Benefits

Extreme Efficiency

The high-grade pre-insulation in COOL-FIT significantly enhances thermal energy efficiency by maintaining a consistently sealed cooling circuit and minimizing energy loss, outperforming traditional post-insulated metal piping systems.

Confident Insulation

Robust build pre-insulated pipes, fittings, valves, and flexible hoses vapor sealed with rigid, closed-cell insulation foam and sealing lip. The highly resistant HDPE outer jacket protects the insulation foam and provides an additional layer of insulation.  

Extreme Reliability

Thanks to its material properties, COOL-FIT is condensation and corrosion-free, and longer-lasting than metal alternatives. Also, incrustation is no longer a problem, contributing to maintenance-free operations with a minimum lifespan of 25 years.

Confident Installation

COOL-FIT weighs 60% less than post-insulated steel or copper systems. The simple electrofusion jointing reduces installation time by 50%. Single-person installs are possible and installations in confined spaces are easy.

3-in-1 Concept

Media Pipe

The medium carrying PE100 inner pipe material ensures corrosion and incrustation-free operations. The system is available in dimensions from d16 (0.63 inches) up to d450 (about 18 inches) and can resist pressure up to 16bar (232 psi) at a media temperature of 20°C (68°F).

Insulation

Depending on the COOL-FIT® system, the nominal GF PUR insulation foam thickness is 20mm (0.79 inches) or 40mm (1.57 inches). The insulation supports reliable temperature conditions from -50°C (-58°F) up to +60°C (+140°F).

Pipe Jacket

The HDPE jacket of the COOL-FIT pipes makes the piping system very robust, protecting the GF PUR insulation foam and providing an extra layer of insulation.

Installation

Installing COOL-FIT pipes, fittings and valves is fast and simple thanks to the pre-insulated system components and the electrofusion technology. The installation process takes only a few minutes and the MSA welding equipment from GF Piping Systems ensures a secure connection.

1. Welding wires and electrofusion unit

Designed for fast and easy installation, the electrofusion unit is connected to the installation with welding wires and is suitable for manual or remote start the welding process.

 

2. Welding indicator and tracking code

The tracking code can be scanned and helps with a guided and tracked welding process. For optic or haptic inspection after welding, the welding indicator retracts automatically after successful welding.

3. Pipes and fitting with sealing lip

For fast installation, COOL-FIT pipes are prepared in 5m bars. For shorter sections, the pipes can easily be stripped and peeled. The pre-insulated fittings with sealing-lip ensure a vapour sealed piping system.

4. Fixation

For securing against dislocation during the installation process, the components need to be fixated with appropriate clamping or the GF Piping Systems' fixation tool.

Success Stories

COOL-FIT is an innovative system designed for versatile use in cooling applications. It combines corrosion and maintenance-free components with factory pre-insulation in a reliable and efficient system. Safe, easy and quick to install, this system is ideal for chilled water, glycol and brine applications.
