IVAR.IVC12 - reduced couplings

The IVAR.IVC12 category includes reduced couplings designed for use in heating systems, permanently watered sprinkler systems, compressed dry air, inert gas and industrial applications. These couplings feature one plug-in end and a pressed connection, with a working pressure rating of PN 16 and a temperature range of -20°C to +85°C, with a maximum of +120°C. They are manufactured from carbon galvanized steel and incorporate EPDM O-rings for sealing. The fittings are suitable for reducing pipe diameters in steel piping systems and are compatible with press-fitting tools that provide a pressing indicator up to 54 mm.

These fittings are intended for permanent installation and should not be used in systems where the surface coating could be affected by chemical substances. Installation requires precision pressing to ensure a secure and leak-free connection. Always verify the pressing depth and alignment before completing the connection.

How to choose

• Select the correct size combination based on the nominal diameters of the connected pipes (e.g., 108–54 mm or 22–15 mm).
• Confirm compatibility with press-fitting tools and the presence of a pressing indicator for secure installation.
• Ensure the EPDM O-ring is intact and suitable for the operating medium and temperature range.
• Verify that the system does not contain substances that could interfere with the coating or integrity of the fitting.
• Use only with carbon steel pipes that support plug-in connections and press-fitting methods.
