The maximum temperature and pressure ratings of Apollo® Expansion PEX pipe are

in accordance to ASTM F876, CSA B137.5 and PPI TR-3. The designer shall determine

the actual conditions and apply the appropriate and additional design factors as

required for any particular project. The temperature and pressure ratings apply to

the application of Apollo® Expansion PEX pipe for conveying heating and cooling

water at the 2.0 safety factor on allowable working pressure according to ASTM

and CSA. According to the Apollo® Expansion PEX warranty, the warranty period

of 25 years is for operating conditions at or below 180ºF (82.2ºC) in permitted

applications when the handling, use, installation and maintenance continually

complies with all Apollo® Expansion PEX technical guidelines.
