Flame RetardantPolypropyleneThe +GF+ Fuseal flame retardantpolypropylene compound yields acombination of high chemical resis-tance, toughness and high strength atelevated temperatures.

Excellent Corrosion, Chemicaland Environment Resistance+GF+ Fuseal is resistant to the corro-sive action of alkalis, alcohols, acids,solvents and salt solutions. Dilute min-eral acids and aqueous solutions ofacid salts, which are so destructive tomost metals, have no affect on the+GF+ Fuseal system. In general, +GF+Fuseal is attacked only by strong oxi-dizing acids and weakened by cer-tain organic solvents and chlorinatedhydrocarbons. +GF+ Fuseal will notrust, pit, scale, corrode or be affectedby electrolysis.

In above ground installations, the pig-mentation protects the system fromsunlight. The pigmentation is highlyresistant to ultraviolet radiation and isheat-stabilized to provide long lifewhile handling hot reagents.

Applications+GF+ Fuseal’s excellent chemical andphysical properties make the systemideal for handling corrosive chemicalwaste solutions present in laboratoryand industrial DWV applications.+GF+ Fuseal is suitable for use inchemical and industrial plants as wellas in hospital and university laborato-ries where mixtures of acids, basesand solvents are drained.

‡ Fuseal Offers:

• Electrofusion andMechanical JointSystem

• Handles corrosivedrainage fluids up to212°F (100°C) inter-mittently

• High chemical andcorrosion resistance

• Flame retardantPolypropylene

• Highly reliable,multiple fusion tech-nologies that offer themost innovative andadvanced in theindustry

Improved ‡ FusealFusion CollarThe +GF+ Fuseal Process has beenimproved through the development ofthe +GF+ Fuseal fusion collar. Thenew fusion collar provides the samejoint as the original +GF+ Fuseal coil,however, it can be made in less time.The many improved benefits include:• Fast positive electrical connection

with a duplex clear plug• Simple insertion of pipe without coil

removal• Elimination of socket sanding• Elimination of the temporary band

clamp — clamps are provided withfusion collars for sizes 1 1/2"–3"

• Rotation of fusion collar allowsexact positioning of the duplex plug

• Ability to dry fit an entire systemprior to fusion

The Perfect UnionAn engineer or contractor cancombine the benefits of the +GF+Fuseal electro-fusion joint and themechanical joint in a single system.+GF+ Fuseal can be used ininaccessible areas and the +GF+Fuseal mechanical joint works wellunder bench where speed ofinstallation or future disassembly isneeded.

The same MSA 250SE or MSA250EX machine can be used to fusethe +GF+ PPro-Seal Natural Polypro-pylene Piping System and the Fuseal25/50 PVDF System. +GF+ PPro-Sealis a pressure system (up to 150 psi,10 bar) which can handle basicallythe same fluids as +GF+ Fuseal.

The +GF+ Fuseal 25/50 PVDFSystem offers pipe and fittings thatcan not only handle high temperatures(up to 280° F) and a wide range ofchemicals, but is also flame retardantand does not generate smoke.

‡ Fuseal IIMechanical JointMake fast, leakproof joints in twoeasy steps. Slide the nut, grab ringand seal ring on the pipe. Insert thepipe into the socket and tighten 1/2turn past hand tight. That’s it!As the nut is tightened, the grab ringgrips and cuts a retaining groove inthe pipe. Further tightening seals thepolypropylene ring to ensure a leak-proof joint.

This simple method of joining cutsinstallation time in half and requiresno hot water, electricity, or pipegrooving.

MSA 250SE / MSA 250EXThe MSA 250SE and the MSA250EX represent the most ad-vanced fusion technology in theindustry, featuring advanced trans-former technology. This unit can beused to join all George FischerSloane polypropylene products,including Fuseal II, Fuseal Squared,PPro-Seal, and Fuseal 25/50 PVDF.The MSA 250 can run on bothnetwork (110v/60Hz) and genera-tor power sources.

All required fusion parameters areprogrammed into the MSA 250 bysimply scanning a barcode specificto each fitting. Barcodes also pro-vide the capability to perform pro-gram updates for new products inthe field.

The MSA 250 has multiple jointcapability as well as a built-in fail-safe mode.

Double Containment Systemfor Optimum ProtectionFor optimum protection of the environ-ment the +GF+ Fuseal System can becombined with the unique +GF+Contain-It Double Containment Sys-tem. Due to its split fittings and pipe,the clear PVC system can be installedeven after the +GF+ Fuseal System istested.

Fuseal II products are all manufacturedof polypropylene, a material that isknown to have wide acceptance as asuperior thermoplastic material forhandling harsh, corrosive fluids.

Because of the chemical resistance,solvent cementing is not an option forthis heavy duty material. Thus, GeorgeFischer engineers developed a coilfusion process to easily and effectivelyjoin these systems.

Following are brief descriptions of thefeatures of these systems.

Fuseal IIFuseal II is available in sizes 11/2" - 12".It handles temperatures up to 180°F.

Fuseal II is resistant to the corrosiveaction of alkalies, alcohols, acids,solvents and salt solutions. Dilute mineralacids and aqueous solutions of acidsalts, which are so destructive to mostmetals, have no effect on the Fuseal IIsystem.

In general, Fuseal II is attacked only bystrong oxidizing acids and weakened bycertain organic solvents and chlorinatedhydrocarbons. Fuseal II will not rust, pit,scale, corrode or be affected by elec-trolysis.

In above ground installations the pig-mentation is highly resistant to ultra-violet radiation and is heat-stabilized to

provide long life while handling hotreagents.

The Fuseal II flame retardant polypropy-lene compound yields a combination ofhigh chemical resistance, toughness andhigh strength at elevated temperatures.

Fuseal II's excellent chemical andphysical properties make the systemideal for use in chemical and industrialplants as well as hospital and universitylaboratories. In fact, all major pharma-ceutical and universities have Fusealinstallations currently installed.

The following features make Fuseal IIfaster and easier to install than ouroriginal Fuseal piping system.

• Fast electrical connection with theduplex plug.

• Fusion collar stays on fitting—pipeinserts easily without the extra step ofremoving the coil and placing it onthe pipe.

• Plastic clamps are provided with 11/2"through 3" fusion collars. Metal bandclamps are available for 4"–12"fittings. Both styles of clamps allowfor dry-fitting of the entire systemprior to fusing.

• Fusion collar is rotatable to allowexact positioning of the duplex plug.

• Band clamps on each socket allowdry fit of entire system before fusion.

Fuseal LDFuseal LD is our large diameter Fusealpiping system. This is available in 8", 10"and 12" sizes and it utilizes our originalfusion process. Also made of flameresistant polypropylene, Fuseal LD offersall the basic system benefits of Fuseal II.

Fuseal MJFuseal MJ is our mechanical joint system.It is available in sizes 11/2" - 4". Thissystem is also made of the same flameretardant material as our Fuseal IIsystem, however, there is no fusionprocess. The joints are mechanicallyjoined for a nonpermanent joint in easilyaccessible locations, such as under sinks.

Fuseal Installation andEngineering Data

Thermal Expansion

CompensationTemperature changes in waste systemsdepend on the quantity and temperatureof the liquid waste discharged into thesystem. In general, the quantities ofwastes discharged through wastesystems in laboratories in educationalinstitutions will be relatively small (a fewgallons at a time), while industriallaboratories and processing systemsmay discharge large quantities of veryhot or very cold water.

Because polypropylene piping is not thebest conductor of heat, low volumedischarges will not raise the piping tothe temperature of the wastes, hence,the thermal induced length changes ingeneral will be less than expected. Highvolumes of wastes which take longer toflow through the piping will bring thesystem up to or close to the temperatureof the wastes.

Waste pipe also is subject to ambienttemperature changes. These changeswill be more pronounced during theconstruction period and generally willbe negligible after the laboratory isoccupied due to control of building

temperature and to the piping beingenclosed within wall and ceiling spaces.

Buried piping or piping in the crawlspaces under a building is subject to lessthan ambient temperatures and to thepiping being enclosed within wall andceiling spaces.

There are three methods of controlling orcompensating for thermal expansion ofFuseal corrosive waste systems:1 .) taking advantage of offsets andchanges of direction in the piping;2.) vertical expansion joint assemblies;3.) restraint of the system.

OffsetsMost waste systems have many shortruns of pipe with frequent changes indirection. Advantage may be taken ofthe changes in direction by allowingthermally induced length changes to betaken up in movement of the pipebeyond the bends.

Expansion loop and offset lengths, whichare dependent on pipe diameter, maybe obtained from the charts in twopages.

In areas of the system where this methodis used, support but do not rigidlyrestrain the piping at branches orchanges of direction. Do not anchor thepipe rigidly in walls. Holes through thestructure must allow for free movement.Figure A indicates the recommendedexpansion loop and offset configurationto be used with the charts on page 7.15dimensions.

Linear expansion may be determinedfrom the chart on page 7.14, which isindependent of pipe diameter.

‡ Fuseal IIRestraint

Restraint is rigidly anchoring the piperuns to the building structure at appro-priate places so that thermally induceddimension changes will be replaced bythermally induced stresses. This can beaccomplished by use of adequatelystrong clamps or supports to hold thepipe in place. The appended Table 4shows the forces to be resisted. Forhorizontal runs, braced clamp typehangers may be used. For floor penetra-tions, extension riser clamps may beused.

Underground installation in properlybackfilled trenches may be considered

to be a restrained system and notsubject to thermally induced dimensionalchanges.

It should be noted that two unusualproperties of polypropylene make forthe success of these methods of handlingthermal expansion. Polypropylene is notsubject to stress cracking. It can bestressed for long periods of time in whatmight be considered unfriendly environ-ments without harm. In addition,nolypropylene has an extremely highfatigue life. Its “self-hinge” characteristicsare well known and the piping materialswill stand repeated drastic flexureswithout harm.

Testing MethodsThe following are common laboratorytests conducted on small samples ofplastic material and are useful incharacterizing and comparing differentplastics. However, these tests are of onlylimited use in predicting the behavior ofthe materials in real fire situations.

A. ASTM D 635 - Rate of Burning and/or Extent and Time of Burning of SelfSupporting Plastics in a HorizontalPosition.

One half inch wide by five inch longhorizontal specimens are exposed toa bunsen burner flame. The time ofburning and distance burned arerecorded. The results are reported asmeasured, except that the minimumtime of burning is reported as "lessthan five seconds" and the minimumextent of burning is reported as "lessthan five millimeters."

B. UL 94 - One half inch wide by fiveinch long vertical specimens areexposed repeatedly to a bunsenburner flame. Time of burning, pos-sible dripping of burning particlesand after glow are observed. Resultsare reported as V-0, V-1 or V-2,depending on test results.

C. ASTM D 2843 - Density of Smokefrom the Burning or Decomposition ofPlastics.

A one quarter inch by one inch by

one inch sample is exposed propaneburner flame and light transmissionthrough the smo} generated by theburning plastic is measured with astandard lamp and photocell for fourminutes. Results are reported as lightabsorption and smoke density.

D. ASTM D 2863 - Minimum OxygenConcentration to Support Candle-Like Combustion of Plastics (OxygenIndex).

A one eighth inch by one quarter inchby three to six inch long specimen isburned in a variable oxygen-nitrogenmixture to determine the percentageoxygen required to maintain combus-tion.

2. Large Scale Tests - These tests are runon full sized wall or floor (floor-ceiling) assemblies or on largematerial specimens. They are in-tended to determine the response ofvarying construction methods andmaterials to actual fire conditions.

A. ASTM E 119 - Fire Tests of BuildingConstruction and Materials.NFPA 251UL 263UBC 43-1

Wall sections of at least 100 squarefeet in size are attached as the frontwall of a furnace and exposed to aflaming environment, the temperatureof which rises according to a stan-dard time temperature curve. The testspecimen may or may not be exposto vertical or horizontal loads. Thespecimen, after exposure ma besubjected to a high pressure hosestream to determine its integrity afterexposure.

This test is universally accepted as themethod of rating wall assemblies forfire resistance as related to time ofexposure. Ratings may be 1, 2, 3 or 4hours, depending on the time for thetemperature to rise to not more than250°F above its initial temperature onthe non-exposed face. Floor andfloor-ceiling assemblies of at least180 square feet in size are alsotested per E 119 as the roofs of afloor-ceiling furnace, and rated onthe basis of the time for the tempera-ture to rise 250°F above the initial

Plastic Piping and Fire

Increasingly, fire protection officials andcode officials are becoming sensitive tothe fire characteristics of plastic materi-als used in building construction andplastic piping is naturally included inthese concerns. To satisfy the fire safetyrequirements set out by the authorities,the engineer and the architect must havea better understanding of the plasticsused in piping, appropriate test methodsand means of protection against firedanger attributable to plastic piping.

To put this into the proper perspective,the architect, engineer and administra-tive authority must realize that, in thevast majority of cases, fires start inoccupied areas of a building, not withinthe walls.

B. ASTM E 814 - Fire Tests of Through-Penetration Fire Stops.

This test method (published Spring1982) is essentially identica] the E119 test except that it is intended todetermine the ability fire stoppingmethods and devices to maintain thefire rating (integrity) of rated fireresistive walls, floors or floor-ceilingassemblies which are penetrated bypipe, conduits or cables. 0, the years,plastic piping has shown to be botha durable material and capable ofplaying its part in fire containment.

C. ASTM E 84 - Surface Burning Charac-teristics of Building Materials.NFPA 255UL 723UBC 42-1

As stated, this test is intended fortesting of surface finish materialswhich are capable of supportingthemselves or of being supportedother than by support on the under-side of the test specimen. Samplesare 20 inches (min.) wide by 24 feetlong and are attached to the roof ofan 18 inch by 30 foot furnace.

Burning characteristics of the samplesare stated as percentage of the rateof burning of red oak.

This test, being specifically aimed attesting surface finish materials, isrecognized as not applying to plasticpipe by those who understand thetest method. The National FireProtection Association has stated thatthe test is not to be applied to plasticpipe and that the pipe should betested as a component of a wall orfloor assembly in the E 119 test.

Protection Methods

Fuseal Waste and Vent Piping1 . For through the wall penetration,

three methods have been used.

A. A thin, close fitting sheet metalsleeve covering the pipe continuouslyfor a 10 inch to 18 inch projection ofeach side of the wall.

B. A 36 inch length of glass or highsilicon iron pipe through the wall.

C. A one inch thick high temperaturemagnesia pipe insulation for five feetof developed length on each side ofthe wall or floor penetration.

Method "A" has been tested in bothCanada and Sweden, but not byASTM E 119. This method has beenapproved by some states. Methods"B" and "C" have not been tested buthave been assumed to work andhave been approved by some states.

2. For piping contained in one hourwood stud, gypsum wall boarrcovered walls and with trap armspenetrating the wall facing, tests atthe University of California and theOhio State University have shownthree ways of maintaining the fireintegrity of the walls.

A. The stud space is packed with mineralwool insulation from floor level to fourfeet above the floor. This methodfurnishes protection for walls contain-ing PVC-DWV and flame retardantpolypropylene (FRPP) corrosive wastepiping.

B. A galvanized iron plate measuring 16inches by 26 inches with a tight fittinghole 4 inches from the bottom edge isplaced around the trap arm on thestuds on both sides of the wall. Thismethod furnishes protection for ABS,PVC and Fuseal DWV.

C. Completely backpacking the spacearound the penetrating pipe throughthe gypsum wall board. This methodwas shown to work in ABS and PVC-DWV installations where the penetra-tions were in the stud spacing next tothe one containing the vertical piping.

Pipe & Fitting Inspection & Storage

Pipe & fittings should be inspected upon arrival for obvious shipping damage.Store pipe and fittings in a dry location, protected from direct sunlight. If material is to be stored outside, it should to be covered with a light colored tarp to be kept dry and protected from UV damage.Pipe should be laid on a flat surface to prevent warping.

63


Installation Environment

Material and fusion machine must be the same temperature prior to fusion. This can be achieved when components and machine are in the sameenvironment for 2 hours.

As with all plastic piping systems, thermal expansion should be consideredand incorporated into the design (use of expansion loops for example).

64


Cut pipe end square with axis of pipe!Use a fine tooth hand saw and miter box, a power cutoff saw with blade for plastic or a wheel type pipe cutter for plastic. **Ratchet Type pipe cutters are

not recommended

Regardless of tool, pipe needs to remain round and square.

Chamfer the pipe end to ease insertion of the pipe and to prevent the fusion coil from being damaged.

9. The fusion collar must be fully seated on the hub of the fittingsocket.This can be easily checked visually if there is a gap between the fusion collar and the fitting. Tap the fusion collar carefully on the top, for example with a channel lock pliers, if it’s not fully seated in the fitting!

A mark can beapplied to thebottom of thecollar to verifyproper seating.

The gap is not visible on 6″fusion collars with steal bandclamps so the mark is required.

69


Tighten the clamp. Proper clamp tightness will result when the pipe can not be easily rotated in the fitting socket.

Use a channel lock #440 for1½″-3″ plastic clamps and a channel lock #460 for 4″ plastic clamps.

Note: Clamp does not prevent pipe from being pulled out during handling.

14.For 6″ only: Tighten the steel band clamp approximately one full turn.

73


End of the Installation

Allow the joint to cool to the touch before testing.


The plastic clamps for 1½″- 4″ can stay on the fittings. If you must remove them, wait for the joint to cool and remove with caution as the clamp is under pressure and may fracture.

The steel band clamp on the 6″ fittings can be removed after a cooling time of 10 minutes.

Testing

Joints may be pressure tested 10 minutes after completion of fusion. Test in accordance with local plumbing codes. All selections of the system can be tested with up to 30 feet head of water.

It is a good plumbing practice to test a small section (20 fittings) of the fused piping system first, to ensure proper installation procedures are being performed before continuing with the completion of the system.

To re-fuse a leaking joint, drain any liquid from the area surrounding the joint and allow it to dry, then repeat steps 10 through 15, using a new plastic clamp for sizes 1½″ through 4″. If this does not fix the leak, it is recommended that you cut out the leaking joint and replace. Multiple re-fusions are not recommended.

Fuseal® MJ Installation Instructions

1 Lubricate threads of fitting with a silicone based lubricant such as Dow Corning 111.

2 Slide nut and grabber ring over pipe, with tapered side of grabber ring facing the nut.

3 Slide o-ring over pipe, approx. ¾” from end.

4 Insert pipe into socket bottom, then slide grabber ring against o-ring.

5 Tighten nut by hand, then with our spanner wrench (P/N 8100 for 1½”-2”, P/N 8101 for 3”-4”) until joint is securely tightened. This is achieved when the spanner wrench “pops” off the nut ridges.

Electrofusion Process

Socket

Pipe

Schematic The electrofusion process of joining a pipe to a socket uses wires to transfer the heat energy to the plastic material.

The heat energy is sufficient to melt the plastic surrounding the wires. This generates a zone called the “melt zone”.

This “melt zone” encapsulates the wires, which are at its origin along the center line.

The picture to the left shows the heat distribution in the “melt zone”region.
