Connection fitting - internally threaded - N - 35mm-Rp5/4" IVAR.IVN62

Product detailed description

Internally threaded connection fittings are essential components in the installation of heating, plumbing, and industrial systems. These fittings are used to connect press-fit and threaded components in systems such as sanitary installations, fire sprinkler systems, heating circuits, and solar thermal systems. Installers and technicians working in residential, commercial, and industrial settings regularly use these fittings to ensure secure and leak-free connections. The fitting is designed for use in environments where resistance to corrosion and high temperatures is required, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

When installing this type of fitting, it is important to ensure that the connection is properly compressed and that the sealing ring is undamaged. The fitting must be pressed into the correct dimension to ensure a tight seal and prevent leaks. This is particularly important in systems where high pressure and temperature are present, as any failure in the connection can lead to system downtime or safety issues.

Technical parameters

Material	Stainless steel grade Wst. Nr. 1.4404 (AISI 316L), EPDM O-ring
Operating temperature	-20 °C
Nominal pressure	PN 16
Code	IVN62.3514
Brand	IVAR

The operating temperature range and nominal pressure are critical for selecting the correct fitting for a given application. The maximum temperature of +120°C and PN 16 pressure rating indicate that this fitting is suitable for systems with moderate to high thermal and hydraulic demands. These parameters are essential for determining compatibility with other components and ensuring the fitting can withstand the conditions of the installation.Installation and connection The fitting is installed using a press tool to compress the fitting onto the pipe. The internal thread allows for connection to other threaded components. The connection size is 35 mm for the press side and 5/4 inch for the threaded side. During installation, it is important to verify that the pipe is clean and free of burrs to ensure a proper seal. A common mistake is not pressing the fitting to the correct depth, which can result in a leak. The fitting must be pressed until the indicator reaches the 54 mm mark to ensure a secure connection.

Compatibility and accessories

This fitting is compatible with press-fit stainless steel pipes and other threaded components. It is typically used in conjunction with press tools and cutting tools for pipe preparation. No specific accessories are required for installation, but it is recommended to have a set of standard plumbing tools on hand. For larger systems, additional fittings may be needed to complete the installation.

Technical background for designers

The fitting operates by compressing the stainless steel body around the pipe to form a tight seal. The EPDM O-ring provides additional sealing against leaks. The material, 1.4404 (AISI 316L) stainless steel, is known for its high corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, making it suitable for a wide range of environments. The integration of this fitting into the system depends on the system's pressure and temperature requirements. The service life of the fitting is influenced by the quality of the installation and the operating conditions of the system.

Service and operation

No regular maintenance is required for this fitting under normal operating conditions. However, it is important to periodically check for signs of wear or damage, especially in high-pressure or high-temperature environments. If a leak is detected, the fitting should be replaced immediately to prevent further damage to the system. There are no specific service intervals provided for this fitting.
