12. EZD OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: EZD Clip (4100153) must be installed on the bag before
operating EZD valve or bag can be damaged
EZD stands for Easy Drain meaning a drain that allows easy transfer of fluid to and from the
container. The typical applications include draining a container or filling a container with liquid.
EZD operation involves relative movement of
EZD Male port
with respect to
EZD Universal
Fitment
. The Universal Female fitment always remains stationary and it is only the relative
vertical movement of EZD Male port that allows fluid transfer through the port. The EZD is
closed to fluid transfer when the top surface of the EZD male port is flush with the top surface of
EZD universal fitment. When the EZD male port is pushed into the EZD universal fitment, it is
open for fluid transfer. The
Collar
is used to lock the EZD valve in the preferred position (either
open or closed) by rolling it over the fingers of the EZD universal fitment. When the collar is over
the EZD universal fitment fingers, it prevents movement of the EZD valve and when it is rolled
away from the finger region of the universal fitment, it allows the EZD valve to move from a
closed to open or open to closed position.
A necessary step to use EZD is that, an EZD CLIP be installed on the EZD universal
fitment prior to start using it. The EZD CLIP should be mounted on universal fitment as
shown in the image below.
