Viega 95840 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Viega MegaPress 95840 transition coupling actually connect?
The Viega 95840 is a 1-1/4 inch transition coupling that joins IPS-sized pipe on one end to CTS-sized pipe on the other (P1 IPS x P2 CTS). Both ends are 1-1/4 inch nominal. It is the fitting you use where a steel/iron-size line has to pick up copper tube size, so you are not stacking adapters to bridge the two sizing systems.
2) Does the Viega 95840 need to be pressed with a tool, or can it be threaded on?
It is a press fitting, not threaded. Both ends are pressed with a MegaPress jaw or ring on a press tool, so you need the correct 1-1/4 inch MegaPress tooling on hand. There is no thread, no solder, and no flame involved, which is why it gets used on occupied buildings where hot work permits are a problem.
3) Is the Viega 95840 coupling stainless or carbon steel, and does that matter for my system?
It is 304 stainless steel, body and all. That matters on two counts: a stainless press fitting will not red-rust the way a carbon steel MegaPress body can in a damp mechanical room, and it keeps you out of galvanic trouble that a plain carbon body can run into. If your spec calls for carbon steel MegaPress, this stainless version is not the same catalog item.
4) What is Smart Connect on this Viega coupling and how do I use it on the job?
Smart Connect is the feature built into the 95840 that lets an unpressed joint leak under test pressure instead of holding. You pressurize the system, walk the line, and anything weeping is a connection you missed. On a long run of 1-1/4 inch press joints that is how you find the one the crew skipped before the ceiling closes.
