The blue line
Blue is KE KELIT´s company colour and
conjures up the following associations:
The preciousness of blue water:
Clean water is becoming ever more precious.
The surface of metal pipes are being destroyed by ever more aggressive ions.
The durability of blue sapphire:
Symbolic of value, durability and eternity.
The reliability of blue chip:
On the fast moving share markets a synonym for ”safe bet”, or ”market leader” or
”recommended purchase” or ”no risk”
Lines are associated with continuity,
direction and connections.
The colours, design and marking of the
products are regulated by various national
standards. KE KELIT products are easily
identified by the ”blue line” marking on
the product.

Drinking water
problems
Operating conditions
Corrosion
PN16 = 20°C/16 bar; 60°C/8 bar
● The concentration of ions in drinking
PN10 = 20°C/10 bar;
water is increasing and consequently the risk of using metal pipes:
Chlorides: attack stainless steel
Sulphates: attack galvanised steel
Nitrates: attack copper
● Ever more problematic sources
of water reserves have to be tapped for the supply of drinking water
● Acid rain reduces the pH value of surface and spring water to critical levels below 7 (=neutral).
External corrosion occurs as a result of new building and insulation materials
and new installation methods.
● Disinfectants (chlorine, ozone)
attack copper in particular. Poisonous
Cu ions are released into the water!
PN20 = 20°C/20 bar; 70°C/8 bar
PN10, PN16 and PN20
● Cold water: d20 – d160 mm
Hot water: d20 – d110 mm
● Resistant to internal and external Internal corrosion - Cu
● Hard water causes incrustation on
the inside walls of metal materials.

External corrosion - Steel
● Higher pressure losses
● Reduced flow
●Blockages
● Expensive repair work
● Disruptions in the water supply

The long-life plastic
The raw material is a polypropylene
copolymer (PP.R) with its typical quality
characteristics (DIN 8077, DIN 8078).
Every material is subject to ageing.
PP-R is no exception to this rule of nature.
The ”long-term creep curves”, which are
determined by temperature and stress,
are proof of the long service life
(see page 13 for operating conditions).
●
KELIT technology has made KELEN pipes particularly resistant to impact at –5°C.
●
Pipes and fittings are made
of the same raw material.
Metal adaptor
fittings
Special care has been taken over the
choice and quality control of the metal
threads.
(MS 63, CZ 132) for all parts transporting water ensures high resistance against aggressive water.
● A pore-free, chemically applied
metal plating prevents stress corrosion cracking.
● Metal parts which are not in contact with the media are generally made of metal-plated MS 58 brass.
● Exceptional resistance to torsion force and suitable for on-site conditions
● Depth of the thread conforms to
DIN 1692 for normal faucets

The effect
Drinking water pipes made of PP-R are
winning an ever bigger share of the world
market as the best possible alternative to
metal pipes which are subject to corrosion.
The appropriate institutions (DIN,CEN, ISO)
lay down the minimum standards.
KE KELIT does more than merely meet
the minimum standards. KE KELIT provides
solutions to specific economic and technical
problems such as the heat loss in piping
systems.
There is a much lower heat loss through
KELEN hot water pipes than through metal
pipes as a result of the vastly different heat
conductivity of the materials
(PP-R λ = 0.24 W/m°C; Copper λ= 320
W/m°C; Steel λ= 42 W/m°C ).
This fact alone is not sufficient for KE KELIT
who have gone a step further.
KELEN without LX …

The difference between the heat loss
through non-insulated and insulated
KELEN pipes over the period of a year
shows that there is a remarkable potential
for savings.

The following formula is used to calculate the heat loss:
Amortisation calculation
The heat loss calculated above must be compensated by the permanent supply of extra
energy. Depending on the source of energy
(electricity, oil, gas or geothermic energy)
the costs will increase considerably.
● The extra costs of the insulation
is re-paid within WEEKS.
● The total cost of the piping and
Example
1KWh of electricity: e 0.06 – 0.15
1KWh of oil/gas: e 0.04 – 0.08
If we assume that the average energy
cost is e 0.075/KWh then the reduction
in heat loss of 297 KWh by installing the
insulated LX4 pipe will provide savings
amounting to: e 22.28 /year.
16
By comparing the costs
you can make the following
conclusions:
the insulation is re-paid within
a few MONTHS
● This represents a rate of return
which cannot be matched by
any other form of investment
or shares.

The six ways of
joining the pipes
A wide range of safe and secure methods
for joining the pipes is essential for a pipe
system.
KE KELIT has a comprehensive range of
fittings for each method of joining.
1. Polyfusion welding
Principle:
Fusion welding occurs when a
large area of the outside of
the pipe and the inside of the
socket are welded together
A wide range of welding
fittings is available
3.
All KELEN polyfusion fittings from
d20 to d110 are rated PN20.
They can be used for welding to
pipes of all pressure ratings.

KELEN® polyfusion
welding with the
hand welding machine
Welding times
1. The pipes and fittings are joined by
polyfusion welding at 260°C. The welding
machines and tools are self-regulating.
Just connect to the electricity supply (230V)
and wait:
The red light indicates that the machine is
connected to the electricity supply.
When the green light goes out the welding
temperature has been reached.
Work can begin.
Measure the length of pipe
required and cut the pipe with the appropriate pipe cutter (up to d40 with the pipe
shears;
up to d110 with the wheel pipe cutter).
1.1
1.1Before welding the KELIT ALU
composite pipe sufficient aluminium
must be removed by the peeler to allow
the pipe to be welded to the full depth of
the socket. The colourless medium pipe is
clearly distinctive from the protective
covering.
Important: There should be no aluminium
in the welding area. Make a visual check
before welding!
The pipe can then be welded to the fittings
in the same way as the standard KELEN
pipe.
2.1
The welding procedure
2. Ensure that the surface of the pipes
are clean and free of grease
2.1 Measure the depth of the socket
and mark the insertion depth on the pipe
accordingly.
20
2.2 The heating time (see table) begins
when the full insertion depth of the pipe
and the whole of the socket in the fitting
have been pushed on to the welding tools.
2.3 The heating time varies according to
the pipe size (see table).
Once the heating time has elapsed push
the pipe and fitting together smoothly and
evenly without delay. The result is a homogeneous and strong joint.
2.4Three lines on the pipe (90° apart)
act as a guide for making a straight joint.
2.5The position of the fitting can be
adjusted for a few seconds immediately
after the pipe and fitting have been joined.
A short time later (see table) the joint
is capable of withstanding operating
conditions.
3. The low weight and high flexibility
of the material makes it possible to weld
whole sections of the piping at the work
bench. Take advantage of this and save
a lot of time.
4.
4. Make sure that any joints which still
need to made in the wall are positioned so
that they are accessible with the welding
machine.
5. The distance between the draw-off
points at the wall can be set (for all common
installations) both horizontally and
vertically using a template equipped with
a spirit level.
5.
6. The pipes should be insulated according
to the relevant national standards.

Polyfusion welding
of KELEN®-LX pipes
with the hand
welding machine
Important!
The bubble structure and the good
grip make it easy to pull back the
insulation.
Pressing the insulation to the pipe
can prevent the insulation from
slipping back
4. SENSO pipe detection
The SENSO properties of the LX
insulation allows the system to be located
up to a maximum depth of 80 mm in the
wall.
The following guidelines apply for
all pre-insulated KELEN-LX pipes.
4.1 Follow the instructions for the detector.
Point 1. is identical to the instructions
for non-insulated pipes on pages 20 and 21
4.2 Locate where the pipe is running both
horizontally and vertically within a radius
of 50 cm from the place where the hole is
going to be drilled.
2. Exposing the ends of the pipes
Welding KELEN®
saddle fittings
2.1 For short lengths of pipes the welding
area can be exposed by simultaneously
supporting the pipe on a bench and
pushing back the insulation.
1. The surface of the pipes and saddle
fittings should be free of grease, clean
and dry.
2. A hole is drilled in the pipe using
a 24 mm saddle drill.
2.2 For longer lengths of pipes one hand
holds the pipe while the other hand pushes
back the insulation
2.3 For especially long lengths of pipe it
may be easier if the hands are crossed over.
2.4 It is NOT necessary to cut the insulation.
3. The welding procedure and welding
times are identical to point 2. of the
instructions for the standard KELEN pipe.
22
3. The pipe wall and the saddle fitting
are heated simultaneously with the specially
designed welding tools for approx. 30 sec.
4. Once the heating time is over the saddle
fitting is pushed into the pipe wall immediately (do not twist!) and pressed for approx.
30 sec. The melting of both the pipe wall
and the pipe surface ensures a strong
homogenous joint. After approx. 10 minutes the joint can be subjected to operating
conditions.

1. Screw the required heating
elements to the welding plate.
The length of the heating element varies
according to the size of the pipe and the
section of pipe to be welded.
4. Set the pipe diameter switch to
the required size. This switch regulates
the length of the pipe that will be welded
into the socket
2. One side of the pipe clamps can
be used for small pipe sizes (d20 – d40).
For larger sizes (d50 – d90) the clamps
should be turned around.
3. The same principle applies for the
fittings clamps.

Type 2: d25 – 125 mm
1. Fix the fitting in the clamp and the
fitting holder. Ensure that the face of the
fitting is flat against the clamp.
1.1 Put the pipe in the pipe clamp.
Do not tighten the clamp.
1.2 Hold down the spacing button and move
the sliding blocks together using the hand
wheel until the pipe is touching the fitting or
the sliding blocks can no longer move
1.3 Release the spacing button.
Only now fix the pipe in the clamp.
2. Move the sliding blocks apart and
pull down the welding plate.
2.1 Move the sliding blocks together
until they are stopped by the lock

3.2 Insert the heating element (temp:
approx. 210 °C). Press the pipe ends on
the heating element and apply the pressure
as defined in 3.1 until a bead forms around
the complete circumference of the pipe.
During the heating time the pressure
must be reduced to the heating pressure.
Once the heating time is over move the
sliding blocks apart rapidly and remove the
heating element.
IMPORTANT:
The pipes ends cannot be touched and
must be welded immediately.
If this is impossible and the welding has
to be done later then the welding surface
has to be cleaned and any grease
removed.
3.3 The change-over time (time between
removing the heating element and welding the
pipes) should be as short as possible.
3.4 The welding pressure should be built
up as smoothly as possible during the time
given in the table (minimum: 0.15 N/mm2)
3.5 The welding pressure must be
maintained during the cooling time.
Never cool the joint abruptly.
If the weld has been done correctly a
double bead should be visible around the
whole circumference of the pipe.

1.1 To provide extra support the pipe should
be clamped close to a pipe bracket
1.2 A pole can be placed under the centre
of gravity to support the machine if necessary.
1.3 The pipe should protrude far enough
out of the pipe clamp to ensure that the pipe
can be fully welded into the socket of the
fitting but also allow enough space for the
welding plate.
The space between the pipe and the
fitting when the sliding block has been
completely rolled back should be
approx. 100 to 150 mm.
2. Put the fitting in the clamp and support
the fitting with the fixing elbow. The fitting
must have sufficient room to move sideways
so that the whole of the socket can be welded.
3. Put the welding plate between the pipe
and fitting. Turn the hand wheel to move the
pipe and fitting on to the welding tools. Heat

Pipe sizing
Pressure losses in
KELEN®pipes
Calculation of the pressure loss (Z)
for the standard fittings
The total pressure loss (∆p) in the KELEN®pipe
system is calculated by multiplying the friction
loss (R) by the length of the piping (l) plus the
sum (∑) of the friction losses for the individual
fittings (Z).
∆p = (I · R + ∑Z) in Pa
The choice of pipe size for the water
supply is dependent on the following
factors:
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
The available water pressure
Geodetic difference in height
Pressure losses through system
components
Minimum flow pressure through faucets
Pressure losses in the pipes
The individual pressure losses of the fittings
Type, number and simultaneous use of the draw-off points
Flow velocity
Note:
For the purpose of pipe sizing it is assumed
that that there will be no reduction in the
internal diameter caused by incrustation
since the surface structure of the pipe is
amorphous and the surface roughness of
the pipe is minimal (0,007).

Guidelines for circulating pipe systems
(DIN 1988–300)
For hygienic reasons the circulating system
should be designed so that the temperature
at any point in the system is no lower than
5K below the operating temperature.
The power of the pump and the regulation of the temperature are designed so that
the temperature does not fall below 55°C at
any point in the system. For economic reasons the flow velocity in circulating systems
should be approx.. 0.2– 0.5 m/s and in
exceptional circumstances up to a maximum
of 1.0 l/s.
Guidelines for pipe
sizing (DIN 1988-300)
1. Determining the calculated flow rate
and minimum flow pressures of the
outlet fittings
The calculated flow rate V̇R is an adopted outlet fitting flow value in the calculation rate. The
guidance values of the calculated flow rates of
common fixtures are included in the table.
The calculated flow rate V̇R (as an average
value) is obtained from the following equation:
V̇R = V̇min + V̇max
2
2. Determining total flows and
allocating them to the sections
The calculated flow rates are to be added contrary to the flow direction – always at the farthest sampling point and ending at the supply
line – the total flow rates achieved in this way
are then to be allocated to the corresponding
sections. The part route in question begins with
the mold piece on which the cumulative flow or
the diameter changes.
The total flow rates (cold and hot
water) are to be added to the cold
water line branch point which heads
to the drinking water heater.
3. Application of the conversion curve
from the total flow to the peak flow
During calculation of the line systems, it is absolutely necessary that all sampling points be
applied with their calculated flow rates.
An exception to this is when a second sink, a
bathtub with a shower unit, a bidet, a urinal or
nozzles in toilet facilities vestibules are included in a usage unit (NE). These are not taken
into account in the total flow.
4. Simultaneity depending on
building type
The calculation of the peak flow depends on the
total flow; the simultaneity of the water outlet
depends on how the building is used (e.g. flats,
hotels etc.).
Generally it is not expected that all connected
outlets will ever be fully open at once.
On Pages 40 and 41 you will find the conversion curves for the various building types.
5. Select pipe diameter
Pipe diameters and pipe friction pressure gradients and all corresponding calculated flow rates
must be determined. (Pressure loss diagrams:
Page 37 to 39).
6. Pressure loss compared with
available pressure
The total pressure loss for the determined pipe
diameter should reach the existing pressure
difference, but not exceed it.

36
Important note:
Notes:
The valves manufacturers must specify the minimum flow
pressure and the fittings flow rates calculations (VR). The
manufacturer’s information absolutely must be considered when measuring the pipe diameter – if it lies above the values listed in the table, then the drinking water
installation must be sized according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Equal-type outlets and devices not
included in the table with flow rates
or minimum flow pressures that are
greater than those listed must also
be taken into account according to
the manufacturer’s instructions.

Usage units (NE)
Permanent consumers
A room with outlets in residential buildings
(e.g. bath, kitchen, utility room) or in non-residential buildings (in the event that the recognised use is similar to that of a flat).
The flow of permanent consumers is added to
the peak flow of the other outlets. Permanent
consumers are defined as water outlets which
last longer than 15 min e.g. garden blast valve.
Therefore, the peak flow in each leg of a NE is,
at maximum, equal to the total flow of the two
biggest outlets installed in the leg (also applies
in cases within an NE where the calculation indicates a smaller flow).
If a second NE is attached to a leg (e.g. in the
riser), then the values of the peak rates of the

and in the floor distribution of NE‘s are too
high; this is because, normally, no more than

defined with the operator. The multiple peak
flow rates of the series system must to be
added up if they could both occur at once.
Special buildings, commercial and
industrial facilities
With special buildings (other than those indicated above), including industry buildings, agriculture buildings, gardening buildings, slaughterhouses, dairies, shops, laundries, large kitchens,
public baths etc. the peak flow must be determined from the total flow in co-operation with
the facilities operator. The peak flows of the
sub-zones of the drinking water installation
must be added up if they coincide.

Under heat conditions all materials

Calculation of the linear expansion:
∆l = I · ∆t· α
The linear expansion is determined
by the length of the pipe, the increase
in temperature and the coefficient
of expansion.
It is not determined by the diameter

Compensation must be made for the

conditions.
Even if the rise in temperature is only for
a short time sufficient compensation must
be made for this temperature difference
Compensation is always made between
two fixed points or between a fixed point
and a change in direction of the piping
(expansion arm).

Force of heat

The force of linear expansion is different
for each material. The specific force of heat
expansion is calculated according to the
following formula:
Ft = E · A · α · Δt

Comparison of the materials:
If unhindered KELEN® pipes will
expand more than metal materials
under the influence of heat. The

Piping that is embedded in the
wall or the floor is prevented from
expansion by frictional force.
No extra measures are required.

a short time sufficient compensation must
be made for this temperature difference

Pipe channels may be used to increase
the stability of the pipe.
The expansion is reduced to the same
value as steel pipes.
The strength of the fixed points should
be sufficient to compensate the expansion
force.
The specific expansion can be minimised by
installing the KELIT ALU composite pipe
(d20 – d90), especially on long pipelines.
This pipe reduces the expansion by
approx. 75%.
Every change in temperature will exert
a force.
> An expansion force will occur when
the temperature rises.
< A shrinking force will occur when
the temperature falls.
The force of expansion can be calculated
for every installation. However, in general the force is just a fraction of the
force which occurs with metal materials.
Suppliers of pipe clamps and brackets know
the properties of the materials and offer a
range of solutions.

Installing KELEN®
3. Exposed piping
1. Installing the pipes in the shaft
In practise the main risers can expand and contract laterally
in the shaft between two floors if a fixed point is located next
to the pipe that branches off from the main pipe. The distance
between two fixed points should not exceed 3 m. Other methods
can be used to accommodate expansion such as an expansion
arm in the pipe branching off from the riser.
3.1 Preventing expansion by
mechanical restraint d20–d50
For aesthetic reasons KELEN ALU pipes
are often preferred for exposed pipes
below d63. Greater stability can be
obtained by installing the pipes in steel
channels.
2. Embedding the pipe
In order to achieve this stability all of the
pipes must be supported by pipe channels
and all of the brackets must be fastened
tightly to the pipe to make them fixed
points. In addition the channels are fixed
to the pipe (e.g. using cable ties) except
for the sizes d20, d25 and d32 as the
channels for these sizes are self-locking.
This method reduces the linear expansion
to the same amount as steel.
Piping that is embedded in the wall, floor screed etc. …
is prevented from linear expansion. The material can absorb
the pressure and tensile stress without causing any damage.
If the pipes are insulated then the insulation material provides
further room for expansion.
3.2 Expansion loops d 63–110
Guidelines for distance between pipe
support points
The distances between the support points given below (in cm)
prevent KELEN® pipes from sagging when they are filled with
water and there are NO pipe channels.

All changes in the direction of the pipe
can be used to accommodate the linear
expansion. In some cases an expansion
loop will be necessary.
The fixed points are arranged so that the
piping is divided into sections and the
expansion force can be guided in the
desired direction. See pages 42 –45 for
the calculations of the length of the
expansion arm.

Technical rules
for drinking water
Heat insulation for
potable water pipes
Assuming that the design and installation
has been done professionally we
recommend that the following guidelines
are followed.
Drinking water pipes (cold)
Cold water pipes need to be insulated
against warming and condensation.
It must be ensured that the water quality
is not reduced as a result of the water
warming.
Rinsing
Sound control
After pressure testing the drinking water
pipes must be rinsed.
Depending on the size of the installation
and how the piping is run the system
should be rinsed in sections from the
bottom to the top.
Each riser is rinsed in turn and the length
of piping should not exceed 100 m.
DIN 1988/2, table 10, specifies the
minimum number of draw-off points that
have to be opened. Under normal
circumstances all draw-off points should
be opened. The rinsing time depends on
the length of piping and should not be
less than 15 seconds for each metre of
pipe. The rinsing time at each draw-off
point should be at least 2 minutes. After
the pipe has been rinsed for approx. 2
minutes at the last draw-off point all the
draw-off points are closed in the reverse
order to which they were opened.
DIN 4109 recommends the following
measures:
l Use low-sound faucets
l Avoid direct contact between pipes
and other sound transmitting
bodies when fixing the pipe.
l
l
l
l
Avoid high pressures and high
flow velocities
Special measures should be taken
for sound sensitive areas
KELEN LX pipes
(4 mm or 9 mm insulation)
The bubble structure of the insulation
provides excellent protection against
sound transmission.
The high strength of the insulation
cover provides a long term
barrier between the pipe and other
sound transmitters.

Drinking water pipes (hot)
We recommend that hot water pipes are
insulated in accordance with DIN 1988/2.
If there is no requirement for hot water
in circulation it is usually possible to do
without insulation for pipes up to 25 mm.
Even thin insulation reduces the
heat loss considerably!
See pages 16 and 17.

Summary of the
instruction guidelines
1.
The KELEN® pipe
system is made of
plastic and needs to be
treated carefully to
prevent shocks and impact on the pipe
during transportation, storage and
installation.
2.
Protect the pipes,
fittings and
components from
lengthy exposure to
direct UV radiation from the sun.
The usual time required for storage and
installation will have no effect on the
material as it is stabilised against UV rays
but the material is not resistant to long term
UV exposure.
3.
The welding machines
are regulated to
operate at 260° C.
Welding times
are based on an ambient temperature
of 20°C.
If the ambient temperature changes the
time required to push the pipe and fitting
on to the heating elements (before the
heating time begins) may alter slightly.
54
4.
Any corrections to the
alignment of pipe and
fitting up to a
maximum of 5 must
be made during the welding procedure
(see pages 18 – 25 for the permissible
time for adjustments). Any later corrections
will damage the joint.
5.
Do NOT screw any
threaded pipes or any
cast iron fittings into
the female threads of
the metal moulded fittings.
Only join to faucets and components with
straight threads. The threaded joint can
be sealed by the usual methods (hemp,
paste, tape …).
Do not over twist the threads.
6.
The expansion of
KELEN® pipes is
clearly defined and
must be accounted for
in the design and installation of the system.
Please refer to pages 42– 47 regarding
the methods of accommodating the
expansion of exposed piping
• KELIT Alu composite pipe (page 14)
• Pipe channels (page 47)
• Expansion loops (pages 42 and 43)
For longer sections of piping the fixed
points can be located in such a way that
the system is split into expansion zones.
Suppliers of pipe clamps and brackets
offer a wide range of solutions.
7.
Avoid using heat to
bend the pipes
(it is possible to bend
the cold pipe to a
radius of 8 x d). If the pipe has to be heated
then only use hot air. Never heat
the pipe with a naked flame!
Maximum temperature for bending
the pipe: 140°C
8.
Try to make the joints
for standard sections
of piping at the work
bench before they are
installed. This saves time
and increases the security of the system.
9.
Once the system has
been installed it
should be subjected to
pressure testing.
You can copy pages 48 and 49 of the
catalogue to make a test report.
10.
• A temperature of
90°C for short periods
of time is NO problem
for KELEN®. Higher
temperatures over longer periods of time should be avoided. The
pipe system is suited for thermal disinfection.
• The gradual or continual (max. 6 months)
disinfection of the pipe system with chlorine
dioxide, chlorine or ozone is only permitted
for the cold water system and after consultation with KE KELIT.
• Excessive concentrations are not only
threatening to health they can also cause
premature ageing of pipe systems.
• Copper und copper ions have a destabilising effect and their presence in the system
should be avoided.
11.
The following
precautions can be
made to ensure that
the maximum
operating temperature is not exceeded:
• Monitor and regulate solar energy
storage.
• Check the electric connections to the hot
water storage before the system is
operated.
• We recommend installing in the hot
water piping a mixer valve which is
regulated by the boiler.
12.
In order to qualify for
guarantee cover each
installation must use
KELEN® system parts
only.
13.
In order to install the
KELEN® system
correctly a minimal
amount of
expenditure is required for tools For your
own security we recommend that you use
and maintain the tried and trusted tools.
14.
If you are in doubt do
not hesitate to consult
our technicians.
There is not always a
perfect solution but we can always help.
