Castel has been a leader in the refrigeration and air conditioning industry for fifty years, known for its high-quality components. The company emphasizes quality throughout its production process, certified by UNI EN ISO 9001:2008 and other international standards. Castel products are manufactured with advanced technology, adhering to safety and environmental standards, and are compatible with HCFC and HFC refrigerants.
Orders imply acceptance of Castel's sales conditions. Shipments are at the customer's risk, and packaging is charged at cost. Delivery terms are non-binding, and delays do not justify contract termination. Payments are due at Castel's headquarters, with late payments leading to supply suspension. Complaints must be filed within ten days of receipt. Products are guaranteed for 12 months, covering defects not caused by customer errors. Returns require explicit authorization.
The PED Directive 97/23/CE applies to pressure equipment with a maximum allowable pressure above 0.5 bar. Castel products comply with this directive, ensuring safety and proper design. Products are classified into risk categories based on fluid state, hazard class, equipment type, and dimensions. Castel products are suitable for Group 2 refrigerants, including R12, R22, R134a, R404A, R407C, R410A, R502, and R507.
The RoHS Directive 2002/95/CE restricts hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. Castel products do not contain mercury, cadmium, PBB, or PBDE. Hexavalent chromium has been replaced with trivalent chromium or eliminated where possible. Lead is present within acceptable limits as an alloy element.
The REACH Regulation 1907/2006/CE requires registration of chemicals. Castel is not a manufacturer or importer of substances, thus not subject to registration obligations. As a downstream user, Castel ensures compliance through its suppliers.
The document provides technical specifications and guidelines for various types of connections and valves used in hydraulic systems, particularly focusing on Castel products. It includes details on threaded and solder connections, pressure containment, and external leakage standards.
- Threaded Connections: Include FLARE, NPT, and FPT types, suitable for joining fittings or valves to vessels or steel pipes. The FPT connection follows the ISO 228/1 standard.
- Solder Connections: Four types are described: ODS (female for copper tubes), ODM (male for copper tubes), IDS (male for copper tubes with internal diameter), and W (for steel pipes).
- External Leakage: Products are tested for tightness according to EN 12284:2003, ensuring no bubbles form during immersion tests.
- Pressure Containment: Hydrostatic tests guarantee a pressure strength of at least 1.43 times the PS, complying with Directive 97/23/EC. Burst tests ensure a strength of at least 3 times the PS, with some products reaching 5 times the PS as per UL 207:2009.
The document includes tables showing equivalence between Castel codes and dimensions in inches and millimeters, as well as specific product examples like solenoid valves and filter driers with solder connections.
The catalogue lists various components such as thermostatic expansion valves, solenoid valves, safety devices, check valves, pressure regulators, and more, with specifications for refrigerants and operating conditions.
- Table 1: Equivalence between Castel codes and dimensions in inches.
- Table 2: Equivalence between Castel codes and dimensions in millimeters.
- Table 3: Details on FLARE connections suitable for copper tubes.
- Table 4: Details on FPT connections with various thread sizes.
The document provides detailed specifications for valves, including temperature ranges, rated capacities, and connection types. For example, rated capacities for temperature ranges -40 to +10°C and -60 to -25°C are based on specific evaporating and condensing temperatures, as well as refrigerant liquid temperatures ahead of the valve.
The catalogue includes valves with SAE Flare and ODS connections, both with and without coils. It specifies direct acting, diaphragm pilot operated, and piston pilot operated valves, each with different Kv values, pressure (PS), and temperature (TS) ratings.
Orifice assemblies are supplied with filters and are available in various types, each with specific rated capacities for different refrigerants like R22, R134a, R404A, R507, R407C, and R410A.
Each product listing includes part numbers, connection sizes, Kv values, pressure and temperature ratings, and packaging details. The document also lists the degree of protection (IP ratings) for certain components.
The document also covers ball shut-off valves, fusible plugs, and unions, each with detailed specifications regarding connections, pressure, and temperature ratings.
