The UNIPEX SYSTEM  - Supported by ANC Distribution

unipex-logo            

unipex-8-webThe UNIPEX™ system has been developed in response to the increasing demand for lead free plumbing systems in Australia. The UNIPEX™ system utilises one common fitting for both water and gas applications, eliminating the need to carry separate water and gas fittings.

25 Years WarrantyThe UNIPEX™ system combines lead free, silicon brass fittings with a stainless-steel crimp ring and premium quality PN20 Pipe for water, recycled, rainwater and gas applications. The UNIPEX™ crimping method is fast, secure, with no O-ring and the complete system is backed by a 25-year warranty.
UNIPEX™ has partnered with ANC Distribution and REMS to develop the YZ UNI Tongs suitable for the REMS Mini Press.
The REMS Mini Press is super light, super small, and super handy. With automatic circuit control. Secure crimping in seconds. Automatic locking of pressing tongs. Assortment of REMS pressing tongs available for the UNIPEX™ system. Sizes DN16 to DN32.


Application:

unipex-7-webThe UNIPEX™ system uses a newly developed crimping tool to produce a secure joint in a minimal amount of time. The crimping method produces a consistent level of compression around the full circumference of the crimp ring, guaranteeing a perfect seal every time, and eliminates the need for repairing partially and poorly welded joints etc.
UNIPEX™ fittings are to be installed in accordance with AS/NZS 3500 for water and AS/NZS 5601 for gas applications, these include:-
• Hot and Cold Potable Water  • Rainwater  • Recycled Water (non-potable)  • Natural Gas  • LPG


UNIPEX™
Pipe
UNIPEX™ pipe is a high-quality cross-linked polyethylene PN20, SDR9 pipe, consisting of an inner core of PEX-B material encased in an outer layer of tough High-density polyethylene. UNIPEX™ water pipe is used for potable (hot and cold), recycled and rainwater systems as well as glycol systems. Contact your local UNIPEX™ supplier for more information and applications for use with other fluids.UNIPEX™ also offers a multilayer composite (PE-AL-PEX) gas pipe specifically for natural gas and LPG applications. The pipe construction in made up of an internal PEXb inner layer encased in a layer of aluminium, which acts as a barrier layer, stopping gas migration, and an exterior layer of durable polyethylene to protect the aluminium layer. UNIPEX™ pipe is available in DN16, DN20, DN25 and DN32 sizes, in either coils or straight lengths.

Performance
The use of UNIPEX™ pipe provides users with many advantages over traditional piping materials. It has excellent flexibility, offers a high degree of resistance to damage caused by freezing, as well as excellent pressure and temperature resistance. The PEX-B pipe is composed of lightweight material and has high insulation of noise and heat. Also, very low level of friction loss means UNIPEX™ pipe can often save users the need to upsize piping when installing long runs. As jointing methods are mechanical, it does not require the use of solvent adhesives, soldering, welding, or brazing.

Pipe Construction

unipex-ANCUNIPEX™ Water Pipe (Black, Red, Green, Lilac).
The UNIPEX™ water pipe consists of an inner core of cross-linked polyethylene (PEX-B),
with a coloured outer layer of high-density polyethylene
(coloured for application identification).

UNIPEX™ Gas Pipe - (Yellow)
UNIPEX™ gas pipe is a high-quality composite pipe.
It has three separate layers bonded to form a light weight, flexible
and extremely resilient pipe.
The inside layer is a cross linked polyethylene (PEX-B).
This is surrounded by a layer of aluminium (Al) which in turn is
encased with an outer layer of yellow coloured polyethylene (PE).

UNIPEX™ Fittings
The body of UNIPEX™ fittings are made from a high-performance,unipex-ANClead free, DZR silicon brass.
The crimp ring is made of high-quality stainless steel which when
used with the UNIPEX™ crimping tool ensures a consistent reliable
joint with both the UNIPEX™ water and gas pipes.
