Description

PKG reducing five-way tube fittings

PKG fittings provide two inline tube connections and three smaller branch connections in one five-way body. Select the main-line and branch tube diameters as a pair. Individual release collars serve each tube entry, and two mounting holes are provided in the body.

Metric model selection

The first number in the model identifies the main-line tube outside diameter D1; the second identifies the branch tube outside diameter D2. Diameters are in millimetres.

Tube routing and mounting

The inline connections run through the body while the three branch entries sit along one side. Leave room to operate the release collars and route each tube without obstructing the mounting holes. Check the selected fitting's operating limits for the circuit.
