Thermal cycle tests on multi-layer piping assemblies PE-X pipe and fittings.
BPV-T series test benches are suitable to execute thermal cycle tests in accordance with the EN12293 and equivalent Standards on multi-layer piping assemblies, PE-X pipe and fittings.
The bench makes it possible to operate with 3 test stations simultaneously, using specific independent parameters for each station and a common thermal cycle.
Thermal cycle is executed with hot water at 95 °C and cold water at 20 °C, pressure range between 1 and 12 bar and the maximum overall flow-rate is 50 L/min.
The hydraulic plant is designed to guarantee the temperature exchange in less than 1 minute.
The test station is equipped with an external conditioning unit to avoid that thermal dispersion increases the temperature in the test area
