Pioneer FEM Series Non-Spill Hydraulic Coupler | FEM-501-8FP

Product Description

Pioneer FEM Series Non-Spill Hydraulic Coupler | FEM-501-8FP

FEM Series couplings meet or exceed ISO 16028 design and performance requirements. The flush valves eliminate spillage and air inclusion when connecting and disconnecting. Coupler and nipple bodies have a modular design with increased flexibility for end port options. FEC nipples provide a connect-under-pressure option for trapped residual pressure.

FEM Series Nipples (hydraulic) up to 5000 psi, connect with FEM Series Couplers. All FEM Series parts meet or exceed design and performance requirements of Hydraulic Tool Manufacturer's Association (HTMA - ISO 16028) standards.

Parker's FEM Series quick connect fittings are double shut off, non-spill, flat face quick couplings designed to minimize spillage and air inclusion when connecting or disconnecting and are interchangeable with other products complying with HTMA - ISO 16028. 

FEC nipples are designed to connect under pressure, in situations where fluid lines contain residual pressure caused by thermal expansion. The FEC Series connect-under-pressure rating ranges from 1500-3000 psi dependent on body size.

Features:

• Flush, non-spill valving
• Global interchangeability with other ISO 16028 compliant couplings
• Hardened nipple bodies
• Sleeve-Lok design standard
• Connect-under-pressure FEC nipple option
• Protective zinc nickel plating
• Non-spill, flat face valves minimize fluid loss when disconnecting, to reduce environmental contamination and avoid safety hazards caused by spillage.
• Flat face valves minimize the amount of air that can enter the system when connecting fluid lines, thus preventing accelerated wear of the system's components.
• Male bulkhead fitting ends for panel or plate mounting options
