 Technical data

  • Fluids of use: water, glycol solutions (max. 50 % of glycol)
  • Temperature range: 5÷110 °C
  • Max. working pressure: 10 bar Materials
  • Nut, ferrule and hose connection: brass
  • Separation ring: plastic material
  • Black O-Ring for hydraulic seal: EPDM complying with EN 681-1 Standard  Installation 1) The pipe must be cut perpendicularly to its axis using the R990 pipe cutter for plastic pipes or the R990M pipe cutter for multilayer pipes (to make the cut easier and limit the ovality, rotate slightly the pipe cutter during the operation). 2) Deburr the pipe inlet with RP205 tool. 3) Calibrate the pipe with RP209 tool (only in case of multilayer pipes). 4) Lubricate either the hydraulic sealing elements or the internal surface of the pipe in contact with the internal o-ring with lubricants suitable for use with the system material and the intended application of the system. 5) Fit the nut on the pipe. 6) Fit the ferrule on the pipe. 7) Fit the separation ring (only in case of multilayer pipes). 8) Insert the hose connection into the pipe, till the end. 9) Fit the adaptor in the terminal of the thermo-hydraulic distribution/regulation system (i.e.: manifold’s outlets). 10) Proceed with the tightening of the nut to the terminal of the thermo-hydraulic distribution/regulation system.  WARNING. In the joint of the multilayer pipes to the thermo-hydraulic distribution/regulation systems, the interposition of the plastic separation ring between the uncovered surface of the metallic pipe layer and the adaptor body, prevents the arising of electro-corrosive phenomenon that could compromise the joint reliability. An excessive torque value to the terminal of the thermo-hydraulic distribution/ regulation system risks to compromise either the mechanical or the hydraulic behaviour of the fitting.  Reference Standards
  • EN 1254–3: copper and copper alloys - Hydraulic fittings - Fittings for plastic pipes with compression terminals.
  • EN 681-1: elastomer sealing elements - Material requirements for sealing joints in pipes used for water supply and discharge.  Product specifications R179AM Gas thread (1/2” or 3/ 4”Eurocone) adaptors for plastic or multilayer pipes for use in plumbing systems.
