Fränkische Rohrwerke 22520116 Fränkische FPKu-EM-F-UV 16 white medium conduit plastic rod conduit rigid content_copy

The FPKu-EM-F-UV 16 white from Fränkische Rohrwerke is a medium-duty plastic conduit made of modified PVC, specifically designed for surface mounting installations outdoors and in industrial facilities. The conduit is supplied in the colour white (RAL 9010) and features a one-sided formed socket, enabling simple and secure connection of conduit sections. It is delivered in rod lengths of 2 metres and packaged in resealable cartons, facilitating transport and storage. The conduit is primarily used in outdoor areas and industrial environments where high corrosion resistance and mechanical stability are required.

Applications
This conduit is designed for surface mounting installations where cables are visibly routed, for example in production halls, warehouses, or on the exterior of buildings. The UV stabilisation ensures long-term resistance to sunlight, with the manufacturer specifying a stabilisation duration of up to 10 years. Its resistance to acids and alkalis makes it suitable for environments with aggressive chemicals, such as those found in the chemical industry or cleaning facilities.

Functions and Features in Detail
The FPKu-EM-F-UV 16 white is non-flame-propagating, making it suitable for use in areas with increased fire protection requirements. The one-sided formed socket allows for quick and tool-free installation, with connections made by simply inserting one conduit into the socket. Packaging in resealable cartons ensures clean and damage-free storage on site.

Technical Explanation
The conduit is made of modified PVC, a plastic that exhibits improved mechanical and chemical properties due to special additives. The minimum pressure resistance is 750 Newton per 5 centimetres, corresponding to medium strength and sufficient to withstand mechanical loads during operation. The UV stabilisation prevents fading and material degradation caused by ultraviolet radiation, extending the conduit’s lifespan in outdoor applications. Standards VDE 0605 and DIN EN 61386-21 define the requirements for electrical installation and mechanical properties, which the conduit fulfils.

The corrosion resistance against acids and alkalis is particularly important in industrial applications where conduits are exposed to chemical influences. The non-flame-propagating property reduces the risk of fire spreading along the cables. The UV stabilisation ensures long-term colour and shape stability outdoors. The one-sided formed socket enables simple and secure connection of conduit sections.

Compatibility and Accessories
The conduit is compatible with other components from the FPKu system by Fränkische Rohrwerke, such as bends, junction boxes, or connectors. Connections are made via the formed socket, with dimensional accuracy ensured by compliance with DIN EN 61386-21. It is designed for surface mounting installations and is therefore not intended for concealed or in-wall installations.

Installation and Mounting
Mounting is performed by inserting conduit sections into the sockets of adjacent conduits. Connections can be made without tools, with mechanical strength ensured by the socket design and the material strength of the PVC. Packaging in resealable cartons facilitates storage and transport on site.

Operational Advantages
The combination of medium pressure resistance, corrosion resistance, and UV stabilisation makes the FPKu-EM-F-UV 16 white a reliable solution for outdoor and industrial applications. The non-flame-propagating property enhances operational safety. The simple installation via the formed socket reduces installation time and labour effort. The use of modified PVC ensures long service life and low maintenance costs.
