class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start with the design case, not a catalogue size. Record design flow, allowable pressure loss, design temperature and pressure, design life, fluid, route, fittings, and the applicable standard. Split the route into main, riser, and branch rows. DESO&#8217;s PP-RCT page lists a 20\u2013160 mm range and several SDR options, but confirm the current SKU table, pressure-temperature basis, and certificate scope for the exact model before approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Does_PP-RCT_Pipe_Sizing_Start_Before_the_RFQ\"><\/span>Why Does PP-RCT Pipe Sizing Start Before the RFQ?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An enquiry that says &#8220;DN50, PN20, hot water&#8221; gives a supplier a label, not a design case. Two offers can match it while differing in inside diameter, fitting range, pressure-temperature basis, documentation, or assumed duty. The result is a quotation that looks precise but cannot be approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This guide follows the decision sequence a buyer needs: capture the engineer&#8217;s basis, split the route into segments, screen a trial size, fix the product definition, send one complete schedule, and compare replies on like-for-like evidence. It helps you buy the calculated result; it does not replace the engineer&#8217;s hydraulic design or local code review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_Design_Inputs_Turn_a_Project_Brief_Into_a_Sizing_Schedule\"><\/span>Which Design Inputs Turn a Project Brief Into a Sizing Schedule?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PP-RCT pipe sizing needs enough information to reproduce the design condition on each line. At minimum, record fluid, design flow, allowable velocity, allowable pressure loss, design pressure, design temperature, design life, route length, fitting and valve assumptions, and the applicable standard. Add project location, destination market, and approval route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use consistent units and identify the calculation revision. Also record whether the duty is domestic hot water, closed hydronic heating, chilled water, or condenser water; those services can impose different operating profiles. A flow in m\u00b3\/h and a pressure loss in kPa is actionable. A flow without units is not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use one row per hydraulic segment, not one project-wide summary. Each row should carry the segment ID, loads served, design flow, proposed outside diameter, SDR or S-series, pressure-temperature basis, allowable loss, and source calculation. Keep unresolved values visible. If the family is still open, compare the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/pt\/product-category\/ppr-pipe\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">gama de tubos PPR<\/a> before fixing the schedule; this guide assumes PP-RCT is already under consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Should_You_Separate_Main_Riser_and_Branch_Sizing\"><\/span>How Should You Separate Main, Riser, and Branch Sizing?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-1.webp\" alt=\"Decision flow diagram titled PP-RCT Pipe Sizing with three numbered steps: Design case, Segment route, and Quote basis, each with buyer check notes.\" class=\"wp-image-9467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-1.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-1-500x281.webp 500w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-1-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-1-18x10.webp 18w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-1-133x75.webp 133w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-1-480x270.webp 480w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-1-800x450.webp 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width:767px) 480px, (max-width:1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PP-RCT pipe sizing does not use one building-wide flow for every line. Each segment has its own downstream demand, pressure constraint, and fitting exposure. That distinction is where many otherwise tidy enquiries fail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_the_Main_Sized_From_Its_Downstream_Demand\"><\/span>Why Is the Main Sized From Its Downstream Demand?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main carries the combined flow for the loads downstream of that specific main, after the project&#8217;s approved diversity and future-capacity rules. Connected load is not automatically simultaneous design flow. Check pressure loss through the route, fittings, and valves, plus the pressure required at the next downstream point. Record served loads, design flow and units, proposed outside diameter and series, allowable loss, and calculation revision. Ask the engineer whether pump head and velocity screening are already included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Must_a_Riser_Be_Checked_at_Its_Highest_or_Remotest_Point\"><\/span>Why Must a Riser Be Checked at Its Highest or Remotest Point?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A riser carries only the flow in that vertical section. Its case includes the floors or zones served, static pressure from elevation, friction and fitting losses, and the pressure required at the critical point. The highest point may govern static pressure; the most remote point may govern available pressure. Tall buildings may have separate pressure zones, so the pump-discharge condition may not represent the whole riser. Put the zone, elevation basis, design flow, critical-point pressure, and any pressure-reducing assumption in the schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_a_Branch_Not_a_Smaller_Copy_of_the_Main\"><\/span>Why Is a Branch Not a Smaller Copy of the Main?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A branch serves a terminal unit, fixture group, or small cluster. Size it from that terminal demand, its own route, and its allowable pressure loss. Copying the main flow onto every branch is a common schedule error. Count the fittings, valves, and transitions the branch actually needs; a short, simple run and a long, congested run at the same flow do not have the same loss case. Record the terminal served, branch flow, fitting assumption, allowable drop, proposed size and series, and approved calculation reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the three segment types together before sending the schedule. A main can be correctly sized yet deliver insufficient pressure to a riser; a riser can be correct yet leave no allowance for branch losses. The schedule should expose those dependencies rather than hide them in one building total.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Should_You_Screen_a_Candidate_Size_Without_Redesigning_the_System\"><\/span>How Should You Screen a Candidate Size Without Redesigning the System?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-2.webp\" alt=\"Infographic titled PP-RCT Pipe Sizing Buyer checks showing three steps: 1 Main with downstream demand, 2 Riser with zone and critical point, and 3 Branch with terminal demand, each labeled buyer check.\" class=\"wp-image-9468\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-2.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-2-500x281.webp 500w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-2-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-2-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-2-18x10.webp 18w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-2-133x75.webp 133w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-2-480x270.webp 480w, https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/inside-2-800x450.webp 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width:767px) 480px, (max-width:1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Screen by inside diameter, not the nominal label. Outside diameter is fixed by the product family, but wall thickness changes the bore. A pipe described as DN50 in one series can therefore behave differently from another DN50 at the same flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then compare velocity, pressure loss, and total installed cost as one package. A smaller bore may reduce material use but increase pump energy, noise sensitivity, or fitting loss. A larger bore may reduce friction but add weight, insulation, support demand, and space conflict. Use the engineer&#8217;s allowable velocity and pressure-loss criteria; do not accept a supplier&#8217;s universal rule as project approval. Use the HVAC and heating duty to frame the application, then verify the exact product data. A trial size is a proposal to test against the design case, not a final selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Should_You_Read_SDR_PN_and_S-Series_in_a_Quote\"><\/span>How Should You Read SDR, PN, and S-Series in a Quote?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SDR, PN, and an S-series designation answer different questions. SDR is a geometry ratio: outside diameter divided by wall thickness. An S-series label is a separate standardized series designation used in some pipe tables; quote it as the supplier&#8217;s table defines it rather than treating it as another word for PN. PN is a nominal pressure class under stated conditions. None of the three, read alone, proves the allowable pressure at your design temperature and life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ask for the model row that links outside diameter, wall series, PN basis, allowable pressure at temperature, design life, and standard. DESO&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/pt\/product\/pp-rct-pipe\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">PP-RCT product page<\/a> lists 20\u2013160 mm sizes, multiple SDR options, and PN10\/PN12.5\/PN16\/PN20. Its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/pt\/ppr-pipe-for-hvac-heating\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">HVAC and heating page<\/a> lists PP-RCT as PN16\u2013PN20. Those page-level lists conflict; neither is a universal DESO range. Require the current SKU\/model table and written pressure-temperature confirmation for the exact item before you approve the quotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Eight_Fields_Make_a_PP-RCT_Pipe_RFQ_Complete\"><\/span>What Eight Fields Make a PP-RCT Pipe RFQ Complete?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Send one schedule that every supplier can price on the same basis.

Put each offer into the same matrix and state differences in the supplier&#8217;s own words. Do not treat an assumed equivalent as a like-for-like offer. Record the supplier&#8217;s basis beside your required basis; use written clarifications to close gaps, not verbal assumptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Identity:<\/strong> model, outside diameter, SDR or S-series, and dimensions match the schedule.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hydraulic basis:<\/strong> quoted size and allowable pressure loss match the approved calculation revision.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Duty:<\/strong> the pressure-temperature row covers fluid, design temperature, pressure, and design life.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Components:<\/strong> fittings, valves, transitions, and tools match the pipe and joining method.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Evidence:<\/strong> SKU sheet, pressure-temperature table, certificate scope, test reports, drawings, marking, and traceability meet the required submittal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Commercial scope:<\/strong> quantity, packing, labelling, shipping basis, delivery milestone, and customization are stated on the same line.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DESO&#039;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/pt\/quality-inspection\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">quality-inspection page<\/a> describes batch testing and inspection, and its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/pt\/manufacturing\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">manufacturing page<\/a> describes production and product marking. Treat both as first-party process descriptions: ask which checks and records apply to your order, and how the shipment marking links to its batch record. A certificate list is not a model map. Leave price out of the decision until the technical and evidence columns align; the lowest pipe price can lose once missing fittings, rework, or an unapproved submittal are added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Three_Buyer_Questions_Should_You_Settle_Before_Approval\"><\/span>What Three Buyer Questions Should You Settle Before Approval?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_You_Size_PP-RCT_Pipe_From_Flow_Rate_Alone\"><\/span>Can You Size PP-RCT Pipe From Flow Rate Alone?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Flow is one input. You also need allowable pressure loss, route length and fittings, fluid, design temperature, design pressure, design life, applicable standard, and the exact SDR or series. A supplier can suggest a trial size from a complete brief, but the engineer&#8217;s calculation governs final selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_a_Larger_Pipe_Always_Safer\"><\/span>Is a Larger Pipe Always Safer?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. A larger bore can reduce velocity and friction, but it may add material, weight, insulation, support, and space cost. It can also move operating velocity away from the intended range. Compare total installed cost and the design pressure-loss target, not size alone, and ask the engineer to confirm the margin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_a_Certificate_Cover_Every_PP-RCT_Size\"><\/span>Does a Certificate Cover Every PP-RCT Size?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not assume so. Check the certificate holder, standard, validity, scope, covered product models, and acceptance in the destination market. A website certificate list is not a certificate-to-SKU map. Request the certificate and scope for the exact size and order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Should_You_Send_With_the_Final_Enquiry\"><\/span>What Should You Send With the Final Enquiry?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A complete PP-RCT pipe sizing package lets the supplier quote the actual product instead of guessing. Send the segment schedule for main, riser, and branch; project conditions including fluid, design flow, allowable pressure loss, temperature, pressure, design life, and applicable standard; exact outside diameter and SDR or S-series; required PN or pressure-temperature basis; fittings, valves, and tools; destination market; quantity and packing; and any customization request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Add the evidence package needed to review the quotation: current SKU sheet, written pressure-temperature confirmation, certificate and scope for the exact model, applicable test reports and drawings, marking and traceability details, and the required submittal format. Ask DESO to mark any item it cannot confirm and to quote against the named calculation revision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That package makes the next reply auditable. A nominal size and a price request are not enough; the conditions and evidence are what make the size defensible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.desopipe.com\/pt\/contact\/\" style=\"background-color:#0588a7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Obtenha um or\u00e7amento gratuito<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quick Answer Start with the design case, not a catalogue size.
