Product Description - Ultra Pure Water Piping
Ideal for the semiconductor, electronic, biotechnology, healthcare, university, and laboratory industries, GF Harvel LXT® low-extractable piping is made from an innovative clean PVC compound that offers a number of advantages over other high-purity piping created using traditional construction materials, including polypropylene (PP) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF):
- Extremely low extractable contaminants, particularly trace metals and Total Oxidizable Carbon (TOC)
- Fast, reliable installation with simple inexpensive joining methods
- Specialty one-step fast-setting solvent-cement joining system rinses up quickly
- Unique translucency allows visual joint integrity inspection
- Ultra-smooth interior pipe surface minimizes the potential for bacterial growth and particle generation
- Rigid Schedule 80 dimensions for pressure service requires fewer supports than flexible plastic systems
Unique Benefits for Critical Ultra-Pure Water Applications
In addition to superior performance, lower material costs and fast, reliable installation, the GF Harvel LXT® water system offers an array of unique benefits for use in critical ultra-pure water systems (UPW, DI, R/O, distilled, USP):
- Non-contaminating materials designed specifically for use in aggressive UPW, DI, R/O and USP water piping applications
- Complete line of high-purity water pipe, fittings and valves (IPS Sizes 1/2"-6" diameters)
- Clean pipe double-bagged, sealed and boxed on-line to maintain cleanliness for use in high-purity environments
- High-impact strength and low thermal conductivity ideal for various ambient temperature UPW grades including DI, R/O and USP water
- Lower overall installed costs and improved life-cycle economics
