Plastitalia offers a range of online tools for professionals working in the polyethylene plant industry. Developed with advice from our experts and constantly updated, these tools provide quick calculations and results directly in your browser.
Plastitalia CO2 Calculator is a tool designed to assess, at the design stage, the environmental impact that welds have during the construction phase of polyethylene plants. It can also be used to prepare an improved technical report in the case of public tenders.
Plastitalia Drag Force Calculator is a tool designed to calculate the maximum drag force applicable to the pipe head during re-lining.
Plastitlaia Pipe Reduction in Length Calculator easy allow to establish the pipe’s length changes (lessening) as effect due to the internal pressure application. It, also, provide the quantity of the force needed to counteract such length change.
Plastitalia Pipe Expansion/Lessening in Length calculator easy allow to establish the pipe’s length changes (lessening/expansion) as effect due to the service temperature variation. It, also, provide the quantity of the force needed to counteract such length change.
Plastitalia Minimum Radius of Curvature Calculator is a tool designed to define the PE pipe minimum bending radius (r) considering a theoretical shape, of the same, as an arc of a circle.
Plastitalia Pipe Wall Stress Calculator allows the verification of the three axial stresses acting in the pipe wall when subjected to internal pressure.
Plastitalia Head Loss Calculator allows you to calculate the head losses (ISO/TR10501), the energy required to overcome these losses and the operating costs of a system.
Plastitalia Water Surge Calculator allows calculation of the overpressure that develops in the case of a rapid manoeuvre (less than 1 s) and is based on the Joukowsky equation, modified for plastic pipes.
Plastitalia Testing Pressure Calculator allows calculation of the test pressure for systems made with polyethylene piping and the amount of water to be tapped for testing the presence of air in the pipeline.
Plastitalia Prefabricated Sector Bend Thickness Calculator allows to verify the prefabricated bend SDR according to the desired angle and the number of parts to be welded.
Plastitalia Lateral Load Calculator makes it possible to identify the maximum lateral load applicable to a polyethylene pipe and its maximum displacement. The sigma tension represents the maximum tension applicable to the most stressed fibres.
Plastitalia Flange Coupling Calculator allows you to determine the correct connections in the metric series of products between flanges for different PN.
Plastitalia Hydrostatic Pressure Calculator makes it possible to obtain the maximum hydrostatic pressure that a hose can maintain throughout its life cycle and on a constant basis.
Plastitalia Database for Polyethylene in Contact to Chemical Substances provides compatibility related data between different substances and Polyethylene.
Plastitalia Database for Rubbers in Contact to Chemical Substances provides compatibility related data between different substances and rubbers (EPDM, FPM).
Plastitalia Mechanical Joint Calculator allows you to quickly check whether mechanical joints (socket pipes) can be used instead of welded joints.
Plastitalia Gas Flow Calculator allows you to calculate the flow rate of a gaseous fluid by entering the upstream and downstream pressures and the total length of the pipe.
Plastitalia Support Spacing Calculator provides the distance between two supports required to ensure that a pipe filled with a fluid and operating at maximum pressure does not bend under its own weight.
