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. Contact Viega
Technical Services for questions and approvals.

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.
Read, understand and follow all instructions
Leak Testing with Smart Connect
Unpressed connections are located by
pressurizing the system with air or water.
