Abstract

A sanitary insertion unit has a sealing ring with a sleeve-shaped extension, the free end region of which extension has a head which protrudes circumferentially and, when the extension is inserted into an associated line section, can be deformed at least in regions such that the head of the extension is placed onto the inner circumferential wall of the line section. A sanitary insertion unit also has/is a flow regulator, the outer circumference of the housing of which bears a clamping edge region for sealing and clamping the flow regulator between two interconnected line sections, the flow regulator bears a sleeve-shaped extension, the circumferentially protruding head of which, produced from elastic material, can be deformed, when the extension is inserted into a line section, such that the head is placed onto the inner circumferential wall of the line section.
