Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to connect a PVC pipe (or a pipe of other material) with a HDPE pipe?

Valsir - F.A.Q. HDPE
Yes! It is necessary to know the diameters to be connected and to define whether the pipes to be connected together have a socket or otherwise.

I can't find HDPE pipe! Where can I get it?

Frequently Asked Questions :: PyroUniverse.com
Unfortunately, most plumbing stores don't carry HDPE - often times the store employees have never even heard of it. Usually it can only be found at large industrial plumbing supply places. You can also purchased pre-cut, plugged pieces of HDPE pipe from Pyrogear.net, which specializes in making mortars for fireworks.

I need to seal off a HDPE pipe, how should I proceed?

Valsir - F.A.Q. HDPE
Definitive Sealing: by welding the Valsir sealing cover (art. 342). Non-definitive sealing: solution A: by welding the Valsir sealing cap (art. 340). Solution B: by welding the Valsir collar (art. 347) then, using the Valsir free flange (art. .45), the corresponding set of Valsir bolts (art. 341), the Valsir sealing gasket (art. 343) and the Valsir blind flange (art. 346).

What is the flow path of a valve, and how do I pipe it up?

ASCO Valve - FAQ Product Questions
Flow paths are the direction that a media must travel through the valve in order for it to function properly. They vary from valve to valve and piping instructions, as shown in the Installation and Maintenance instructions supplied with every valve, should be carefully followed.

Or of those, how many may have DI?

Frequently Asked Questions-Page 5
No one knows the number of patients with DI in the United States or any other population. The number with enuresis has been estimated and shown to vary with age (from 25% of children at 5 years of age to 1% in adolescents and adults), but it is not known how many of those have DI. From various sources, it is estimated that the number of DI patients in the United States range between 40,000 to 80,000, but that calculation involves a lot of assumptions and could be way off.

What is HDPE?

New Page 1
High Density Poly Ethene but most commonly known as Polythene. One of the most common plastics you use in daily life it has an oily-type finish. Some of the original Prototype Stunt Stormtrooper Helmets were made in HDPE as Andrew Ainsworth (the original maker of the helmets) had some of this plastic in stock as he was making Garden ware and Fishponds. It was a khaki-coloured plastic and due to its oily nature it was a bit of a struggle getting the white paint to stick to it.

What pipe size is the Oil Probe?

Environmental Sensors Inc. - Support / Flo·Point͐...
The first models are standard 2 inch pipe, with 4 inch models in planning. The 2" unit fits to a 4 bolt ANSI 150 flange. The instrument is rated to ANSI 300 and 4-8 bolt adapters will fit the instrument to ANSI 300 pipe systems.

What is an IPS pipe size?

PIPEFUSION Services Inc. - Frequently Asked Questions
IPS stands for “Iron Pipe Size”. IPS pipe is sized with nominal outside diameter, and has been the way that most polyethylene pipe has traditionally been sized.

What is a DIPS pipe size?

PIPEFUSION Services Inc. - Frequently Asked Questions
DIPS stands for “Ductile Iron Pipe Size”, a sizing standard based on the outside diameter of ductile iron pipe. DIPS pipe sizes are primarily used in water systems where ductile iron pipe sizes were commonly used, and is becoming an increasingly popular sizing standard for polyethylene pipe.

What is a “DN” pipe size?

PIPEFUSION Services Inc. - Frequently Asked Questions
DN stands for “diametre nominelle”. These sizes, in millimeters, are set by the International Standards Organization and are in use throughout the world. They roughly correlate, converting inches to millimeters, with the nominal pipe sizes commonly in use in North America.

What is a “CTS” pipe size?

PIPEFUSION Services Inc. - Frequently Asked Questions
CTS stands for “Copper Tube Size”. Polyethylene pipe is available in small diameters to match this standard, which is primarily used in the plumbing industry, as well as occasionally in natural gas applications.

What is DI?

Berkshire Insurance - FAQs
Answer - Disability Insurance, a type of health insurance designed to compensate an insured person for a portion of the income lost because of a disabling injury or illness. Benefit payments are made either weekly or monthly for a specified period during the continuance of an insured’s disability.

What is the importance of O.D. and I.D.?

Wilmad-Labglass :: NMR/EPR FAQs
Failure to adhere to diameter tolerances can produce a diversity of undesirable performance characteristics in NMR spectroscopy. If the I.D. is too large, coaxial inserts can move during spectral accumulation. If the I.D. is too small, any insert can burst the tube making sample loss a catastrophic possibility. If the O.D. is too small, the tube might slip in the spinner turbine. This can cause the tube to become unsteady and cause modulation sidebands. If the O.D.

What pipe materials does Flow of Fluids Premium support?

Flow of Fluids Frequently Asked Questions - fluid flow analy...
Flow of Fluids Premium uses engineering data tables to look up the pipe data needed to perform the pressure drop calculations. You select the pipe material, and schedule or wall thickness, and the program presents the available nominal sizes. The program looks up the inside diameter and uses that value in the pressure drop calculations. The program comes with a variety of pipe size tables based on published pipe standards.

Besides the obvious pipe and flow data, what will I need to send to you?

Frequently Asked Questions - CrystalStream Technologies - St...
We need to see a plan view of the entire site (reduced is fine), and the area where we are proposed to be situated. We need topography and ground cover in our install area. Finally, we need the jurisdiction of the job so we can coordinate with the local authorities. Please visit our Links & Downloads to get a "Design Information Sheet", or complete our online form to get a design specific to your area.

What's the best pipe ID size for use in stand-pipe installations?

Frequenctly Asked Questions
Sensors with a 1" transducer should be installed in 2" stand-pipes. Sensors with a 2" transducer should be installed in 3" stand-pipes. Click to view stand pipe installation tech-tip.

What pipe size do you recommend for my system?

Frequently Asked Questions
Typically, the piping should be sized large enough so that frictional pressure drop within the piping system make up less than 10% of the operating pressure of the system. For example, a system operating at 100 psi should have less than 10 psi of frictional pressure losses in the piping system. Pressure losses in a piping system can be readily determined using the "equivalent length" method that is found in most piping handbooks.

What size pipe should I have between the enclosures that are purged in series ?

Expo Technologies
The pipe should be a minimum of 1 ?" ID when using a size 1 purge unit. The bigger the ID of the pipe the better it is for creating the proper flow.

Can I connect the regulator to any size pipe I choose?

Frequently Asked Questions - Fisher Regulators
Regulator body size should never be larger than the pipe size. In many cases, the regulator body is one size smaller than the pipe size.
