Connection fitting - for flat gasket - N - G 1"-22mm; stainless steel IVAR.IVN61

Product detailed description

This connection fitting is commonly used in heating, plumbing and industrial installations where secure and reliable connections are essential. It is frequently found in systems such as hot and cold water supply, heating circuits, fire sprinkler systems, and solar thermal applications. The fitting is designed for use with flat gasket seals and is suitable for both new installations and system upgrades. It is particularly useful in environments where corrosion resistance and long-term durability are required.

The IVAR IVN61.2210 is ideal for use in residential, commercial and industrial buildings. It is often installed by heating engineers, plumbers and technical service personnel who require a high-performance connection solution for stainless steel piping systems. The fitting ensures a tight seal and is compatible with press and slip-on connection methods.

Technical parameters

Installation and connection

Installation of the IVAR IVN61.2210 involves connecting the fitting to a stainless steel pipe using a flat gasket seal. The fitting features a 1-inch nominal size and a 22 mm internal diameter. The press connection method requires the use of a compatible press tool to ensure a secure fit. The slip-on connection method requires the use of a mating nut and washer. It is important to ensure that the mating surfaces are clean and free from debris to prevent leaks. A common mistake during installation is failing to compress the gasket to the correct dimension of 54 mm, which can result in a poor seal.

Compatibility and accessories

This fitting is compatible with standard stainless steel piping systems and is designed to work with flat gasket seals. It is typically used in conjunction with press tools and slip-on nuts. When installing, ensure that all mating components are from the same system to maintain compatibility and performance. No specific accessories are required for basic installation, but additional components such as sealing rings may be needed in certain applications.

Technical background for designers

The IVAR IVN61.2210 operates by creating a sealed connection between two pipe ends using a flat gasket. The EPDM O-ring ensures a tight seal and is resistant to a wide range of fluids and gases. The fitting is designed to integrate seamlessly into stainless steel piping systems and is suitable for use in both new and existing installations. The service life and efficiency of the fitting are influenced by the quality of the installation, the condition of the mating surfaces and the operating conditions of the system.

Service and operation

Regular inspection of the fitting is recommended to ensure that the seal remains intact and that there are no signs of wear or corrosion. The O-ring should be checked for any signs of degradation or leakage. If any issues are detected, the fitting should be replaced to prevent system failure. No specific service intervals are provided, but it is advisable to inspect the fitting during routine maintenance checks.
