According to DIN 1988 and DVGW worksheet G 600,
TRGI 2008 VSH SUPER compression fitting made of
brass may be installed under plaster.
Under certain conditions brass components (including
nuts, clamp rings of VSH SUPER compression fittings) can
be affected by stress corrosion cracking. This special type
of corrosion leads to component failure.
To prevent this, such systems must not be exposed to
ammoniac or chlorinated environments (e.g. stables,
swimming pools). Furthermore, no condensate should
form on the fittings. Particularly in the areas where fittings
and pipes are continuously cold must be fully and non-
diffusively equipped with closed cell insulation to reliably
prevent condensation. The insulation used and all other
adhesives, additives and coatings have to be absolutely
free of chlorine, ammoniac and nitrite.
If in doubt, a clearance certificate must be obtained from
the manufacturer.
The prescribed processing instructions with information
concerning the correct installation of the union nuts must
be observed.
When using VSH SUPER compression fittings in gas systems,
no oil or grease may be used to facilitate assembly.
Danger of explosion! Only aids authorized in accordance
with the relevant DVGW guidelines and with appropriate
DVGW registration are permitted.
The reuse of a previously used fittings is only permitted
with a new seal set.
