FAQs

What is MDPE?

MDPE stands for Medium-Density Polyethylene, a type of plastic pipe commonly used for water supply and irrigation due to its flexibility, durability, and resistance to corrosion.

Do I need special tools to install this kit?

No, the compression fittings on the MDPE flange typically do not require specialized tools. Standard pipe wrenches may be needed for the threaded valve connection.

What is BSP thread?

BSP stands for British Standard Pipe. It's a family of standardized thread forms used for pipes and fittings. The 'BSPM – F' on the valve indicates it has male threads designed to connect with female fittings.

What is the maximum pressure this kit can handle?

The MDPE fittings in this kit are rated PN10, meaning they are engineered to withstand a maximum operating pressure of 10 bars (approximately 145 psi).

Is this kit suitable for hot water?

While MDPE can handle some temperature variations, it is primarily designed for cold water applications. Check specific temperature ratings for your MDPE pipe and the valve if considering hot water use.

What are the benefits of the nickel-plated brass valve?

The nickel-plated brass construction enhances durability, providing excellent resistance to corrosion, tarnish, and wear, ensuring a longer service life even in demanding environments.

Can I use this kit for gas lines?

No, this kit is designed for water and fluid applications. It is not suitable or rated for use with gas lines.

Troubleshooting

Leak at threaded connection

Ensure PTFE tape (purchased separately) is applied correctly to threads before tightening. Check that fittings are fully tightened but not overtightened, which can damage threads.

MDPE pipe not secure in flange

Verify the pipe is fully inserted into the compression fitting and that the compression nut is tightened evenly and sufficiently.

Lever valve is stiff or difficult to turn

Check for debris in the valve mechanism. If the valve is older, a specific lubricant for the valve type may be needed, consult the valve manufacturer's guidelines.

Low water flow

Ensure the lever valve is fully open. Check for blockages in the pipe, the valve, or downstream components.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Provides a secure and leak-free connection for MDPE pipes.
Easy to install with simple compression fittings.
Durable brass construction with nickel plating for longevity.
Resistant to corrosion and chemicals.
Offers precise flow control with the lever valve.

Cons

PTFE tape is not included and must be purchased separately.
Primarily designed for MDPE pipes, may not be compatible with other pipe types.
Maximum pressure rating of 10 bar may not be suitable for all high-pressure applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Ensure the connection point on the flat surface is clean and dry.
Attach the MDPE Wall Flange to the surface using appropriate fasteners (not included).
Insert the 25mm MDPE pipe into the flange's compression fitting and tighten securely.
Connect the 3/4" BSPM – F threaded end of the lever valve to a compatible fitting.
Connect the other side of the lever valve to the MDPE pipe using the appropriate 3/4" BSP connection and the flange's threaded outlet.
*Note*: You will need to purchase PTFE tape separately for threaded connections to ensure a watertight seal.

Compatibility:

This kit is designed for 25mm MDPE (Medium-Density Polyethylene) pipes.
The lever valve features 3/4" BSPM – F threads, compatible with standard 3/4" BSP fittings.

Care:

Periodically inspect the connections for any signs of wear or leakage.
Clean external surfaces with a damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners.
Ensure the lever valve operates smoothly. If stiff, a small amount of appropriate lubricant may be applied to the stem, if accessible and suitable for your application.
