Connection fitting PRESS GAS - for flat gasket - G1"-22mm IVAR.IVN60 GAS

Product detailed description

This press connection fitting is commonly used in residential and commercial gas supply systems, including natural gas, biogas, and liquid propane installations. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications where a secure, leak-tight connection is required. Installers working on gas pipelines for domestic heating, industrial gas systems, or gas-fired appliances will find this fitting ideal for connecting 22 mm pipe ends to standard G1 threaded components. The fitting ensures compatibility with standard pipe dimensions and supports reliable sealing in low-pressure gas environments.

Correct installation of this fitting is essential to ensure long-term performance and safety in gas systems. It is particularly suited for systems where flexibility in routing and frequent disassembly are not required, such as fixed gas lines in buildings or industrial facilities. The fitting requires careful preparation of the pipe ends and adherence to standard press fitting procedures to avoid misalignment or seal damage during installation.

Technical parameters

The nominal pressure rating of PN 5 indicates suitability for low-pressure gas systems, while the operational temperature range from -20°C to +70°C allows for use in a variety of climates and building environments. These parameters are critical for ensuring correct sizing and compatibility with the intended gas distribution system and associated components.Installation and connection The fitting connects a 22 mm pipe end to a G1 threaded component using a flat gasket and a press connection method. The installation process involves placing the flat gasket between the pipe and fitting, aligning the connection, and applying a press tool to secure the joint. It is important to ensure that the pipe ends are clean and free from burrs before installation to prevent seal damage. Common installation errors include incorrect alignment, over-pressing, and using mismatched gasket sizes. Installers should verify that the pipe wall thickness is within the recommended range for the fitting’s design and that all components are compatible with the intended gas media.Compatibility and accessories This fitting is designed to work with standard 22 mm pipes and G1 threaded components. Additional components such as flat gaskets, press tools, and sealing rings may be required for full installation. It is recommended to use only approved sealing materials and tools to maintain system integrity and compliance with safety standards. Related products include standard press tools and gaskets suitable for low-pressure gas applications.Technical background for designers The fitting operates on the principle of mechanical compression to create a gas-tight seal between the pipe and fitting. The stainless steel body provides resistance to corrosion and ensures long-term durability in gas environments. The material choice also allows for compatibility with various types of gases, including those with potential chemical reactivity. Proper integration into the system requires consideration of pipe routing, expansion compensation, and pressure drop calculations. The service life of the fitting is influenced by factors such as installation quality, gas purity, and environmental conditions.Service and operation Routine inspection of the fitting is recommended during scheduled system maintenance to detect signs of wear, corrosion, or leakage. There are no specific service intervals provided, but any visible damage or suspected leaks should be addressed immediately. The fitting does not require regular lubrication or adjustment under normal operating conditions. For long-term reliability, it is important to ensure that the system remains within the specified pressure and temperature limits and that the gas media is compatible with the fitting’s materials.Frequently asked questions

Can this fitting be used with biogas systems?
Yes, the fitting is approved for use with biogas and is compatible with the chemical composition and pressure levels typically found in such systems.

What type of sealing ring is used in this fitting?
A yellow HNBR sealing ring is used to ensure a tight seal between the pipe and fitting. This material is resistant to gas media and maintains flexibility across the operating temperature range.

Is this fitting suitable for high-pressure gas applications?
No, the fitting is rated for nominal pressure PN 5 and is intended for low-pressure gas systems only. It is not suitable for high-pressure applications beyond its design limits.

Can this fitting be used in outdoor gas installations?
Yes, the stainless steel construction and sealing materials provide protection against environmental exposure, making the fitting suitable for outdoor use within the specified temperature range.
