PRESS GAS nozzle - sliding - 54mm IVAR.IVN11 GAS

Product detailed description

This sliding press gas nozzle is used in gas distribution systems in industrial, commercial and residential buildings. It is commonly installed in press-fitting systems where reliable and leak-free connections are essential. The component is suitable for natural gas, biogas and liquid propane applications, and is designed to withstand the hydraulic and thermal conditions typical of such systems. The press connection ensures a secure and durable joint, suitable for both new installations and system extensions.

Technical parameters

Material	Stainless steel Wst. Nr. 1.4404 (AISI 316L), sealing O-ring HNBR yellow
Operating temperature	-20 °C
Nominal pressure	PN 5
Code	IVNGAS11.54
Brand	IVAR

The operating temperature range includes a minimum of -20°C, making it suitable for cold environments. The nominal pressure rating of PN 5 is important for determining compatibility with system design and load conditions. The material selection of stainless steel 1.4404 and HNBR sealing ring ensures resistance to corrosion and chemical exposure, which is essential for long-term performance in gas applications.

Installation and connection

The IVNGAS11.54 is installed using a press-fitting technique. The connection is made by inserting the pipe into the fitting and applying a press tool to form a secure joint. The fitting is designed for use with 54mm pipes and requires a compatible press tool for installation. It is important to ensure that the pipe is clean and free from debris before installation to avoid compromising the seal. A common mistake is improper alignment of the pipe within the fitting, which can lead to leaks or reduced joint strength. After installation, the joint should be visually inspected for proper alignment and deformation.

Compatibility and accessories

This fitting is compatible with other press-fitting components in the IVAR IVN11 GAS series. It is intended for use with stainless steel pipes of the same material grade. For complete system integration, it should be used in conjunction with other press-fittings and tools designed for the same pipe size and material. No additional accessories are required for standard installation, but a suitable press tool is essential for forming the connection.

Technical background for designers

The IVNGAS11.54 operates on the principle of mechanical deformation to form a tight and durable joint. The stainless steel construction provides resistance to corrosion and mechanical stress, while the HNBR sealing ring ensures a gas-tight seal. The material properties of 1.4404 stainless steel include high tensile strength and resistance to both oxidizing and reducing environments. The integration of this component into a gas system depends on the system pressure, temperature and media characteristics. The service life is influenced by the quality of installation, environmental conditions and the integrity of the press connection.

Service and operation

No regular maintenance is required for this component under normal operating conditions. However, it is important to periodically inspect the joint for signs of wear, deformation or leakage. If any issues are detected, the affected joint should be replaced. The component is not designed for disassembly and should be replaced as a complete unit if damaged.
