Key Features:

• Exclusive High-Modulus PVC Compound: The Prime Conduit Nonmetallic P&C Duct Type DB is crafted from a high-quality PVC compound that offers superior strength and flexibility. This exclusive material has been specifically developed for power and communication applications, providing excellent durability in both direct burial and concrete encased installations. The tough, flexible design ensures that the conduit can withstand the demands of underground environments while providing a reliable protective barrier for your cables.
• Rated for 90°C Cable: Designed to accommodate high-temperature cable systems, Type DB is rated for 90°C cables, making it ideal for applications where heat dissipation is critical. This temperature rating ensures that the conduit can handle high-performance cables while maintaining the integrity of the installation, even in challenging conditions. This feature provides peace of mind, knowing that your power and communication cables are housed in a conduit designed for long-term reliability.
• Recommended Trenching and Backfill Guidelines: Proper trenching is crucial for ensuring the longevity and stability of your conduit system. Type DB should be installed in trenches that are graded true and free from stones and soft spots, which could compromise the conduit’s integrity. Backfill material should also be free of stones and should be firmly tamped around the sides of the conduit for maximum support. A 6" layer of selected backfill (not tamped) is recommended over the top of the conduit for optimal protection. These installation guidelines help create a secure and stable foundation for your conduit, ensuring long-term performance in a variety of soil conditions.
• Proven Performance in Duct-to-Duct Formations: For installations that require multiple conduits to be laid in layers, the heavier wall Type DB-120 has proven to be a highly effective solution. This type of installation is particularly suitable for applications with limited load conditions, where the durability and strength of Type DB provide reliable support and protection for cables. The robust design of Type DB-120 ensures that it can handle the pressure of layered installations, offering a safe and effective solution for managing multiple conduits in one installation.
