Product Information

Full details

The PrimaPress Pressfit 45 Degree Obtuse Street Elbow is an essential component for professional installers and contractors seeking a reliable, leak-free connection for water and gas lines. Its primary benefit lies in the fast, flameless installation process that saves labor time while maintaining high safety standards through its built-in leak detection system. While it offers industry-leading compatibility, users should note that it requires specific M-profile pressing tools for a proper seal.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this fitting suitable for central heating systems?

Yes, it is suitable for central heating, water, and glycol systems provided the temperature stays within the -10 to 110-degree range.

Can I use this for gas piping?

Yes, it is approved for gas, but it is specifically rated for gas range applications only.

What is the maximum working pressure?

The maximum working pressure is PN16 (16 bar), and the units are tested up to 24 bar.

Does it require specific press tools?

Yes, you must use M-profile press jaws. It is compatible with all standard M press tools.

What does the 50-year warranty cover?

The warranty covers manufacturing defects, provided the installation followed the official guidelines.

How do I know if the press was successful?

The leak detection system will reveal unpressed fittings during an initial pressure test, and visual inspection of the pressed contour will confirm a secure hold.

Troubleshooting

Joint is leaking during initial pressure test

Check if the press cycle was completed fully by the tool. If not, re-press the fitting. If the fitting was pressed correctly, check the pipe end for scratches or debris that may have compromised the O-ring.

Fitting does not fit onto the pipe

Ensure the pipe is perfectly round and free of burrs or deformations. Use a pipe deburring tool to smooth the end before attempting insertion again.

M-jaw is not seating properly on the fitting

Verify that you are using an M-profile jaw. Ensure the fitting is properly seated against the jaw shoulder before initiating the press.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Fast and efficient flameless installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a lifetime of service, follow these installation guidelines:

  1. Preparation: Ensure the pipe end is free of burrs and sharp edges that could damage the internal O-ring seal.
  2. Marking: Insert the pipe fully into the fitting and mark the insertion depth to verify that the pipe does not shift during the pressing process.
  3. Tooling: Use only M-profile pressing jaws matching the fitting size (15mm to 54mm). Do not use V-profile or other jaw types, as they may compromise the integrity of the connection.
  4. Inspection: Perform a low-pressure air or water test to trigger the leak detection system before finalizing the installation.
  5. Maintenance: While the fittings are maintenance-free once installed, ensure that the system pressure does not exceed the PN16 rating and temperatures remain within the -10 to 110-degree range.
