Viega 90545 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the P x FTG connection on the Viega MegaPress 90545 elbow mean for how it installs?
P x FTG means one end is a press socket that receives 2-1/2 inch pipe, and the other end is fitting-size (street) so it slips directly into the press socket of another fitting. That is what makes it a street elbow: you can change direction right at a fitting without adding a short nipple between them. Both halves are 2-1/2 inch.
2) Is the Viega 90545 MegaPress elbow stainless or carbon steel, and what pipe is it meant to join?
The 90545 is built from 316 stainless steel. MegaPress fittings are made for black iron / carbon steel pipe, and the 316 body is the corrosion-resistant option for wetter or more aggressive service than plain carbon steel MegaPress. It is made in Germany.
3) What is Smart Connect on this Viega press elbow and do I still have to press the joint?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-joint feature: an unpressed connection leaks deliberately during pressure testing so you can find it before the system is charged. It is a verification aid, not a substitute for pressing. Every socket on the 90545 still has to be pressed with the correct 2-1/2 inch tooling.
4) Can I press a 316 stainless MegaPress fitting onto carbon steel pipe without a galvanic problem?
MegaPress stainless fittings are designed for carbon steel pipe systems, and the 90545 is a 316 stainless body. Where dissimilar-metal contact is a concern in your service, that is a system design decision for the engineer of record, not a property of the fitting. The sealing element isolates the joint face itself.
