Radius P - pre insulated pipe system

Pre-insulated pipe system with steel carrier pipes, PUR thermal insulation and plastic jacket
The main fields of application for Radius P pipe systems include district heating and district cooling networks.


A choice can be made from three different insulation series in order to improve energy efficiency.
To guarantee long-term operational security of the heating network, Radius P pipe systems may be optionally equipped with network monitoring system.

1. Steel carrier pipe
2. Polyurethane foam (PUR)
3. Network monitoring system
4. PE-HD casing

Longitudinal welded steel pipe according EN 10217-2/P235GH
Available in 3 insulation series, with or without foamed-in network monitoring system.


Rod length: 6, 12 und 16 m

Thermosand

New bedding material to reduce heat loss.


District heating pipes are used buried for heating networks up to 130 ° C hot water temperature. In the trench they are laid in a sand bed, resulting in a temperature gradient from the pipe to the edge of the chute as a result of the heat loss. With the innovative thermal sand, the heat losses compared to conventional cable sand can be significantly reduced.


Lambda cable edge: 1.5 – 1.7 W / m ° K
Lambda Thermosand: 0.177 W / m ° K

System Description

KELIT – Thermosand is a new type of bedding material which has the same mechanical properties and a significantly lower thermal conductivity than conventional quartz sand.

technical data (PDF)

Saving:
By using Thermosand (lambda: 0.33W / m ° K), the same losses are to be expected for a series 1 insulation pipe as when using insulation series 3 pipes with conventional cable sand. This considerably reduces the heat losses in the tube zone.

 

Occurrence:

Thermosand is a ground waste material from former coal mining areas in Styria, which was formed by thermal conversion of coal residues and is similar to fired clay as “natural clinker”.

 

Construction:

Naturally fired, reddish peat material (natural clinker) with high pore number, ground and on grain size 0/3 mm. These micro cavities only reach a water saturation level of max. 84% (on average approx. 65%). The remaining cavities are filled with air and cause good insulation properties.

 

  • high porosity ensures much better insulation (dry and wet !!!)
  • mechanically stable
  • sufficiently available

 

 

Soil mechanical suitability:

Proof
The soil mechanical suitability was determined by extensive tests on the technical University of Graz (TUG) at the Institute of Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering. (Test No. 2045).


In a comparative assessment, the suitability of the thermosand® as a backfill material, which have the necessary properties to fulfill the tube statistics requirements according to ÖNORM EN 13941 must, confirmed.
