Pps 691514184739 Copper Press Reducing Coupling

Product Description

The PPS 691514184739 is a copper press reducing coupling designed to transition pipe from a 1-1/2 inch nominal size down to a 3/4 inch nominal size without soldering or open flame. The press-style end connection creates a secure, leak-resistant joint using a compatible pressing tool, making installation faster and safer compared to traditional sweat fittings. Rated to 200 psi and a temperature range of 0 to 250 degrees F, this fitting handles the demands of a broad range of piping systems. It is suited for licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on commercial and residential projects.

This reducing coupling is approved for use across multiple applications including potable water, hydronic heating, chilled water, compressed air, non-medical gases, fire sprinkler systems, and low pressure steam. The press connection end style eliminates the need for flux, solder, or a torch, which reduces jobsite risk and speeds up rough-in and retrofit work. It is a practical choice wherever a pipe size reduction is required within a copper press system.

Key Features

• Press end style — no solder, flux, or torch required
• 200 psi pressure rating for demanding system applications
• Temperature range of 0 to 250 degrees F
• Copper construction for corrosion resistance and long service life
• Reducing coupling configuration transitions 1-1/2 inch to 3/4 inch nominal pipe
• Approved for potable water, hydronic heating, chilled water, compressed air, non-medical gases, fire sprinkler, and low pressure steam

Compatibility

Designed for use in copper press piping systems requiring a 1-1/2 x 3/4 inch nominal reducing coupling with a press end connection style.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASME B16.22 standards. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before cutting into any existing piping. A manufacturer-approved pressing tool with the correct jaw size for each end must be used to achieve a proper press joint. Verify the pipe ends are clean, deburred, and fully inserted to the fitting stop before pressing.
