6.1.1 I nstallation of the pipework
Rotate the connections for the pipework into the
required position (floor or wall connection).
When installing the pipework, please make sure that
the pipes run in parallel and are free from tension. The
position of the supply and return pipe is optional and
depends on the type of radiator. Please observe the
corresponding product descriptions.
For the connection of copper, precision steel, stainless
steel and plastic pipes as well as the composition pipe
"Copipe", the Oventrop compression fittings are to be
used (alternatively, the compression fittings of other
manufacturers – except for the composition pipe
"Copipe" – which are suitable for the connection to
male thread G ⁄

the tubular axle.
2. When installing thin walled or very soft metal pipes,
it is necessary to use reinforcing sleeves for the
additional stabilisation of the pipe (exception: soft
sealing compression fittings).
3. Reinforcing sleeves cannot be used for pipes with
welded seams. The recommendations of the pipe
manufacturer must be observed in this case.
Check if the function of the compression fitting is
guaranteed.
NOTICE
After installation of the pipework, the pivoting
connections have to be protected against twisting
by tightening the lateral screw (max. 10 Nm) with
the help of a 5 mm Allen key (see illustr. 6).
