Inflammable media
Viega system solutions for inflammable media
When it comes to fuels, safety is essential. Not just an option.
Maximum security in the entire pipeline network
Challenges in industrial applications
Fuels, oil, fuel gases and other inflammable media demand not only the utmost care when it comes to handling, but also maximum safety throughout the entire pipeline network. Metal Viega piping systems ensure exactly that. From extensively tested sealing elements in individual connectors to suitable material quality and reliably sealing press connecting technology, Viega provides every solution for handling inflammable media.

Viega press systems: up to 80% faster
Superior technology pro time savings and anti production downtimes
In industrial systems engineering, safe, fast and easy-to-use processes are favourable to ensure that production can be ramped up as quickly as possible. However, many pipelines are still installed using conventional connecting techniques, such as welding. And this is still the case despite the fact that cold-press technology from Viega offers numerous advantages – it is cleaner, more efficient and safer in every respect. It also minimises the challenges posed by shortages of skilled workers and production downtimes.
Solutions for inflammable media
Highest material quality and reliable press technology
Whether in the refinery or at the gas station: safety is the top priority when dealing with fuels. Viega press connectors make safe transport for inflammable media possible.
Planning and operational safety for the environment and profit margins
Refinery and petrol station operators expect a leakproof and reliable piping system that is capable of transporting and distributing inflammable media with the utmost safety, so that any environmental pollution is effectively avoided. Metal press connector and piping systems from Viega are certified for use with heating oil and diesel fuels as well as fuel gases and they meet the above requirements. The systems offer both quick installation and high levels of operational safety. Complete leak tightness to natural and liquid gas increases reliability and reduces potential maintenance costs.
Viega Megapress G: safety without welding
With numerous components suitable for industrial use, Megapress G, in pipe dimensions from ½ to 2 inches, covers a broad range of installation options. The system is approved for heating oil and diesel fuels (DIBt-approved) as well as natural and liquid gases according to DVGW Worksheet G 260, and for installations according to DVGW-TRGI 2018 and DVFG TRF 2012. Viega Megapress G has also been tested for HTR (higher thermal resistance) and approved up to a maximum operating pressure of 0.5 MPa (MOP 5). This is the case regardless of whether pipes of threaded or boiler pipe quality are used for installation or whether the pipe is seamless, welded, black or galvanised. Pipes meeting EN 10255, EN 10220/10216-1 and EN 10220/10217-1 can be pressed using Megapress G without the need for high-risk welding work.
Also first choice: Viega Sanpress Inox G and Profipress G
The two Viega press connector systems Sanpress Inox G and Profipress G are also ideally suited for use with inflammable media. Like the Sanpress Inox G piping system, in combination with copper pipes pursuant to EN 1057, the Profipress G piping system also has DIBt approval for heating oil and diesel fuels. This means that both systems are ideal for transporting inflammable media.
