| Easy-to-install Permasert system |
| In
addition to saving time and money, using
a Perfection Gas Distribution System instills
the confidence of knowing you will repeatedly
achieve a safe gas-tight connection. Our
easy five-step installation procedure
assures you of consistent positive connections
that prevent pull-out of the pipe or tubing. |

 |
| Cut the PE piping so that the end is square. |
|
Wipe with a clean dry cloth. Inspect the last
several inches of the PE piping for damage. If any, cut again to
remove damaged area. |
| |
 |
|
 |
| Use the Perfection chamfering
tool for a proper O.D. Chamfer. This chamfer
permits the PE piping to be completely stabbed
without affecting the internal seals. |
|
Use a soft felt tip
pen, crayon or grease pencil to mark the
stab depth as indicated on your Permasert
package instructions. The stab depth is
the approximate distance from the edge of
the fusion bead to the end of the fitting
body. |
| |
 |
|
Stab the PE piping into the Permasert
fitting so that the stab depth mark is visible:
- Within 1/8" of moisture seal on 1/2" CTS and 1" CTS sizes
- Within 1/4" on all other sizes through 1-1/4" CTS
- Approximately 3/8" on 1-1/4" IPS and 2" IPS sizes
The PE piping must bottom out in the fitting.
Pressure test the joint in accordance
with your standard procedures. The reference
mark can move outward up to an additional
3/8" during pressure testing. |
