The standard tubing connections on the water coolers are EZ connect fittings. Use
the tubing and follow the instructions below in fig. 7 to make the connections. If you
cut the tubing, make sure it is a square cut, fits squarely in the fitting and seals
properly.
Cut the tube square
Cut the tube square. It is essential that the outside diameter is free of score marks and that burrs and
sharp edges be removed before inserting into fitting. For soft thin walled plastic tubing we
recommend the use of a tube insert.
Insert tube
Fitting grips before it seals. Ensure tube is pushed into the tube stop.
Push up to tube stop
Push the tube into the fitting, to the tube stop. The collet (gripper) has stain-less steel teeth which
hold the tube firmly in position while the "O" ring pro-vides a permanent leak proof seal
Pull to check secure
Pull on the tube to check it is secure. It is good practice to test the system prior to leaving site and/or
before use.
Disconnect
To disconnect ensure the system is depressurized before removing fitting. Push in collet squarely
against face of fitting. With the collect held in this position, the tube can be removed.
