Pipe Connection and Construction Technology
CommonconnectionmethdsforEspirallenwoundstructurewallpesTypeA(spiralywoundpipes)incudeelectrofusionweldingtape conectionattdiiartt pipes,electrofusion welding tapeandheatshrink tapeconnectionsareoftenused.Generallyforsmal-diameterpipes ( \mathsf { D N } < 5 0 0 ) ,heatshrink tapeconnection iscommonlyapplied,and for pipeswith DN \scriptstyle 1 >=slant 5 0 0 ,electrofusionwelding tapeconnectionisadopted.
Electrofusion Welding Tape Connection
1.WorkingPrincipleofConnection
The best connection for PE pipes is achieved by heating and melting thesame PE materials to create homogeneous jointing.The electrofusion welding tape connection is designed based on this principle.The working principle of electrofusion weldingtape connection is to energize the electrothermal elements pre-embedded in the connector,making them heatand meltto connect the pipes together.
2.Construction of Electrofusion Welding Tapes
Specialelectrofusionweldingmachinesandother auxiliary tools are used for the construction of electrofusion welding tapes.
3.1Preparethetoolsforconnection.
3.2 Check whether the pipes and welding tapes are damaged.
3.3 Remove impurities and align the pipes: a. Clean the impurities,and water vapor on the outer surface of the pipes to be connected and the inner wall of the welding tapes. b.Align the pipes horizontally.
3.4Fasten the welding tape: a. Wrap the connecting part of the pipes tightly with the welding tape,ensure the connection end wrapped inside the circle,and insert PE rods from both sides to fill the gaps at the ends of the welding tape. b.Wrap the welding tape with the steel buckle strap and tighten it securely with clamps to make the tapeclosely adhere to the pipe wall.The edges of the steel buckle strap should be aligned with those of the welding tape.
3.5 Fusion welding: Connect the clips at the output end of the electrofusionweldingmachineto theconnection head ofthe welding tape; set the time and voltage on the electrofusion welding machine,and perform the fusion welding according to the operating procedures.When the fusion welding is completed, remove the connection lineclipsand tighten theclamps byabout 1/2 turn.
3.6 Cooling:After the fusion welding is completed, the power supply isautomatically disconnected forcooling.The cooling time is generally about 20 minutes in summer and about10 minutes in winter.Do not use water for cooling. During cooling, the fusion welding of the next joint can be carried out.After cooling,open the steel buckle strap and observe the fusion welding condition.
3.7 When using organic solvents to remove impurities,care should be taken to avoid injuring the skin,and fire prevention should also benoted.
3.8 Ensure that flammable substances are kept away from heating devices to prevent fires.
3.9 It is not advisable to carry out fusion welding in rainy,snowy or wet environments.
3.10 Pay special attention to whether there are impurities,and moisture on the pipe connectingpartsand the electrofusion welding tapes.If so,they should be cleaned up before fusion welding.

3.Connection of Heat Shrink Tapes
(1)Thoroughly clean the moisture,sediment,and other impurities at the connection ends,and roughen the surface ofthe connection endswitha wire brush.Align the connection ends of the two pipes.(Requirement: The end face of the pipe should be perpendicular to the pipe axis.If the deviation is too large,it can be cut and trimmed.The maximum misalignment of the two end faces should not exceed 5mm,the maximum gap should not exceed 1 0 \mathsf {mm } and the height from the bottom should not be less than 2 5 0 \mathsf {mm } , )
(3)Heat the shrink tape evenly from the center to both sides until it conforms to the surface contour of the pipe and there ismoltenadhesive overflowing from both sides.
(2) Ignite the gas and adjust the gas valve to make the flame turn pure blue.Uniformly preheat the connection ends of the pipes to be connected (the distance between the spray gun and the pipe is preferablyabout 1 0 0 \mathsf {mm } untilthey feel hot(about 7 0 ^ { \circ } { C } )
(4) Cool thoroughly,and the connection is completed. (Reference cooling time:30 minutes in summer and 20 minutes in winter)
