A vital component in the effectiveness of a VESDA aspirating smoke detection system is the sampling pipe network, which continuously draws air from the protected space to the detector. The VESDA Pipes and Fittings range is specifically designed to deliver fully compatible components, ensuring peak performance throughout the entire system.

Manufactured to meet BS 5391 Part 1, EN 61386-1 and EN 54-20 standards, these products provide the trusted quality and reliability expected from VESDA solutions.

• Toughness and Durability: The Butadiene constituent of ABS enhances impact strength and toughness at temperatures ranging from -40C to 70C and gives exceptional resistance to accidental damage.

• Chemical Resistance: Acrylonitrile impacts chemical resistance, thus ABS is unaffected by corrosive attack from a wide range of acids, alkaline and other aggressive chemicals.

• Easy to Joint: The Styrene constituent in ABS makes it an easy material to joint using ABS solvent. Simple modifications to existing pipework are also possible with minimal specialist training.

• Lightweight: Unlike some metal pipes, VESDA ABS pipework is very light in weight. This makes it easy to handle in high and difficult places where systems are often installed.

• Colour: The standard VESDA pipe and fittings are supplied in fire red to identify its service as fire. Special orders of white can be accommodated for aesthetic reasons.
