Where are ductile iron pipes used

Whether in municipal or industrial fields, protecting people’s property is an important task of fire piping systems. Ductile iron pipes are designed with triple safety factor, which not only ensures that the entire fire protection system, including valves and fire hydrants, is a completely consistent ductile iron pipe product, but also fully meets the working conditions of fire piping systems.

With the shortage of water resources, many cities face a severe drinking water situation. Some central cities have already started using recycled water. The reclaimed water is located between the tap water (superior water) and the sewage (sewage) discharged into the pipeline. This water can be used for washing cars, watering lawns, cleaning roads, city fountains, cooling water for thermal power plants, and more.

 

Pipeline sealing performance requirements are not as stringent as drinking water. Now that perception is changing as water resources become increasingly scarce and cost more. To ensure long-term impermeability, the agricultural irrigation network must be able to resist soil movement, the passage of agricultural machinery, water hammer (due to the start of water pipes and the sudden stop of water valve discharge), and anything else that may happen.

 

Ductile iron pipes are adaptable and easy to expand or modify (while not destroying) existing pipes. Ductile iron pipe systems have a high safety margin sufficient to meet the above conditions. Currently, electricity generation from small or satellite hydropower plants is an emerging but rapidly growing field. These hydropower plants are usually operated by local businesses and institutions or private capital. In this field, ductile iron pipes have the ability to resist high internal water pressure, as well as excellent ability to resist the external pressure of soil terrain, enabling pipes to be buried in deep pits and valleys.

Ductile iron pipes are widely used in water and oil pipelines, as well as production process pipe networks in food, pharmaceutical, chemical and other industries. It has considerable resources and service advantages in the municipal pipeline network, water supply company, urban construction, real estate development, domestic structural steel, mechanical processing and manufacturing, coal mine, petroleum, chemical, electric power and other industries.
