Description
Premium Compression End Caps are essential components for closing off sections of polyethylene (PELD, PEMD, and PEHD) and PPR pipes, specifically designed for the distribution of pressurized fluids in irrigation and water systems. These fittings meet the requirements of the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme for potable water and can operate in temperatures ranging from -10°C to 80°C.
These fittings do not require complete disassembly for installation, making them user-friendly and efficient. They are designed and tested to ensure a PN16 working pressure, making them suitable for various applications including drinking water conveyance systems in aqueducts and civil installations, irrigation and gardening, fire-fighting systems, geothermal systems, waste and industrial water conveyance, and compressed air systems.
Installation Instructions
- Cut the pipe squarely and chamfer the ends.
- Loosen the nut to open the clinching ring to facilitate easier pipe insertion. The nut and the internal components (thrust ring and O-ring) should not be removed from the body.
- Gently push the pipe into the fitting until it stops inside the body.
- Tighten the nut completely. The fitting is now ready for use.
