Aquatherm 1020032910 Flange Adapter 1 Inch Socket Weld

Product Description

The AQUATHERM 1020032910 is a 1-inch flange adapter with gasket, manufactured from Fusiolen PP-R (polypropylene random copolymer) for use in hydronic and mechanical piping systems. The adapter uses a socket weld connection method, allowing it to be heat-fused directly to compatible PP-R pipe. With an outside diameter of 2.68 inches and a body length of 1.34 inches, it transitions a PP-R pipe run to a standard flanged connection point. Wall thickness is 0.39 inches. The socket end measures 1.26 by 1.61 inches. This fitting is manufactured to ASTM F2389 and carries DIN 16962 and DIN EN ISO 15874 certifications, making it suitable for regulated commercial and industrial plumbing and hydronic applications.

This flange adapter is used in green-pipe PP-R piping systems where a transition to a flanged valve, pump, heat exchanger, or equipment connection is required. It is commonly installed in commercial mechanical rooms, hydronic heating and cooling distribution systems, and industrial process piping. The green finish identifies it as part of the AQUATHERM Green line, which is designed for heating and cooling water service. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically perform installations involving this fitting on new construction or retrofit mechanical systems.

Key Features

• Fusiolen PP-R material conforms to ASTM F2389 for pressure-rated thermoplastic piping systems
• Socket weld connection allows heat-fusion jointing for a leak-free, monolithic connection
• Includes gasket for a complete flanged assembly at point of installation
• Meets DIN 16962 and DIN EN ISO 15874 international standards for PP-R fittings
• Green color coding identifies compatibility with the AQUATHERM Green piping system
• 1-inch nominal size with 1.26 by 1.61 inch socket end for precise fit to matching pipe OD

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style socket-weld flange adapter for 1-inch nominal AQUATHERM Green PP-R pipe systems conforming to ASTM F2389.

Installation Notes

Installation of PP-R socket weld fittings requires a calibrated polyfusion heat tool appropriate for the pipe diameter; cuts must be clean and square before fusion. Shut down and depressurize the piping system fully before removing any existing components or making new connections. Allow proper cooling time after fusion before pressurizing the joint. This fitting should be installed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter familiar with thermoplastic pressure piping per applicable IPC and local mechanical codes.
