FOREWORD
New Products Industries (Nepro), National Factory for Plastic pipes and fittings
took the early initiative in 1969 of introducing uPVC pipes production to the Saudi
Market, becoming the first Saudi local uPVC pipes manufacturer. Ever since Nepro
implemented a strict policy of providing high quality uPVC pipes manufactured
under strict quality control for the growing market.
Nepro had committed itself to install most modern machinery, acquiring the besttechnical know how besides its highly qualified technical staff. Nepro at the early
stages introduced to the Saudi market uPVC pipes manufactured according toBristish Standard namely BS 3505, followed by ISO uPVC pipes. Nepro worked
actively with Saudi Arabian Standard Organization (SASO) on a new SaudiStandard
in early 70s until the SAS 14 and 15 came to effect, uPVC pipes were then
manufactured to SASO standard, followed by the introduction of ASTM rigid PVCand the production of ASTM conduit pipes as well as CPVC pipes for Hot and Cold
water systems. Early 90 's had seen two very important development at Nepro, theexpansion of factory area by 50 of it original space and its association with B.F.
Goodrich world leader of CPVC raw materials manufacturer to produce under
their license the newNepro FlowGuard CPVCpipes and fittings.
Nepro pipes and fittings are marketed locally by National Marketing Establishment
through its ten (10) fully established branches and overseas through a number ofappointed agents.Nepro is committed to the welfare and development of SaudiArabia
and other GCC Countries building and infrastructure sectors through manufacturingand introducing high quality products to the end user.

ADVANTAGES OF NEPRO PIPES OVER CONVENTIONAL PIPING MATERIALS
Corrosion Resistance
-Nepro PVC pipes are chemically resistance to nearly all acids, Alkalis, Alcohol, halogens as well asmany other corrosive fluids. Being non-conductor of electricity, it eliminates galvanic or electrolytic
corrosion which is the cause of expensive repairs.
Fluid Friction
-Nepro PVC pipes being a mirror-smooth inner surface has lower friction loss as compared tometals. ie. Lower pressure losses.
Thermal Conductivity
-Nepro PVC pipes lower thermal conductivity than for metal which reduces heat losses and offer betteruniform fluid temperature (Insulation is normally not required).
Mechanical Strength
-Nepro PVC pipes have great strength yet are flexible to withstand displacement in the pipe lines. Pipes arenot dented or flattened under pressure.
Weight
-Nepro PVC pipes are light in weight, having a specific weight which is one fifth of steel pipes. This willcut down transportation costs and facilitate pipes installation.
Ease of Installation & Maintenance
-Nepro PVC pipes are quick and easy to install and maintained with complete range of solvent cementfittings saving time, effort and money as it is light in weight and easy to handle.
Fire Proof
-Nepro PVC pipes do not support combustion and are self extinguishing. In case of fire, flames are unableto travel along the pipe.
Non-Toxic
-Nepro PVC pipes are non-toxic and will not affect taste, smell or color of drinking water orany other liquid.
H A N D L I N G & S T O R A G E OF P V C P I P E S
Nepro PVC pipes should be adequately supported during handling and storage, pipes should not come into
severe contact with sharp objects such as corners of truck beds, buildings, forklift trucks or other obstacle
on the ground. Forklifts forks must never be inserted into the ends of pipes as a means of lifting or moving.Pipes to be stacked in layers with the socket, placed at alternative ends with socket protruding outside.
PVC Pipes should not be exposed to solar radiation for any length of time, ultraviolet rays may cause
discoloration. It is recommend to stock pipes in a cool ventilated and shady palce.
For in field storage, where racks are not available, the ground should be leveled flat, free from coarse
stones and dry. Pipes stored should not exceed 1.5 meter height.

HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE TESTING
1. The last assembled joint should be fully cured beforefilling the system with water.
2. All valves and air relief mechanisms should be opened atthe ends and elevations. The system should be filledslowly, flow velocities should not exceed 1 foot persecond. This will prevent surge, water hammer, and air
entrapment.
3. Water flow should continue until all entrapped air iscompletely flushed out of every branch of the system.Maintain the 1 ft/s velocity until every valve is checked. Arapidly fluctuating gauge needle during pressure rise may
be an indication that entrapped air still remains in thesystem.System should include the appropriate air relief andvacuum breaker valves to vent air during normal operationafter installation. Entrapped air is major cause of surgeand burst failure in plastic piping systems.
4. After filing the system, do not pressurize until theresponsible engineer is present to witness the test. Allpersonnel in the vicinity of the system should wear safetyglasses and hard hats. High voltage electrical equipmentshould be shield from a possible spray.
5. The piping, system should be pressurized to 125% of itsmaximum design operating pressure. This pressure mustnot exceed the working pressure of the lowest ratedcomponent in the system, i.e.. flanges, unions, threadparts, valves, etc.
6. The pressure test should not exceed 1 hours. This shouldprovide enough time to inspect all joints for leaks. If leaksare found, pressure must be relieved and the leak repaired.The system should then be recharged and re-tested.Consult the factory if you have any questions concerningthese steps.
INSTALLATIONS
General Recommendations
1. HandlingCompared to steel, iron or copper pipe, PVC pipe and
fittings have a lower impact resistance (especially at lowtemperatures) Care should be exercised during
transportation and installation of PVC Pipe installed inhigh impact areas should be protected accordingly.
2. Solvent Cement WeldingThis method of joining is very simple and reliable if it isfollowed correctly, but any deviations from the
recommended basic steps may reduce the strength andintegrity of the joint. The procedures for preparation,insertion, and curing should be followed very carefully.
3. Expansion and ContractionThe coefficient of linear expansion of PVC pipe is greater
than that of metallic piping: therefore, take this factor intoconsideration when designing and installing a PVC pipingsystem.
4. Hanging and SupportingThe modulus of elasticity of PVC pipe is smaller than it isfor metal pipes. Maximum working temperature and roomtemperature should be considered when determining therequired support spacing.
5. Trench PreparationWhen laying PVC pipe below the ground, care should be
taken to remove all rocks, boards, empty primer andcement cans, brushes, bottles and other debris from the
trench. Smaller diameters of pipe should be snaked inthe trench to allow for expansion and contraction. Ifsolvent cement welding is used for the method of joining,
snaking, pressure testing, and pipe movement should notbe done until after the joints have been given sufficienttime to dry.
6. Temperature/PressureThe working pressure of PVC pipe and fittings varies withchanges in temperature. Before putting a piping systeminto service, the maximum working temperature and the
maximum working pressure should be verified. (Table 4)
7. PVC for Non-Liquid TransportThe manufacturer does not recommend its PVC products
for use in air or compressed gas systems. PVC pipes andfittings are excellent products for the transport of water
and corrosive chemicals, but there are a number of otherpiping products that are especially designed and suitablefor compressed air and gases.
8. Testing
Never use air of gas for pressure testing PVC piping
systems. Before water-testing a system, flush out allentrapped air (see above Hydrostatic Pressure System).
