The system is intended for underground device connection pipelines for
gas devices for use outside. Press connectors are not permitted in
underground liquid gas pipelines.
For gas installations, observe the applicable regulations, see
lations from section: Notes on mounting“ on page 7.
NOTICE!
Active and possibly passive protection measures are
required to protect a gas installation from tampering by
unauthorised persons, see
Active protective measures (e. g. gas flow monitor) must
always be taken.
Passive protective measures (e.g. gas safety plugs and
caps) must be selected and employed depending on the
installation.
The following conditions amongst others are valid when laying gas
supply lines:
n
Lay gas supply lines with clearance from the installation body, con-
cealed without hollow spaces or in ventilated ducts or shafts.
n
Do not install gas supply lines with operating pressures > 100 hPa
(100 mbar) concealed in the wall.
n
Arrange gas supply lines in such a way that condense water or water
dripping from other pipes and components does not affect them.
n
Do not lay gas supply lines in screed.
n
Shut-off systems and detachable connections must be easily acces-
sible.
Requirements on concealed installations:
n
Lay stress-free.
n
Apply corrosion protection.
n
Do not use any detachable connections (screw fittings).
n
Do not use copper pipes together with materials containing nitrite or
ammonium.
Continuous, connection-free gas supply lines may be laid in
hollow spaces (pre-wall constructions) to be connected to a
gas device or a gas socket.
Ventilation is not required.
