Description
Heavy Duty Compression Wall Plate Elbows are essential fittings used to connect polyethylene (PELD, PEMD, and PEHD) and PPR pipes for the efficient distribution of pressurized fluids in irrigation and water systems. These fittings meet the rigorous requirements of the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme for potable water use and have an operating temperature range of -10°C to 80°C.
Designed with a BSP (GAS) female thread, this fitting does not require complete disassembly for installation, making it user-friendly. It has been rigorously tested to ensure it can handle a PN16 working pressure, making it suitable for a variety of applications including drinking water conveyance systems, aqueducts, civil installations, irrigation, gardening, fire-fighting systems, geothermal systems, waste and industrial water conveyance, and compressed air systems.
Installation
- Cut the pipe squarely and chamfer the ends.
- Loosen the nut to open the clinching ring, making pipe insertion easier. The nut and the internal components (thrust ring and O-ring) should remain within the body.
- Gently push the pipe into the fitting until it reaches the stop inside the body.
- Tighten the nut completely. The fitting is now ready for use.
