Georg Fischer Piping Systems (GF Piping Systems) provides thermoplastic solutions for the safe transport, supply and handling of water on board.
The company provides high-quality, wear-resistant plastic piping systems, as well as valves, measurement and control equipment, automation and attribution services.
Its thermoplastic solutions extend service life and reduce downtime, weight and total cost of ownership.
Compared to metal, plastic pipes offer a wide range of advantages, such as resistance to seawater 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 systems are resistant to corrosion, which accounts for approximately 50% of annual maintenance costs.
The company’s plumbing solutions, valves, measurement and control solutions also offer a variety of connection options such as solvent bonding, electrical connections, socket and butt fusion, and mechanical and flange connections.Easy-to-handle plastic components reduce time consumption and cost from assembly and completion to start-up and testing.
During in-depth testing, GF’s plastic tubing has been shown to have a carbon footprint five times that of steel tubing.
The company helps customers reduce energy costs through targeted layout planning and optimal sizing for pressure needs, thereby reducing pump capacity requirements.The use of plastic components contributes to a stable flow as well as a stable energy demand.
GF’s ELGEF Plus electrofusion couplers range from DN 300 to DN 800 for pumping and gas extraction applications.
The coupler’s “active hardening” technology makes it resistant to harsh environments and strengthens the connection.The QR code on each label links you directly to a dedicated web page that provides access to welding instruction videos and technical instructions.
Type 567 DN 600 Polypropylene Butterfly Valves are highly resistant to abrasion, sea water and chemicals.
The Model 567 valve can be installed anywhere that large volumes of liquids need to be safely and reliably transferred.
Signet fluid measurement and instrumentation products provide sophisticated, advanced flow and analysis technologies that enable accuracy and ease of use while minimizing maintenance.
Every 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.
SeaCor ductwork is a USCG and Transport Canada approved marine thermoplastic ductwork that meets the requirements of FTP Code Part 2 (Low Smoke and Toxicity) and Part 5 (Low Flame Propagation).
It can be installed in concealed spaces in living, service and control spaces without the additional requirements of 46 CFR 56.60-25 for smoke detectors for plastic ducts.The lightweight, corrosion-resistant SeaCor cement systems are ideal for fresh, grey and black water systems from 0.5″ to 12″.
SeaDrain® White is a piping system solution for black and grey water applications on marine passenger vessels.It is lightweight and has minimal maintenance requirements, installation time, labor and lifetime 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.Complete systems range in size from 1-1/2″ to 6″ (DN40 – DN150) and include all components needed to complete any installation.
SeaDrain® White is suitable for cruise, passenger and luxury yacht installations, whether new or retrofit.As a plastic piping system, SeaDrain® White offers numerous advantages over traditional metal systems, as well as a long service life and maintenance-free.
GF Piping Systems is a division of the Georg Fischer Group, which also includes GF Automotive and GF Machining Solutions.Founded in 1802 and headquartered in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, the company serves customers in more than 100 countries.
With 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 building technology.In 2015, GF Piping Systems had sales of CHF 1.42 billion and employs more than 6,000 people worldwide.
SeaDrain® White is the new best-in-class piping system solution for black and grey water applications on marine passenger vessels.
The Hycleen automation system from Georg Fischer (GF) Piping Systems ensures hydraulic alignment and automatic flushing, minimizing biofilm formation and bacterial growth.
The Hycleen automation system from GF Piping Systems provides a sophisticated software package for the automation of drinking water installations.
SeaDrain White marine drainage piping systems for blackwater and greywater discharges that are lighter in weight, have lower maintenance requirements, lower installation time and labor, and have lower life cycle system costs than competing metal systems.
Georg Fischer (GF) Piping Systems will be presenting its range of anti-corrosion piping solutions for ships at this year’s Seatrade Cruise Global event.
GF Piping Systems introduces the advanced COOL-FIT system, changing the way refrigeration applications are planned, installed and operated.
GF Piping Systems has released COOL-FIT 2.0 pre-insulated PE100 plastic piping systems to meet the comfort and safety demands of modern society.
Growing concerns about environmental impact have impacted the shipbuilding industry, with SOx and NOx engine emissions expected to decline steadily through 2025.
GF Piping Systems will be presenting its products at the Posidonia 2018 Shipping Show at the Metropolitan Fair in Athens, Greece.
