Purple PVC Primer Toxic??

[DxSOR25]

I have a food grade brute container for RO Water. With the bulkhead and pvc I used the purple pvc primer. On this inside of the container is some pvc with the purple pvc primer on the outside therefore making direct contact with the RO water. Is this bad? Will I have to start over and most likely chuck this bulkhead? or is it okay?

Thanks

I believe as long as you gave the primer sufficient time to... prime, should be okay.

Yeah I gave it 30-45 mins before I even thought about it. Might be dumping and just waiting overnight

This. Whatever time it says on the bottle for setup time and then your good to go. I usually give it about 10 minutes of setup and keep going.

Yes- most of us use it for plumbing by oatley

So you think I’m good or just wait overnight to be safe. Easy to do still as there’s not much water yet haha

Crack open a can of your favorite, and just let it sit overnight if it makes you feel better :)

I use it all the time and you can apply as you will next use PVC glue and that you can allow overnight although ive had instances where I ran water within a couple of hours

The can of Oatey Fusion one step I used to plumb my UV I think said 15 minutes to set and 2 hours for pressurized use. I think the full cure was around 24 hours. It was set up within seconds of pushing parts together and I had water going thru it in probably 10 minutes. No adverse issues at all.

I've used loads of primer. I let it dry for an hour before running water through. In emergencies I've seen people run water 5 mins later
