ComoPex - Heating Fittings
|
|
|
|
Interplast is one of the few companies in Europe with vertically integrated
production and the only company in Greece that manufactures all the components
of the system while offering a guarantee on the entire heating-plumbing
installation. The company’s subsidiary ELVIOM AEBE manufactures brass fittings
for the Como-pex system. ELVIOM, which has 55 years experience in brass
fittings manufacture, produces brass fittings from materials compliant with
European standards EN 12164, EN 12165, EN 12167 and EN 12168, also meeting the
specifications of DIN 50930/6 on the suitability of brass fittings for drinking
water installations. |

The Flash Valve electro-valve is manufactured in compliance to stringent criteria, following European Union specifications (implementation of EU directive 73/23) and bears the CE mark, certified by the Labor SA laboratory.
The electro-valve comprises components which are certified and meet the mechanical requirements as well as the manufacturing standards for electrically operated water valves (ELOT EN 60730-2-8).
- The rotation axis is made watertight by two EPDM quality O-rings and a packing gland type nipple.
- The slow opening and closing of the electro-valve helps prevent pressure surge.
- It has a Cruzet motor and a ratchet type integrated mechanical brake.
- Its electrical circuit is designed so it always responds to the thermostat’s commands.
- Excellent quality Teflon is used in the electro-valve, suitable for plumbing installations, which allows them to return to their original condition after various stresses, e.g. debris passing through. Its friction factor is next to zero, resulting in the smooth operation of the torsion mechanism.
- High torque 17.9 Nm, certified according to Prony Brake, which rotates the valve's ball even in difficult situations, thus preventing problems in the motor.

Manifolds are manufactured of brass profiles compliant to European standard EN 12167 and DIN 50930/6 on the suitability of brass fittings for drinking water installations. The product has low hardness so that it may be more resilient to mechanical stressing. The angle of the mechanisms compared to the vertical axis of the manifold is 180° and as a result supplies are increased and flows improved.
The manifold is used in heating installations and hot and cold-water plumbing installations.
They are manufactured in sizes 3/4’’, 1" and 1¼" with 2 to 12 ports with 24x19 or 3/4" threading.
- Large supplies.
- Battery type mechanism. As the wheel turns only the valve moves, without the axis moving up and down, and at the same time salt build up is prevented. This prevents wear and tear of the o-ring of the axis.
- The axis is made watertight by three O-rings and a packing gland.
- The base of the manifolds is made watertight by EPDM 0-rings together with a metal-to-metal watertight connection.
- Large distances between the manifold’s supply centers (50mm).
- Prevents pressure surge upon closing the water connection.
- Regulation of the circuits.
- Isolation of circuits in the event of damage.
- Risk of leakage from the connections between common 2, 3 and 4 port manifolds is eliminated.
- Red and blue markings and circuit identification markings (living room, bedroom etc.) to assist the homeowner.
- Possibility of replacing all individual components of the manifold.
- Due to special threading in the mechanism the supply requires only a few turns (4 turns) to be turned on/off.

In order to facilitate our customers, male-female manifolds are manufactured, at 1" intake size with 2 to 4 connections. They have an integrated 1’’ A/A nipple at their end to allow the connection of manifolds with each other. The nipple is made watertight on the manifold with an EPDM o-ring as well as with special watertight adhesive.
|
This connects the pipes with the male threading of the manifold or the valve. It comprises 3 components:
- Conic tail with nozzle, into which the inner surface of the pipe is fitted. It is made watertight by an elastic EPDM ring and metal-to-metal on the connection cone.
- Taper ring, which has two cones for providing a watertight connection between the brass insert and the plastic pipe.
- Nut.
|
These fittings are quick and easy to install. Manufactured in 1" and 1 1/4", male-male and male-female. When fitted, the coupling nipples are perfectly watertight with EPDM and fiber o-ring at the female threading while at the same time their independent rotation facilitates the installer with the various applications.

Manufactured in 1/1” and 1 ¼". The connection sockets are ½". It is fitted on the manifold's end. The body has a 360o degree of freedom. The terminal T enables the heating-plumbing technician to deaerate, fill or drain the installation. Made watertight by means of two elastic EPDM rings.

Fitted on the terminal T and made watertight by means of an elastic EPDM ring. By fitting a ¾ rubber hose with a tightening ring on its nozzle we can fill or drain the installation. Operates by unscrewing the nut 2 turns, thus releasing the built-in valve. It can also be placed on the boiler.
|
Used for the automatic deaeration of heating installations. Maximum working temperature is 110ïC with pressures up to 12 bar.
It is installed at the highest point of the heating installation. Before placement, the installation should be rinsed well to prevent the accumulation of particles and impurities at the watertighting section of the automatic deaerator, which could hinder its operation.
It is recommended to fit a non-return valve before the deaerator, to facilitate cleaning later without having to close down the network.
|
In order to achieve optimum balance of the heating system, we propose special inflow and return couplings with attached thermometers. The success of an underfloor heating installation is based on the best possible adjustment of feed water and return water temperature.

A segmented angled intake with secure and watertight closing. By use of the multi-position metal bracket it can be used in both plumbing and heating systems. Characterized by its ideal curve, which aids the heating-plumbing technician in fitting the plastic pipe to the brass inserts of the angled intake.
With capacity of fitting (drawer-type) of one next to the other, we cover the distances of the 38mm internal or external branch valves, while by using of a specially designed spacer between the two intakes, we cover the 50mm distance for the Ventil type heating unit valves.
The 92° angled intake bears a brass screw for supporting the brass intake which is connected to its end on a specially installed polygonal section brass nut, mounted on the bus.
Finally, in case the intake angles are mounted on the wall, Interplast has special nickel-plated coupling pipes and ABS covers, which achieve an excellent aesthetic effect.

Segmented angled intakes with secure and watertight closing.
By use of the multi-position metal bracket, these can be used in heating installations as a water connection for valves of the external and internal branch (38 mm distance), and for Ventil units (50 mm distance).
Installed on the wall where, by use of the nickel-plated coupling pipes and the white covers, an excellent aesthetic effect is achieved.

Full bore radiator valves for greater heat load transfer compared to conventional valves.
Characteristics-Advantages
- The mechanism becomes watertight with 2 teflon-coated EPDM O-rings and a packing gland to intervene in the event of leakage.
- Battery type mechanism. As the wheel turns only the valve moves, while the axis does not move up and down. This prevents wear and tear of the o-ring of the axis and the teflon.
- The base of the manifolds is made watertight by an EPDM 0-ring together with a metal-to-metal watertight connection.
- The handwheel is made of ABS for high strength and aesthetic appeal. The upper part has a cap to hide the adjustment screw that fastens the wheel to the spindle.
|
The valves of the external branch produced by the company are heavy duty and can be rotated 360º for supply from the wall or floor.
Characteristics-Advantages
- Provision of water supply or return by using the flow divider on the branch.
- The small pipe that fills the unit is in nickel-plated brass with a height of 95 cm.
- The axis of rotation is made watertight by two EPDM quality O-rings packing gland type nipple, in order to provide access in case of leakage.
- The piston is made watertight by two EPDM O-rings.
- The water distributor from the body of the valve to the branch is made of metal.
- The inner piston of the valve is suitably designed to allow better circulation of the water enabling greater heat load transfer to the units and the network works at lower pressures.
- The handwheel is made of ABS for high strength and aesthetic appeal. The upper part has a plastic cover to hide the adjustment screw that fastens the wheel to the spindle.
