GENERAL INFORMATION
Scope:
This specication covers Copper Tube Size (CTS) CPVC manufactured to standard dimensional ratio (SDR) 11 for
non-potable water distribution. This system is intended for pressure applications where the operating temperature will
not exceed 180° F at 100 psi.
Specication:
Pipe shall be manufactured from virgin rigid CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride) vinyl compounds with a cell class
of 24448 as identied in ASTM D 1784. Fittings shall be manufactured from virgin rigid CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl
chloride) vinyl compounds with a cell class of 23447 as identied in ASTM D 1784.
ReUze CTS CPVC pipe and ttings shall conform to ASTM D 2846. Pipe and ttings shall be manufactured as a
system and be the product of one manufacturer. All pipe and ttings shall be manufactured in the United States.
Pipe and ttings shall conform to NSF International Standard 14. The pipe shall be listed by NSF International for
reclaimed water and bear the mark “NSF-rw.”
Installation:
Installation shall comply with the latest installation instructions published by Charlotte Pipe and Foundry and shall
conform to all applicable plumbing, re, and building code requirements. Buried pipe shall be installed in accordance
with ASTM F 1668 and ASTM D 2774. Solvent cement joints shall be made using CPVC cement conforming to ASTM
F 493. If a primer is required by local plumbing or building codes, then a primer conforming to ASTM F 656 should
be used. The system shall be protected from chemical agents, re-stopping materials, thread sealant, plasticized-
vinyl products or other aggressive chemical agents not compatible with CPVC compounds. The system shall be
hydrostatically tested after installation WARNING! Never test with or transport/store compressed air or gas in CPVC
pipe or ttings. Doing so can result in explosive failures and cause severe injury or death.
