Operating Instructions:
CONNECTING ACTION:
1. Insert connector into test piece. Make sure test piece is inserted to the required
minimum insertion length. This will assure proper location relative to the seals.
2. Rotate lever to the 90 degree position for grip and seal action. After connecting,
always tug on the connector to assure proper engagement and gripping of the collet
before introduction of pressurized test media.
Note: Lever is designed to rotate down when connector test port is on top.
3. Introduce test media through test port.
DISCONNECTING ACTION:
1. Vent test media pressure.
2. Rotate lever to in-line position.
3. Remove connector.
Note: Connector should be pulled straight back. If connector catches, push forward
and pull back. Do not attempt to force out a connector that is catching. This will
cause it to jam in the test piece port.
Dimensional Information:
All DIMENSIONS APPLY TO BOTH SIZES EXCEPT “L” (Minimum insertion length of test
piece for standard application).

Collet and Seal Installation for JNL Connector:
ASSEMBLY OF COLLET AND SEAL SET:
1. Set connector shaft (A) on table so that the threaded end is pointed upward. Place
main seal (B) onto shaft as shown.
2. Install sleeve ramp (C) onto shaft so that smooth flat area is against main seal.
3. Place small C-Ring (D) into groove shown. Most easily installed from side. Sleeve
ramp may need to be squeezed close to flat end of shaft to expose c-ring groove.
4. Assemble the collet segments (F) and retaining o-ring(s) (E) & (G). Arrange the four
pieces of collet (F) into a circle with the raised area facing upward. Place the
retaining o-ring(s) into the groove(s) on the raised area.
5. Install complete collet and retaining o-ring assembly onto shaft (A) as shown in
diagram. Note that the I.D. of the collet assembly is tapered. Larger end of this
tapered I.D. goes on the shaft (A) first.
6. Place washer (H) on shaft (A).
7. Place shaft o-ring (I) onto shaft (A) and into groove immediately in front of thread.
8. The shaft assembly is now ready to attach to the connector body. Apply a drop of
Loctite® to the threads to avoid loosening during use.
9. Holding body (J) with shaft hole pointed downward, insert threaded end of shaft (A)
into hole in body (J). A hex hole at front of shaft is provided to tighten shaft into body
until snug. Collet set should be threaded in so that edge of collet (F) overlaps edge
of sleeve ramp (C) by approximately .02”.
10. Rotate the lever to actuate connector. Visually verify that the connector is gripping
and sealing action is correct before introduction of pressurized test media.
CAUTION: Keep fingers away from collet assembly. Pinching can occur.
