Resistance to deformation
Resistance to deformation, that is the ability of the steel to resist
impacts, is outstanding for austenitic stainless steel at all tempe-
ratures. This is also the case at temperatures substantially below
zero. Powerful impacts may result in denting in certain cases, but
the steel cannot be actually damaged without great difficulty.
Fire resistance
Stainless steel cannot burn and it is therefore classified as non-
combustible.
This means that stainless steel pipes and drains can penetrate storey
partitions without requiring additional fire insulation.
No harzardous substances are liberated from stainless steel in the
event of fire.

BLÜCHER’s lip sealing ring is available in three different rubber
qualities.
NBR: This sealing ring is black with a yellow spot and made
from nitrile rubber and is the sealing ring to be used
where there are petrol or oil residues on the waste water
(e.g. in association with oil and petrol separators at
service stations, garages etc.).
The NBR lip seal should not be used where there is a
risk of temperatures above 80°C. NBR is not resistant to

solvents.
FPM: This sealing ring is lilac and made from fluorine rubber
(Viton).
This is BLÜCHER’s sealing ring for special applications.
The material is particularly heat-resistant and resistant
to oil, solvents and strong acids. However, the FPM seal
has only limited resistance to e.g. butyl acetate, acetone
and methyl alcohol.

On delivery from the factory, all stainless steel surfaces have been passivated and are perfectly clean. In other words, the stainless steel
has formed a corrosion-resistant oxide film over the entire surface.
To preserve the outstanding anti-corrosion properties of the stainless steel, especially if it is to be used outdoors, the following instruc-
tions should be followed with respect to design, manufacture and installation:
Choose the right material with respect to any impurities found Avoid the risk of galvanic corrosion between stainless steel
in the surroundings such as soot, sulphur dioxide, salt water or components and carbon steel items in places where the materials

lation).
Choose the right design which will permit rainwater or rinsing wa-
ter to remove all dust or dirt from the entire stainless steel surface. Use clean tools which have no adhering iron shavings or particles
or rust.

surface.
Use stainless steel brackets, screws, bolts and nuts in the
installation. Do not use hydrochloric acid to remove cement mortar residues
from stainless steel surfaces. Use water to remove the mortar
before it dries.
If the stains on or the discolouration of the stainless steel surface is so serious that it cannot be removed by ordinary rinsing with water,
the following cleaning methods are recommended:
Fingerprints Clean with spirit, thinner or acetone, rinse with cold water,
wipe dry.
Oil and grease Clean with an organic solvent of the above type, then wash
with soapy water or a mild cleaning agent. Rinse with cold
water, wipe dry.
Difficult stains and discolouration Clean with a mildly abrasive cleaning agent and rub along
the surface structure. Rinse with clean cold water and wipe
dry. Or: wash with a 10% phosphoric acid solution. Rinse with
an ammonium solution, then with clean cold water, wipe dry.
Plastic film PVC film can adhere after a time. Use spirit to remove.
M A I N T E N ANC E
Tarnishings and more difficult stains Wash with an abrasive cleaning agent or: rub with a
Scotchbrite sponge along the surface structure; rinse with
clean cold water and wipe dry.
Discolouration from corrosion Wet the surface with a solution of oxalic acid and let the
solution sit for 15-20 minutes. Rinse with clean cold water
and wipe dry. If necessary, wash with an abrasive cleaning
agent as described above.
Paint Clean with paint remover (or use a soft nylon brush or
sponge). Rinse with clean cold water and wipe dry.
Scratches on polished or brushed surfaces Polish with a rotating polishing pad (always use an iron-free
polish). Polish along the surface structure, wash with soapy
water or a mild cleaning agent, rinse with clean cold water,
wipe dry.
N.B.: this method cannot be used on smooth or rolled
patterned surfaces without leaving visible traces.
Precautions
Use only acids if other methods have proved inadequate.
Follow the applicable safety provisions for such work and wear
rubber gloves and proctive goggles. Ensure proper ventilation.

This solution can, however cause noise problems.
If the solution in Fig. 2, which is better in terms of noise, is chosen,
it must be ensured that the pipe cannot move in the event of fire,

The test
Leakage testing can be carried out before or after the final
filling in of the excavation made for the pipes. The test should be
-
carried out at a constant temperature. Pipes which have not been
I N S T A L L AT I ON
covered with earth must therefore be protected against tempera-
ture variations during the test. Direct sunshine on the pipe runs
is not allowed.
Plug the pipes at each end of the test run and at all branches. Wells
have to be sealed at the top and all inlets and outlets, as close as
possible to the wall of the well, but including the joint between
pipe and well in the test. All parts included in the system must be
secured, and all seals must be designed in such a way that they
will not become dislocated during the test.
Pipes and wells must be completely empty of water before the test.
The test is then carried out with air or water.
SECTION
General:
All pipe shipments from BLÜCHER are cradled and packed
on pallets. Fittings are packed in cardboard boxes and
stacked on pallets.
All goods are carefully packaged to avoid damage during
transport.
Support straps for loading and moving bundles of pipes by crane Pipes and fittings must not be dragged along the ground or
must be made of textile, canvas or similar material. other surfaces which could damage them.
Storage
To avoid deformation of, or serious damage to, pipes and
fittings, we recommend storing the products in their original pack-
aging until they are to be used.
SECTION Store pipes and fittings so that they do not come into contact with
8
carbon steel, which can leave traces of corrosion on the stainless
steel. Pipes and fittings must also be stored in a safe distance
from sparks and spray from e.g. angle grinders and oxyacetylene
torches.
Pipe bundles and loose pipes should be stored on a flat surface
and supported so that the pipes do not rest on their sockets.
Tests have been carried out using Walraven SL simple two part pipe
hanger when measuring sound from pipes and using BISMAT 1000
sound improved hanger in accordance with recommendations from
Walraven when measuring sound to adjoining rooms.
Legislation
- The in Europe commonly used standard DIN 4109 states require-
ments of maximum 30 dB(A) through wall to adjoining rooms. In
comparison the sound level in a library is 30 dB(A). BLÜCHER®
EuroPipe complies with DIN 4109.
- EN 14366 states requirements to the test installation, but not
any sound level requirements. BLÜCHER® EuroPipe has been
tested in accordance with EN 14366 test requirements and
complies with this standard.
- All materials have been tested in accordance with DIN 4109,
and these results are shown in the diagrams. Compared to EN
14366 the results are approximately 3 dB(A) higher.
