Aren’t pressure losses greater in this system than in traditional ones?
With the same outer diameter, the plomyCLICK system has a smaller inner diameter because polyphenylsulfone allows to manufacture pipe walls thinner than those of metal fittings. The plomyCLICK system has a smaller roughness length because its component parts are made of plastic. plomyCLICK fittings offer a lower resistance to the flow at the fluid turning points. The inner curves of tee and elbow joints have been produced by injection, while the shape of the corresponding metallic fittings has been mechanically produced forming right angles.
