Arch 45° PRESS GAS - 42mm IVAR.IVN22 GAS

Product detailed description

In professional heating and gas distribution systems, precise and reliable fittings are essential for safe and efficient operation. The IVAR Arch 45° PRESS GAS - 42mm is a press elbow used in gas pipelines for residential and commercial buildings. It is commonly installed in systems transporting natural gas, biogas and liquefied propane gas in the liquid phase. This fitting is designed for use in environments with low ambient temperatures and is suitable for integration into press-fitting systems that require directional changes in the pipeline without the need for additional support structures.

Installers working on gas distribution systems often encounter the need to make angular adjustments in the pipeline layout. The 45° elbow provides a gradual change in direction, reducing turbulence and pressure loss in the system. It is particularly useful in tight spaces or where a less abrupt turn is required compared to a 90° elbow. The fitting is compatible with press-fitting systems and is used in conjunction with other press components to ensure a secure and leak-free connection.

Technical parameters

Installation and connection

The fitting is installed using a press tool to compress the connection and create a secure joint. The connection is made using press fittings with the appropriate thread type and dimensions. It is important to ensure the pipe is clean and free of debris before installation. Common installation mistakes include incorrect tooling, insufficient compression or misalignment of the fitting. Installers should verify the correct size and orientation of the elbow before pressing to avoid leaks or system failure.

Compatibility and accessories

This 45° press elbow is compatible with other press components in the IVAR.IVN22 GAS system. It is used in conjunction with straight press pipes and other press fittings to create a complete gas distribution system. Additional components such as straight pipes, T-junctions and other elbows may be required depending on the system layout. Installers should ensure all components are from the same system to maintain compatibility and system integrity.

Technical background for designers

The 45° press elbow operates by allowing a directional change in the pipeline while maintaining a smooth flow of gas. The stainless steel 1.4404 material is selected for its resistance to corrosion and mechanical stress. The HNBR sealing ring ensures a tight seal and is resistant to the effects of gas media. The integration of this fitting into the system depends on the overall pipeline design and the need for directional changes. The service life and efficiency of the fitting are influenced by the quality of installation, the operating conditions and the compatibility with other system components.

Service and operation

Regular inspection of the press connection is recommended to ensure there are no signs of wear or leakage. The sealing ring should be checked for any signs of degradation or damage. If any issues are detected, the fitting should be replaced to maintain system integrity. No specific service intervals are provided in the technical data, but maintenance should be performed as part of routine system checks.

Frequently asked questions
