AQUA SPECTRA – Multilayer pipe PE100 with microbiological protection for water distribution
Type: SDR11 / SDR17
Working temperature: from -10 °C to +20 °C
Characteristics:
Ingremio Aqua Pipe and Ingremio Aqua Spectra polyethylene pipes are designed for the construction of water supply and sewage networks, and are also used in industrial networks where there is a need to transport chemicals. The pipes can be manufactured as single or double-layer in PE100 material and with increased strength parameters in PE100 RC polyethylene. The use of a higher strength material allows the technical requirements of PAS 1075:20009-04
(Publicly Available Specification) to be met. It is a set of recommendations, requirements and tests that prove resistance to the effects of possible scratches and point loads that may arise as a result of the construction, or rehabilitation, of networks without the use of bedding and backfilling and by traditional and trenchless methods. Microbial-protected pipes for liquid transfer are also available in polypropylene (PP) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
In the case of Aqua Spectra pipes, the inner wall is made entirely of antibacterial and antifungal material, which protects the pipes from being colonised by micro-organisms that are undesirable and dangerous to humans. The material used was developed by Ingremio and is protected by patents. It was created in cooperation with scientific centres in the course of a research project, during which high effectiveness for different types of bacteria and fungi was confirmed.
The material contains silver, copper and other microbiologically active compounds in the polymer matrix so that they do not undergo migration, ionisation and elution. The virtual absence of antimicrobially active compounds migration from the polymer has been confirmed in the laboratory tests that were performed in significantly more aggressive environments compared to the ones in water supply systems. The substances used ensure in practice an indefinite bactericidal and fungicidal effect and prevent the formation of defensive mechanisms by bacteria and fungi regardless of air temperature and humidity. Thanks to the Spectra microbiological protection, the fundamental advantage of Aqua Spectra pipes is the lack of structures that could indicate the formation of a biofilm, which was confirmed during laboratory tests.
The composition of the materials used is entirely safe for people, animals and plants. Moreover, all materials used are approved for food contact.
Ingremio Aqua Pipe and Ingremio Aqua Spectra are characterised by excellent mechanical properties and high impact strength. The use of high-end materials from reputable suppliers allows us to meet all quality standards. The use of a smooth internal surface minimises resistance to water flow.
