Flexalen PHC is the pre-fabricated house connection system for extremely fast and secure installation of insulated Polybutene-1 piping for heating networks. The PB-1 medium pipe is PUR-insulated, and can be connected with Flexalen 600 or Flexalen PU. Flexalen PHC contains the general distribution line and the connection (flow and return) to a house.
All components are manufactured in the Thermaflex factory located in the Netherlands and then carefully assembled with state of the art welding techniques in their own prefabrication department to ensure a high end and tested component that is critical in the complete heating distribution system.
Building DHCN networks with Flexalen PHC means less – and only straight – connections need to be built in the field, which saves up to 15% in material purchases and up to 33% in installation time.
Technical Characteristics
Flexalen PHC consists of:
- 1 or 2 PB-1 medium pipes
- homogenously weldable, flexible plastic pipes
- PUR insulated core
- optimal energy efficiency, CFC-free
- PE outer casing
- protects against mechanical damage
With house connections, up to 6 metres
Thermaflex produces Flexalen PHC in lengths up to 6 metres, including multiple house connections per stick. This only needs a straight trench in the street, with a minimum of digging volume. Disturbance for the residents is minimal, due to the ready house connections. Building a heating network is faster and more efficient than current systems.
