Plastic test drain (short) KAN-therm 6095.33 for pressure tightness testing

Short plastic test drain KAN-therm 6095.33 is a compact fitting designed for pressure tightness testing, filling and draining of plumbing and heating installations. Manufactured for use in systems where a small, accessible connection point is required, this component allows installers to attach testing equipment, refill circuits or evacuate fluids during commissioning and maintenance. The design prioritizes a minimal footprint while providing a reliable interface between the piping system and external test or service tools.

Advantages

The short plastic construction reduces weight and simplifies installation in confined spaces without compromising functionality. The part is designed for secure attachment to standard piping runs, offering a stable connection point for pressure testing equipment and hoses. Its compact form minimizes protrusion into the installation area, which helps maintain clear routing of adjacent pipes and components. The material choice ensures corrosion resistance and compatibility with common plumbing and heating media.

Suitable for

• Pressure tightness testing of domestic and commercial plumbing systems
• Filling heating circuits during commissioning
• Draining or flushing piping sections for maintenance
• Temporary connection of hoses and pressure gauges

Key specifications

• Material: plastic construction suitable for plumbing and heating system use
• Design: short/compact test drain body for minimal protrusion
• Function: provides connection point for filling, draining and pressure testing
• Compatibility: intended for integration into standard piping runs and commissioning workflows
• Application environment: suitable for indoor plumbing and heating installations

How to use

Install the short test drain into the piping run at the desired access point following standard assembly and sealing procedures for the system in question. Connect the external test hose, pressure gauge or filling equipment to the drain outlet as required for the task. For pressure testing, ensure all system valves are positioned correctly and follow the test pressure and duration specified by the installation standards or system manufacturer. After testing, disconnect equipment and reseal or cap the outlet if the installation requires a permanent closure.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate seals and installation techniques compatible with the system's pipe material and operating pressure. Verify the allowable test pressure and temperature range for the installed system before applying test loads. Store the component in a dry environment prior to installation and inspect for any visible damage that could affect sealing performance.
