CAUTION
It is the responsibility of designers of piping
systems to verify the suitability of type 304 and 316 stainless steel
pipe for use with the intended fluid media. The fluid's chemical
composition, pH level, operation temperature, chloride level, oxygen
level, and flow rate and their effect on AISI type 316 stainless steel
must be evaluated by the material specifier to confirm system life
will be adequate for the intended service. Failure to do so may
cause serious personal injury or property damage.
Viega products are designed to be installed by licensed and trained plumbing and mechanical professionals who are familiar
with our products' proper use and installation. Installation by non-professionals may void Viega LLC's warranty.

WARNING
for installing Viega ProPress for Stainless fittings. Failure
to follow all instructions may result in extensive property
damage, serious injury or death.
1. Cut stainless steel tubing only with an approved stainless
steel pipe cutting tool. Cut tubing at right angle to permit
proper joining with the fitting.
2. Keep end of tube a minimum of 4" away from the contact
area of the vise to prevent possible damage to the tube in
the press area.
3. Remove burrs from inside and outside of tubing to prevent
damage of the sealing element.
4. Check seal and grip ring for correct fit. Do not use oils or
lubricants. Use only Viega ProPress XL (Stainless) sealing
elements.
5. Mark proper insertion depth as indicated by Viega ProPress
XL (Stainless) insertion depth chart. Improper insertion depth
may result in an improper seal.
6. Illustration demonstrates proper fit of grip ring, separation
ring and sealing element.
7. While turning slightly, slide press fitting onto pipe to the
marked depth.
Note: End of tube must contact stop.
8. Press Viega ProPress XL (Stainless) fitting connections with
Viega ProPress XL-C rings and V2 ACTUATOR.
Note: Use of Viega ProPress XL rings and/or Actuator (for
Bronze Fittings) will result in an improper connection. See
Ridge Tool operator's manual for proper tool instructions.
9. Open XL-C Ring and place at right angles on the fitting.
XL-C Ring must be engaged on the fitting bead. Check
insertion depth.
10. With V2 ACTUATOR inserted in the tool, open the V2
ACTUATOR as shown and connect the V2 ACTUATOR to
the XL-C Ring.
11. Place the V2 ACTUATOR onto the XL-C Ring. Hold the
trigger until the Actuator has engaged the XL-C Ring. Keep
extremities and foreign objects away from the XL-C Ring and
V2 ACTUATOR during pressing operation to prevent injury or
4" incomplete press.
12. Release V2 ACTUATOR from XL-C Ring and then remove the
2⅜"
XL-C Ring from the fitting on completion of press. Remove
tag from fitting, indicating press has been completed.
Leak Testing with Smart Connect
located by pressurizing the system with air or water. When testing
with water the proper pressure range is 15 psi to 85 psi maximum.
Leak testing with air can be dangerous at high pressures. When
testing with compressed air the proper pressure range is ½ psi to 45
psi maximum. Following a successful leak test, the system may be
pressure tested up to 200 psi with air, or up to 600 psi with water, if
required by local code requirements or project specifications.
