CPVC Power Pipes have several advantages that make them an ideal choice for the laying and protection of electrical wires and cables in power systems. Here are the top five advantages of CPVC Power Pipes:
-
Thermal Resistance: CPVC Power Pipes can be used continuously at higher temperatures compared to traditional UPVC materials. They can withstand temperatures above 93°C without deformation and maintain adequate strength, offering a 15°C increase in heat resistance.
-
Corrosion Resistance: The CPVC material is highly resistant to a variety of chemicals, including acids and bases, providing long-term and reliable protection for electrical wires and cables in corrosive environments.
-
Insulation Properties: With excellent insulating capabilities, CPVC Power Pipes can withstand voltages over 30,000 volts. This effectively prevents electrical leakage and protects the wires and cables from interference by external environments.
-
High Compression Strength: CPVC Power Pipes, through material modification, have a high ring stiffness, typically exceeding 10kPa, which is much higher than the national standards for the ring stiffness of buried plastic pipes. This makes them suitable for underground laying and capable of withstanding the load of soil and the ground.
-
Flame Retardancy: CPVC Power Pipes exhibit good flame retardancy, extinguishing upon contact with fire, which does not contribute to the spread of flames, enhancing the safety of the power system. Especially the PVC-C material, with its higher chlorine content, has even better flame retardancy and smoke density indices.
In addition to these advantages, CPVC Power Pipes also have other benefits such as high impact resistance, easy installation, long service life (up to 50 years or more), light weight, and straightforward methods of construction and laying. These characteristics have led to their widespread application in electrical engineering projects.
