The Megapress press-in branch connector is suitable for thick-walled steel pipes. The press-in branch connector generates a threaded connection in pipelines. It is particularly suitable for confined spaces, e.g. manifold installations for sensors, thermometers, or drains. The press-in branch connector is not suitable for use in drinking water installations. For this reason, press-in branch connectors are labelled with a black symbol “Not drinking water”. It is not permitted to use the press-in branch connector for fuel gases pursuant to DVGW Worksheet G 260 or in connection with Prestabo system components.
