The welded connection
PPR pipe system
The KELEN pipe system, with its numerous advantages, is ideal for hot and cold water installations. The excellent quality of the piping system, based on a polypropylene copolymer (PP-R), guarantees corrosion resistance against all ions in the water as well as building materials – inside and outside.
High impact resistance even at temperatures below freezing, the secure connection technology without added materials ensures that after connection, the pipe and fitting form a permanently sealed unit made of one single continuous material.
Optionally, the system is also available pre-insulated – this enables fast, standard-compliant and cost-saving concealed installation.
Drinking water, sanitary and utility water piping for hot and cold water.
KELEN pipe system for hot and cold water and drinking water, made of PP random copolymer (PP-R type 3). The pipes are tested and approved both internally and by external institutes. Approved for drinking water. Smooth internal surface. Low heat conductivity. Long service life and high resistance to impact down to a temperature of -5°C
