In modern household and industrial piping systems, PPR plastic angle valves are highly favored for their excellent resistance to high temperature and pressure, as well as their environmental friendliness. Produced by Chinese faucet factories, PPR plastic angle valves are made from polypropylene random copolymer (PPR), making them particularly suitable for hot water piping systems, such as connecting water heaters and heating pipes in high-temperature water flow systems.
1. Preparation
Before installing the PPR plastic angle valve, you need to prepare the following tools and materials:
- PPR plastic angle valve
- PPR heat fusion tool
- PPR pipes
- Pipe cutter
- Cleaning cloth
2. Cutting the Pipe
Use a pipe cutter to cut the PPR pipe to the desired length, ensuring a smooth and burr-free cut. After cutting, wipe the pipe cut with a cleaning cloth to remove any dust and impurities.
3. Heat Fusion Welding
Preheat the PPR heat fusion tool to the appropriate temperature (usually around 260°C). Insert the PPR pipe and the PPR plastic angle valve interface into the heating head of the heat fusion tool simultaneously, heating for a few seconds until the surfaces of the pipe and valve interface begin to melt.
4. Connecting the Pipe and Valve
Quickly insert the heated PPR pipe into the interface of the PPR plastic angle valve, maintaining steady pressure for a few seconds to ensure a thorough fusion. Avoid rotating or moving during the connection process to prevent affecting the welding quality.
5. Inspection and Testing
After the connection is complete, wait a few minutes for the welded area to cool and solidify. Then, turn on the water supply and check for any leaks at the interface of the PPR plastic angle valve. If there are leaks, redo the heat fusion welding.
6. Completion of Installation
Once no leaks are confirmed, the installation of the PPR plastic angle valve is complete. You can now safely use your water heater or heating system, enjoying the stability and efficiency provided by the PPR plastic angle valve.
By following these steps, you can easily complete the installation of the PPR plastic angle valve, ensuring the safety and efficiency of your piping system. Whether for household or industrial applications, the PPR plastic angle valve is your ideal choice.
