Arch 45° FF, 35 x 35

Product detailed description

Press fittings like the IVAR IVC22.35 are commonly used in closed heating systems, industrial ductwork, and fire suppression installations. These components allow for quick assembly without the need for welding or threaded connections, making them ideal for use in commercial and industrial buildings. Installers working on central heating, refrigeration, or air-conditioning systems will find this fitting suitable for connecting ducts and pipes in pressurised environments. The fitting is also compatible with solar system piping and dry air or inert gas applications.

When working with press fittings, it is essential to ensure that the system design accounts for thermal expansion and contraction. The fitting must be installed in a way that maintains alignment and minimises stress on the joints. The operating temperature range and pressure rating must also be considered to ensure long-term reliability.

Technical parameters

Installation and connection

The IVAR IVC22.35 is installed using a press tool compatible with Type M jaws. The fitting has a 35 x 35 mm connection size and requires a molding indicator to confirm successful assembly. During installation, the installer must ensure that the pipe ends are clean and free from burrs. A common mistake is failing to verify the molding indicator, which can lead to leaks or poor sealing. The press tool must be applied evenly to avoid misalignment or damage to the fitting.

Compatibility and accessories

This fitting is designed to work with other IVAR press components and is compatible with EPDM O-rings. It is not certified for use with drinking water, so alternative fittings must be selected for potable water systems. When assembling a system, ensure that all components are from the same press fitting range to maintain compatibility. No additional surface coatings or limiting agents are required for installation.

Technical background for designers

The IVAR IVC22.35 is made from carbon galvanized steel, which provides resistance to mechanical damage and corrosion in non-potable water and industrial applications. The EPDM O-ring ensures a tight seal under operating conditions. The fitting is designed to integrate into pressurised systems where high pressure resistance is required. The material properties and pressure rating are key factors in determining the fitting’s suitability for a particular application. The operating temperature range and media compatibility must be considered when designing the system layout.

Service and operation

Once installed, the fitting requires no regular maintenance. However, it is important to periodically check for signs of wear, especially in high-pressure or high-temperature environments. The molding indicator should be visually inspected to confirm that the press connection remains intact. If any leaks or misalignment are observed, the fitting should be replaced immediately. No specific service intervals are provided for this component.

Frequently asked questions

Can the IVAR IVC22.35 be used in solar system piping?
Yes, it is suitable for solar system applications as long as the operating temperature and pressure conditions are within the specified range.

Is this fitting compatible with inert gas systems?
Yes, it is designed for use with inert gases and dry air, provided the system pressure does not exceed 16 bar.

Can it be used in potable water systems?
No, the fitting is not certified for drinking water and should not be used in systems where potable water is transported.

What type of press tool is required for installation?
A press tool compatible with Type M jaws is required to ensure a secure and leak-free connection.
