How to use the Quick Connect Fittings on Your RO System
To make a connection, the tube is simply pushed into the fitting. The unique locking
system holds the tube firmly in place without deforming it or restricting flow. Use the steps
below in reference to any quick connect tube connections throughout this manual.
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
permanent 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 the collect squarely against face
of fitting. With the collet held in this
position, the tube can be removed. The
fitting can then be reused.
This reverse osmosis system is equipped with quick connect tube fittings for easy
maintenance. The quick connect fittings do not require any tools which makes it a very
simple task to connect and disconnect tubing from the RO module.
