Concept PEX / Introduction
Cross-Linked Polyethylene (PE-X)
PE-X systems can be used independently or can complement the equally wide range of PP-R system, produced and supplied by conceptPEX®.
PE-X which stands for cross-linked (X) Polyethylene (PE), results from chemically adjoining polyethylene molecules in order to improve their properties, especially at high temperatures. This, results in a structure that stays rigid when high temperature is applied, thus is raising the thermal stability of the material under load. Cross-linking makes PEX a "thermoset" polymer, which gives it long-term stability, which greatly increases the environmental stress crack resistance and the resistance to slow crack growth due to deterioration of the material under continuous temperature use.
Applications of the conceptPEX® System
- Cold and warm potable water pipe delivery networks in virtually all buildings including villas, residential & office buildings, tower buildings & functional buildings such as schools, hospitals, hotels and stadiums.
- Water distribution within buildings, including kitchen, bathroom, and laundry rooms.
- Hot pipe networks such as boilers and generator mains.
- Under-floor heating, central heating, heat & radiator connections.
- Compressed air, water, and most chemicals for factories & buildings.
- Swimming pool networks.
- Networks for the delivery of aggressive fluids.
- Air-conditioning systems.
- Automotive and ship- building.
- Transport of industrial gases, compressed air and fluids (including fuel oil, gases, acids & alkalis.)
- Natural gas supply extreme or ambient conditions.
Advantages of conceptPEX® System
- Wide range of temperature application.
- Wide variety of components to cover all applications.
- Reduced deformation under load (creep), and resistance to crack growth.
- Excellent aging resistance.
- Excellent chemical resistance.
- Increased abrasion resistance.
- Excellent mechanical strength and durability, even at low temperatures.
- No corrosion within the system.
- Prevention of corrosion within other interacting systems.
- Excellent flow performance properties.
- Hygienically sound with no adverse effects on potable water.
- Easy and reliable installation.
- Long and trouble-free service life.
- Excellent price/benefit ratio.
Installation
The installation of PEX pipe is generally easier than rigid pipe. The pipe is light weight compare to stell or copper pipes, making it easy to transport and safe to handle before and during installation, and as conceptPEX® pipes are produced in 50 and 100 meter coil installation requires fewer coupling joints (fittings). In addition, no solvent, chemical or solder joining is required, saving time and effort.

Warranty
As a statement to conceptPEX® quality standards the conceptPEX® pipe system carries a 10 year warranty for possible material faults in all pipes, fittings and accessories.
**Please note that he warranty does not cover improper installation as per the recommendations outlined in this catalogue. In the case of a complaint of damage, it is our responsibility and right to make an inspection of the fault at the site of installation through our authorized personnel, within one week from the date of reported written complaint sent to our main office address
To guarantee quality conceptPEX® 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 accelerated hydrostatic tests, impact tests, dimensional tests, and many other tests according to DVGW requirements and beyond.
