COOL-FIT 2.0 Barrel nipple with insulation PE100 SDR11

  Datasheet (PDF)

The Georg Fischer COOL-FIT 2.0 insulated barrel nipple is an engineered pre-insulated PE100 piping component designed to establish ultra-compact, direct connections between Type A electrofusion fittings in secondary cooling and chilled water distribution networks. Manufactured with an SDR11 metric PE100 core pipe rated for nominal operating pressures up to 16 bar, this specialized fitting eliminates excess pipe lengths to minimize overall installation footprints while preserving continuous thermal integrity across chilled fluid circuits. The factory-bonded core pipe is surrounded by high-efficiency, halogen-free, closed-cell GF HE foam insulation protected by an impact-resistant, black outer casing engineered to withstand tough industrial and commercial site environments. By bridging two Type A electrofusion fittings—such as couplers, elbows, or equal and reducing tees—the insulated barrel nipple facilitates immediate jointing without leaving exposed uninsulated core pipe, avoiding thermal bridging, external condensation, and subsequent corrosion. Operating effectively across media temperatures ranging from 0 degrees Celsius to +60 degrees Celsius, the assembly maintains vapor-tight barrier performance when paired with the integrated elastomeric sealing lips of adjacent Type A fittings, completely negating the need for post-insulation sprays, silicone sealants, or shrink sleeves. Its streamlined geometry simplifies pre-assembly and ensures precise alignment during electrofusion cycles, resulting in consistent, fully documented joint quality. Designed specifically for chilled water circuits, commercial HVAC, data center infrastructure, process cooling, and industrial air conditioning, the Georg Fischer COOL-FIT 2.0 barrel nipple delivers dependable hydraulic reliability, zero incrustation, and long-term energy efficiency in demanding closed-loop installations.
