The Viega MegaPress ZL Bronze IPS to CTS
transition coupling is designed to transition
between IPS-sized pipe (Schedule 10 to 40)
to CTS-sized copper, stainless, or PEX tubing with
the use of an additional ProPress fitting.
Cut pipe/tube at right angles/square using
1
displacement-type cutter or fine-toothed steel saw.
Keep end of pipe a minimum of 4" away from
2
the contact area of the vise to prevent possible
damage to the pipe/tube in the press area.
Remove burr from inside and outside of pipe and prep
3
to proper insertion depth using a preparation tool or
fine grit sandpaper. The pipe must be smooth, free of
indentations, pits, and deformations and must be clean
and free of dirt, debris, rust, scale, oil, and grease.
Check seal, separator ring, and grip ring for
4
correct fit. Do not use oils or lubricants.
Mark proper insertion depth as indicated by the
5
Insertion Depth Charts. Improper insertion depth may
result in an improper seal. It is recommended that the
depth marking be visible on the completed assembly.
