    It is equipped with a specifically shaped clamping ring to allow it to be pushed onto the pipe. The connector has a window for checking the insertion depth. Geopress K repair coupling 10 from 23...
  • Page 11 Product information SC-Contur Fig. 2: SC-Contur Viega press connectors are equipped with the SC-Contur. The SC- Contur is a safety technology that is certified by the DVGW and ensures that the connector is guaranteed to be leaky in an unpressed state.
  • Page 12: Markings On Components

    The position of newly laid pipes and connection lines, including detailed information about pipeline parts, must be documented and regularly updated. The traceability code on the connector allows every connector to be traced back and simplifies the documentation in as-completed drawings. Geopress K repair coupling 12 from 23...
