Inspecting The Pressed Connection

1. Inspect the pressed fitting. If the fitting is supplied with

a control ring and/or a control label by the fitting

man ufacturer, remove it. Control rings and label are

supplied by the manufacturer to indicate that the fitting

has not yet been pressed.

Look for the following:

• Excessive misalignment of the tubes. Note that a

slight amount of misalignment at the pressed con-

nection is considered normal.

• Tubes that are not fully inserted into the fitting –

dou ble check the insertion marks made on the

tube to see that they are still aligned with the end of

the fitting.

• Incorrect jaw or ring alignment with the fitting con-

tour, distorted or deformed fitting.

• Any other issues per the fitting manufacturer.

If any of these problems are found, then removal of

the fitting is required and a new fitting and tube will

need to be prepared and pressed in its place.

2. Test system in accordance with normal practice and

local codes.
