External Connectors seal conventional and non-standard surfaces.
Connecting to any tube or pipe, smooth or threaded FE External Connectors serve a wide range of applications, from leak testing systems to medical components to robotics. Compressed air activates the elastomeric seals for a full-flow test to 500 psi with air, gas, or liquid. Uniform seal movement yields a virtually leak-proof connection, even over threaded, rough, or oily surfaces. Testing, filling, or flushing of the test piece is accomplished by introducing media through the FasTest connector.
Applications include:
- Bubble, pressure decay, and mass spectrometer testing
- Leak testing systems
- Gauges, valves, transducers
- Pressure vessels
- Pick-and-place parts handling
- Air conditioning components
- Vacuum systems
- Plastic bottles
- Robotics
- Medical components
- Heat exchangers
- Valves, pumps, filters, tanks
- Testing of manufactured products that hold a fluid or work under pressure or vacuum.
