Range overview
Flow-optimised press connector system made of copper (99.9 % Cu-DHP), gunmetal or silicon bronze for copper pipes. Press connectors for protecting the sealing element equipped with cylindrical pipe guide. Press connectors from d64.0 with stainless steel cutting ring to ensure the mechanical strength of the connection. The pressing force is located before and behind the sealing element seat. Suitable for concealed and pre-wall installations of riser pipes and floor installations. Marking Manufacturer, pipe dimension, batch, approval markings (DVGW), green dot on press end, detachable orange label as press indicator from d64.0 Press connector with SC-Contur Inadvertently unpressed connections are noticed immediately during a leakage test. Viega guarantees the detection of unpressed connections in the following pressure ranges: Min. water pressure: 0.1 MPa / 100kPa / 1 bar / 14.5 PSI Max. water pressure: 0.65 MPa / 650kPa / 6.5 bar / 94.3 PSI Min. air pressure: 22 hPa / 2.2 kPa / 22 mbar / 0.3 PSI Max. air pressure: 0.3 MPa / 300kPa / 3 bar / 43.5 PSI Sealing elements EPDM (ethylene propylene diene rubber), black, pre-assembled Notice The sealing materials of the press connector system are subject to thermal ageing, which depends on the media temperature and the operating time. In the case of special operating conditions, e.g. industrial heat recovery systems, it is necessary to compare the specifications of the appliance manufacturer with the specifications of the press connector system. Before using the press connector system beyond the areas of application described or if in doubt about the correct selection of material, please contact Viega. Dimensions d12–108.0, size availability in accordance with the national regulations Tools The functional safety of Viega press connector systems depends primarily on the faultless condition of the press tools used. For the installation of press connections, Viega recommends the use of Viega press tools. Viega press tools have to be regularly maintained by authorised service partners.
Note - Limitations of use potable water The press connector system Profipress is suitable for the creation of potable water installations according to DIN 1988‑200 and EN 806‑2 in consideration of the selection of material in accordance with DIN EN 12502‑1 and according to the evaluation basis for metallic materials in contact with potable water of the Umweltbundesamt (UBA) (Federal Environment Agency). When used for other areas of use and when in doubt about the right selection of material, please contact Viega. With regard to the possible exceeding of the limit value for copper ions according to the Potable Water Ordinance (PWO), pipes and connectors made of copper may only be used when the pH value is ≥ 7.4 or the total volume of organic carbon does not exceed TOC = 1.5 mg/l at values between pH = 7.0–7.4! Operating conditions The press connector system Profipress can be used with the following operating parameters: Potable water installation according to DIN 1988‑200 / DIN EN 806‑2 Operating temperature max. 80 °C / 176 °F Operating pressure max. 1.0 MPa / 10 bar / 145 PSI Temperature max. 95°C over a period of 60 min. Heating systems in accordance with DIN EN 12828 Operating temperature max. 105 °C / 221 °F
Press connector material Copper: 99.9 % Cu-DHP Gunmetal: CC499K Silicon bronze: CC246E / CuSi4Zn9MnP
