APM Series

The APM series flat face couplings are state-of-the-art solutions for high residual pressure. They address residual pressure in a circuit anywhere thermal expansion of trapped fluid causes pressure to develop, and connect by hand with residual pressure, without releasing any fluid into the environment. The APM is intended to relieve pressure within itself only.

Description

Features
  • Size range: 3/8” thru 1 1/2”
  • Port options: NPT, SAE, JIC, ORFS, BSP
  • Interchanges with ISO 16028
  • Relieves pressure within itself only
  • Connect/disconnect up to 30 MPa/4350 psi residual pressure
  • Connect under high pressure, by hand
  • Flat face design eliminates leakage and contamination in the circuit
  • Male body black zinc plated for identification
Applications
  • Mobile equipment and attachment tools, where sun exposure/temperature change causes pressure due to thermal expansion of trapped fluid
  • Any application where static pressure can get locked into the system

    The BIR series ISO A interchange couplers (ISO 7241-A) are one of the most popular designs worldwide, due to their durability and use of a poppet style valve for the sealing mechanism. The BIR series features a zinc plated steel coupler and zinc plated hardened steel nipple, with nitrile seals. They are available from size 1/4 to 2 inches in size, to cover the various fields of hydraulic applications.

  • IRC Series EURO Poppet Interchange

    The IRC series interchange coupler, commonly referred to as a Nordic interchange, offers a safety sleeve to prevent accidental disconnection and a poppet valve with elastomer seal to provide maximum sealing of the couplings once disconnected. Standard poppet and pressure eliminator poppet available. Connection under residual pressure is allowed in male or female; counterpart side should be without pressure.

  • BM3 Series

    The multi-coupling plate allows the simultaneous couple and uncouple of two large diameter hydraulic lines with a single, simple movement requiring very little force. The system eliminates crossing of lines, reducing downtime and insuring couplers are fully connected. The auto-locking system insures that lines are connected safely and provides secondary retention of the connection.

  • VOF Series

    The VOF series threaded poppet couplers provide high resistance to pressure impulses, in a compact design. The VOF’s internal parts are designed to reduce turbulence and pressure drop, and its poppet valve with elastomer seal provides maximum sealing of the couplings when disconnected. A wrench flat on the bodies facilitates the fitting assembly, and the retainer is high resistance carbon steel.
