size for normal installations. For special categories such as hospitals, spas, hotels, schools etc the pipe size is usually determined by the method in the standard DIN 1988/3. This method is applied for hot and cold water pipes.1 loading unit (LU) is equivalent to a draw-off flow rate of 0.1 l/s.

With regard to economic efficiency the flow velocity should be at least 1m/s. Taking into account flow sound the maximum velocity should not exceed 2m/s. For individual pipes running to the draw-off point a maximum velocity of 4m/s is permissible.

After adding up the loading units the diameter of the pipe can be read off the following table

Example:The following outlets need to be served by the riser pipe:4 domestic baths 4 x LU 4 = 164 showers 4 x LU 2 = 84 wash basins 4 x LU 1 = 44 wc cisterns 4 x LU 1 = 44 kitchen sinks 4 x LU 2 = 84 dish washing machines 4 x LU 2 = 82 washing machines 2 x LU 2 = 4

Total number of loading units: 52Result: In accordance with ÖNORM EN 806-3 the following table shows that ad32 x 3 mm KELOX ULTRAX pipe is required.

Guidelines for pipe sizing (DIN 1988/3)

1. Determine the design flow rate and minimum flow pressure for allthe draw-off fittings

The design flow rate VR is derived from the draw-off fitting flow rate. The table below gi-ves guideline values for the design flow rate of common types of fittings and appliances. The design flow rate VR may be determined as a mean value using the following equation.

VR = Vmin + Vmax 2

2. Determine total flow rates and assign to pipe runs The design flow rates for all draw-off points shall be added, starting at the draw-off point furthest from the water main and ending at the water main, and the total flow rates so ob-tained assigned to the pipe runs considered, each run extending from the fitting where the total flow rate or pipe diameter changes until the next fitting.

At the junction of the cold water pipe feeding the water heater with the pipe that branches off, the total flow rate comprises that of the cold and hot water side.

3. Use of total flow rate / peak flow rate

The design flow rate of all draw-off points shall be included in the design of water supp-ly system, adding the flow rate of the draw-off points for which continuous use is to be assu-med to the peak flow rate of the other draw-off points (continuous use being defined as use lasting more than 15 minutes).Assumptions regarding simultaneous demand are to be based on the type of building or its occupation (e.g. residential building or commu-nal facility). Normally it may be assumed that not all draw-off fittings are fully open at the same time.The conversion curves for the different applica-tions are shown on pages 32 and 33.

4. Determination of pipe diameter

Determine the pipe size, pressure loss and flow velocity (see tables on page 34).

5. Evaluation of head loss in terms of available pressure

The head loss shall be almost equal to but not greater than the available total head loss.

Residential buildingsAn additional wash basin, sitz bath, WC, urinal and shower (in addition to the bath tub) need not be allowed for in determining the total flow rate if it may be assumed that the level of simultaneous use will not be increased by the use of these appliances.

SchoolsThe peak flow rate is deemed to be equal to the design flow rate where ∑VR does not exceed 1,5 l/s.

Hotels, department stores and hospitalsIf the system is equipped with draw-off fittings with a design flow rate of more than VR ≥ 0,5 l/s then, where the total flow rate is ≤ 1,0 l/s the peak flow rate shall be deemed to be equal to the total flow rate. If the total flow rate is >1,0 l/s and ≤ 20 l/s curve K (equation: VR =(∑ VR)0,366 in l/s) is used for calculating the peak flow rate.

Special caseIf the system is equipped with draw-off fittings with a design flow rate of more than VR ≥ 0,5 l/s then, where the total flow rate is between 0,5 l/s and 1,0 l/s the peak flow rate shall be deemed to be equal to the total flow rate. If the total flow rate is ≥ 1,0 l/s or more curve B shall be used.

Other special buildings, commercial and industrial premisesParticular considerations must be given to the extent to which simultaneous demand is to be assumed for water supply systems on commercial and trade premises. The total flow rate is determined in consultation with the operator of the system.

Heat insulationDrinking water pipes (cold)Care should be taken to prevent a deterioration in the water quality as a result of warming

Drinking water pipes (hot)The pipes should be insulated in accordance with ÖNORM M 7580. The followingrecommendations are calculated on the as-sumption that the insulation is the LX type.

Surface-mounted installations:ÖNORM M7580 defines exposed piping as in-stallations in front of the wall and in the shaft. Following the requirements of the standard and taking into account the insulating proper-ties of LEXEL (λ at 40°C: 0.038 W/m°C) and the specified insulation thickness the compa-rison of pipe sizes for different materials is shown below:

KE KELIT recommends testing to EN 806-4 for plastic pipes as stated below.l The pressure testing is split into a prelimina-

ry test and a main test to account for the expansion of the plastic material.

a) Preparation1. After the pipes have been installed and

before they are concealed the piping is filled with water and any air removed.

2. If possible the pump should be placed at the lowest point in the system

3. The manometer should be capable of reliab-ly reading changes in pressure of 0.1 bar

b) Preliminary testingThe test pressure is equal to 1.1 times the operating pressure of the system (minimum: 11 bar). The test pressure must be built up over a period of 30 minutes. Within the 30 minutes the pressure should be adjusted 2 times (each time 10 mins apart). After a further period of 30 minutes under pressure there should be no leaks and the drop in pressure should not ex-ceed 0.6 bar.

Note: KELOX PROtec push fittingDue to the construction of the PROtec fitting there may be a larger fall in pressure at the beginning of the pressure test. This can be compensated for by increasing the pressure several times during the preliminary phase of the testing.

c) Main testing The main testing should be carried out imme-diately after the preliminary testing. The dura-tion of the test is 2 hours. The drop in pressure between the end of the preliminary testing and the end of the 2 hour main test must not exceed 0.2 bar. There should be no leakages anywhere in the system.

Pressure testing with air (ZV-SHK 2004)In exceptional circumstances a pressure test with oil-free compressed air or inert gas can be carried out when there is a valid reason such as.:l Hygiene requirements specified in

ÖNORM B 5019l Risk of frostTesting pressure: maximum of 3 bar for pipes up to a maximum of d63 Testing time: 10 minutesA visual check should be made

Before completion the system should also be subjected to water pressure testing in accor-dance with EN 806-4Please note:l Fluctuations in the temperature

may alter the test pressurel Every pressure test is an assessment

of the current operation of the system and does not represent a guarantee against any mistakes made during installation

l After the pressure test has been completed we recommend issuing a test report

Expansion of KELOX ULTRAX pipes

Linear heat expansionUnder heat all materials increase in volume and/or length. The method of compensating for the expansion depends on how the pipes are installed

The linear expansion is determined by the length of the pipe, the increase in temperature and the coefficient of expansion.It is not determined by the diameter of the pipe.

Calculation of the liner expansion:

Δl = l · Δt · α

Δl = linear expansion (mm) l = length of piping (m) Δt = difference in temperature (K) α= coefficient of expansion (mm/mK)

The above table shows that under heat the KELOX multilayer pipe will expand in asimilar manner to metal materials.

Expansion loop for exposed piping

Compensation must be made for the expansi-on of KELOX ULTRAX pipes which occurs as a result of heat. This is done by allocating space for expansion in expansion loops using an-chor points and support points. Even if the rise in temperature is only for a short time suffici-ent compensation must be made for this tem-perature change.Compensation is always made between two an-chor points or between an anchor point and a change in direction of the piping (expansi-on loop)

Calculation of the expansion loop

MS = 30 · √d · Δl

d = outside diameter of pipe (mm)30 = coefficient for KELOX ULTRAXMS = minimum length of loop (mm) (e.g. from a 90° elbow to the next anchor point)

Example:A d50mm pipe runs for a length of 15m Δt = 50 K Question: What expansion loop is required to compensate for the expansion?Δl = 15 · 50 · 0,025Δl = 18,75 mm expansion

MS = 30 · √50 · 18,75MS = ~ 920 mm length of loop

Expansion of KELOX ULTRAX pipesLinear heat expansionUnder heat all materials increase in volume and/or length. The method of compensating for the expansion depends on how the pipes are installedThe linear expansion is determined by the length of the pipe, the increase in temperature and the coefficient of expansion. It is not determined by the diameter of the pipe.

Calculation of the liner expansion:

Ft = E · A · α · ∆ t 1000

Ft = linear expansion (mm)E = length of pipingA = cross-section of pipe surface (mm2)α= coefficient of expansion (mm/mK)∆ t = difference in temperature (K)

Example:KELOX ULTRAX pipe d25 x 2.5mm A = 176,71mm2

E module E = 4240 N/mm2

Coefficient of expansion α = 0,025 mm/m KTemperature during installation: tv = 20°CMedium temperature: tm = 60°CDifference in temperature Dt = 40 K

Guidelines for compen-sating expansion

Thought should be given to the required com-pensation for expansion when the lay-out of the pipes is being planned. Suppliers of pipe clamps and brackets offer a range of solutions.

Embedded pipes:Piping that is embedded in the wall is prevented from expansion by the pull-tight forces. Insula-tion material provides further room for expansi-on. Direct contact between the embedded pipes and fittings and the wall, tiles, mortar etc… should be prevented (e.g. by insulation).

Exposed piping:The installation of KELOX ULTRAX multilayer pipes is similar to the method for copper pipes. The flexibility of the pipes is an advantage when making expansion loops. How the system is an-chored depends on the structure of the building. Anchor points should not be installed on the body of the fittings which change the direction of the piping (see page 38). In general, vertical piping (e.g. riser pipes) can be fixed with an-chor points alone and these anchor points should be installed on the riser at the point where the pipe branches off from the riser.

Pipes installed in the floor: Axial movement of the pipes is possible in the insulation and the resulting linear expansion must be compensated for. Changes in the direc-tion of the insulation at right angles provides an opportunity for the expansion to be compensa-ted for by the insulation over the fittings and should be planned accordingly. No compensation is required for pipes which are directly embed-ded in screed or concrete. Foot sound and heat insulation should also be accounted for.

Rinsing

After pressure testing the drinking water pipes must be rinsed. Depending on the size of the installation and how the piping is run.The system should be rinsed in sections from the bottom to the top.

Drinking water must be used for rinsing the system.

Pipes for hot and cold water must be rinsed separately.

Each riser is rinsed in turn and the length of piping should not exceed 100 m.

Under normal circumstances all draw-off points should be opened. The rinsing time depends on the length of piping and should not be less than 15 seconds for each metre of pipe.

The rinsing time at each draw-off point should be at least two minutes. After the pipe has been rinsed for 2 minutes at the last draw-off point all the draw-off points are closed in the reverse order to which they were opened.

Sound control

DIN 4109 recommends the following measures:

Use low-sound faucets

Install pre-insulated pipes such as KELOX ULTRAX KM130 and KM134

Cover with sound-reducing insulation (e.g. Lexel)

Avoid high pressure and high flow velocity

Special measures should be taken for sound sensitive areas

Summary of the installation guidelines

1. The KELOX ULTRAX multilayer pipe system is made of plastic and needs to be treated carefully to prevent shocks, impact, indentations and buckling

2.Handle the KELOX ULTRAX pipes with care when they are being stored or trans-ported. The outside layer is

stabilised to protect against UV rays but the material should not be subjected to long-term UV exposure. The normal time required for sto-rage and installation does not affect the pipe.

3.Take care to observe the in-stallation guidelines for the screw, press and push fittings (see pages 12 to 19)

Important!l Always cut the pipe straight

at a right angle to its axis.l Pipe cutter only for sizes d14 – d25mm (!)l For d32 and above use the wheel

pipe cutter (!)l Calibrate the pipe ends exactlyl Push the fittings completely on to the

pipe without damaging the O-ringsl Tighten the threads securelyl Don´t forget to press the press fitting

to ensure that there is a long-term axial seall push fitting: “pushed = sealed”

5.Recommendation for pipe support spacingsBy observing the recommen-

ded spacings between the support points buck-ling of horizontal pipes filled with water is prevented.

Pipe Temperature Spacing

d 16 up to 60° 120 cm d 20 up to 60° 130 cm d 25 up to 60° 150 cm d 32 up to 60° 160 cm d 40 up to 60° 170 cm d 50 up to 60° 200 cm d 63 up to 60° 220 cm d 75 up to 60° 240 cm

If the temperature is above 60°C the spacings should be reduced by 10%

6.The expansion of KELOX ULTRAX multilayer pipes is clearly defined and must be accounted for in the design and installation of the system

(see pages 38–40).No compensation for expansion is required for pipes installed in the wall.

Exposed pipingFor long runs of piping the fixed points are chosen so as to enable to the piping to be divided into separate expansion zones..The suppliers of fixing components and brackets can often provide a solution

7.Avoid using heat to bend the pipes. KELOX ULTRAX multi-layer pipes are easy to bend

and do not spring back to their original shape.Ensure that the pipe does not buckle! Don´t install damaged or incorrectly joined pipesFor bending to a narrow radius please use the spring coil or pipe bending tool

Maximum bending radius: by with the with the Pipe hand bending tool spring coil

d 16 5 x d 3,5 x d 3 x dd 20 5 x d 3,5 x d 3 x dd 25 5 x d 4 x d 4 x dd 32 ––– 4 x d –––d 40 ––– 4 x d –––d 50 ––– 4 x d –––d 63 ––– 4 x d –––

Avoid bending to a narrow radius immediate-ly after joining the pipe with a screw or press fitting because this could damage the sup-port sleeve.

8.Every water and heating in-stallation has to be subjected to a pressure test (see pages 25 and 36–37). The KELOX ULTRAX system has the fit-

tings WZ958 and WZ959 which can be used as temporary stoppers for the pressure test.Keep a written report of the pressure test (see pages 25 and 37)

9.Water containing glycols for anti-freeze is not a problem for KELOX ULTRAX. Please

observe the supplier´s instructions.

10.l Short term exposure to a temperature of 90° is no problem for KELOX ULTRAX

multilayer pipes. Avoid long term exposure to this temperature and also avoid any higher temperatures.

l The disinfection of the pipe system with chlorine dioxide, chlorine or ozone in accor-dance with the existing standards is no pro-blem. Excessive concentrations or dosages can lead to premature ageing of the pipe system. Please observe the standard ÖNORM B 5019

l ÖNORM H 5195/1 specifies the pH value and the water hardness of heating and refill water. This can influence how the valves and control components function.

11.In order to qualify for insu-rance cover each installation must only use KELOX ULTRAX system components

12. In order to install the KELOX ULTRAX multilayer pipe suc-cessfully a minimal amount of expenditure is required for tools. For your own secu-

rity we recommend that you use the tried and used tools and carry out regular maintenance.

13. If you are in doubt do not hesitate to contact our tech-nicians. There is not always a perfect solution but we can always help.

4. If the protector ring or sleeve of the PROtec fitting is damaged during transport or installa-tion please return these parts and they will be exchanged.
