Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure all system components (pump, pressure tank, pressure switch, gauge) are powered off and the system is de-pressurized before installation. Apply pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before inserting into the appropriate female ports. Tighten fittings securely but avoid over-tightening, which can damage threads or the fitting.
Compatibility: This fitting uses BSP (British Standard Pipe) threads. Verify that all connecting pipes, gauges, and switches have compatible BSP threads. It is suitable for cold and hot water systems up to 90°C and 10 bar (1.0MPa) pressure.
Care: Clean the exterior of the fitting with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the brass. Periodically check all connections for leaks, especially after initial setup or system pressure changes.
