Reducing connector, nipple, copper, for medical gases 35-28 MG5243 0352800

Intended Use and Application in Medical Installations

This copper reducing connector is designed for the safe joining of pipes with different diameters in medical gas distribution systems. Thanks to the use of 99.99% pure copper (Cu-DHP deoxidized phosphorus alloy), the component meets rigorous requirements for installations transporting oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, helium, or medical air. This material not only ensures corrosion resistance but also minimizes the risk of contamination of the flowing gas, which is critical in hospital and laboratory environments.

The product is dedicated to capillary soldering assembly – both soft and hard (with silver addition). This allows for the creation of leak-tight joints in copper pipes compliant with the PN EN 1057 standard. In medical gas installations, where safety is a priority, the ability to choose the type of solder gives installers flexibility in selecting the joint technology suited to specific operating conditions of the system.

Construction and Connection Specifics

The fitting has a simple shape (reducer) and connects a pipe with an outer diameter of 35 mm to a pipe with a diameter of 28 mm. Both sides of the component are equipped with push-fit sockets, meaning that assembly is performed by inserting the pipe into the deeper part of the fitting before soldering. This construction facilitates pipe centering and ensures uniform distribution of solder along the entire length of the capillary joint.

It is worth noting the product preparation process prior to sale – each connector is individually cleaned and degreased. This means the installer does not need to worry about additional surface preparation before soldering, which speeds up work and reduces the risk of errors resulting from the presence of grease or dust at the pipe-to-fitting interface. Components are packaged individually, protecting them from mechanical damage during transport and storage on-site.

Compliance with Standards and Material Properties

The product has been manufactured in accordance with European standards for copper fittings (PN EN 1254) and standards for bronze materials (PN EN 1982), guaranteeing its compliance with industry requirements. The copper used in production is characterized by high ductility and thermal conductivity, which promotes an efficient soldering process.

In practice, this means the possibility of joining copper pipes with outer diameters of 35 mm and 28 mm using standard capillary solders. Manufactured from high-purity Cu-DHP copper, the component is corrosion-resistant and safe for medical gases such as oxygen and nitrogen. Thanks to individual packaging as well as factory cleaning and degreasing, installation proceeds smoothly without the need for additional surface treatment before soldering. Application in vacuum systems requires similar precision of execution, which this model ensures thanks to its nipple-type construction.

Thanks to precise manufacturing and the appropriate metal alloy, this connector is suitable not only for gas systems but also for vacuum installations requiring high leak-tightness. Its versatility allows for installation in various configurations of distribution networks, provided that safety regulations applicable to medical gas work are observed.
