Series 412 The NPT Female Header Fitting Submittal
Design
The POLY-CAM Female Header Fitting is a barbed mechanical design fitting which is hydraulically compressed into the polyethylene or pipe quality copolymer material. The fitting is fused onto the wall of pipe. This low profile designs allows probes and meters to be inserted without a longer arm. It can also be installed in caps for greater reductions.
Sizes range from .5” to 2” NPT. All National Pipe Threads are made to ANSI/ASME B1.20-1983 R 1992.
System Performance
The transition fitting is designed to handle the pressure rating of the HDPE pipe with a 2:1 safety factor at 73.40 degrees Fahrenheit with a minimum 50 year design life.
Quality Assurance
The transition fitting shall be manufactured by Poly-Cam, Inc. Poly-Cam, Inc. shall provide quality assurance with regards to proper installation, compatibility, performance, and acceptance.
- Manufactured to ASTM D3035, D1599, D1598, D3350
- All Fittings meet ARRA requirements.
- Manufactured in the United States of America.
Installation
HDPE pipe end: Install transition fitting in compliance with the pipe manufacturer’s recommended procedures. All field welds shall be accomplished in accordance with Poly-Cam’s welding procedure for Saddle Socket Fusion.
Steel Fitting:
- The entrance of the coupling is tapered at the beginning.
- The polyethylene or copolymer material is cold pressed into the coupling. This allows the material to relax into the barb system.
Material
