How to use the Quick-Connect fittings on the UF Module
To make a connection, the tube is simply pushed into the fitting .
Place a piece of tape 1 ⁄
2
" from end of tube to indicate how far the
tube should be inserted . The unique patented Quick-Connect lock-
ing system holds the tube firmly in place without deforming it or
restricting flow .
Cut the tube square . It is essential that the outside diameter be free of score marks
and that burrs and sharp edges be removed before inserting into fitting .
Fitting grips before it seals . Ensure tube is pushed into the tube stop .
Push the tube into the fitting, to the tube stop . The collet (gripper) has stainless
steel teeth which hold the tube firmly in position while the O-ring provides a perma-
nent leak proof seal .
Pull on the tube to check that it is secure . It is a good practice to test the system
prior to leaving site and /or before use .
To disconnect, ensure the system is depressurized before removing the tube . Push
in collet squarely against face of fitting . With the collet held in this position, the tube
can be removed . The fitting can then be reused .
