ULTRASTRESS PROTECT TRACER
PE100-RC wastewater pipes with integrated signal wires
EN 12201-2, PAS 1075 type 3, DN/OD 32-630 [mm]
ULTRASTRESS PROTECT TRACER wastewater pressure pipes made from PE100-RC material with integrated signal wires and added polypropylene (PP) protective layer.
By using TRACER products it is possible to determine the exact location and depth of the pipeline construction and to trace the constructed pipeline without additional earthwork. |
PE100-RC material pipes are resistant to the long-term expansion of cracks, scratching, and point-type loads. Point-type loads are especially common during the assembly of the pipelines using trenchless installation methods (for instance, as a result of friction against the stones that are present in the soil). In the case of a point-type load, tension, and plastic deformations are produced in the material, which may cause cracks in the internal surface of the pipe.
PE100-RC pipes with PP coating provide additional durability against scratching in cases of especially complex installation, for
instance, while burst lining.

Construction methods
For traditional (open trench) installation:
- In open trenches without bedding and filling according to EN 1610, ENV 1046, EN 12327, EN 12007-2 (does not apply to soil-filled in around the pipe)
For alternative installation methods:
- Laying into the soil with a plough or a milling cuter according to EN 1610, ENV 1046, EN 12327, EN 12007-2 (does not apply to soil-filled around the pipe)
- Horizontal directional drilling according to EN 12889, EN 14457
Horizontal directional drilling is used for the construction of new or the reconstruction of old pipelines. The old
pipelines can remain fully functional during the reconstruction. Only short term interruptions of work may occur in order to
perform new connections. The use of this method is suitable for areas where trench works must be avoided due to, for instance:
water bodies, roads and railroads, squares, buildings, etc.- Drawing into the old pipe (relining) according to EN 12889, EN 14457
The relining method is used for the reconstruction of old pipelines. ULTRASTRESS pipe with a slightly smaller diameter is drawn into the
old pipe. This method is used in several cases of reconstruction. Only the beginning of the pipeline span has to be reconstructed
and junctions of the pipe are excavated during the works.- Burst lining according to EN 12889, EN 14457
Burst lining is used if the old pipeline is heavily deformed or its diameter does not conform with the new requirements. A hydraulic burst
head is used as the guide, which builds the way for the new pipe. The specific nature of the method permits the drawing in of a
pipe of the same diameter or larger than the existing one. Advantages of the method:- Reconstruction of easily bursting pipes made of materials like ceramic, concrete, cast iron, polymer, steel, etc. is possible.
- The flow rate parameters of the new pipe are higher or equal to the throughput capacity of the reconstructed pipe (drawing
in of a pipe with a larger diameter is possible). - Compact equipment permits operation in restricted conditions.
Pipe welding operations:
Buttfusion welding should be carried out according to ISO 12176-1 standard requirements.
Electrofusion jointing should be carried out according to ISO 12176-2 standard requirements.
