22 March 2007 The 3 rules of process engineering
The 3 basic tenets of metal-connection technology are: safe, clean, sensible
|
|
|
Why metal connection technology ? Pipe connectors are subject to powerful mechanical, chemical, and physical loads: high pressure, including peak pressure, enormously high or low temperature, extreme temperature variations, and attacks by aggressive media.
All in all, metal pipe connectors guarantee:
| -
|
Recyclability
|
|
|
Take copper: these days we recycle more than 50%
|
|
|
|
| -
|
Fire protection
|
|
|
Metal materials not only resist high temperatures, but they don`t release
toxic components in the form of smoke if they burn
|
|
|
|
| -
|
Experience
|
|
|
In some areas, more than 100 years` experience of metals processing
|
|
|
|
| -
|
Hygiene
|
|
|
Copper materials are well known for their anti-bacterial characteristic.
Stainless steel is inert, which is why it`s used widely in kitchens and hospitals
|
| -
|
Versatility
|
|
|
There`s an optimal metal material for every application and an optimal connection
technique - in all shapes and sizes
|
These numerous positive features have made metal pipe connectors the
market leaders in Europe, even with plastic piping systems
