Advantages of Zn-Al rare earth alloy coating PU coating of ductile iron pipe and fitting is formed by the PU material sprayed and cured on the surface

Refining effect
During solidification of the coating, rare-earth element can reduce the surface tension of plating solution
to increase the crystal core so as to refine the crystalline grains. Such fine eutectic structures can prevent
the extension of cracks, even the structures and eliminate bare spots on the surface of coating. This is
the important mechanism of rare earth to improve the plasticity and flexibility of the coating, and it is also a
special feature of the rare-earth alloy coating.

1.8.2.4 Polyethylene sleeve
Product description:
PE sleeve is the Polyethylene or a mixture of polyethylene and/or ethylene and olefin copolymers sleeve (film)
with thickness of 0.2mm that is wrapped on external walls of the pipe on the construction site. It can prevent
direct contact between cast iron pipes and the soil. Meanwhile, it also prevents underground moisture from
corroding the pipelines. It is used to supplement the basic pipe coating (metalic Znic + HCPE finishing layer)
in certain case of highly corrosive soils or in the presence of stray current.

Specification range
This kind of anti-corrosion coating is applicable to ductile iron pipes of all sizes.

Anti-corrosion mechanism
The anti-corrosion mechanisms for PE sleeve (film) wrapped outside zinc coating are as following:

First of all, PE sleeve can separate the pipelines from corrosive soil and inhibit the generation of
electrochemical cell. At the same time, it can also isolate stray current.

The PE sleeve is a kind of anti-corrosion method whose performance is achieved through the changing
of corrosive environment: it can change the corrosive environment from non-homogeneous soil with strong
aggressivity into one that is homogeneous with weak aggressivity.

Application fields
It is suggested to adopt this kind of protective layer for corrosive soil, for example:

Soil with low resistivity (with indicator of high aggressivity);


Regions with stray current;
Regions with high chlorine or sulphur content or active bacteria indicated by the analysis.

Pressure piping system
If the starting point of the pipeline is not high enough and the water can not be supplied by gravity flow, it is
necessary to use the booster pump which delivers water to the water supply location.
This piping system has the following characteristics:
1) The water pressure can be easily controlled;
2) It is less affected by terrain conditions, so the pipeline route is subject to less restriction.
3) Continous power input is needed. Thus, during pipeline design, various designing options shall be

Prevent the pressure from rising too high:
1) Set a water hammer arrestor
2) Set an air cylinder (for the shorter pipeline or the smaller pipe diameter)
3) Adopt slow closing check valve or hydraulic control check valve (special devices to eliminate
water hammer due to pump-stopping)

4.5.5.2 The formula to calculate water hammer phase is as following: 4.6 Depth of cover for pipeline
Time required for the water hammer wave to be transmitted one round in the pipeline is 2L/a, namely phase
or water hammer phase. The theoretical allowable depths of cover for pipes with different pressure levels are calculated in
2L
Tf = (s) accordance with ISO 10803, and three different traffic load factor values, six soil groups and five types of
a pipe trenches are assumed. Some calculation results are shown in the table below, which can be referred to

4.7 Anchoring methods and design 4.7.1.3 Reducing pipe

When the pipe changes direction (at the bends or tees), blank flanges (at each end), or changes size (at
the tapers), hydraulic thrust will occur in the water pipeline. On this occasion, the restrictive measures shall F

be taken to keep the pipeline from being affected. There are several restrictive methods available, among
them, the concrete anchor blocks and self-anchored joint are the most common methods.

and socket 7 in parallel, make the internal conical surface of gland 1 to closely fit the
external conical surface of locking ring 2, then tighten hook bolt 5 to fix gland 1 with
socket 7 by tightening hook bolt 5. When tightening the bolt, take care to it is necessary
to carefully check and adjust so that the bevel eave tile slope of hook bolt 5 fits well

In order to prevent large hard objects from damaging PE sleeve during backfilling, the grassy meadow
can be put on top of the pipe or sand, loam or soil without stones and other hard objects can be used for
backfilling. It is preferential to forbid from walking on the completed pipes, so as to avoid damage to the PE
sleeve.
For fittings such as tees and crosses, as required by the pipe shapes, it is necessary to cut off the PE
sleeve or directly wrap PE sheet arround the entire pipe and then stick the joints of PE sleeve with the
adhesive tape.

pit to overcome friction between pipe and the surrounding soil and jack the pipe section by section into the
soil as required in the design, then remove the earth till the pipes are laid completely, as shown in the figure

Excavating and jacking can be started when equipment in the working pit has been installed and kept in
good conditions during inspection. unrestrained joint

Firstly, lower the pipe to the guide rail and put it in place, install the thrust ring, then check elevations of the
pipe center and bottom. If they meet the design requirements, pipe jacking can be started.
Precautions for jacking:
General principles

The relevant measures can be taken to reduce the jacking resistance
The grouting is the most effective way to reduce the jacking resistance during jacking of long distance pipe,

namely, injecting slurry around the pipe wall to form a lubricating sleeve so as to reduce resistance when
jacking.

for enough time so as to stabilize the pressure.
Stably increase pressure till the prescribed test pressure after it passed the visual inspection. If
necessary, keep test pressure by a pump within the range of test pressure 0.1 bar for at least 1 hour.

7.1.6 Rubber flap check valve
Check valve is mainly used for exit of pipeline pump for water supply and drainage system, petroleum,
chemical industry and other industrial fields, aiming to prevent the backflow of transmitted medium.
Since the product sealing adopts inclined design, closing time is shorter, can reduce the pressure of water
hammer. Valve clack is made through high-temperature pressing of butyronitrile oil resistant rubber and
steel plate; washing-out resistance, good sealing performance, simple product structure; maintenance,
repair and transportation are convenient.

7.2 Before purchasing

Selected valve type: Select the type according to use requirements (select the butterfly valve for
regulation, select the ball valve or gate valve for the switch);
Select the valve pressure grade; Select the valve pressure grade according to pipeline design
pressure. (PN10 PN16 PN25 PN40);
Select the valve diameter;
Select the temperature range Operating temperature of medium determines the valve sealing type;
selecting good temperature grade can postpone the service life of valve;
Select the valve material: Select according to medium condition, whether determine the valve material TAKE XINXING,
according to corrosivity;
Select the valve sealing type: Rubber sealing, fluorine rubber sealing, graphite sealing, hard alloy TAKE THE WORLD
sealing, and etc. (with different sealing types, service life of valve is different; sealing type also determines
the valve leakage);
