Installation Procedure (Press-Fit Side)
Follow these steps for a secure and **leak-free press connection**:
- Cut the Pipe: Accurately cut the pipe to the required length.
- Deburring: Remove burrs from cut ends to protect the internal O-ring seal.
- O-Ring Check: Verify the O-ring is correctly seated for proper sealing.
- Mark the Depth: Mark the required insertion depth on the pipe for alignment.
- Press: Use **approved M-profile pressing tools** to create a permanent, gap-free joint.
- Confirmation: Inspect the joint to ensure secure installation.
O-Ring Material Characteristics and Application
The rubber **O-ring** is crucial for sealing and sanitary performance. Aquinox O-rings use **imported rubber compounds** and are processed under controlled vulcanization conditions. They comply with **GB/T 19228.3-2012**, and drinking-water O-rings meet **GB/T 17219** standards. **EU DVGW-compliant** options are available. These seals resist hot water, ageing, and common drinking-water additives, with different compounds tailored for specific applications.
