Press connector with SC‑Contur:

Inadvertently unpressed connections become visibly leaky when the system is filled. Viega guarantees the detection of unpressed connections in the following pressure ranges:

• Minimum water pressure: 0.1 MPa / 1 bar / 14.5 PSI.
• Maximum water pressure: 0.65 MPa / 6.5 bar / 94.3 PSI.
• Minimum air pressure: 22 hPa / 22 mbar / 0.3 PSI.
• Maximum air pressure: 0.3 MPa / 3 bar / 43.5 PSI.

Tools:

The functional safety of Viega press connector systems depends primarily on the faultless condition of the press tools used. For the manufacture of press connections, Viega recommends the use of Viega press tools. Viega press tools have to be regularly maintained by authorized service partners.
