Geberit HDPE jointing methods Overview
The many Geberit jointing methods offer solutions for all situations.
Butt weld Electroweld sleeve coupling
Ring-seal socket Screw-threaded joint
Linear expansion socket
Flange joint Contraction sleeve Coupling for PE-Silentand adaptor only
These connections have different properties, and are therefore classified according to the way inwhich they are assembled as follows:
a) To be openedJointing methods which can be disconnected after assembly.
b) Not to be openedJointing methods which cannot be disconnected after assembly.
c) Tension-resistantConnections which withstand tensional forces.
d) Non-tension-resistantConnections which cannot withstand tensional forces.

Use
Welding is the easiest jointing method, providing the many advantageous bene-fits of prefabrication; HDPE needs no other component in order to be welded.
It can be used in all circumstances where prefabrication is used on site or in theworkshop.
The essential conditions for a perfect weld are:
• Cleanliness of the welding plate and the parts which are to be welded.
• A correct welding plate temperature.
• The correct pressure for jointing the parts.
• The parts to be welded must be cut square <) 90°.
Butt welding takes up little space. The edge of the weld does not obstruct thepipe, leaving its internal cross-section virtually unchanged. Even quite complica-ted distribution parts can be assembled in a small space, without wastage ofmaterial, because lengths of pipe or elbow sections can be easily reusedthrough butt welding.
The allowance for butt welds is approx. as big as the wall thickness of the pipe.

Connection properties
b) not to be openedc) tension-resistant
Use
On-site welding, conversion, additional installations, repairs. The small outsidediameter provides a great advantage.
Conventional assembly, on the nesting principle, made for easy use. The jointobtained is simple, quick and reliable.
The heating and melting zone is divided into two fields, as there are no electricalresistances in the centre of the sleeve. This provides a very satisfactory safetyfactor.
Also the ends of the pipes are not heated, the zones remain effectively cold,and provide further reinforcement, thus cancelling out shrinkage of the pipe.
The pressure required for welding is obtained from the shrinking effect of thesleeve when it is heated, and is evenly distributed over the entire weld. Thisshrinkage has a compensating effect on pipe diameter measurement toleran-ces.
The electrical resistance wires will not corrode. Once the weld has been madethey are entirely covered by PE.
The use of original Geberit equipement, especially tempered Geberit HDPEpipes, are recommended for correct welding.
Electrical sleeves can be made to slide by removing the central stop ring, thusmaking system conversion and repair work easier.

Assembly instructions are the same for both ring-seal sockets and screw-threadedjoints, the sleeve lengths are the same for corresponding diameters. The effective sleeve length, i. e. the measurement – X – from the O-ring to the base of the socketgoverns the maximum length of pipe which can be connected by individual joints.
For HDPE approximately 15 mm of spigot should be allowed for every 1 m of pipe.
The pipe must be fully inserted into the socket, because the socket does not act as an expander. Owing to the pipe thickness and the low thermal conductivity of HDPE, thesocket seal has very satisfactory resistance to heat and no shrinkage of the O-ringoccurs. The O-ring has a round seat regardless of pipe movements. The O-ring remains fixed inthe seat and is always in contact with the pipe.
Protection cap
Length «X» varies with the diameter Ideal fitting is obtained by chamfering the pipeend to approximately 15°, lubricating it withsoft soap, Silicone or Vaseline. Do not usemineral oil or grease which can damage therubber seal.

Use
Wherever there is the possibility that a pipe can be pulled out of a screw-threa-ded joint by axial tensile forces a flange bushing must be used to ensure thatthe connection will resist these forces. It is also recommended that a screw-threaded joint with flange bushing should be used when installing in floors orslabs, where the length of pipe between two connections (elbows, branches orsleeves) is longer than 2 metres.

Expansion socket
Available from ∅ 32 to 315 mm.
Connection properties
b) not to be openedd) non-tension-resistant
Use
An expansion socket is recommended between anchor brackets, particularly oninstallations assembled with rigid joints and where excessive thermal movementis anticipated. At least one expansion joint must be provided on vertical stacks running fromfloor to floor, long collector pipelines and before connecting to the buried drainpipework.
Different conditions apply for underground installations. For this application fieldsee page 48.
Installation
Can be used either vertically or horizontally. One advantage is the depth of thesleeve which makes the assembly of downpipes and mains easier, allowingboth vertical and horizontal corrections (e.g. in level, and in the precise positio-ning of the direction of branches and elbows).
A firm anchor bracket must always be located behind the expansion socket toavoid any movement of the socket in the event of expansion or contraction.
The special shape of the seal allows the pipe to slide within the socket duringexpansion and contraction, ensuring that the connection remains perfectlywatertight even under heavy hydraulic load.
Horizontal assembly (e.g. at 20°C)
Example: Insertion depth in an ambient temperature of 20°C(Vertical assembly).
The following conditions are important to ensure perfect and easy assembly ofthe sleeve:
1. Chamfering the inserted pipe end to approximate <) 15°.
2. Check the scale on the outer surface of the expansion socket for insertion depth.
3. Mark the correct insertion depth on the pipe.
4. Lubricate the pipe end well with soft soap, Silicone or Vaseline.N.B. Do not use oil or grease which can damage the rubber seal.
For more information see pages 22, 28, 43.
A special expansion socket with stainless steel protection for the rubber sealcan be used for heavy duty industrial and laboratory applications.

Embedded fixed points
Principal: Any variation in length must be prevented by embedded fixed points in concrete (e. g. electroweld sleeve couplings,branches, bends or collar bushes) or by the provision of corresponding fixed point structures.
B Embedding in concrete
Basically Geberit HDPE material absorbs within itself thermal movement due toits high elasticity. However, in the case of large diameters (e.g. 315 mm) the forces «P» (resultingfrom expansion and contraction) are considerable. They must be absorbed by the embedded fixpoints alone, since cement/concrete will not adhere toHDPE pipework.
Since the fitting has to act as a fixpoint, do not insulate it.
Under no circumstances should a ring seal or expansionsocket be embedded in concrete.
Reduced small branches of large pipe diameters must be securedby an additional anchor point (electroweld sleeve couplings orcollar bushes) to prevent shearingoff of the branch.

Underground drainage pipes of Geberit HDPE
Not only has Geberit HDPE provenitself excellently for many years fordrainage systems inside of buildingssuch as:– soil and waste stacks– vent pipes– connection and branch pipes– collector pipes
but it is also suitable for under-ground applications as:– ground pipes– domestic drainage pipes
Criteria for underground drainage pipes
1. Tightness
Environmental protection regulations do not permit leaking drainagepipes.
Geberit HDPE is a reliable water drainage system which assures maximum dependability with regardto tightness.
2. Resistance to chemicals
Geberit HDPE provides the assu-rance of universal resistanceto the greatly diversified types ofchemical attack by the disposalwater, as well as by external factors(acidic soils).
3. Flexibility
Geberit HDPE is a flexible, operatio-nally reliable drainage system, evenin soils in which a certain degree of settling of ground must be anti-cipated.
4. Resistance to frost
Geberit HDPE has proven itself excellently for many years in frost endangered soils such as in Scandinavia. It can be used in tem-peratures ranging down to –40°.
5. Material
As in domestic drainage systems,the quality of the material is themain criterion for underground
applications. In addition to theattack from the inside, the pipesare also subjected to attacks fromoutside. Geberit HDPE excellentlystands up to all these requirements.
1 Ground acids 2 Stray currents3 Disposal water (with chemical
and thermal attack)4 No enter of roots
6. Friendly to the environmentThe Geberit HDPE drainage systemscomply with environmental regulations.

Guidelines for laying drainage pipes
TrenchThe trench is to be dugas narrow as possible –but not narrower than thepipe diameter + 40 cm.The floor of the trenchmust be level and freefrom rocks and looseclumps. Correct elevationand slope are also impor-tant.
1 B = Bedding Under normal soil condi-tions the trench is provi-ded with a bedding layerof round gravel (gradingup to 30 mm) or of bro-ken material (grading upto 10 mm) of a thicknessof approx. 100 mm. Thebedding layer must becompacted and tamped.In certain cases it will beneccessary to reinforcethe ground.
2 U = Underpinning After the pipe has beenlaid, recesses are to beprovided for sockets andflanges so that the pipe issupported along its entirelength. The underpinning isto be done with a tampingpost or the like. It must bedone very carefully. If seve-ral pipes are laid, makesure that the lowest one isfully covered before theone above is placed. Thepipe must lay flat, and itmust be installed with thecorrect slope.
3 C = Consolidation layer The material is to be filledin layers of approx. 100mm thickness. Tampingcan be done by stampingwith the feet, or with aspecial tool. The purposeof this material is to helpprevent the pipe fromdeforming, so that it mustbe compacted well onboth sides at the sametime .

2
P = Protective layer Now fill in a layer of thesame material (must notcontain rocks whichcould cause point loadingof the pipe) of at least300 cm. Attention: To prevent thepipe from rising thetrench is to be finish-filledon the same day up toand including the protec-tion layer.
5 HS = Safety marginheight For the further filling the available material is to beused. The trench must notcontain rocks which can-not be lifted by hand.As soon as permitted by the safety margin height, this compacting can be done by machine. Theregulations and byelawson the refilling of trenchesare to be observed.
6 Distribution of ground pressureThe ground pressure and ground load distribution are gover-ned essentially by thecompaction. For calcu-lation the appropriatestandards and the local building and safety regulations are to beobserved.

Please note:The scale found on the outer surface of the socket does not apply in the case of undergroundinstallations.
Underground installation ofGeberit expansion sockets
In addition to the butt-welded and electrically welded connection, the expansion socket is an idealconnection in underground draina-ge systems. Since in such systems lower temperature differences areusually encountered than in stacks and connector pipes, smaller length variations can be accounted for.
For this reason in underground installations the distance betweenexpansion sockets can be longer.
The values arev calculated accor-ding to the formula

With regard to the ground line between the building wall and the street sewer, where extreme settling can occur, an installation mat must be wrapped around the ground line to act as a deflection leg.
In such cases Geberit HDPE is an ideal material, since it assures tightness and at the same time provides maximum flexibility.
Deflection leg The length of the deflection leg is dependent upon the expected settling and on the pipe diameter.
Length DL = 10 · |/ ∆ S · ∅

Access pipe with oval access cover
Plastic pipes should only be connected with manholes bymeans of a special manhole sleeve. Since settling of ground has to beexpected such a sleeve must have the same ideal characteristics as Geberit HDPE: it must assure tightness and at the same time fle-xibility.
A rubber ring provides the flexibleseal between sleeve and plasticpipe.

Drainage requirements for bridges
Traffic safety/Maintenance
Geberit HDPE also meets the special requirements for all types ofbridges. The pipes and the widerange of fittings provide an easydesign and execution at the cons-truction site. The smooth walledpipes make a trouble-free mainte-nance and service possible, whereby all modern cleaning equip-ment can be used.
Heating tape
Where the bridge crosses a river, railway or another road, an absolu-tely watertight system is essential. In accordance with the anti-pollutionlaws, protection must be maintained in the event of an accident.

Drainage of bridgesInstallation indications
Laid in concrete
Piping embedded in the bridgestructure can never be replaced. Itis therefore essential that a drainagematerial which offers the greatestsecurity is used. When choosingthis material, the consolidation ofthe concrete, temperature varia-tions, contraction and creep, as wellas the prestressing of the bridgemust be taken into consideration.
Thermal movement
The following points must be obser-ved
– Location of supports or piles
– Horizontal movement of
the bridge on the supports
– Deflection of the bridge
– Swaying of the bridge
– The watertightness of the expan-sion socket (example 1)
In the case of example 2 an expan-sion funnel is required to absorb thelateral movements.
Fixing
The spacing of the guide bracketsfor HDPE piping is 1,5 m and maynot be exceeded. With all plasticpiping, the pipe bracket should havea minimum width of 60 mm, inorder that the stresses due to theweight of the filled pipe is well distributed.

Low pressure installation
Low pressure application
Discharge pipeline of a pump set
Generally the Geberit HDPE product range is designed for water drainagesystems. For the low pressure range, e. g. swimming pool, pipework through circulationpumps, Geberit has established maximum admissible stressing values for anendurance life of 10 years.
Pressure max. 1,5 bar
Temperature max. 30°C
Longterm rupture strength 10 years
All connections must be butt weld joints, electroweld sleeve couplings or flange joints.
Suitable fitting range for low pressure application see page 4.
The Geberit HDPE range of products can also be used for the discharge pipeline of a pump set, provided that the mechanical stress is low, only of shorttime and no thermal loaded medium (e.g. warm water) is pumped.
When designing discharge pipelines for drainage pumps the following importantpoints should be observed:
1. The discharge pipeline has to be installed higher than the lowest installedappliance by means of a pipe loop.
2. If the flow rate is smaller than 5 l/s the vertical fall section of the pipe loophas to be increased.
3. If the flow rate is above 5 l/s the vertical stack has to be vented with aventilation pipe of at least 50 mm inside diameter.
4. Long horizontal collector pipes have to be vented. The minimal inner diameter of the vent pipe must be 57 mm or 2 dimensions smaller thanthe discharge pipe.The ventilation pipe must be higher than the total delivery head of thepump and must go above the roof.

Permitted external pressures
Geberit HDPE pipes will withstand external pressures according to the tablebelow depending on the pipe diameter.
The maximum level of the groundwater table has to be taken into account whendesigning Geberit HDPE pipelines in a groundwater area.
Internal negative pressures Geberit HDPE pipes will withstand internal negative pressure according to thetable above depending on the pipe diameter.
Geberit HDPE pipes are sometimes used as suction pipelines for pumpsets. The higher the suction lift is, the higher the negative pressure inside the pipeline.Important with such an installation is that the foot valve and strainer are notblocked. Foot valve and strainer of the suction pipeline should be kept free from debris,possible blockage could lead to additional pressure increase.

Ecological properties of Geberit HDPE
Polyethylene (PE) is a simple compound of carbon and hydrogen atoms, harmless to man, animals and plants.
PE is the perfect material for drainage systems from an ecological point of view. It has a long life span, no toxic gases rises from incineration (e. g. hydrochloric acid HCL from PVC) during disposal. It consumes much smaller quantities of energy during fabrication process and transport than steel, cast iron or cop-per pipes.
60
PE environmental loads relate to the fields of manufacture and disposal. In addition to the raw material crude oil, energy is used for the preparation of the plastic granulate and in the manufacture of the products.

Comments on the individual properties
Geberit High Density Polyethylene HDPE: Density 951 – 955 kg/m3 The density of various polyethylene types can be 910 – 960 kg/m3. The Geberit typeat up to 955 kg/m3, is of the hard quality and has increased durability properties.HDPE is lighter than water, which is beneficial particularly with regard to transportationand installation.
Tempered 10 mm per meter (licence Geberit International AG)The safest way of avoiding the inevitable heat reserves (shortening of dimensions) afterheat load in the plastic pipe, is to take preventative measures during manufacture. Geberit HDPE pipes are therefore stored in hot water baths after manufacture. This process increases the safety of the joints, as there is no chance of joints pullingapart later due to shortening of length.
Resistance to cold When Geberit HDPE parts are filled with water and then freeze, they stretch elasticallyas the ice expands. Once the ice melts, they resume their original shape, remainingcompletely intact and undamaged.
FlexibilityThe flexibility of the piping material can be the main criterion in certain buildings or onbridges, especially when pipes have to pass through expansion joints or are in buildings, which are subject to traffic vibration.
Melt-flow index 0,4 – 0,5 g/10 min. This describes the working properties of the pipe and at the same time gives information on the molecular weight, which is crucial for a number of raw material properties. The smaller the melt-flow index, the higher the molecular weight and thusthe pipe’s resistance to stress corrosion.
Heat conductivity 0,43 W/m · K HDPE is a bad heat conductor; for this reason the pipe does not become completelywarmed through when heat loaded for a short period. Heat loss is about 90% less, for instance, than a similar copper pipe.
62
Comments on the individual properties
Heat expansion 0,17 mm/m · K Heat expansion of HDPE is relatively high. As a rule of thumb, for every 50°C increasein temperature, an expansion of 10 mm of linear meter of pipe can be anticipated.
Resistance to hot water Geberit HDPE can be safely used as waste pipe with no mechanical load, up to 80°C.Temperatures of up to 100°C for short periods (e.g. surges of steam) are permissible.
Resistance to impact Geberit HDPE is unbreakable at room temperature. Its resistance to impact is very high even at extremely low temperatures (down to approx. –40°C) and thus meets the requirements for outlet pipes.
Condensate Geberit HDPE is a poor conductor of heat. No condensate should form during short periods of undercooling.
Resistance to radioactive effluents There is no risk of damage as a result of slightly radioactive water. However, pleaseask the manufacturer for more information relevant to the particular application.
Resistance to abrasion Drainage systems are increasingly becoming hidden refuse chutes. A pipe’s resistanceto abrasion is a particularly important factor in branch pipes, soil stacks and ground pipes. HDPE is highly resistant to abrasion; its extra thick walls offer additional protection.
63
Comments on the individual properties
Non-conductivePlastics have an excellent reputation as insulators in the electronics industry. HDPE cable protection ducts, cast resins, insulating paint etc.
Sealing material Although the chemical resistance of the seal does not equal that of HDPE, there is norisk of the seal being destroyed, because the rubber ring is installed under com-pression on all sides and therefore cannot swell. In addition, the wetting factor of therubber ring in the joint is very low. Many years of experience have shown that the sealing material can endure even the harshest conditions. NB: Such conditions do not occur in drainage pipes. Free halogens (chlorine, bromine etc.) cause halogenised polyethylene and hydrogenhalide to form at room temperature. The halogenised polyethylene has different physical and chemical properties from the original hydrocarbon, but the polymer is not destroyed. Geberit HDPE should therefore not be used at all in areas where free halogens are produced or used. The only criteria to be observed here are the purposefor which the pipe is intended and the concentration of halogens.
Solar radiation Geberit HDPE pipes are protected against ageing and embrittlement caused by UVrays by the addition of approximately 2% soot.
NoiseHDPE is a soft material with a low E-modulus. HDPE limits solid-borne conduction, but airborne noise should be insulated. This can be done by means of the duct wall,HDPE Silent or Geberit Isol.
Chemical resistance Because of its paraffinic structure, Geberit HDPE is highly resistant to chemicals. Its resistance can be summarized briefly as follows: Geberit HDPE is insoluble in all inorganic and organic solutions at 20°C. Geberit HDPE is only soluble in aliphatic andaromatic carbons and their chlorinating products at over 90°C. The material will be attacked by heavily oxidized media (conc. HN03, conc. H2 S04) when exposed overlong periods at room temperature.
Behaviour in fire Plastics are inflammable. However, the classification of plastics according to the usual fire test for construction materials does not permit a valid statement on the behaviourof plastic construction parts in the event of a fire.
64
Comments on the individual properties
Protection against blockages HDPE’s water-repelling properties are highly beneficial in this regard. – Rapid outflow of water – Prevention of deposits
Welding temperature Thermoplasts are processed with a high level of energy efficiency. The temperaturesrequired are relatively low in comparison with metals. The welding temperature for HDPE is approximately 230°C. Simple tools allow for easy processing.
Non-toxic Plastics are well suited for use in the food industry as packaging material, containers,bottles etc. Geberit HDPE pipes are used for milk transportation lines in mountainareas and in the food canning and packing industry.
Scope of use Geberit HDPE pipes are designed for drainage systems. Their use in low-pressureareas (swimming pools, transportation lines etc.) is subject to a maximum pressure load of 15 m Water Column (1,5 bar) and a temperature of 30°C (10 years). There is also a certain range of moulded fittings.
PaintingGeberit HDPE is not suitable for painting. Its water repellent properties and the flexibili-ty of the material both have a negative impact on paint. If painting is unavoidable, thepaint product to be used should be tested for compatibility with the HDPE.
Tightness Many years of experience with welding HDPE-Pipes, have shown that the butt weldsdo not give any problems as the welding parts are circular on the inside and do notadd to the normal risk of blocking.

Manufacturing process ofHDPE pipes

As a result of manufacturing, the molecule chains are stretched and than cooled down from about 230°C to 40°C. This enormous drop in temperature results in tensile stresses which are «frozen in» by the coolingdown process.
When hot water flows through a streched pipe or the pipe is heated up by doing a welding joint, e.g. with an electroweld sleeve coupling, the expanded molecules relax and return to their normal state. The pipe becomes shorter.
Stretched molecules after manufacturing(non tempered pipes)
Without tempering, shortening of dimensions can create gaps between pipeand fitting, pipes can be pulled apart high risk of leakage!

Effects of annealing of Geberit HDPEpipes
Molecules after Geberit annealing process(all Geberit HDPE pipes)
The safest way of avoiding the inevitable heat shortening of dimensions afterheat load in the plastic pipe is to take preventative measures (Tempering)during manufacture. Geberit pipes are therefore stored in a hot water bathafter manufacture, this allows the expanded molecules to relax and return totheir normal state = No stresses on Geberit pipes.
Tempering of Geberit pipes reduces mechanical stress on joints and fixations. Through this process even the high precision requirements forelectroweld sleeve couplings can be met.

The significance of the pH value
One of the most crucial factors in selecting a material for a drainage installationis the chemical loading of the effluent being discharged.
Effluent with a low or a high pH is harmful because of its corrosive effects. E. g. some drain cleaning fluids have a pH value of up to 12.
Therefore in order to select the most suitable material to handle a specificdischarge it is important not only to know the pH value of the effluent but the chemical resistance of the pipe materials. (see Chemical Resistance tables on pages 65 to asses the performance of Geberit HDPE at various temperatures)
The pH value is therefore important in assessing the chemical level as it will indicate whether the effluent is acid, neutral or alkaline. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14 (see table below). PH valve 7 neutral.

Explanation
When the pipe wall material comes into contact with substan-ces flowing through the pipe, different processes can takeplace, such as the absorption of liquid (swelling), the extractionof soluble elements in the material (shrinkage) or chemical reac-tions (hydrolysis, oxidation etc.), which can sometimes causethe properties of the pipes or pipeline parts to change.
The performance of pipes and pipeline parts when in contactwith effluent substances can be classed as follows:
Resistant The pipe wall material is generally regarded as being suitable
Limited resistance The suitability of the pipe wall material must be checked ineach individual case; if necessary, further tests should be carried out.
Not resistant The pipe wall material is generally regarded as being unsuitable.
