Quick Connect Couplings

We can fully integrate ancillary devices within the coupling including items such as temperature measurement devices, detection devices, electrical contacts and microprocessors. This can provide many benefits, particularly when it is a safety critical device.

By incorporating either mechanical or software interlocking safety measures, the risk of accidental disconnection is eliminated. The inclusion of sensors ensure that the coupling will only operate once the sensors have reported that it has been connected correctly. Temperature measuring devices can also be useful for monitoring the temperature of the coupling or the fluids. Another useful benefit is the transfer of data through the coupling by the integration electrical contacts.

We are highly experienced in the design of push fit couplings for high pressure, low temperature applications, for use with different gases and liquids such as Liquid Nitrogen, Carbon Dioxide and Nitrous Oxide. We incorporate sealing solutions within the coupling using standard seals or where necessary bespoke solutions.

Safety is of paramount importance, especially when dealing with high pressures and low temperatures. We perform detailed DFMEAs to identify potential safety issues in the early stages of development and where necessary implement measures to eliminate the risk, followed up with a detailed verification and validation plan.
