Presented by PPFA TIPS Product Line Committee
Thermoplastic industrial piping systems (TIPS) have been successfully used for over seven decades. To educate the engineering community to a variety of commonly used plastic piping materials, the TIPS product line committee of Plastic Pipe and Fittings Association (PPFA) has created a professional, generic (not favoring any one plastic material or manufacturer) tutorial. The purpose of the tutorial is to educate audiences to the dos and don’ts of TIPS. The tutorial will include Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC), Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), and Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) plastic piping materials.
This eight hour online course presents presented in colorful and clear PowerPoint with narration to include the following sections: Introduction & History, Features & Benefits, Engineering Design, Joining/Installing/Testing/Repairing Methods, Product Availability, Selecting the Proper Plastic Piping Material and Applications.
This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of the course materials.
