SHAFTS & PIEZOMETERS

The field of drilling, whether aimed at the extraction of water for human use or the implementation of works of survey, seismic testing, piezometers, thermal wells, remediation, cathodic protection, is characterized by many specific needs that make it difficult to make products adequately performing and easy to install. RICCINI offers this fundamental segment some of its best products: ECOPOZZO and ECO-SOND, both made of high modulus polypropylene (PPHM), which guarantees the non-toxicity of the tubes and their excellent performance. Different for applications and wall constitution (triple layer co-extruded for ECOPOZZO, single layer compact ECO-SOND), they have in common very high chemical, physical and mechanical performances, an extreme precision in the design of sections and joints, a great ease of installation, reliability. Both are subjected to very strict testing procedures. ECOPOZZO and ECO_SOND are recognizable by the external turquoise/green colour; also for ECO-SOND the interior is of the same colour, while ECOPOZZO has a white interior. Like all Riccini products, they can be cracked or micro-crafted.

ECOPOZZO pipes, made of high-modulus polypropylene PPHM with a triple-layer wall, are manufactured for use in the well industry. The triple-layer walls provide protection against external agents and surface damage, mechanical rigidity in the middle layer, and abrasion resistance in the inner layer; as a result, ECOPOZZO RICCINI is a very strong and robust pipe, capable of easily withstanding the extreme conditions to which well pipes are often subjected—whether from a chemical-physical, mechanical, or operating temperature standpoint—as is the case with the extraction of thermal waters.

RICCINI’s research and development efforts have led to the creation of ECOPOZZO BIOCLEAN, the first sanitized pipe treated against Legionella, with an antibacterial agent incorporated as an additive directly into the formulation; as an integral part of the inner wall, it is evenly distributed, and its protective effect does not diminish over time.

ECOPOZZO represents the most advanced evolution of pipes designed for this sector, offering in a single product all the characteristics that may be required: structural strength, physical-chemical stability, and resistance to microbial attack, seawater corrosion, dissolved gases, and scale formation… Furthermore, since ECOPOZZO does not chemically interact with the soil, it is less prone to clogging of the filtration slots and is often able to dislodge micro-deposits thanks to the minimal expansion movements caused by natural temperature fluctuations. Available in versions with a smooth socket coupling, a threaded coupling without a socket, or a threaded sleeve, it comes equipped with all the accessories and special components required for the relevant sector.

  • D.M. 174:2004
ECO-SOND is a high performance tube made of high modulus polypropylene (PPHM) with compact single-wall for the realization of coatings for piezometric holes, for environmental reclamation (barrier or monitoring wells in contaminated sites), pilot wells, spy wells, cathodic protection systems and for seismic tests in down-hole or cross-hole holes. The joint is of the thread type (flat coupling without socket) with semi-transparent thread obtained from the thickness of the tube. 
The inherent characteristics of the material make it particularly resistant to mechanical, physical and chemical stresses.
The level of release of substances into the ground or groundwater is well below the standard values and this allows ECO-SOND not to interfere with the concentration values of the substances used for analysis. This characteristic is of great benefit also to avoid the clogging of the slots of filtration. Often, in fact, the alternation of expansion and shrinkage due to normal thermal cycles can be sufficient to eliminate micro-fouling.
The resistance to microbial attacks, aggression by dissolved gases, brackish or marine waters is also worth noting. 
ECO-SOND is also suitable for installation at -10 °C and has great resistance even at the highest temperatures. 
(e.g. hot thermal water).

RANGE:

  • Classe SN40 KN/m²: DN/OD 75 – 90 mm in bars of 3 m
  • Classe SN30 KN/m²: DN/OD 114 mm in bars of 3 m
  • Junction: with thread obtained in the thickness of the bar
  • Cracks: for DN/OD 90 and 114 mm diameters, blind or slotted bars with 0.5 mm slots available


SPECIFICATION:

  • D.M. 174:2004
  • Suitable for installation down to -10 °C
