standard: AS 2492.
The main advantages of Pexgol pipes for this application:
1. Max. service temperature: 60C
2. Min. service temperature: -50C
3. No sand bedding is needed.
Pexgol natural gas pipes are usually connected by
electrofusion fittings.

installed as they do not require anchoring along the line
since the pump is not suspended on the pipe and the
weight of the pump and water column is not carried
out by the pipe. The end fittings should be protected Pexgol plastic discharge

For energy-saving reasons, we recommend choosing a Pexgol pipe with head losses that do not exceed J=5%,
and preferably lower. However, please note that designing these pipes is complicated, due to the complex three-
dimensional stress regime in these applications.
Golans Technical Department will calculate the pipe design for you after receiving the completed borehole

Water Hammer
Water hammer is a series of pressure pulsations, of varying magnitude, above and below the normal pressure of the
liquid in the pipe. The amplitude and periodicity depends on the extinguished velocity of the liquid, as well as the
size, length and material of the pipeline. Shock results from these pulsations when any liquid, flowing with a certain
velocity, is stopped in a short period of time. The pressure increase, when flow is stopped, is independent of the
working pressure of the system. The surge pressure in any pipeline occurs when the total discharge is stopped in
a period of time, equal to or less than the time required for the induced pressure wave to travel from the point of
valve closure to the inlet end of the line and return. This time is:
t = 2L
a
where:
t = Time for pressure wave to travel the length of the pipe and return (sec.)
L = Length of pipe line (m)
a = Velocity of pressure wave (m/sec)
When the liquid in the pipe is water, the velocity of the pressure wave a is determined by the following equation:
1440
a=
1 + 2,070 x
d
Ee
where:
a = Velocity of pressure wave (m/sec).
Kbulk = Bulk modulus of fluid (for example: 2,070 MPa for water at 20C)
d = Inside diameter of pipe (mm)
e = Thickness of pipe wall (mm)
E = Instantaneous (short term) modulus of elasticity (MPa) for the pipe material (obtained from Tensile tests)
The surge pressure caused by water hammer is determined by the following equation:
V
P=0.1x x a x
g
Where:
P = Surge pressure (bar)
= fluid density (for example: 1 gr/cm3 for water at 20C)
a = Velocity of pressure wave (m/sec)
V = Velocity of water stopped = line velocity (m/sec)
g = Acceleration caused by gravity (9.81 m/sec2)
Pressure caused by water hammer can be minimized by increasing closure times of valves to a value greater than
2L/a. For example, when the closure time is 10 times 2L/a, the pressure surge can be 10%20% of the surge caused
by closure in a time equal to or less than 2L/a.
The value of the short-term modulus of elasticity E for PEX pipes is much lower than the value of E for steel pipes,
concrete pipes or HDPE pipes. Since the velocity a of the pressure wave is related to the short-term modulus of
elasticity E, the velocity a decreases when the value of E is lower.
28
In order to determine the resistance of the pipe material to the water hammer phenomenon, the total occurring
pressure (surge pressure + working pressure) should be calculated and compared to the maximum allowable total
occurring pressure in each pipe material. The resistance of HDPE pipes depends on the nature of the water hammer.
In case of recurring water hammer shock waves, HDPE pipes are limited to a maximum total occasional pressure
of only 1.5 times the working pressure. Because of the flexibility and resilience of PEX pipes, the surge pressures
caused by the water hammer are much reduced. Furthermore, because of the cross-linked structure, the PEX pipe
can withstand a total transient pressure (recurring or occasional surge pressure + working pressure) at least 2.5 times
the design pressure in the relevant temperature.
Comparison culculations for other pipe materials:
The following examples show the pressure surges caused by the water hammer for various pipes, which
are considered for the same application. In all following examples:
The line is horizontal; line length is 2,200m.

Conclusions:
1. The surge pressure caused by the water hammer in steel pipes is at least three times higher than the
surge pressure in PEX pipes.
2. The surge pressure caused by the water hammer in HDPE pipes could sometimes be too high.
3. PEX pipes have a high margin for surge pressures in all temperature range and pipe classes.
The expression for a = the velocity of pressure wave is a function of the short term Modulus E and the
dimension ratio d/e, which is the same for each pipe class: d/e=(D-2xe)/e=(D/e)-2=SDR-2
It is possible to calculate the values for a for each pipe class.
In the following table (32.1), the values of the pressure velocity a were calculated for the following design
temperatures:
20C for buried pipes
40C for above ground pipes at ambient temp of 20C
60C for above ground pipes at ambient temp of 40C
The values of P were calculated for line velocity of 1.0 m/sec.
Table 32.1 shows the low surge pressures expected in PEX pipes.

The value of a = Velocity of pressure wave was calculated using the instantaneous Modulus of Elasticity.
Please note the surge pressure P is in direct linear relation to the value of the line velocity V.
Therefore, values for different surge pressures for the same pipe class can be calculated by changing the values of the
Line velocity V.
For example: calculating the surge pressure in paragraph 4.

PEX 180mm SDR 9 Class 19
Above ground installation: ambient temperature is 40C, design temperature is 60C
Design pressure of the pipe is 12 bar at 60C. Max. allowable total transient pressure 30 bar.
OD 180mm, w.t. 20.1mm, d=139.8mm=0.1398m, V=2.7m/sec
From table 32.1, the surge pressure for class 19, velocity of 1 m/sec and design temp. of 60C is 1.6 bar.
For the PEX 180mm class 19 which has a velocity of 2.7m/sec, the surge pressure will be:
1.6x2.7/1=4.3 bar
For water density higher than 1.0, divide the value of the Velocity of the pressure wave a (taken from Table 32.1) by the
square root of the actual water density.

Pexgol Pre-insulated Pipes for District Heating &
Industrial Applications
The following table describes some of the Pexgol
pre-insulated pipes that Golan supplies. The inner pipe is
made of Pex-a natural material. The pipe can be EVOH
coated in red, yellow, or other colors. Alternatively, it is
supplied as a black pipe (UV resistant). The inner pipe
can be single, a double-pipe combination, or a four-pipe
combination (up to 63mm), according to requirements.
The external corrugated layer is made of UV resistant
black material. In cases of above-ground installation
in extremely low ambient temperatures, the external
corrugated layer can be made of Pex material.
The pipes are supplied with a heattracing element on
special request.

two loose flanges. Before connecting the central fitting,
a loose flange is mounted over the pipe and then the

from the pipe end to allow the central fitting to be
mounted later.
The axial forces are transmitted from one flange to the Figure 37.1: Floating fixpoint devices using two

Main Working Instructions
Rounding the pipe

For a quality fusion and for easy insertion, rounding the
pipe is compulsory. This is achieved by using rounding
tools which are placed on the pipe end. The tools
maintain a rounded pipe during the welding process.
Support of the fitting during the welding process:
When welding pipes in diameters 90mm and higher,
the pipe should be inserted into the fitting by means
of spanners (come-alongs) which allow controlled
insertion and ensure the coupler does not move during
the welding process.
Cooling time
Please note the cooling time that appears on a sticker
on each fitting.
Do not disassemble spanners and rounding devices until
the cooling time has elapsed.
A good practice: when the fusion process is completed,
note the hour and add the cooling time. The result is
the disassemble time. Mark this time on the fitting and
do not disassemble it earlier than this time!
Pexgol electrofusion fittings are allowed for use at the
following temperatures:

Field Service.
Working instructions:
1. Preparing the fittings for welding: Preparation and

welding can be conducted at ambient temp. If the
weather is windy (with dust) or rain or other sources
of humidity, the welding area should be protected
by a cover or welding should be halted until the
weather conditions are suitable.
2. Preparation (cleaning and scrubbing) must be done
close to the welding time. Do not prepare pipes
and fittings for welding if you plan to weld at a later
stage.
46
Electrofusion Welding
a. Marking the pipe for cutting

The pipe must be free of dirt and dust.
1. Use a plastic marking tape long enough to go around

the pipe circumference.
2. Mark the welding location around the pipe with a marker.
b. Cutting the pipe
1. Use a cutting tool for plastic pipes up to diameter

160mm. From diameter 180mm and higher use a
JigSaw cutter, with a suitable plastic saw.
c. Rounding of the pipe and scraping the oxidized layer
1. Round the pipe prior to scraping it.

2. Place the rounding device on the pipe so that the distance
from the pipe to the rounder is equal to the depth
insertion of the pipe into the fitting plus 4 centimeters.
Note: To ensure perfect, symmetric roundness of the
pipe, make sure that the rounding device is placed in
such a way that the screws will be on the flattened sides
of the pipe (on the narrow axis of the oval) and fasten
them until perfect roundness of the pipe is reached.
3. Use the universal rotational scraper according to the
instructions.
d. Pipe Preparation
1. The pipe must be marked to prepare insertion of the

fitting.
2. Move the rounding device until the marking of the full
insertion.
3. It is absolutely necessary to clean entire welding surface.
This is performed with a special cleaning solution of
95% ethanol (or equivalent) and new clean paper wipers
to ensure that no fibers are left on the surface.
47
e. Installing the fitting onto the pipe
1. Remove the fitting from its original packaging, only

when you are ready to start the welding process.
Clean the inner side of the fitting with the special
cleaning solution. Clean the pipe surface again.
2. Install the fitting onto the prepared pipe and make
sure that the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting up
to the end. The fitting should fit easily into the pipe.
f. Preparation of the oppsite pipe end for insertion
1. Clean, mark and place the rounding device as

described.
2. Pull the pipe into the fitting by means of 2 spanners
from each side until the rounder and the coupler
meet.
3. Make sure to insert the pipe straight and precisely
along the axis of the fitting by guiding both spanners.
Make sure that there are no angles between the
pipes axis and the fittings axis.
g. Welding
Please follow carefully installation instructions for the
electro fusion control box.
1. Connect the terminals from the control box to the

fitting. Make sure to connect black to black and
red to red, and make sure that the electric cable is
loose, not pulled tight.
2. Operate the control box and start the welding
process.
h. Cooling time
At the end of the fusion carefully remove the black and Note:
red terminals from the fitting.
Since pressure testing requires lower temperatures
1. The correct cooling time is shown on the barcode of the joint, we recommend waiting twice the
label on each fitting. Mark on the coupler the exact cooling time after fusion before pressurizing the
hour when the coupler can be removed (adding pipe and waiting 3 times the cooling time after
the correct cooling time to the exact hour when fusion before beginning pressure testing.
the fusion was completed).
2. Dismantle the clamps and rounding equipment
only at the end of the cooling time.
48
Welding of Saddles
a. Pipe must be marked

The pipe must be free of dirt and dust.
1. Place the lower part of the saddle on the place intended for fusion, mark the
location of the outlet by marking a line all around the pipe. Use the lower
part of the saddle for marking in order to avoid dirtying the upper part prior
to welding.
2. Mark 3 lines on each side of the line at a distance of 30mm from each other.
3. Remove the lower part and scrape the marked area with a manual scraper
until all lines are scraped (except for the center line).
Note: The manual scraper should be very sharp! Sharpen it by rotating the knife
from time to time (4 positions) and by sharpening it with a fine iron file.
Use a manual scraper and scrape using two hands to achieve best results.
b. Pipe preparation and mounting of the saddle
1. Clean the pipe with a special cleaning solution for PE cleaning (ethanol) as
any other fluid may damage the joint. To apply the solution, use clean wipes.
2. Clean the inner side of the upper saddle and install it to the pipe.
3. Close the saddle screws so that the upper and lower parts meet.
4. Fasten the screws.
Note: The hole should be drilled only after the welding is completed.
c. Welding
Please follow carefully installation instructions of the welding device.
1. Connect the terminals from the generator to the saddle red to red,
black to black.
2. Operate the generator and start welding process.
d. Cooling time and drilling of hole

Cooling time:
1. At the end of the fusion carefully remove the black and red terminals from
the fitting.
2. Mark on the coupler the exact hour when the coupler can be removed
(adding the correct cooling time to the exact hour when the fusion was
completed).
3. Dismantle the clamps and rerounding equipment only at the end of
the cooling time. After cooling, drill the outlet hole using a hole saw tool.

Compatibility of Pexgol Flanges
Table 58.1 describes the compatibility of each flange. Useful dimensions are also presented in the table. The flanges
were designed to be compatible with most existing flange standards. Therefore, most of the bolt holes are oval and
slightly oversized.
Complete drawing of flanges according to any required standard are prepared on request. Flanges according to other
flange standards can be supplied by special order. Split flanges of all flange standards are supplied by special order.

Pexgol Reducers with Flared Ends and Flanges
The working pressures and temperatures of the Pexgol

spigot reducers are the same as for the d1 side of the
reducer. Pexgol reducers are supplied with flared ends,
with or without flanges. If supplied without flanges, use
split flanges that can be installed later by the end user.
The split flanges can be supplied by Golan or by the
end user.
The max. length of each flared end is specified as L1
or L2 according to table 60.1 or any length until the
minimum length L in table 56.1.

Fixpoint Bridge
Pullout protection of end couplings and other fittings

L1
To ensure the pull-out resistance of certain fittings, do
not lay the pipe perfectly straight, but rather with some
surplus length (slack). In case of short pipes (up to about
10 meters), or in case of installations on pipe bridges
(where it might be difficult to leave slack in the pipe), there H1 A
should be a Pull-out protection device such as a fixpoint
clamp before and after every fitting.
This applies to some of the fittings; depending on the
application. Design Guidelines. If the pipe is installed
in a an inclined or a vertical position (for example in
dewatering applications) and common fixpoint clamps
cannot be used, the fitting should be protected by a
floating fixpoint device such as a fixpoint bridge.

after waiting three cooling times (3x).
See page 35 (Non-Restrained Fittings and Pullout
6.3 See Non-restrained fittings page 35.
Prevention Techniques).
Bending the Pipes

Use a suitable device, such as a winch or a lever, to
bend the pipes. Remember that the pipe is rigid and
considerable force is required for bending and fixing
it for example, 2 tons for a 110mm pipe and 5 tons for
a 280mm pipe. Please exercise caution!
Bend the pipe carefully to avoid kinking. For best results,
it is recommended to prepare a continuous support (with
the radius of the pipe to be bent) for the pipe. Then bend
the pipe against it.
The installation is complicated since it is difficult to
calculate in advance the exact length of the pipe. As
a result, on-site adaptation (field welding) is necessary.
Proper installation procedure:

1. The longer arm of the natural bend is more flexible
than the shorter arm; therefore, always choose the
longer arm as the pipe end whose length is adjusted.
2. Install the fitting onto the end of the shorter arm.
3. Connect the shorter arm to the existing counter-
flange.
4. If necessary, install a fixpoint clamp before the
fitting to protect it during bending.
4.1 If the fitting is an electrofusion fitting, wait three
cooling times (3x) before continuing with the
next step.
5. Adjust the length of the longer arm.
6. Cut the length and install the fitting.
6.1 If the fitting is an electrofusion fitting with a
stub-end (flared end) connection, perform
the welding when the flared end is free (not
connected to the counter-flange). Connect
the flared end & flange to the counter-flange
only after waiting three cooling times (3x).

excessive heat buildup due to exposure to

3.2 For installation above the ground, test pressures
in the table 77.1. Take into consideration that
the pipe might be heated due to exposure to
sunlight.
3.3 Take into consideration changes in the pipeline
topography (which could create higher local
pressure due to a water column); reduce the
test pressure accordingly.
4. Pressure testing:
4.1 Bring the pressure to the level of the test
pressure (see table 77.1) and then close the
feeding line.
4.2 As the pipe is flexible and tends to expand its
diameter under pressure, the line pressure is
expected to decrease.
4.3 Increase the line pressure again, up to the test
pressure.
4.4 With each cycle of pressure reduction and
increase, the pressure is expected to decrease
less.
5. After 3-4 cycles, open the valve and close it
immediately ,rapidly lowering the pressure to
approx. 75% of the test pressure by letting water
out of the line.
5.1 After closing the valve, the pressure is expected
to increase as a result of the tendency of the
pipe to decrease its volume.
5.2 If the pressure decreases instead of increasing,
investigate the reason for pressure loss, for
example, leakages at the fittings.

Transportation of Pexgol Pipes
An outstanding feature of the Pexgol pipe is its flexibility, due to the cross-linked structure. This structure enables
the pipe to return to its original diameter after transportation on relatively small drums or in coils. As a result,
Golan is able to supply longer lengths of pipe, compared to other suppliers and types of pipes. Pexgol pipes can
be shipped in coils, drums, and straight sections.
Coils
Pexgol pipes from diameters 25mm to 160mm are
available in standard coils of 50 or 100 meters. Longer
pipe lengths are available in coils according to customer
specifications. OD
