Description
90° Compression Tees are essential components for connecting polyethylene (PELD, PEMD, and PEHD) and PPR pipes in various applications including irrigation and water distribution systems. They comply with the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme, ensuring suitability for potable water. With an operating temperature range of -10°C to 80°C, these fittings are reliable for a variety of environments.
The design of the fitting allows for easy installation without the need for complete disassembly. It has been tested to guarantee a PN16 working pressure, making it suitable for use in drinking water conveyance systems, aqueducts, civil installations, irrigation, gardening, fire-fighting systems, geothermal systems, and compressed air systems.
Installation
- Cut the pipe squarely and chamfer the ends.
- Loosen the nut to open the clinching ring for easier pipe insertion. Do not extract the nut or internal components.
- Push the pipe into the fitting until it stops inside the body.
- Tighten the nut completely to secure the fitting for immediate use.
