Hydraulic couplings
Hydraulic couplings that can be shut off on both sides - flexibility for pressure systems
Hydraulic couplings that can be shut off on both sides are essential connecting elements in pressurized systems. They enable the realization of complex pressure systems, especially in the manufacturing industry.
Variety of hydraulic couplings for different applications
Hydraulic couplings have two basic uses: They either connect hoses together or provide the connection between a hose and a fixed connection. The available designs include screw couplings, plug-in couplings, pipe couplings, breakaway couplings and multi-couplings. These high-quality components are designed for high pressures and ensure quick and easy connection and disconnection. Hydraulic systems often operate under extreme conditions, which is why the safety and reliability of these couplings are crucial. Typical areas of application are the automotive industry and food technology.
The special feature: Efficient shut-off function
Hydraulic couplings that can be shut off on both sides keep the system pressure constant after the connection is disconnected. The medium is stopped in the plug nipple and in the coupling so that it remains in the system and pressure drops are avoided. This is particularly important as unwanted pressure drops are undesirable in many applications. These couplings also ensure maximum hydraulic power transmission. With the patented pressure eliminator, you can even decouple the connection when dynamic pressure is built up.
High-quality materials for a long service life
In our online store, you will find an extensive selection of hydraulic couplings that differ in terms of the materials used. Nickel-plated brass is particularly corrosion-resistant and guarantees a long service life. This copper alloy contains at least 50 percent copper and up to 40 percent zinc, which makes it harder than pure copper. The nickel plating further increases the corrosion resistance. Alternatively, we offer hydraulic couplings made of stainless steel, a robust and durable material that is highly pure and resistant to moisture and acids.
Important parameters for the selection
When selecting hydraulic couplings that can be shut off on both sides, you should pay attention to the following characteristic values:
- Maximum operating pressure: Each clutch type is designed for a specific maximum operating pressure, which is specified in bar. High-performance components are essential for the safety and functionality of the system.
- Operating temperatures: Suitability for specific operating temperatures is also crucial. Usual values are between -30 and 100 degrees Celsius.
- Nominal width: The nominal width of the hydraulic coupling determines which coupling is selected to match the existing connections, usually specified in inches.
