Ipex 257210 Frpp Reducing Sanitary Tee 3x2 Inch Acid Waste

Product Description

The IPEX 257210 is a flame-retardant polypropylene (FRPP) reducing sanitary tee designed for the Enfield electrofusion-joint acid waste drainage system. Sized at 3 inches by 2 inches, this fitting joins chemically resistant drainage lines handling corrosive waste in laboratory, industrial, and institutional settings. The electrofusion socket design uses a heavy-gauge resistance wire molded directly into the socket, eliminating loose components and ensuring controlled, repeatable joint fusion. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters working on chemical waste systems are the primary installers. The fitting complies with ASTM F1412 and ASTM D4101 material standards and is listed to NSF 14 and IAPMO.

The IPEX 257210 is used in non-return-air-plenum chemical waste drainage applications where corrosive or high-temperature effluent requires a reliable, maintenance-free piping system. Typical installations include laboratory drain systems, educational facilities, pharmaceutical plants, and semiconductor manufacturing facilities. The FRPP material supports an operating temperature range of -10 degrees F to 212 degrees F, allowing the system to handle boiling-water flush cycles. This fitting is part of the matched Enfield pipe-and-fittings system, where pipe and fittings are dimensionally coordinated for consistent fusion results and long-term reliability.

Key Features

• Electrofusion socket with molded heavy-gauge resistance wire — no loose components, controlled joint fusion
• Joints completed in approximately 2 minutes, reducing overall installation time on multi-joint runs
• Operating temperature range of -10 degrees F to 212 degrees F supports boiling-water flush procedures
• Flame-retardant polypropylene (FRPP) construction meets ASTM F1412 and ASTM D4101 material requirements
• Listed to NSF 14 and IAPMO for corrosive waste drainage service
• Maintenance-free design eliminates breakage concerns associated with borosilicate glass systems

Compatibility

Designed for use within the IPEX Enfield electrofusion acid waste piping system. Compatible with Enfield FRPP pipe and fittings manufactured to ASTM F1412 for corrosive waste drainage applications. A non-flame-retardant polypropylene (NFRPP) version is also available within the Enfield product line for applications where FRPP is not required.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber familiar with electrofusion joining procedures and applicable plumbing codes, including IPC requirements for chemical waste systems. Power down or isolate the Microprocessor-controlled Enfusion fusion unit per manufacturer instructions before connecting terminal posts. Inspect socket terminal posts and protection ears for debris before each fusion cycle. Do not attempt to join Enfield fittings using solvent cement or mechanical methods — electrofusion is the required joining process for this system.
