Description
Plasson Elbow 32x32mm is a high-quality plumbing and irrigation fitting used to create a 90-degree angle connection between two pipes with a diameter of 32mm. It is part of the Plasson range, renowned for its durable and reliable fittings made primarily for polyethylene (PE) pipe systems.
Key Features:
- Size:
- 32x32mm: Designed to connect two pipes of the same diameter (32mm) at a 90-degree angle.
- Material:
- Typically made from polypropylene (PP), a robust and lightweight material resistant to impact, corrosion, and UV exposure.
- Often includes a rubber O-ring for a watertight seal.
- Design:
- Compression Fitting: Includes nuts and compression rings (or olives) to ensure a secure, leak-proof connection without requiring welding or gluing.
- The 90-degree angle allows for pipe redirection in confined or structured spaces.
Applications:
- Irrigation Systems:
- Widely used in agricultural and garden irrigation networks to redirect water flow efficiently.
- Plumbing Systems:
- Suitable for potable water supply systems, providing a safe and hygienic solution.
- Water Distribution:
- Common in both residential and industrial settings for distributing water or other fluids.
- Repairs and Modifications:
- Ideal for making adjustments or repairs in existing pipe systems where a directional change is needed.
Advantages:
- Durability: Resistant to chemicals, UV light, and corrosion, ensuring a long service life.
- Ease of Installation: No special tools are required; assembly involves tightening the compression nuts.
- Versatility: Compatible with PE pipes and can handle various pressures, depending on system requirements.
- Leak-Proof: Precision-engineered seals ensure a secure connection when correctly installed.
Installation Tips:
- Prepare the Pipe: Cut the pipe ends squarely and remove any burrs to ensure a proper seal.
- Insert Pipe Fully: Push the pipe into the fitting until it reaches the internal stop.
- Tighten the Nut: Hand-tighten the nut and then use a wrench to secure it, ensuring it’s not overtightened.
- Pressure Test: Test the system after installation to verify the integrity of the connection.
Considerations:
- Confirm compatibility with your specific pipe material (usually PE pipes).
- Check the pressure rating to ensure it meets the requirements of your system.
- Ensure it complies with local plumbing standards for potable water systems if used in drinking water applications.
