How To Use the Quick Connect Fittings on the RO Module
To make a connection, the tube is simply pushed into the tting. The unique patented John Guest®
locking system holds the tube rmly in place without deforming it or restricting ow.
It is essential that the outside diameter be free of score
marks and that burrs and sharp edges be removed before
inserting into tting.
Fitting grips before it seals. Ensure tube is pushed into
the tube stop.
Push the tube into the tting, to the tube stop. The collet
(gripper) has stainless steel teeth which hold the tube
rmly 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 collect squarely against face
of tting. With the collet held in this position, the tube can
be removed. The tting can then be reused.
