Selecting the Correct Size
Select the PPS1 BO cap according to the outside diameter of the PPS pipe being terminated. The cap size should match the PPS pipe size directly.
Available pipe sizes are 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2", 2", 2-1/2", 3", and 4".
Installation Considerations
- Confirm the PPS pipe outside diameter before ordering.
- Select a cap that matches the pipe size being terminated.
- Prepare the pipe end according to PPS system installation requirements.
- Keep the pipe end and fitting interior clean before assembly.
- Inspect the pipe and fitting for damage before installation.
- Support the piping appropriately near the termination point.
- Do not exceed the published maximum operating pressure of 232 PSI.
- Maintain the system within the published -4°F to 176°F operating temperature range.
- Test the completed piping network before normal operation.
- Install according to PPS system requirements.
