| Rehau |
At Rehau all types of pipes are subjected to continuous quality control and undergo a various number of tests and long term trials to maintain the high quality of Rehau pipes. In order to determine acceptable long term stress levels, it is necessary to investigate mechanical behaviour over a long period of time and at different temperatures. Many tests are undertaken at Rehau to ensure that the quality of their materials is second to none. Burst Testing 
In burst testing, Rehau pipes are subjected to increasing pressure in a test frame until the pipes burst, and tests show that bursting pressure is about seven times more than maximum operating pressure. Endurance Testing The use of pipes in domestic installations requires a lifespan of 50 years or more. In order to be able to detect even long term effects due to e.g. temperature fluctuations, pressure and mechanical stresses, Rehau pipes are exposed in long term tests to extreme temperature and pressure conditions and periodically tested with other testing methods. 
These procedures ensure that the quality name of genuine German made Rehau RAUPINK lives up to the everyday stresses of an underfloor application or a standard hydronic heating installation, which in turn, leaves you with piece of mind. |
