ACO GM-X and GM-X-VAC Table of Contents Material Drain pipes and fittings are manufactured from welded, one-time cold-drawn precision steel pipe in accordance with DIN 2394. Tensile strength: Rm 310-410 N/mm2 As a material, steel is practically properties: • unbreakable • dimensionally stable • heat and frost proof • favourable acoustic behaviour • non-combustible Thermal expansion With steel, thermal expansion is exceptionally limited. When a 1 metre piece of pipe is heated by 100°C, the length increase is 1.1 mm. The thermal expansion produced by the introduction of hot wastewater does not...

The GM-X socket is a two-stage design. The seal guarantees great tightness between the pipe and is retained by the first socket stage. The second the socket, without the risk of the seal being stage centres the inserted pipe. compressed by its own or an outside load. The socket shape construction enables a solid, buckle-proof and rigid connection of pipes and mouldings to be made, and thus The GM-X seal is in the shape of a lip collar. It is inserted into the upper socket chamber. As a result of the other pipe end being pushed in, the sealing lips are forced against the inner wall of...

ACO GM-X and GM-X-VAC Table of Contents The vacuum connection The vacuum installation with x-socket and GM-XVACplus sealing element, corresponds to installations of the standard GM-X sealing element. Therefore guaranteeing a trouble-free vacuum operation. The seal-tight value of the vacuum seal joint complies with DIN 86 281. In contrast to the aforementioned installation the GM-X-VACplus sealing element fills both socket stages. GM-X-VACplus seal The GM-X-VACplus sealing element allows the vacuum installations with „standard socket Type A1“. The GM-X-VACplus seal is in the shape of a lip collar....

ACO GM-X and GM-X-VAC Table of Contents All pipes and fittings are hot galvanized inside and out. The zinc coating is on average 400 g/m2 or 56 µ. It is impact-resistant and shock-proof. The zinc coating produces a cathodic protection of the cut edges thus preventing bottom rust. In addition, the insides of the pipes and fittings are given an alkydmelamine resin based plastic coating. Due to this internal coating of the pipes, frictional resistance on the internal surfaces is reduced and incrustation largely prevented. Together with the zinc coating, optimum corrosion protection is achieved....

1. The seal is placed obliquely on the lower edge of the socket chamber. 2. Using your forefinger to press the seal to one side, push it into the socket chamber. 3. On releasing, the seal should pop into the socket chamber. (Adjust where necessary) Note: The outside seal edge collar must rest on the socket rim. Undoing the socket joint The insertion pipe is heated around the socket with a heat source until the pipe can be pulled out of the socket. When re-assembling, the seal must be changed. Pipe fixing For horizontally mounted pipes, the dead weight of the pipe plus the possible water content...

ACO GM-X and GM-X-VAC Table of Contents Production monitoring GM-X drain pipes and fittings are subject to production monitoring by monitoring by a certified institute. GM-X seals are also subject to production monitoring by a certified institute. Quality management GM-X drain pipes and fittings are subject to production in accordance to DIN EN ISO 9001:2000. Certification GM-X pipes and special fittings are certified by all leading test registers. This affirms their high operational safety.
