How is a Corzan CPVC system assembled?
Proper installation of a Corzan piping system is critical to the performance of the system. There are three accepted installation methods: Solvent cement represents the most common joining method. This is a two-step process involving a primer and solvent cement, which is recommended for all conditions. Flanging, another method for joining Corzan Schedule 80 pipe, is used to provide temporary disassembly of a piping system or in situations where it is not possible to create solvent cemented joints at the assembly site. Flanging requires a gasket which is chemically resistant to the process fluids. Larger-diameter systems (above 8″) may require a flange to be fabricated rather than molded. Threading, the third method, is only applicable when using Corzan Schedule 80 pipe up to and including 4 inches in diameter at an operating temperature of 130°F or less.
