- Bottle-tight joints with option of removable gaskets
- Superior hydraulics
- Corrosion-Proof Performance
The versatility and ease of installation of IPEX Centurion is unmatched – costly and difficult to install corrosion protection can be eliminated. In addition, unlike HDPE or concrete pressure pipe, every length of IPEX Centurion is tested to double its pressure rating.
IPEX Centurion is manufactured with a cast iron outside diameter (CIOD) so it is compatible with much of the existing older infrastructure of iron pipes. In addition, IPEX Centurion can be field cut, which means unexpected changes in the field can be accommodated quickly, without having to wait for new shop drawings.
IPEX Centurion Fittings are manufactured using sections of AWWA C905 pipe, overwrapped with a layer of fibre reinforced plastic (FRP). While IPEX Centurion is compatible with iron fittings, IPEX recommends the use of IPEX Centurion fittings exclusively with IPEX Centurion pipe.

SPECIFICATIONS
GENERAL
Pipe must conform to AWWA C905 and be certified to CSA B137.3 “Rigid Poly (Vinyl Chloride) (PVC) Pipe for Pressure Applications.”DR51, 41, 32.5, 25, 18, and 14 pipe must have the following pressure class/rating: 80 psi (550 kPa), 100 psi (690 kPa), 125 psi (860 kPa), 165 psi (1 140 kPa), 235 psi (1 620 kPa) and 305 psi (2 100 kPa). For pressure applications, each length of pipe must be hydro-tested at twice the class/rating and a short-term pressure test must be conducted once per production run. Pipe to be IPEX Centurion or approved equal.
FABRICATED FITTINGS
Fabricated fittings shall be made from segments of AWWA C905 pipe that are butt fused or bonded together. Some fittings are over-wrapped with fiberglass-reinforced polyester. The fittings must always meet the pressure rating of the pipe system.
Case Studies
A Wise Choice Made 30 Years Ago
In the early 1980s, decision makers in charge of the City of Vaudreuil-Dorion infrastructures had a sense of vision and made a responsible choice for the lasting benefit of the tax payers. A vision that would ensure durable infrastructures for over 30 years. The technical services, in cooperation with the public works department, decided a major shift for products to be used in potable water distribution applications. Since then PVC has become ``The Material of Choice`` made by the City to meet the overall needs, taking into account the existing soil conditions throughout the territory.
