How to install PE pressure systems

Stability test

In a PE pipe susceptible to deformation, exceeding a critical load will cause the pipe cross section to buckle. This occurs as a result of increased external (external overpressure due to the effects of groundwater, depth of the covering soil, etc.) or internal (under pressure) stresses. The stability test is used to document the safety clearance between the critical and actually occurring load.

Details and instructions for the calculation and the installation of the pipe systems are provided here.
