Krah pipes are large polyolefin pipes up to an inter-nal diameter of 4000 mm and a maximum solid wall thickness of 200 mm.
The preferred jointing technology is the butt fusion technology, however for low pressure rates the inte-grated electro fusion technology is also acceptable. Nearly any internal and external diameter within the upper mentioned range can be produced, using the Krah spiral cross-winding extrusion process.
Thanks to the unique pipe production machine de-veloped by Krah, even the biggest pipe diameters can be produced on very little space (30 m x 30 m). Therefore a most efficient use of this production machine on site is possible.

Production process

Surfaces
Krah pipes are produced according to the Krah spi-ral cross-winding extrusion process. During the pro-duction process the pipe is produced seamless and all sub-processes are continuously controlled by the integrated CPV and control visualizing software.
The first layer is produced on a heated calibration mandrel, the next layers are produced cross-over accordingly on top of the previous layers. The pre-vious layers are heated by an IR-Heating system to provide a surface temperature between 170°C and 200°C.
With the help of the co-extruder the inner surface can be produced with an inspection friendly, colo-ured polyolefin material. The orientation of the mo-
lecules is in radial direction, which has a positive effect on the internal pressure. Another important quality advantage is, that due to the slow cooling down process no frozen stresses will occur in the pipe wall.
The base material, high density polyethylene (PE80, with a minimum MRS of 8.0 N/mm2 or PE100, with a minimum MRS of 10.0 N/mm2), is normally sta-bilized by the addition of carbon black. On special request and for special applications other polyolefin can be used, like for example polypropylene gra-des.
The pipe ends are cut in-line, in 90° angle to the pipe axis. Should electro fusion joints or bends be produced, the pipe ends are produced accordingly with socket and spigot.
The internal and external pipe surface is smooth. Slight corrugation (especially on the outer surface), which necessarily involves variations in the wall thickness, is acceptable providing that the thickness of the pipe wall is at no point less than its given no-minal value.
The inner surface can be produced of electro con-ductive or inspection friendly coloured material.inspekcję rurociągów.

Pipe marking
Generally the pipes have to be marked according to DIN 8074 No. 8. The minimum marking should indicate:
• Manufacturer Code, e.g. KRAH• If available, third-party control marks• Material Code, e.g. PE100• DIN-Number, e.g. DIN16961• External diameter, e.g. DN/OD 1200 or in ternal diameter, e.g. DN/ID 1200• Wall thickness, e.g. 30 mm• Melt Flow Rate, e.g. MFR005• Standard Dimension Ratio, e.g. SDR11• Date of Manufacturing, e.g. 20130802• Machine No., e.g. no. 1/KR600
The marking should be clear and should be placed outside of the pipe in radial direction, at least once per 1 m pipe length.
Low pressure and high stiffness
In some applications wall thickness for low pressure is not stiff enough to be buried. Usually pipes with thicker solid wall have to be applied. Krah technolo-gy proposes another solution – a PR profile can be added to the pipe wall. This keeps the low pressure pipe properties and adds more stiffness that makes it possible to install the low pressure pipe undergro-und.

Acc. to DIN 8074, the following hoop stress formula is used:
with:smin – minimum wall thickness (mm)ds – minimum outside diameter (mm)σh – hoop stress (MPA)p – pressure (MPA)
The hoop stress is related to the MRS value of the used material. The safety factor c is usually 1,25 for water applications. In DIN 16961 (Thermoplastics pipes and fittings with profiled outer and smooth in-ner surface) the same basic formula can be used and rewritten as:

According to the Krah production technology pipes can be produced with a structured / profiled wall (type PR).

Jointing
For the jointing of the pipes the butt-fusion technolo-gy according to DVS 2207 is recommended.
However for low pressure applications the integra-ted electro fusion joint can be used. Also the flange connection, where the stub ends are integrated in the pipes, is applicable.
Quality control
The quality control requirements and tests are accor-ding to DIN 8075, or other international standards. Individual requirements specified in this standard may be omitted or supplemented in technical deli-very conditions relating to particular applications.
Fittings
All kinds of fittings can be manufactured out of pipe segments. The preferred jointing procedure is butt welding.

Voltage Time Number of welding devices
A complete pipe system is always just as secure as its weakest component. The weakest component is the joint. Therefore it is important to choose the most suitable and permanent one. The welding of small diameter plastic pipes and fittings with the help of electro fusion has been a common method in the market for years.
Above all because this jointing technique is very favourable, simple and secure, which has caused Krah to develop this technique for big pipes accor-ding to DVS 2207-1.
A fusion wire is included into the socket of the pipe. After putting the socket and spigot of the two pipes, that shall be connected, together, the wire is heated with the help of a special fusion device whereby the two pipe ends (the socket and the spigot) are we-lded together.
This jointing technique allows pipes to be installed in such a short period of time never achieved be-fore. With only one welding device it is possible to install a pipeline of 72 m with a diameter of 1200 mm in between 8 hours. The installation speed is now depending on the trench works.
INTEGRATED ELECTRO FUSION
Average welding parameters for larger diameters on request.
Welding procedure
Generally the electro fusion socket and the spigot are already prepared for the welding and the we-lding wire is included into the socket before delivery. After the basic justification of the pipes, the plastic foil, which serves as protection, is removed. Now the welding area is cleaned. The connection of the welding wire should be at the top of the pipes as this facilitates the later connecting. The spigot can now be shifted into the socket. The pipe is justified, the inside support ring necessary for pipes which are larger than 800 mm, is put into the right position and the outer tensile band is tightened. Now the wire ends can be connected to the welding device. The pipe contains a barcode, which includes all neces-sary information for the welding. With the help of a barcode reader this information is processed and the welding can be started.
After having finished the welding, a certain cooling time, which depends on several factors, has to be respected. The result is a permanently and longitu-dinally strong superior joint of two pipes. The con-nection is homogenous and all jointed components build an inseparable unit. The waterway is protected against entering or leaking out and root penetration is prevented.

Software
The welding device has the capacity to record any individual welding. These welding records are sa-ved in the device and can be read out by the com-puter. The software which is needed for this is cal-led «Krahcode». With this software two things can be done: On one hand the data of the welding devi-ce can be read and administrated and on the other hand the barcodes for the welding of the pipes can be made.
Traceability
Information uploaded onto the electro fusion device can be used to trace back specific product batches. The barcode is added to the fittings as well as to the pipes and contains information about pipe history, product type, pipeline components etc. Via barcode reader and the special software Krahcode all data are decoded and attached to the welding report.
Integration
ŁThe Krah electro fusion system is not based on couplings, but the electro fusion joint is an integra-ted part in the pipe and also in all fittings and man-holes.

KRAH PROFILED PIPESWater is of vital importance. Without water no life would exist and our planet would be a huge de-sert. Plants, animals and humans are composed of 50–80% water, from polluted water or water scarcity however, they suffer, fall ill or even die. Therefore, our common future is endangered when water is not available in sufficient amount and quality.
Water is a heritage of nature and it belongs to all living beings. The right of access to sufficient and clean water is a universal law and it is therefore anchored in important international treaties. The uneven distribution of rain and water on Earth leads to water scarcity in many regions. Already today 1 billion people (20% of the world population) have no secure access to clean drinking water and 2 billion people do not dispose of access to sanitary instal-lations. Thousands of children die every year due to polluted water. Moreover global climate change will intensify the water crisis.
All these facts force the world population to react in order to rescue our home planet.
To improve this situation and find solutions a lot of governmental bodies, engineering and construction companies as well as pipe manufacturers have fo-cused in this world threatening issue.
However, for years tremendous difficulties were ob-served when selecting the material of construction for infrastructure systems which should be suitable to provide anticipated permanent solutions.
Over the last decades the inherent weaknesses of concrete, clay, ductile, PVC and steel caused tre-mendous problems in existing sewer pipe systems, as they tend to be brittle or are too sensitive to ag-gressive chemicals and soil conditions. Failures had become a common occurrence worldwide in sewer and other large-diameter-pipe applications. In addi-tion they have an unprofitable relation between cost and benefit.
So Krah derived benefit from the fact that the pro-cessing of polyolefin is very easy and the plastic materials provide superior properties against adver-se effects of the ambient and the chemicals.
In addition to the permanent solution that lasts through generations, Krah piping system is able to provide everlasting and economic solutions in wide-ranging fields of applications as for example drain, storm drain and sewer systems as well as sea out-fall, manholes and reservoirs.
In order to meet the requirements of the infrastruc-ture systems, Krah has developed the most robust and advantageous large bore pipe systems of which all features are described in detail in this brochure.

Polyethylene (PE80 and PE100) and polypropylene are thermoplastics with excellent properties for the application of water and sewer, as well as for the fabrication of containers for liquids and solid mate-rials. The environmental friendly polyethylene and polypropylene are resistant to many chemicals and very suitable for conveying and storing various li-quids.
Krah pipes can be produced of the following ther-moplastic materials:- high density polyethylene (PE80 and PE100),- polypropylene-random (PP-R),- polypropylene-homo (PP-H),- polypropylene-non-flammable (PP-S).
These materials feature below mentioned proper-ties. Other materials can be used after prior accep-tance of the producer and a third party for quality control. However, the processed material should have the below listed specification.
Since the latest developments, high stiff polypropy-lene can be used, if you are interested ask for fur-ther information and data sheets.

Krah pipes can be produced stepless at intervals of 100 mm with internal diameters (ID) from DN 300 mm to DN 4000 mm.The nominal diameters (DN) matches with the in-ternal diameter (ID) of the pipe, because in case of any change in the design of the pipe, the wall thick-ness can be increased or reduced while the internal diameter remains the same. This ensures that the designated hydraulic capacity for the installation is maintained.

The standard laying length (L) of the Krah pipes is six meters, because in this way they are easy to handle, store and transport.
In addition it is possible to produce continuously any length between one and six meters. The longer a pipe is the fewer joints are necessary and this is advantageous for the installation of the pipe. Mo-reover it is possible to deliver the pipes already jo-inted, whereby the installation time on site can be reduced significantly. Lengths up to 18 m consisting of 3 pipe sections are common.

Co-extrusion
Both profiled and solid wall pipes with wall thicknes-ses up to 300 mm can be produced.
The quality of the pipe is highly depending on the quality of the waterway wall, therefore all Krah pipes are usually produced with a minimum waterway wall of 4 mm.
The great advantage of this development is that a profiled pipe has a very low weight, but at the same time can be used for high load applications. A lot less material is needed to produce a pipe with the same static properties than a solid wall pipe, which means significant savings in material costs.
The supportable static load is determined for every profile geometry by the factors elastic modulus (N/mm2) of the respective material and the moment of inertia of the profile geometry (mm4/mm) referring to the pipe diameter. The result is called ring stiff-ness. By using a profile design pipe, the weight can
be reduced up to 65% compared to a solid wall pipe with the same ring stiffness. Krah pipes offer the best security and durability. The wall thicknesses of our pipes can be adapted in small steps to the respective load.
The Krah pipe system can withstand low working pressure up to 3 bar, depending on the thickness of the waterway wall (s1). Equivalent to DIN 8074 the hoop stress formula can be used to calculate the s1 as the minimum wall thickness.

Wall roughness
Due to the thermoplastic material the pipes can be welded together which signifies, that the whole pi-peline builds a homogenous system and is absolu-tely safe against infiltration and exfiltration.
For buried pipelines the biogenous sulphuric acid corrosion plays a key role regarding the longevity of the system. The biogenous sulphuric acid corrosion only takes place above the water level and therefore only occurs in partly filled pipes. Thanks to the used material Krah pipeline systems guarantee optimum security and resistance.
The high impact resistance, even at low tempera-tures, ensures a robust pipe, resistant against im-pacts during transport, installation on the site and during the whole service life conditions.
Polyethylene and polypropylene can be recycled to 100%. These materials have the property to be reworkable without the structure of the material ha-ving to be modified dramatically. For this reason all waste material of polyethylene and polypropylene pipes can be led back into the production cycle.
The smooth round surface of plastic pipes does not give the teeth of rodents sufficient hold to cause da-mage. Moreover even in termite-affected countries no damage to polyethylene pipelines by termites has ever been occurred. Polyethylene and polypro-pylene are not a nutrient medium for bacteria, fungi and spores, so that the material is resistant to all forms of microbial attack as well as to both sulphu-rous acid and sulfates.
Inner diameter and hydraulic properties of Krah pi-pes will remain constant regardless of the wall thick-ness or the profiles due to the smooth anti-adhesive inner pipe surface. The nominal diameter (e.g. DN/ID 500) corresponds to the respective inner diame-ter according to DIN 16961.
Compared to other pipe materials like concrete, smaller diameters can be used, which means that costs for material and installation can be reduced considerably.

PIPE PROPERTIES
Elastic pipes can react to changes in their environ-ment. Due to the deformation performance, the load is distributed to its surrounding and the force acting on the pipe will be diminished. Within a short time there is a balance in the area around the pipeline and the deformation comes to a standstill. Plastic pi-pes react very flexible to static loads, while the loads do not concentrate themselves on the pipe, but are
diverted to the surrounding soil. Flexible pipes still function, when other rigid pipe systems have alre-ady broken. Even in the case of a deformation the system is still absolute resistant against infiltration and exfiltration.
Since the pipes are profiled on the outside, these profiles can fix the pipes in the soil. There will be no or very few axial extensions in the pipeline. Krah pipes are nearly unaffected by temperature varia-tions.

Deformation resistance
Flexibility
Pipes made of Polyethylene and Polypropylene have considerable advantages to other pipe mate-rials like concrete, steel, ductile etc. Due to their ma-terial the Krah pipes posses over a high elongation at break. This signifies, that the pipe can support even loads or deformations, that were not included in the actual calculation and design of the pipe, like for example earthquakes. The Krah pipes deform conform with the movement of the earth without any breaks or cracks, so that the activity of the pipeline is not drastically affected. As soon as the overload and earth movement ends, the pipe will go back to its initial condition and position.
Another advantage is the high flexibility. Even in areas which are highly affected by 11 earthquakes, our pipes are hardly damaged in comparison to pi-pes made of other materials. Despite the flexibility of the Krah pipes they have a great capacity to carry loads, so that they are also suitable for road con-
The Krah pipes have a very low weight and there-fore are easy to handle during installation, which makes the usage of a crane on site in most of the cases unnecessary.
By using a profile design pipe, the weight can be reduced up to 65% compared to a solid wall pipe with the same ring stiffness.

Deflection of flexible pipes is controlled by the set-tlement of the soil. After settlement, traffic and other loads do not affect pipe deflection. When pipes are relatively more rigid than the soil, the traffic and other loads have to be resisted by the pipe.

Deflection of flexible pipes compared to flexural resistant pipes
Many years of practical experience have shown that flexible pipes (b) can resist traffic and other loads more effective than flexural resistant pipes (a) made of concrete or other rigid material.As shown in the drawing, the flexible pipes elude a selective strain by deflection. By this means the surrounding soil absorbs this strain.

One of the great advantages of Krah pipes is that it is easily adaptable to all different kinds of project requirements.
According to different norms and standards, the pipes shall be designed according to nominal ring stiffness classes (SN) like SN2 (only for pipes DN > 500), SN4, SN8 or SN16 (according to ISO9969), or other standard stiffness classes (DIN16961, ASTM F894, NBR 7373 etc) not depending on the testing method (constant speed or constant load).
In addition, according to EN13476-3 9.1, the ma-nufacturer is also allowed to produce pipes DN/ID > 500 mm in between the SN classes, in case he is able to prove and underline this decision with the help of a static calculation.
It is useful to perform static calculations for Krah pi-pes taking into consideration the specifications of each particular project. In 99% of cases the pipes selected for a particular project are over-dimensio-ned in the original project design documentation. Using the calculations it is possible to prove that it is sufficient to install a pipe with less stiffness but the correct profile, including the required safety factor which is also cheaper and faster to install.
The real pipe quality consists of the right wa-terway wall thickness, a good raw material and a secure jointing technology; but not the stiff-ness.
PROFILESProfile type: PR
The main properties of the profile series PR is the smooth inside and the profiled outside. The low we-ight and the high stiffness are significant.
The fields of application for this kind of profiles are pipeline systems like for example sewer, drain, storm drain and ventilation.

This profile pipe has a smooth inside and outside including internal profiles with one or more layers. This profile has a very high long-term stiffness the-refore it is very suitable for extremely high loads and big diameters.
Should a standard profile not be sufficient due to the effects of all different kinds of loads, the Krah pipe system makes it possible to combine different kinds of profiles in order to achieve the required effects. For example a PR profile can be added to a SQ pro-file or a solid wall pipe without any problems.
With this technique, the following two effects are achieved: both profiles can be statically added whe-reby a stronger pipe is produced and a profile will be added to the otherwise smooth surface, which has advantages regarding the anchoring of the pipes in the soil preventing the axial deformation.

The Krah pipe can be provided in the complete range of diameters and stiffness classes but also fittings, manholes and other components are deli-verable to accomplish the mission of a homogenous and reliable pipe system.
All fittings are fabricated from pipes of the type VW or SQ. Generally the fittings are designed corre-sponding to the required stiffness and in conside-ration of the welding factors. Every fitting can have any kind of pipe end and can be assembled with the existing pipe system with any jointing technique.
All pipe end dimensions fulfill the requirements of the standard EN 14376, like the minimum lengths and stif-fness. The standard spigot length (Ls) is 140 mm and the standard socket length (Lm) is 140 mm.
All fittings are fabricated out of pipes (mainly solid wall pipes) with an equivalent stiffness.

In order to lead Krah pipes through walls, e.g. in se-wage plants or concrete shafts, we recommend our puddle flanges which can be flush mounted in con-crete. The tightness is secured by an anchor and a ring made of EPDM.
House connections can be installed at any time using our transition sleeves. The house connection can be built onto the profile pipe at any place and in any weather. All usual dimensions for house con-nection lines are available. The assembly can be carried out by experts on site.
The standard diameters are DN/OD 160 mm and DN/OD 200 mm, but other dimensions are possi-ble.
Following any other kind of pipe system as, for example, corrugated, clay and PVC pipes can be jointed.

MANHOLES
This manhole is situated tangentially to the pipe, that means it is displaced from the middle. That is the reason why by using this kind of manholes with the standard diameter of DN/ID 1000 mm it can be also used by pipes with bigger diameters.
Like the standard manhole, the lower part of the manhole is completely fabricated out of polyethy-lene or polypropylene according to the static requ-irements. The upper part is a concrete or reinforced concrete ring according to DIN 4034. Even very complex constructions according to the engineer requirements are possible. The main advantage of the tangential manhole is the sustainable, flexible, light weight, inspection friendly, self-cleaning, dura-ble and a very cost effective construction.
Standard manhole
Tangential manhole
To have the possibility to control and maintain pipe systems regularly, manholes are integrated in the system. They are mainly installed at the positions of bends, reduction or branches. The manholes are made of the same material as the pipes and are also connected to the system with similar jointing techniques. The special advantage is that a homo-genous system of the same material is produced. With preference, profile types like SQ and VW are used for the production of the manholes, as the soil can densify better at the smooth outside of the pipe and can settle without problems.
This kind of manhole is situated centrically abo-ve the pipe. Because of static and safety reasons this type is only recommended if the diameter of the pipe is smaller or equal to the diameter of the manhole. Normally the diameters DN/ID 800 mm of DN/ID 1000 mm are used for this kind of manhole.
Usually the lower part of the manhole is completely fabricated out of polyethylene or polypropylene ac-cording to the static requirements. The upper part is a concrete or reinforced concrete ring according to DIN 4034. Even very complex constructions ac-
cording to the engineers requirements are possible. The main advantage is the sustainable, flexible, li-ght weight, inspection friendly, self-cleaning and du-rable construction.

If required a manhole made of concrete can be pro-duced with an inlet and outlet designed to connect to the Krah pipe system.
For the cover of the manholes there exist all diffe-rent kinds of possibilities. Especially the application case and the loads are a major criteria for the cor-rect choice of the cover.
Regularly the manholes are installed in such a way that the top edge is justified to the earth’s surface or the street. In this case the cover has to be designed in a way that the direct load conditions, e.g. cros-sing vehicles, can be carried and forwarded. The most frequently used system is the concrete plate above the manhole which lies on a ring anchor.
The advantage is that the rising loads are not for-warded to the manhole but through the ring anchor to the surrounding earth.
These covers are especially suitable for the instal-lation in roads, as the cover is integrated into the asphalt and flexibly connected with the manhole (telescopic). Thus the cover moves with the asphalt in case that the road settles and the manhole is al-ways even.

JOINTING TECHNOLOGY
The pipes and fittings are jointed with the help of a heating element butt welding machine. The ends of the pipes and fittings are butt-welded. This kind of jointing method is only recommended for pipes and fittings with a maximum wall thickness of 150 mm and with diameters from DN/ID 300 mm to DN/ID 2500 mm.
The welding has to be done according to DVS 2207 part 1.
Electro fusion joint
V seam extrusion welding
Extrusion welding
Heat element butt welding
All Krah pipes are produced automatically with a socket and spigot, which are adaptable to the follo-wing kinds of jointing techniques:
This is the most preferred joint system, as the whole pipe system becomes a homogenous unit.
A welding wire which is included in the socket or spigot is heated with the help of a special welding device whereby the two pipe ends (the socket and the spigot) are jointed together. The electro fusion jointing technique is a very favourable, simple and secure method to install pipes in even very narrow trenches in a short time.
For further information please refer to our brochure «Technology – integrated electro fusion joint».
The pipes and fittings are jointed with the help of an extrusion welding extruder. The outside of the ends are chamfered. Thus a welding seam is produ-ced which looks like «V». Normally no socket-spigot connection is used.
The welding has to be done according to DVS 2207 part 4.
The pipes and/or fittings which shall be connected are jointed by a socket and spigot joint. Thus the two pipe ends are connected with the help of an extrusion welding device. The jointing method can be carried out inside or/and outside of the pipe. This jointing is most suitable for low-pressure gra-vity pipes and manholes.
The welding has to be done according to DVS 2207 part 4.

Our system has solid plain socket and spigot, with an integrated EPDM sealing. The minimum wall thicknesses of the spigot is according to EN13476-3 table 7 and in addition the ring stiffness of the soc-ket plus the ring stiffness of the spigot is higher than the ring stiffness of the pipe.
Flange connection
Gasket connection
The ends of the pipes and fittings are jointed with the help of a steel flange and a rubber gasket. De-pending on the type of pipe the flange adapters are completely manufactured with the pipe, or the flanges are available as separate fitting. This kind of jointing method is mostly used for open sea di-scharge application and for tank connections. The greatest advantage of this connection is the facility of disjointing.

APPLICATIONS
Due to the versatility of Krah pipes, with all its diffe-rent kinds of profiles, they are applicable in all kind of fields of application:
Sewer systems made of profiled Krah pipes have been used for more than 35 years in all areas of local and industrial drainage. The Krah AG offers a modern sewer pipe program with manholes, fittings, and safe pipe joint systems for the planning of se-wer treatment plants.
Water outlets are used for the discharge of liquid and gaseous substances at the base of rivers and the sea. For the construction and operation of such pipelines Krah pipes offer considerable advantages, such as the elasticity of the pipeline and therefore optimum adaptation to the area, low weight, secure and strong jointing technology, seawater resistance and pipe stiffness exactly adapted to the respective requirements because the appropriate profiles are selected for every individual project.
Profiled or solid wall pipes made of polyethylene or polypropylene are well suited for the manufacture of horizontal and vertical tanks. For other special con-structions like chimneys, compost plants, and wash towers Krah pipes offer all advantages regarding variety, precision, quality, and expandability.
Within a sewage system, especially mixed water systems, reservoirs can store rainwater for delayed release to the sewage plant. This will avoid over-load. As reservoir systems are usually built-in sub-sequently, they must be assembled in a very short time. Since the Krah reservoirs are prefabricated, this condition is fulfilled perfectly. Krah pipes offer considerable advantages:
• the compact construction allows short buil ding times,• 100% tight joints between the various ele ments due to the electro fusion process,• smooth inner surfaces which prevent incru stations,• the pipe’s self-cleaning ability.
The re-construction of damaged sewer pipes by means of relining, «pipe in pipe method», becomes more and more important. Krah pipes are very su-itable for the relining process. Specific pipe stiffness can be calculated for all loads. Also in the area of short pipe relining, Krah pipes offer competent so-lutions. The welding can be carried out inside the shaft. Pipe lengths are available from 1 m to 6 m. Krah pipes are able to reestablish the static carrying capacity of the sewer without the need of digging. In order to insert longer stretches, pipe lengths of up to 18 m can be pre-fabricated. With pipes DN 800 and larger, it is also possible to insert the pipe one by one into the existing sewer network and weld from the inside of the pipe.

Krah is a competent partner for system components for drainage and de-gassing of landfill sites. Many landfill sites have been successfully equipped with profiled drain pipes and manholes. Krah’s developments have set new standards for soil and ground water protec-tion. Drain shafts with control systems are available in diameters of up to DN/ID 4000 mm.
In addition to the common areas of application Krah pipes are also suitable for special projects like tun-nels etc. Krah pipes are also used as ventilating pi-pes. The advantage over the traditional ventilating pipes which are made of sheet steel, is that they are corrosion-resistant which is especially important for the chemical and biological industry.
Pipeline systems which have to install for industry applications has superior high expectations. Pro-blem in this field are the chemical constituents and the high temperatures of the transported medium. On this case we can produce special applications.With high quality raw materials, which are resistant even against high concentrations of chemicals. Other advantage for this special scope of applica-tion is the Krah electro fusion pipe connection. He-rewith we can guarantee the high quality not only for the pipe but rather for a complete system.

The transport of Krah pipes is very easy as they are very good to move due to the low weight. It only has to be ensured, that the pipes cannot move and that they are stored in the right way. In special cases, e.g. if the pipes are shipped in containers, it is re-commendable to adapt the total length of the pipe to the shipping conditions in order to use the space most efficiently.
Forklifts with a rod of 5 meters are very suitable for the handling of the pipe in the production facilities. On site no additional heavy devices are needed. Normally the pipes can be unloaded and transpor-ted to the trench by an excavator which anyway is present on site.
For the storage of the pipes and fittings it is absolu-tely necessary that they are stored on even ground, free of stones and sharp-edged objects, so that po-int-loads are avoided. Further it is important to make sure that the sockets of the upper layer are not con-tacting the sockets of the lower layer. This means, the pipes of each layer have to be rotated 180°.
In any case the pipes have to be protected against rolling, especially if the pipes are stored in several layers above each other. A maximum height of 4 meters should not be exceeded..
In addition to the security aspect the pipes should always be stored in such a way that they do not de-form. Generally there should be three wood bearing supports to guarantee a good load distribution.
Installation
The installation of Krah pipes is very easy. After the trench has been prepared in the same way as for all other pipes the Krah pipe is laid down und aligned. The individual pipe parts are jointed with the diffe-rent kinds of jointing techniques. The backfilling has to be carried out according to the requirements of the static calculations. In general, the installation is carried out according to EN 1610
Pipes made from PP have proven their quality in industrial praxis.

According to the requirements pipe systems have to be tested for leakage. There exist different kinds of test procedures.
The frst alternative is the section test, where the total pipe sections (between two manholes) are te-sted in all. Air hoses are blown up and they lock the pipes at both ends. Then, water with a certain nomi-nal pressure is pumped into the tightened section. This overpressure is tested after a certain period of time which gives information about the leakage of the section.
The other alternative is the jointing test (only po-ssible with diameters greater than DN/ID 600 mm), where only the pipe joints are tested as it is assu-med that the pipes themselves are tight. A leakage testing device is used but the testing principle is the same applied in the section test, the only difference is that the test area is the joint.

QUALITY CONTROLTotal quality management
Before production control
During production control
After production control
Marking
Quality certificates
The quality of the pipes and the pipe products is the criterion for all developments of Krah AG and companies using the Krah technology. As the inter-national requirements vary because of the different norms and standards, there exists a multiplicity of test procedures for the quality assurance. The whole production process is included in an extensive Total Quality Management System. There are two main fields, the one is the internal quality control and the other is the external (third-party) quality control.
Generally the internal quality control is divided into three different steps:
The raw materials and any other input are tested re-garding the melting flow ratio, moisture and colour. Usually any new delivery of material is tested before it is stored. Every test is documented, analyzed and filed.
During the production the individual working steps are continuously supervised and documented. Mo-reover the most important dimensions are measu-red and if necessary, corrected.
After the production, the final product is tested and compared with the requirements of the customer. The final minute is written and the documentation is finished.
In order to guarantee that the static theoretic valu-es are conform to the reality pipes are continuously taken out of the production and they are tested with the help of a ring stiffness test according to DIN 16961 or ISO 9969.
The quality assurance demands a great know-how and therefore the Krah AG has created a Quality handbook in which all the important tests including the necessary machines are described. In order to give the customer an impression of the quality con-trol it is possible to have a look into the handbook.
Depending on the used pipe standard, the marking can be different. A minimum marking is: The pipes shall be marked at intervals of maximum 2 m, at least once per pipe. Number of the standard, dia-meter series DN/ID, manufacturer name, Stiffness Class (or Profile no.), Ring Flexibility (RF30), Ma-terial code.
In general the whole production is constantly super-vised by a third party inspection. The quality control exceeds by far the ISO 9000 certifications because in our case the quality of the final product is tested. As result we are in the position to issue quality certi-ficates for every delivery of pipes from the most sim-ple quality certificate 2.2 to the first class certificate 3.1b according to EN 10204.

PVC drain pipesDrain pipes produced by Instalplast-KHV
Drain pipes produced by the Private Enterprise Instalplast-KHV are used in construction branch to reduce soil moisture and for water outflow. Corrugated drain pipes are made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) on modern foreign equipment of the companies “Zinzinnati” and “Unicore” using the method of extrusion.
Owing to corrugated wall, pipe resistance to stress is increased. PVC drain pipes have yellow colour with the dia-meter of 50 mm, 110 mm and are packed in coils 50 meters each. Also, Private Enterprise Instalplast-KHV offers a full range of fittings used for joining drain systems.
Of particular importance of corrugated PVC pipes is their light weight which makes it cheaper and faster to trans-port and lay pipes.

PVC pipes for threaded wells
Advantages of PVC well casing pipes:
PVC well casing pipes are intended for construction of water wells as well as production wells for transportation of solutions to which PVC material is chemically resistant. PVC well casing pipes use is determined by modern requirements to the quality of potable water. Wells drilling using PVC pipes allows avoiding ground-water contamination and increases drilling speed owing to the decreased diameter in comparison to ordinary steel pipes. Well casing pipes diameter: 125 mm and 140 mm.

Notes
1. Chemicals, which usually have no influence on plastic properties without loading, may bring about totally different behavior (e.g. stress cracks) under mechanical or thermal stress (such as constant internal pres-sure or cyclic thermal loading or stress). Information relating to chemical stability in unstressed condition cannot be used when plastic pipe is exposed to constant or cyclic mechanical or thermal stresses.
2. If a plastic pipe is exposed to mechanical or thermal stress or several chemical agents, it is necessary to conduct extended study of pipes in conditions maximally close to natural.
