Georg Fischer Piping Systems (GF Piping Systems) provides thermoplastic solutions for the safe transportation, supply and treatment of water on ships.
The company provides high-quality, wear-resistant plastic piping systems, as well as valves, measurement and control devices, automation and attribution services.
Its thermoplastic solutions extend service life and reduce downtime, weight and total cost of ownership.
Compared with metal, plastic pipes have a wide range of advantages, such as high resistance to sea water and electrical corrosion, making them suitable for marine applications.
The chemical distribution and dosage of acids, chlorine and bromine are responsible for many corrosion problems. GF’s plastic piping system is corrosion resistant, which is equivalent to about 50% of the annual maintenance cost.
The company’s piping solutions, valves, measurement and control solutions also provide a variety of connection options, such as solvent bonding, electrical, socket and butt welding, as well as mechanical and flange connections. Easy-to-handle plastic parts reduce the time consumption and cost from assembly and completion to start-up and testing.
In an in-depth test, the carbon footprint of GF’s plastic pipes is five times smaller than that of steel pipes.
The company helps customers reduce energy costs through targeted layout planning and optimal size design for pressure requirements, thereby reducing pump capacity requirements. The use of plastic components helps to achieve a stable flow rate and a stable energy demand.
GF’s ELGEF Plus electrofusion couplers range from DN 300 to DN 800 and are suitable for water and air pump applications.
The “active reinforcement” technology of couplers enables them to resist adverse environments and enhance the connection. The QR code on each label will link you directly to a dedicated web page that provides access to welding instruction videos and technical instructions.
567 DN 600 polypropylene butterfly valve has high abrasion resistance, sea water resistance and chemical resistance.
The Type 567 valve can be installed wherever a large amount of liquid needs to be transported safely and reliably.
Signet fluid measurement and instrument products provide sophisticated, advanced flow and analysis technology to ensure accuracy and ease of use, while minimizing maintenance.
Each sensor, transmitter, controller and monitor meets the highest standards and is designed for performance. Signet offers a wide range of sensors and instruments to measure flow, pH/ORP, conductivity, temperature and pressure.
The SeaCor piping system is a marine thermoplastic piping system approved by the U.S. Coast Guard and Transportation Canada, and meets the requirements of Part 2 (low smoke and toxicity) and Part 5 (low flame spread) of the FTP specification.
It can be installed in the concealed space of living space, service space and control space, and does not need to meet the additional requirements of 46 CFR 56.60-25, that is, plastic pipe smoke detectors. The lightweight, corrosion-resistant SeaCor cementing system is ideal for fresh water, gray water and black water systems from 0.5 inches to 12 inches.
SeaDrain® White is a piping system solution for black water and gray water applications on marine passenger ships. It is light in weight and has the lowest maintenance requirements, installation time, labor and life cycle system costs.
SeaDrain White is designed with advanced marine drainage applications in mind. Long-term system sustainability and passenger safety are key considerations in system design. The size of the complete system ranges from 1-1/2 inches to 6 inches (DN40-DN150) and includes all components required to complete any installation.
SeaDrain® White is suitable for the construction and renovation of cruise ships, passenger ships and luxury yachts. As a plastic piping system, SeaDrain® White has many advantages over traditional metal systems, and has a long service life without maintenance.
GF Piping Systems is a division of Georg Fischer Group, which also includes GF Automotive and GF Machining Solutions. The company was founded in 1802 and is headquartered in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, serving customers in more than 100 countries.
In more than 30 locations in Europe, Asia, and North/South America, GF Piping Systems develops and manufactures products for the safe transportation of liquids and gases in industry, utilities, and construction technology. In 2015, GF Piping Systems had sales of 1.42 billion Swiss francs and employed more than 6,000 employees worldwide.
