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. 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), white dot on press end, white rectangle with inscription »FKM« 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 FKM (fluorocarbon rubber), matt black, pre-assembled The use of Profipress S and Profipress connectors with FKM sealing elements in potable water and gas installations is not permitted! 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.
