CONNECTING BEER CONDUIT
NOTE: The 3/8" I.D. poly line used in the beer conduit
is thin wall tubing. Barbed fittings should not be used.
The usage of barbed fittings causes thin wall tubing to
split or crack and leaks will result.
!
Caution
Only an approved cutting tool should be used to
cut polyethylene tubing. The cutting tool should
contain a razor sharp cutting blade so that the
tubing will not be crushed when cutting. A razor
blade knife or butterfly tubing cutter is sufficient
(see figures). Multiplex packs a butterfly cutter
with each Beermaster Glycol Chiller.
