What Is PVC Type DB‑100 Conduit – 63 mm (2″)?

The 63 mm (2″) PVC Type DB‑100 Conduit is a thick-wall rigid PVC conduit meant for direct burial installation. The 63 mm diameter can be used for high-capacity cable runs, which means that a lot of power, communication, and fiber optic cables can be installed in one conduit. The DB‑100 classification offers the utmost mechanical strength to protect cables against soil pressure, minor impacts, and environmental stress.

Understanding DB‑100 Direct Burial Classification

The DB‑100 classification denotes a heavy-wall conduit designed for high-strength underground applications.

Key Characteristics:

  • Heavy wall for maximum mechanical protection

  • Suitable for direct burial without concrete encasement

  • Resistant to soil pressure, moisture, and minor impact

  • Ideal for residential, commercial, municipal, and industrial projects

Why PVC Conduits Are Ideal for Gulf Region Projects

Corrosion and Chemical Resistance

One major benefit of PVC is the fact that it does not rust and it can remain practically unaltered in saline, alkaline, or moisture-rich soils.

Thermal Stability

The integrity is been kept under high temperatures of Gulf countries both in ambient and soil conditions.

Electrical Safety

The underground installations are safe from electrical hazards because of non-conductive material which prevents electricity from flowing.

Lightweight and Installation Friendly

The labor costs are reduced by simplifying handling, transportation, and installation.

Long Service Life

Interestingly, the harsh Gulf conditions only reduce such performance to around 30-50+ years.

Material Standards & Compliance

The PVC DB‑100 63 mm conduit complies with:

  • ASTM D1785 / D2241 – Rigid PVC pipe and conduit standards

  • NEMA TC-6 & TC-8 – Electrical conduit performance

  • IEC 61386 – International conduit system standards

  • UL 651 / ETL (optional) – Electrical safety certification

  3. Municipal: illuminating streets, providing services to the public, laying fiber optic cable
  4. Telecom: lightning-fast internet and phone lines
  5. Industrial: too much stuff to be monitored, powered, and wired signal-wise

How DB‑100 Direct Burial Systems Work

DB-100 conduits are installed in trenches with prepared soil, joined using solvent weld or mechanical couplers, and backfilled. Directly under the conduit electrical cables are protected from soil pressure, moisture, and the risk of minor impacts, while at the same time, future access for maintenance or upgrades is provided.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

  1. Dig trench down to the necessary depth
  2. Make even and level soil base (optional sand bedding)
  3. Put DB-100 63 mm duct in the trench
  4. Join parts together with either solvent weld or mechanical couplers
  5. Thread wires into the duct
  6. Fill up and pack soil
  7. Place warning tape over the conduit

Design Considerations for KSA & Gulf Region

  • Ambient temperatures that are high
  • Soil conditions that are sandy, saline, or alkaline
  • Light loads on the surface (areas for pedestrians or little-traffic)
  • Capacity for future extension
  • Adherence to the requirements of local utilities and municipalities

Accessories & Fittings

  • Solvent weld couplers

  • Mechanical repair couplers

  • 45° and 90° elbows

  • Pulling eyelets

  • Spacer clips and warning tapes

Performance in Harsh Environmental Conditions

  • UV-resistant for storage and handling
  • Moisture, chemicals, and soil contaminants cannot affect it
  • It remains rigid even with soil settlement and vibration
  • Desert, coastal, and urban environments are no problem for it

Maintenance & Inspection

  • No or very little maintenance needed
  • To be inspected while digging or when changing cables
  • PVC is not susceptible to rust and corrosion which means that the lifecycle costs are lower

Cost Efficiency & Lifecycle Benefits

  • Installation costs are lower than for concrete-encased ducts.
  • The quicker installation lowers the labor costs.
  • It lowers the danger of cable getting damaged.
  • The long lifespan makes the investment very profitable.
