Compression coupling for metallic pipes

This is a supremely flexible compression coupling for metallic pipes, soft and hard copper pipes and soft steel pipes in heating, cooling and tap water systems. The same body fits up to seven sizes of all different pipes, ensuring quick and easy installation and saving money by reducing storage space.

Key features

Comprehensive range

For optimum flexibility and faster installation, the FPL is available in a Dy range of 8-28 mm.

Complete or components

For ease-of-maintenance, the FPL is available as a complete coupling or as individual parts.

AMETAL^® construction

Dezincification-resistant alloy that guarantees a longer coupling lifetime, and lowers the risk of leakage.

Technical description

Applications:

Heating and cooling systems.
Tapwater systems.
Process systems where the media does not affect the incoming material.
Gas systems (natural gas, propane and butane)

Function:

FPL compression coupling for soft and hard copper pipes and soft steel pipes.
NOTE! FPL is not approved for gas installations in combination with steel pipes.

A support bush must be used with soft copper and soft steel pipes.

Dimensions:

Dy 8-28 mm.
The large combination possibilities – one connection body size handles several pipe dimensions by only changing the thrust nut and cone – reduces the required storage space substantially.

Pressure class:

PN 16

Temperature:

Max. working temperature: 100°C.
For temperatures over 100°C, please contact closest sales office.

Material:

Parts which are subject to water contact: AMETAL^®

AMETAL^® is the dezincification resistant alloy of IMI Hydronic Engineering.
