Ipex 257206 Frpp Fusion Acid Waste Sanitary Tee 2 Inches

Product Description

The IPEX 257206 is a 2-inch flame-retardant polypropylene (FRPP) sanitary tee fitting designed for chemical and acid waste drainage systems. It is part of the IPEX Enfield electrofusion-joint system, which uses heavy-gauge resistance wire molded directly into each socket to produce controlled, repeatable fusion joints. The fitting handles an operating temperature range of -10 degrees F to 212 degrees F, making it suitable for systems that require periodic flushing with hot or boiling water. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this fitting in corrosive waste drain, waste, and vent (DWV) piping systems.

The IPEX 257206 is used in non-return-air-plenum chemical waste applications in laboratory, industrial, healthcare, and educational facilities. The Enfield system is suited for horizontal and vertical drain runs where corrosive effluent from acid-producing processes, chemical washdowns, or laboratory drainage must be safely conveyed. FRPP construction resists a broad range of acids, bases, and solvents encountered in these environments. A non-flame-retardant polypropylene (NFRPP) version is available separately for installations where flame-retardant classification is not required.

Key Features

• Flame-retardant polypropylene (FRPP) construction rated for chemical and acid waste service
• Electrofusion joints complete in approximately 2 minutes, reducing total installation time
• Heavy-gauge resistance wire molded into sockets eliminates loose components and ensures consistent fusion
• Operating range of -10 degrees F to 212 degrees F allows boiling-water flushing of the system
• Complies with ASTM F1412 for polyolefin corrosive waste drainage pipe and fittings
• Listed to NSF 14 and IAPMO standards
• Matched pipe-and-fitting system designed for long-term reliability and ease of installation

Compatibility

Designed for use within the IPEX Enfield electrofusion pipe and fittings system for corrosive waste drainage. Pipe and fittings comply with ASTM F1412 and material requirements of ASTM D4101 for polypropylene injection and extrusion materials. Consult IPEX Enfield system documentation to confirm specific pipe and fitting compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation of acid waste and corrosive drainage systems should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Electrofusion joints require a microprocessor-controlled fusion unit matched to the Enfield system — do not use generic heat-fusion equipment. Shut off all flow and verify the piping is dry and clean before making fusion joints. Fittings must be fully seated to the socket stop and terminals properly connected before initiating the fusion cycle.
