VIEGA Profipress tee 15x12x15 mm copper with SC‑Contur for press fittings

VIEGA Profipress tee 15x12x15 mm copper with SC‑Contur for press fittings is a copper press-fitting tee designed to create a secure branch in press-jointed plumbing and heating installations. The fitting joins two 15 mm and one 12 mm copper pipes using Profipress press technology and features SC‑Contur leak detection to help identify unpressed connections during pressure testing. It is suitable for potable water, heating circuits and service lines where solder-free, rapid assembly is preferred.

Advantages

The tee provides a reliable, solder-free connection that reduces installation time and eliminates the need for open flame. SC‑Contur safety ensures that unpressed fittings can be detected during pressure tests, improving installation quality control. Made of copper, the fitting offers corrosion resistance and long-term durability in domestic and commercial plumbing systems, and compatibility with standard copper pipes makes it suitable for retrofits and new installations.

Suitable for

• Potable water distribution in residential and commercial buildings
• Heating system branching and radiator connections
• Service lines and secondary circuits requiring a 15x12x15 mm branch
• Situations where solder-free, press-joined connections are required

Key specifications

• Material: copper
• Connection type: press fitting (Profipress technology)
• Dimensions: 15 x 12 x 15 mm (pipe diameters)
• Safety feature: SC‑Contur leak-detection contour
• Application: potable water, heating and service lines

How to use

Select matching copper pipes and ensure pipe ends are clean, deburred and free of scale. Insert pipes fully into the tee until the stop is reached and verify correct alignment. Use the appropriate Profipress pressing tool and jaw for copper fittings, and perform the press operation according to the tool manufacturer's instructions to achieve a complete press around the fitting. After pressing, conduct a pressure test to confirm system integrity and to verify that no SC‑Contur indication of an unpressed joint is present.

Usage recommendations

Use only authorized press tools and jaws specified for Profipress copper fittings. Avoid mixing with incompatible materials and follow local plumbing codes and standards for potable water and heating installations. Perform pressure testing after installation to ensure SC‑Contur safety has been achieved and maintain accessible shut-off valves for serviceability.
