45° moulded arch - N - 15mm IVAR.IVN73

Product detailed description

Stainless steel elbows are essential components in the installation of heating, plumbing and industrial systems. They are used to redirect the flow of media in pipelines, ensuring smooth and efficient operation. In residential and commercial buildings, these fittings are commonly found in central heating systems, hot water circuits and industrial process lines. Installers must ensure that the elbow is correctly sized and compatible with the system's pressure and temperature requirements to avoid leaks or system failure.

When working with stainless steel elbows, it is important to consider the material properties and the operating conditions. The elbow must be installed with care to maintain the integrity of the system and to ensure long-term performance.

Technical parameters

Installation and connection

Installation of the IVAR IVN73.15 requires the use of a flaring tool to create a secure connection. The elbow is designed for use with 15 mm diameter pipes and must be flared to a dimension of 54 mm for a leak-free seal. The installer should verify that the pipe is clean and free from burrs before flaring. Common installation mistakes include insufficient flaring, which can lead to leaks, and using incorrect tools, which may damage the fitting or the pipe.

Compatibility and accessories

This elbow is compatible with other stainless steel fittings and pipes in the IVAR range. For a complete installation, it may be necessary to order additional components such as flaring tools, sealing rings or pipe cutters. The elbow is suitable for use in systems that require a 45° bend and can be integrated into both new and existing installations.

Technical background for designers

The elbow is designed to be flared onto the pipe, creating a secure and leak-free connection. The material's properties ensure that the elbow can withstand a wide range of operating conditions, including high temperatures and aggressive media. The elbow's performance is influenced by the quality of the flaring process and the compatibility of the system's other components.

Service and operation

Regular inspection of the elbow is recommended to ensure that the connection remains secure and leak-free. The installer should check for signs of wear, corrosion or damage, particularly in areas where the elbow is exposed to high temperatures or aggressive media. If any issues are identified, the elbow should be replaced immediately to prevent system failure. No specific service intervals are provided, but periodic checks are advised as part of routine maintenance.
