Molecular Orientation, a revolution in PVC

TOM® PVC-O pipes are the most advanced pipes for the conveyance of
high-pressure water currently available on the market, with a number
of exceptional features for this kind of application, thanks to the process of
Molecular Orientation.
PVC is essentially an amorphous polymer in which the molecules are located

randomly. However, under certain conditions of pressure, temperature
and speed, by stretching the material, it is possible to orient the polymer
molecules in the same direction as which the material has been stretched.
Depending on the process parameters used and mostly stretch ratio, a

Process the Orientation
The Molecular Orientation process modifies the PVC’s structure by giving the polymer’s
molecules a linear orientation.
A plastic with unbeatable properties
The process of Molecular Orientation greatly enhances PVC’s physical and

mechanical properties and gives it a number of exceptional features,
without altering the advantages and properties of the original polymer.
Thereby it is obtained a plastic with unbeatable qualities in terms of
resistance to traction and fatigue, flexibility and impact resistance.
When used in high-pressure water pipelines this type of piping has a high
resistance and an extremely long lifetime. Moreover, the pipe is highly
energy-efficient and eco-friendly not only for the way it is made but also
because of its subsequent use. Other advantages include reductions in costs and
installation times.
For all these reasons, TOM® PVC-O pipes are the best solution for medium
TOM® pipes
and high pressure water networks for irrigation systems, potable water
supply, fire extinguishing networks and pumping systems, among other
applications.

The most eco-friendly pipes with the environment

The environmental impact of a piping system depends on its composition and application thereof,
being the type of raw material used, the production process, the finished product and the pipe’s life
expectancy, the main factors that determine the efficiency and sustainability throughout their life cycle.
TOM® PVC-O is the most environmentally friendly solution existing on the market, due to its best
contribution to the correct sustainable development of the planet, as it has been demonstrated by
different studies worldwide, since they present environmental benefits at all stages of their life cycle;
thus resulting in the most efficient from the energy point of view.

Sustainability
TOM® is a sustainable pipe, in which design it has been taken into account the preservation
of the environment considering aspects such as energy saving, sustainable use of natural
resources, durability of the works and environmental friendliness of the materials used.
As always at the forefront, Molecor, following the last common methodology for calculating
the Recommendation 179/2013/EC proposed by the European Commission for the Study of Product
Environmental Footprint (PEF) has evaluated the environmental impact of the TOM® pipe at all stages
of its life cycle from cradle to grave, ie from the extraction of raw materials to the final disposal of the
product, through manufacture, distribution and use of the pipes.
According to this, it has been studied the effect of the TOM® pipe on 14 environmental impacts
that are grouped based on the condition to the different means:

TOM®: The best choice

for high-pressure fluid transport
Unbeatable impact resistance
TOM® pipes have a high resistance to shock. This means that are
minimized breakages during installation or during on-site trials
caused by dropping or by impacts from stones.
Furthermore, Molecular Orientation prevents the propagation of

cracks and scratches and eliminates the risk of rapid crack behaviour.
The result is a spectacular increase in the product’s useful life.
High short- and long-term hydrostatic resistance
TOM® pipes offer a resistance to internal pressure of up to two

times the nominal pressure (32 bar in PN16 bar pipes or 400
psi in PN200 psi), which means that they can bear sporadic excessive
pressure such as water hammers and other malfunctions in the network.
Moreover, the material creep behavior is very low, ensuring the

durability of the pipe working at nominal pressure for over a hundred
years.
Excellent response to water hammers
TOM® pipes offer lower celerity than other piping systems (four
times less than ductile iron pipes), which means less water
hammers caused by sudden variations in water volume and pressure.
This reduces and almost eliminates the possibility of breakage
during opening and closing in the water network and when pumping
gets under way, protecting every component of the network.
Increased hydraulic capacity
Molecular Orientation widens the inner section of the pipe,

giving TOM® pipes a higher internal diameter and greater flow
The impact of a 500 kg rock dropped
from a height of 3 metres leaves a section. Also, the internal surface is extremely smooth, reducing load loss
TOM® pipe completely unscathed. and making it more difficult for deposits to be formed on the inner walls.
As a result, TOM® pipes offer between 15% - 40% more hydraulic

capacity than pipes made from other materials and with the same
external dimensions.

A DVA NTAGES • • •
Maximum flexibility
Thanks to their excellent elasticity, TOM® pipes can bear big

deformations of their internal diameter. When crushed, or in
the event of a mechanical accident, TOM® pipes immediately go back
to its original shape, thus minimizing the risk of potential breakage by soil
subsidence or sharp edges on rocks or machinery, for example. And thanks
to their considerable capacity for bearing heavy loads, TOM® pipes ensure
optimum performance once laid underground.
Completely corrosion-resistant
Oriented PVC is immune to corrosion and to natural chemical

substances, as well as to aggression from micro- and macro-
organisms. TOM® pipes, therefore, are not degradable. Moreover, they
do not require any type of special protection or coating, which means
cost-savings.
Total water quality TOM® pipes will take any kind of

deformation without suffering
The quality of the fluid that circulates in TOM® pipes will always structural damage.
remain unaltered, given that the material neither suffers corrosion

nor migrations within the pipes or in their coating. Mandatory tests such
as those made according to the Spanish Law, RD 140/2003, show that the
excellent qualities of these pipes comply with the required health standards
for water for human consumption.
TOM® pipes also comply with other sanitary certifications that demonstrate
its suitability for being used with water for human consumption, such as
ACS, WRAS or DWI, certifications in accordance with the health legislation in
force in France and the United Kingdom respectively.
Completely water-tight Locked-in ring seals ensure a

perfect water-tight fit.
Joints are 100 percent watertight and are guaranteed not to displace
once the pipes have been installed. TOM® pipes are easy to join and
can be installed by lower-qualified workers.
Lower cost and easier installation
TOM® PVC-O pipes are lighter and easier to handle than other pipes
made from other materials: in most cases, handling does not require
machinery. Beside this, due to the easiness of their union, flexibility and
impact resistance these pipes allow higher cost effectiveness, performance
and installation speed in comparison with pipes of other materials.
TOM® pipes are extremely
lightweight.

Hydraulic capacity
Water pipes requirements are not only related to pressure resistance; they also have to transport
the highest amount of water while consuming the least energy. TOM® pipes walls are thinner
than conventional plastic ones and are on their inside smoother than metals, which means that a greater
hydraulic capacity is attained.

Water Hammer
Water hammers occur when liquid flowing through piping stops suddenly when a valve is opened
or closed, if a pump is stopped or started or by airlocks shifting within the pipe. Water hammers
can result in an higher overpressure than the pipe´s working pressure and lead it to breakage, specially
when the pipe has already been damaged by impacts or corrosion.
Water hammers (P) depend on the celerity (a), which is the wave speed, and the fluid’s change of speed
(V). The celerity depends basically on the pipe’s dimensions (the relationship between the external
diameter and the minimum thickness) and the specifications of the material with which the tube is made
(Young’s modulus, E).

Joints and Watertight Seals
The connection is done by introducing the male part of the pipe in the
socket of the other where the elastic joint is placed. The watetight seal
includes a Polypropylene ring and a synthetic rubber lip which allows the
seal to be integrated with the pipe, avoiding joint displacement or
movement while the installation is taking place.

Fittings
TAPPING SADDLES
Allow connecting the pipe in the perpendicular direction to all kinds of fittings (house connections, valves, purges,
vents, etc. They are available with screws ends and flange ends.
The saddle must become
in solidarity with the pipe.
Multidiameter saddles must not be
used, but specific PVC saddles for
each DN.
ANTI-TRACTION SYSTEM FLANGE

Allows connecting the spigot ends to all kinds of fittings with connection to a flange (valves, elbows, t´s, DN
reductions, caps, etc).
Anti-traction system makes the pipe

absolutely fixed to the flange.
EURO TYPE PLUG FITTINGS

Connecting the fitting directly to the pipe allows us to have deviations, reductions and connections on the net
(elbows, tees, DN reductions, etc).
It is very important to fix the fitting
to the ground in order to guaranty
the net structural resistance.
A wide range of fittings can be used with TOM® pipes. Consult our technical service to receive advise on the
fittings that may be used.

Key Factors for Optimizing Design

Hydraulic Design
Whether designing a pumping system or a gravity-enabled pipe system, deciding the dimensions of the
pipes involves calculating losses in the terms of load, flow-volume and flow speed.
There are several methodologies for calculating these values. The most commonly used are the
Hazen-Williams and Prandtl-Colebrook-White formulas.
Flow-volume (l/s)= speed (m/s) · section · (m2) 103
Hazen-Williams Formula:
V= 0.355 · C · Di 0.63 · J 0.54
Prandtl -Colebrook-White Formula
V = -2 2 ·g ·Di·J · log ( Ka
3.71 ∙ Di
+
Di
2,51 v
2 ·g ·Di·J
)
V = Average Speed in m/s
Di = Internal Diameter in m
J = Pressure loss in m/m
C = Hazen-Williams Roughness Constant (for PVC-O; C = 150)
g = Gravity acceleration in m/s2 (9.81 m/s2)
ka = Absolute roughness in metres (for PVC-O; ka = 0.007·10-3 m)
v = Kinematic viscosity of the fluid (m2/s) (for water at 20 °C; v = 1.0·10-6)
Another factor to be taken into account is the heat loss produced by fittings (elbows, reducers, tees, etc.)
and valves.
There are tables available for calculating heat loss, flow and speeds using the Hazen-Williams formula.
Flow speed must be determinated taking into account different economical factors (optimization of the
investment in terms of water pumping) and the admissible values for water hammers.
In general, it is established as the minimum value for avoiding sediments 0.5 m/s and as the maximun
values between 2.0 m/s and 2.5 m/s, depending on the diameter of the pipe.

Water Hammer
To calculate possible excess pressures (P) produced by water hammers, the celerity (α) must be first
determinated. It is a characteristic of the pipe and the fluid that it transports, and it evaluates the change in the
water speed (V) which can occurs in the valvel openings and closings or for startups or shutdowns of the pump.

Air locks in the pipes during filling can be highly damaging when water hammers arise and can cause excess
pressure far beyond the levels established in the tables above. Thus it is important to follow the following
recommendations:
• Filling the pipe should only be carried out at low speed (approximately 0.05 m/s) and at the lowest point
in the pipe system.
• When installing purging mechanisms (double effect suction mechanisms) at the highest points on each
section of pipe.
• During filling it is important to leave opened the elements capable of evacuating air (valves), and close
them from bottom to top in the pipe as the pipe fills up with water.

Quick, low-priced installation
TOM® PVC-O pipes are less than half PVC and HDPE pipes weight: between six and twelve times less per
linear metre than ductile iron pipes of the same nominal external diameter. Due to their lightness, they can
be lifted without mechanical assistance (cranes, hoists, etc), up to a diameter of DN315 mm, which brings down
the overall cost of installation.

Because TOM® pipes have a high resistance, they offer considerable advantages in terms of unloading,
installation in trenches and pipe-to-pipe connection. Moreover, these pipes are so easy to connect
to one another that they offer very high performance: they can be handled and installed by lower-
qualified workers and without machinery (up to DN 315).
For all these reasons TOM® pipes offer huge advantages in terms of installation in metres/installation-
hours compared to other solutions.
Transport and Storage
TOM® pipes characteristics make them easy to transport and store, which means considerable
savings in costs.
To optimize transport, it is advisable to stick to the following guidelines:

• If different diameters are going to be transported in the same batch, the biggest diameters must
be placed below.
• Leave the sockets free, alternating sockets and free ends.
• 3 3•
01-40 EN2020.indd 3 07/04/2020 18:32:24

•• • I N S TA L L AT I O N
To avoid damaging pipes in storage, it is advisable to:

• Store the pipes horizontally on a flat surface, on supports spaced 1.5 metres apart, to keep the
pipes from bowing.
• Do not stack higher than 1.5 metres.
• Leave the sockets free, alternating sockets and free ends.
• If the pipes are stored in direct sunlight, cover the pallets with opaque material and with
ventilation to prevent overheating.
Excavation
Trench dimensions
Although other types of applications are possible, TOM® pipes
are particularly recommended for underground installation. The
dimensions of the trench will depend on the loads to which pipes will be
submitted (road traffic, soil types, etc). As a rule of thumb, when there
is no road traffic involved, the pipes’ crown will be at a minimum depth
of 0.6 metres (60 cm); with road traffic, the minimum depth is 1 metre.
The minimum width of the trench can be calculated using the

following tables:
DN Minimum with DN Minimum with Depth of trench Minimum with
(mm) of trench B (m) (mm) of trench B (m) H (m) of trench B (m)
90-250 0.60 710 1.60 H < 1.00 0.60

450 1.15 1100 1.95
500 1.20 1200 2.05
630 1.35
The bottom of the trench should be homogeneous, uniform and ensure a solid support along the entire length of
the pipe.
Assembly
• Checks must be made to ensure that joints are clean both inside the pipe and outside.
• To facilitate assembly, it is advisable to lubricate the sockets and free ends using lubricating soap.
• Align the pipe-ends and slot the sockets into place.
• Pipes can be slotted into one another using levers (use only materials that will not damage the pipes,
e.g. wood), or slings. With small diameters, however, owing to the elastic joint system and the lightness
of the pipe, a short, sharp movement of the hand is enough to couple the pipes.
Angular Deviation
Angular deviations in the union system are allowed. This means that the piping can be channeled
following a desired line.

(1) Pipes not exceeding 5.95 metres in length.
Anchoring
Pipes that are subjected to internal hydrostatic pressure are also

subjected to thrust forces at every point of change of direction (angular
deviation of the pipe, elbows, curves, etc) and in parts and components Anchoring at points
that increase or reduce the pipe’s cross-section, such as valves, branches, of change of direction
overflows, etc. These forces can be extremely strong and are even capable of
moving the ground, causing pipes to uncouple. In general terms, the thrust
forces can be gauged using the following formula:
Force(kg) = k ∙Pressure (bar) ∙ Pipe Cross Section (cm2)

In caps and tees at 90°: K=1
Smallest cross-section
In reducers: k=1 - =
Biggest cross-section
In changes of direction: k=2 ∙ sen β
2
It is important to ensure that the concrete is poured directly into the previously positioned ground and that it has
the required mechanical resistance. When designing the anchoring, bear in mind that the joints must be left free
to enable its subsequent inspection during hydraulic trials.
Bedding and Filling the Trench
To analyze the optimal and most efficient way for the preparation of bedding on which to settle the
pipe and the subsequent filling and compacting the ground on the sides and top of the pipe, see our
installation instructions or contact with our technical and commercial service.
Fiels trials and Entry into Service
The EN 805:2000 Water Supply Standard is applicable to all aspects of on-site trials and Entry into
Service. During installation, it is important to carry out trials on the lengths of completely laid pipeline
(the length can vary between 500 and 1,000 metres). The ends of each length of pipeline will be sealed off using
the appropriate components, and the pipeline must be partly filled with the joints in full view.
The trial pressure (STP) in N/mm2 (0.1 N/mm2 = 1 atm) will be as follows:
a) If the water hammer has been calculated precisely: STP = MDP + 0.1
b) If the water hammer is estimated, use the lesser of the following two values:
STP = MDP + 0.5 and STP = 1.5 · MDP
MDP is the Maximum Design Pressure, i.e. the maximum allowable pressure in a pipe, including the effect of a
water hammer. The Entry into Service of piping for drinking water must comply with the required health
standards for water for human consumption.
