O-ring GAS - 42mm (yellow) IVAR.IVO.HNBR Z

Product detailed description

This sealing component is used in a range of industrial and building systems where reliable sealing is essential. It is commonly found in heating systems, medical equipment, and industrial gas lines. The O-ring ensures a tight seal between components, preventing leaks and maintaining system integrity. It is particularly suited for environments where temperature fluctuations and moderate pressure are present. The design allows for straightforward installation and integration into press-fit systems, making it a practical choice for installers working with steel pipe systems.

Technical parameters

Operating temperature	-20 °C
Nominal pressure	PN 10
Code	I002584
Brand	IVAR

The operating temperature range of -20°C indicates that the O-ring can be used in cold environments, such as unheated utility rooms or outdoor installations. The PN 10 rating means it is suitable for systems operating at up to 10 bar pressure. These parameters are essential for determining the suitability of the O-ring for specific applications, particularly in systems involving gas or low-pressure industrial media.

Installation and connection

The O-ring is designed for use with press-fit steel pipe systems. It is inserted into a groove within the fitting and compressed during installation to form a secure seal. The connection is made using standard press-fit tools, ensuring a reliable and leak-free joint. It is important to verify that the fitting is compatible with the O-ring's dimensions and that the installation is carried out according to the manufacturer's guidelines. Common installation errors include improper seating of the O-ring or using incorrect tools, which can lead to seal failure. Always check that the O-ring is undamaged and correctly positioned before pressing the fitting into place.

Compatibility and accessories

This O-ring is specifically designed for use with press-fit steel pipe systems and fittings that have a groove for sealing. It is compatible with a range of industrial and heating applications, including medical equipment, fire sprinkler systems, and solar installations. When installing, ensure that the associated fittings and pipes are compatible with the O-ring's specifications. Additional components such as press-fit tools and compatible fittings may be required for a complete installation. No related products are listed for this model.

Technical background for designers

The O-ring functions by creating a compressive seal between two mating surfaces. It is made from materials that are resistant to the media being transported, ensuring long-term performance. The use of EPDM as a sealing material provides good resistance to a range of gases and fluids. The integration of the O-ring into the system depends on the system's pressure and temperature requirements. The service life of the O-ring is influenced by factors such as the quality of installation, the operating conditions, and the compatibility of the media with the sealing material.

Service and operation

No specific service intervals are provided for this O-ring. However, it is recommended to inspect the seal during routine maintenance checks to ensure it remains intact and free from damage. Any signs of wear, deformation, or leakage should be addressed by replacing the O-ring. The system should be depressurised and cooled before any inspection or replacement is carried out to ensure safety.

Frequently asked questions
