European Pressure Equipment Directive

Couplings with nominal diameters up to and including 25 mm
are designed and manufactured under Article 4.3 of the Eu
ropean Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU. Couplings
with nominal diameters greater than 25 mm are designed and
manufactured in accordance with stipulations of Module A of the
European Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU. They should
not be used to convey unstable gases.
Group 1 = Hazardous media / Group 2 = Other media
