Draino Concept/ Introduction

Draino Concept Introduction Draino Concept Data

General Information

Electrical switches, plugs, and electrical and data writing network conduits in virtually all buildings including villas, residential & office buildings, tower buildings & financial buildings such as schools, hospitals, hotels and stadiums.

Advantages of the Drainoconcept® System

The following properties of UPVC make it one of the most adaptable of all pipe materials for widespread use:

  • Light weight, convenient to handle, and relatively flexible and easy to install.
  • Chemically resistant to domestic and industrial alkalis, acids & oils.
  • The unique material formulation of Drainoconcept® piping systems assures long-term tensile and impact strength and durability.
  • Corrosion resistant to electromechanical reactions.
  • Fire resistant and self extinguishing.
  • UPVC has lower thermal conductivity than other pope materials which make it desirable in many applications.
  • Low installation Cost.

UPVC Characteristics:

Drainoconcept® pipes are made of UPVC plastics material (Un-plasticized Poly-Vinyl Chloride) homogeneously blended with property-enhancing additives to give the required ideal characteristics of impact and compression resistant properties. 

  • General Properties of UPVC:

Density:

1.42 g/cm²

Specific Heat:

1.0 KJ/Kg/˚C

Thermal Conductivity:

0.17 W/mk

Coefficient of Elongation:

80 x 10 K

Vicat Softening Point:

79˚C

Poisson’s Ratio:

1.3

Modulus of Elasticity:

3.0 N/mm²

Tensile Strength:

50 – 60 N/mm²

  • Fire Resistance

All Drainoconcept® product do not omit toxic gases in the case of fire, thus minimizing risk of developing dioxin or other lethal or harmful gases such as Hydrogen-Chloride.

UPVC material self-exists as defined by BS 2782. Fire protecting guidelines are set in accordance to regulations. Drainoconcept® materials fulfill requirements of fire class BS 4607.U

 

  • Chemical Resistance

Due to the nature of UPVC, Drainoconcept® pipes and fittings are highly chemical resistant for a wide range of chemicals used in building construction, However, PVC is prone to faster deterioration in hydrocarbons and chlorine based hydrocarbons in specific chemicals such as acetone and this should be avoided.

Applicable Standards:

  • BS EN 1329-1: Plastics piping systems for soil and waste discharge within the building structure- PVC-U.
  • BSEN 1401-1: Plastic piping systems for non pressure underground drainage & sewerage PVC-U.

Note: BS EN 1329 supersedes BS 4514 & BS 5255/BS EN 1401 supersedes BS 4660/BS 5481 resp.

Quality Assurance ... Our Mandate

Drainoconcept® was established with the mission of providing the highest levels of quality products to its clients. Drainoconcept® products are produced according to numerous standards and regulations.

To guarantee quality Drainoconcept’s state-of-art quality control labs, are utilized to perform different dimensional, physical and chemical property tests. Our engineers undertake many tests to simulate the aging piping systems under working conditions. These tests include the performance tests, physical tests, dimensional tests, and many other tests according to the most stringent of standards.
