S100x8 Female to 2'' BSP Female Fitting

S100x8 Female to 2'' BSP Female Fitting CPP (Reference: 100159) represents the reference technical solution for adapting 1000-liter IBC containers to equipment fitted with 2-inch BSP gas threads. Manufactured by CPP, a recognized specialist in industrial fittings, this adapter guarantees perfect compatibility between S100x8 and BSP standards, two essential norms in liquid storage and transfer installations.

Applications and Fields of Use

This female/female fitting finds its place in numerous professional and domestic configurations. Farmers use it to connect their irrigation systems to water storage tanks, while industrial users adopt it for their compatible chemical product circuits. In the construction sector, it facilitates the connection of concrete tanks or cooling systems.

Private individuals who own rainwater collection tanks appreciate its easy installation for connecting submersible pumps, shut-off valves, or filtration systems. Its female/female design allows for reliable junctions between different elements without requiring specialized tools.

Technical Characteristics and Materials

Glass fiber reinforced polypropylene constitutes the material of choice for this adapter, offering exceptional resistance to mechanical and chemical stresses. This composition gives the fitting remarkable performance against temperature variations, UV rays, and most commonly stored chemicals.

With a maximum operating pressure of 8 bar, this fitting meets the requirements of moderate pressure installations. Its weight of 120 grams demonstrates its robustness while maintaining easy handling. The S100x8 and 2'' BSP threads are precision machined to guarantee leak-tight assembly from the first installation.

Installation and Commissioning

Installation of this female/female fitting is carried out by manual screwing, without requiring special tools. Before installation, check the condition of the threads and clean them if necessary. Using an appropriate sealing gasket (Teflon or sealing paste) improves long-term performance.

Assembly is performed by gently screwing until contact, then tightening an additional quarter turn to ensure sealing. Avoid excessive tightening which could damage the polypropylene threads. For maintenance, periodic rinsing with clean water is sufficient to maintain sealing performance.

Expert Advice and Product Synergies

To optimize your installation, combine this fitting with 2'' BSP female valves available in our Multitanks range. This combination allows precise flow control while maintaining system tightness. Professionals also recommend adding a pressure gauge to monitor operating pressure.

Beware of material mixing: avoid direct contact with metal parts that could create galvanic corrosion. When using with chemicals, always verify polypropylene compatibility with the transported fluid. For outdoor installations, provide frost protection in winter to preserve fitting integrity.
