Chemical & Corrosion Resistant CPVC

One of the key advantages of Spears® LabWaste™ CPVC System is its excellent resistance to a broad range of corrosive environments. CPVC is inert to most mineral acids, bases, salts and aliphatic hydrocarbons, and compares favorably to other plastics in these chemical environments.

General Chemical Resistance Overview:

The LabWaste™ CPVC System has been developed for use in Academic, Research, and Institutional Laboratory chemical waste drainage applications. These plumbing systems are characterized by the routine disposal of a wide variety of hot and cold chemical wastes in accordance with prudent laboratory practices for drainage disposal.

Manufactured to ASTM F 2618 in Full Line of Drainage Pattern Fitting Configurations

Spears® broad line of LabWaste™ CPVC pipe & fittings are manufactured to ASTM F 2618 Specifications for CPVC Pipe & Fittings for Chemical Waste Drainage Systems and produced in ASTM D 3311 drainage patterns or to manufacturer ’s specifications. Standard configurations are available in nominal sizes of 1-1/2" through 24" with many specialty fittings and accessories, like dilution traps, (water dilution being critical in the prevention of exothermic chemical interactions within all plumbing systems)

NSF® Certified For Corrosive Waste

Spears® LabWasteTM Corrosive Water Drainage System of pipe, fittings, and cement is tested and certified for use in corrosive waste systems by NSF International to ASTM F 2618, tested to IAPMO IGC 210, Certified to the Uniform Plumbing Code, Certified to NSF ORD 1022 for use in Canada and ICC-ES listed to PMG-1018 for CPVC Chemical Waste Systems.

Cost Saving Solvent Weld Joining Eliminates the need for Electro-Fusion Joints and for Mechanical Joint Connections in Concealed Spaces

A proven joining method reliably used for over 50 years, Solvent Cement Welding requires no special tools, no costly fusion easy installation, repairs or alterations. Most importantly, solvent cement joints end problems typical of polypropylene system installation, such as mechanical connector pullout, maintaining mechanically sealed joints, leaks from fusion wire corrosion, and cumbersome fusion joining methods.  Saves time, saves cost, saves worry!

A Flame & Smoke Rated Piping System

Spears® LabWasteTM system components have been evaluated and Listed by Underwriters Laboratories of Canada (ULC®) as finished products for surface burning characteristics under CAN/ ULC S102.2 and tested to UL 723/ASTM E 84, for Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials (NFPA 255, ANSI/ UL 723 and UBC 8-1), and showed a flame spread of < 25 and a smoke developed index of < 50.

Industrial & Commercial Special Waste Applications

Spears® LabWaste™ CPVC products can be used in a very broad variety of dedicated waste applications with proper evaluation of waste medium and service conditions. DO NOT follow Chemical Resistance Tables recommendations in this manual for these applications.   For non-laboratory applications, refer to CPVC pressure system resistance data for appropriate chemical resistance guidelines.  Please contact Spears® Technical Services for additional information.

American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) Type Approval

Spears® LabWaste™ CPVC Corrosive Waste Drainage System pipe and fittings are ABS Type Approved for marine and offshore applications in nominal pipe sizes through 12”. Type Approval details and restrictions are specified in ABS Certificate # 10-HS539421-2-PDA available on the ABS website at www.eagle.org.
