Type KA-M

Quick connector system type KA-M

For pressure- and vacuum tests on divers external diameters of components

Use

The innomatec connec ® KA-M type quick connector system seals tubes, connection pieces, hoses and all types of cylindrical bodies and connects them to the desired control system.. Oval, rough and cast surfaces with large sealing surface tolerance are sealed radially.

Function and operation

The innomatec connec ® KA-M type quick connector system can be attached/presented to the test piece manually or with an automatic tool.

The quick connector is pneumatically operated with control air. The seal is completed with a flexible rubber seal. The system is filled or sealed via the test connection. After testing has been completed the control connection is vented, the seal de-pressurised and the connection can be removed/taken away. Depending on the diameter, working pressure or condition of the surface (oily etc.) the connection needs to be fitted with a slide barrier

Sealed system

The innomatec connec ® quick connector system has excellent sealing properties ('helium-tight'). The rubber seal product life is designed to be suitable for series production. Rubber seals are very easy to change without tools.

Special designs

There are a number of special designs of the connection for specific applications with stroke limitation, sliding barriers, support hulls or special seals for specific environmental conditions. The dimensions of the connection can be adapted to the task for specific cases. Also for individual pieces. We look forward to your enquiry. Please use our checklist to do this.

Standard dimensions, type KA-M

The maximum test pressure can be found in column P2. This is only valid for ideal conditions (sealing surface clean, dry and processed). For higher test pressures or damp/oily surfaces, the quick connector must be secured against slipping.
