Easy attachment and detachment with handle operation, large diameter coupling [Fluid Connector]

basic information

Regarding fluid connectors (couplings) used in various piping systems, as the diameter increases, it typically requires significant force to open the valve during coupling connections with standard products, making the task itself not easy. In this regard, Stäubli's large-diameter non-spill couplings [TCH], [TCB], and [TTX] allow for a significant reduction in the burden of the connection work by converting the pushing action into a rotational direction instead of requiring a push during coupling connections. Additionally, due to the non-spill design, there is almost no liquid leakage or air entrapment during attachment and detachment, which helps protect the working environment and the safety of the operator. When a large flow of fluid is passed through the piping, the pressure loss in the piping increases significantly. This is especially true for couplings with complex internal structures. In this regard, Stäubli's large-diameter ball valve block couplings [TKU], [TKM], and [TDU] utilize a ball valve block, simplifying the flow path structure and thereby minimizing the increase in pressure loss. Furthermore, the opening and closing of the valve are not affected by pressure, allowing for the attachment and detachment of the coupling even if there is residual pressure in the circuit.
