Tubing Connectors
The Aqua Flo system features reliable and convenient push-to-connect tubing connectors. Tubing is easily connected and
disconnected from these fittings as follows.
Connect:
Cut the tubing squarely with a sharp knife. Be careful not to crush the tubing. To
avoid leaks, make sure the tubing end is smooth and free of burrs and abrasions.
Lubricate the end of the tube with water or a light coat of silicone and push
the tube end firmly into the fitting. You should feel it push past the O-ring. Avoid
bending the tubing sharply away from the fitting.
Disconnect:
Hold the collar against the fitting body and pull the tube from the fitting.
In the unlikely event that the connection leaks, remove and recut the tubing.
Check the inside of the fitting for debris or O-ring damage. Reconnect.
Push-to-connect tubing connectors grip the outside diameter of the tube. To
help assure a reliable connection, it is important to use high quality tubing with a
consistent outside diameter.
