Arch 90°, 42 x 42

Product detailed description

Press-fit elbows like the IVAR IVC70.42 are essential components in the installation of closed pressurised systems in heating, fire protection, and industrial applications. These systems are commonly found in commercial and industrial buildings, where reliable and leak-free connections are critical. Installers working in central heating ductwork, fire water piping, and air conditioning systems rely on such fittings to ensure efficient and durable system performance. The IVC70.42 is designed for use in environments with fluctuating temperatures and high-pressure conditions, making it suitable for a wide range of technical installations.

When working with this type of elbow, it is important to consider the system's operating parameters and the compatibility of the fitting with other components. The press-fit connection method eliminates the need for welding or threaded joints, reducing installation time and improving system integrity. The IVC70.42 is particularly suited for applications where mechanical damage resistance and long-term durability are required.

Technical parameters

Installation and connection

The IVAR IVC70.42 is installed using a press-fit method, which requires the use of compatible Type M jaws. The connection size is 42 x 42, and the fitting must be pressed into place with the correct tooling to ensure a leak-free seal. During installation, it is important to verify that the pipe ends are clean and free of burrs before pressing. A molding indicator is included to confirm that the connection has been made correctly. Common installation errors include using incorrect tooling or failing to check the molding indicator, which can lead to leaks or system failure.

Compatibility and accessories

The IVC70.42 is compatible with other components in the IVAR.IVC70 range and can be integrated into a variety of piping systems. It is suitable for use with carbon galvanized steel pipes and is designed to work with press-fit systems that use Type M jaws. No additional surface coatings or limiting agents are required, and the fitting is leakproof when properly molded. For larger systems, it is important to ensure that all components are from the same press-fit range to maintain system integrity.

Technical background for designers

The IVAR IVC70.42 is made from carbon galvanized steel, which provides resistance to corrosion and mechanical damage. The press-fit connection method ensures a secure and leak-free joint without the need for additional sealing materials. This type of fitting is particularly suitable for closed pressurised systems where long-term reliability is essential. The operating temperature range and pressure rating are key factors in system design, as they determine the fitting's suitability for different applications. The integration of the molding indicator ensures that the connection has been made correctly, reducing the risk of installation errors.

Service and operation

Once installed, the IVAR IVC70.42 requires minimal maintenance. The press-fit connection is designed to be durable and long-lasting, with no need for re-tightening or resealing. Regular system checks should include verifying the integrity of the connections and ensuring that the system is operating within the specified temperature and pressure ranges. No specific service intervals are required for this component, but it is important to monitor the system for any signs of wear or damage.
