Product catalog summary
Specifications:
The document specifies requirements for pressure equipment, detailing maximum/minimum allowable temperatures, volume, nominal size, and fluid types. Equipment is categorized by hazard level based on fluid state, danger classification, type, dimensions, and energetic potential.

Procedures and Standards:
Pressure equipment must comply with Essential Safety Requirements as per Annex I of the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED). Equipment below certain thresholds must follow sound engineering practices. Fluids are divided into Group I (dangerous) and Group II (non-dangerous), with Castel products suitable for Group II refrigerant fluids.

Directive Applications:
The document covers Directive 97/23/EC on pressure equipment and Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS) on restricting hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. The RoHS Directive limits substances like lead, mercury, and cadmium, with exceptions for air conditioning and refrigeration systems.

Castel Products Compliance:
Castel ensures its products are free from mercury, cadmium, PBB, PBDE, or hexavalent chromium, using lead within accepted limits and transitioning to trivalent chromium for surface treatments.

Connections:
Castel products offer various connection types, including threaded (FLARE, NPT, FPT) and solder connections (ODS, ODM, IDS, W). Tables provide equivalence between Castel codes and dimensions in inches and millimeters.

Key Data from Tables:
Tables show equivalences between Castel codes and dimensions, suitable connections for copper and steel pipes, and specific product examples with their respective connections and refrigerants.

Overview:
This document provides detailed specifications and part numbers for copper braze joint pressure fittings, including elbows, tees, couplings, and access fittings, categorized by angles, connections, and reinforcement series, available in metric and inch measurements.

Sections:
  • Elbows: Lists 45° and 90° elbows in male-to-female and female-to-female configurations, available in short and long radius options, with reinforced series for durability. Part numbers, international codes, and packaging details are provided.
  • Tees: Details standard and reducing tees for metric and inch tubing, with reinforced series for enhanced strength.
  • Couplings: Lists female-to-female and reducing couplings with part numbers and packaging information, highlighting reinforced series for additional support.
  • Access Fittings: Describes various access fittings with swivel nuts for ease of installation and maintenance, specifying pressure ratings and temperature ranges.
  • Additional Components: Includes valve cores, caps with gaskets, and copper gaskets with necks for comprehensive sealing and connection solutions.

Key Specifications:
  • Fittings range from 6mm to 80mm for metric tubing, and from 1/4” to 3/8” for inch tubing.
  • Reinforced series fittings are designed for higher pressure and temperature applications.
  • Each fitting type includes detailed part numbers and international codes for easy identification and ordering.

Conclusion:
This document serves as a comprehensive guide for selecting appropriate copper braze joint pressure fittings for various industrial applications, ensuring users can find the right fittings to meet specific requirements.
