The Rajco Medical Gas Pipeline Copper Fitting – Reducing Elbow is an essential component used in medical gas systems, designed to connect two pipes at an angle (typically 90 degrees) while transitioning from a larger pipe size to a smaller pipe size.
Key Features:
- Material:
- Copper: Made from high-quality copper, which ensures durability, corrosion resistance, and antimicrobial properties. Copper is commonly used in medical gas systems because it maintains the integrity of the gas being transported and is safe for medical environments.
- Functionality:
- This fitting is designed to reduce pipe size at an angle (typically 90 degrees) between two connected copper pipes.
- It allows for a smooth transition in pipe sizes while changing the direction of the gas flow, ensuring no disruptions or pressure losses in the system.
- Design:
- Reducing Elbow: One side of the elbow fitting is smaller than the other, enabling it to connect pipes of different diameters.
- The fitting is typically in the shape of an elbow, allowing pipes to change direction at a specific angle, usually 90 degrees, though other angles may be available based on requirements.
- Applications:
- Primarily used in medical gas pipeline systems in hospitals, healthcare facilities, clinics, and laboratories where gases like oxygen, nitrous oxide, or medical air are transported.
- Helps navigate tight spaces or make necessary directional changes in the gas system while ensuring smooth flow and safety.
- Standards and Compliance:
- Rajco fittings are manufactured in compliance with stringent industry standards, such as ISO 7396-1, NFPA 99, and EN 737-1, ensuring reliability, safety, and quality.
- These standards ensure that the fitting meets the necessary performance criteria for medical gas systems, particularly for clean, sterile gas transport.
- Installation:
- Typically soldered or brazed onto the copper pipes to form a secure, leak-free connection.
- Installation should be done by qualified professionals following safety protocols, ensuring a perfect fit and leak-proof operation within the medical gas pipeline system.
- Benefits:
- Durability: Copper’s resistance to corrosion and wear ensures that the fitting lasts for many years, even under high usage and pressure.
- Reliability: The reducing elbow maintains the integrity of the medical gas flow, reducing the risk of leaks and ensuring consistent pressure.
- Easy Maintenance: Copper fittings are easy to maintain and repair, ensuring the medical gas pipeline system remains safe and efficient.
