“View clearly and decide quickly”

Pipeson Analyzer® has a testing view, which displays all data in tables and graphs. This view gives an excellent overview of the test data.

Testing functionality

  • Flexible data import from Excel with data synchronization
  • Work with ISO and Imperial units for temperature/stress/pressure
  • Details regarding project, test samples and test conditions are saved in the file
  • Test data is presented in tables and graphs
  • Distribution tables give a clear summary

 

"Increase your evaluation capability"

All data evaluations are made in the evaluation view. This view is designed to make it as easy as possible to perform correct evaluations based on regression analyses.

Available evaluations

  • ISO 9080 Determination of the long-term hydrostatic strength of thermoplastics materials in pipe form by extrapolation (pressure and stress)
  • ISO 17456 Plastics piping systems -- Multilayer pipes -- Determination of long-term strength (All calculations are based on ISO 9080)
  • ASTM D 2837 Test Method for Obtaining Hydrostatic Design Basis for Thermoplastic Pipe Materials or Pressure Design Basis for Thermoplastic Pipe Products
  • ASTM D 2992 Standard Practice for Obtaining Hydrostatic or Pressure Design Basis for "Fiberglass" (Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Thermosetting-Resin) Pipe and Fittings
  • ASTM F 2023 Test Method for Evaluating the Oxidative Resistance of Crosslinked Polyethylene (PEX) Tubing and Systems to Hot Chlorinated Water
  • ASTM F 2263 Standard Test Method for Evaluating the Oxidative Resistance of Polyethylene (PE) Pipe to Chlorinated Water
  • PPI TN-16 Rate Process Method for Projecting Performance of Polyethylene Piping Components

Evaluation tools

  • Unique tools to quickly include/exclude data
  • Interpolation and extrapolation
  • LPL linearization according to ISO 21003/ISO 17456
  • Save regression lines (LTHS/LPL/LCL)
  • LTHS time calculator
  • SDR stress calculator

"Manage lines and apply them"

The line functionality is designed to manage lines and to use them for many applications.

Line library

The Line library is designed to hold standard reference lines and regression lines. Standard reference lines are preloaded for ABS, PB, PE, PE-RT, PEX, PP and PVC. The regression lines can be added manually or automatically from the data evaluation view. Line folders can be exported and imported for easy transfer of results.

Line lifetime

The Line lifetime functionality gives the possibility to perform strength predictions applying any line from the Line library. Both predictions at a specific temperature and time as well as predictions of cumulative damage can be calculated.

Applied documents for cumulative damage

ISO 13760 Plastics pipes for the conveyance of fluids under pressure - Miner’s rule - Calculation method for cumulative damage
ISO 10508 Plastics piping systems for hot and cold water installations - Guidance for classification and design
ISO 21003 Multilayer piping systems for hot and cold water installations inside buildings
prEN 15632 District heating pipes
ISO 15874-15877 Plastics piping systems for hot and cold water installations

Line lifetime tools

  • Preloaded design coefficients for according to ISO 15874-15877
  • Preloaded service conditions according to ISO 10508 and prEN 15632
  • User can define and save any design coefficients
  • User can define and save any service conditions

 

"Compare performance and check requirements"

The Compare view is designed for comparison of data in Pipeson files and lines from the Line library. Data, reference lines and regression lines are added to the compare graph. The compare functionality can be used both for quality control, reference line control and comparison of different materials and pipe constructions.

Compare tools

  • Add data of different Pipeson files
  • Add any line from the Line library
  • Customize colours of data and lines
  • Customize length of lines
  • Data – Line comparer for reference line control and quality control

"Communicate effectively"

Pipeson Analyzer® provides many options for effective communication, both internal and external. Pick and choose the information that you would like to share.

Communication formats

The Pipeson file contains all project information, data and evaluation settings. With all data in a Pipeson file library and all regression lines in the Line library it is easy and quick to distribute data and results to other Pipeson Analyzer® users. Pipeson Analyzer® is an excellent tool for presentations.

Communication tools

  • Export and import time templates for lifetime predictions
  • Export and import all folders in the Line library
  • Copy and paste all tables, graphs and results
  • Report editor create customized testing reports and evaluation reports
  • Pipeson Viewer® - project information and test results can be viewed in Pipeson Viewer®
