    Non-Spill

    Avoid spillage and air inclusion

    Non-spill or “dripless” connectors help avoid fluid spillage when connector halves are disconnected, and air inclusion during connection and disconnection. These capabilities are critical in many applications across multiple industries. Non-spill connectors can help protect equipment, products, employees and the environment.

    Non-Spill Application Examples

    • Icon Medical - Surgical: Non-spill shutoff valves in QDs automatically stop flow, reducing spills or pressure loss during disconnection and air inclusion upon connection.
    • Icon Liquid Cooling of Electronics: In high-performance computing and data centers, non-spill QDs facilitate liquid cooling while protecting expensive electronics from fluid exposure.
    • Icon Print & Ink Management: Non-spill connectors help minimize fumes, drips and air bubbles, contributing to cleaner processes and end-products in both ink printing and 3D printing (additive manufacturing).

    CPC’s Non-Spill Performance

    Spillage: the volume of liquid between the valve faces that is released every time the coupler,
    or connector, is disconnected

    Type of connector Size/Flow area Amount of spillage per connection cycle
    Traditional valved 3/8" ~ 1-2 ml
    CPC non-spill 3/8" ~ .01-.15 ml

     

    Inclusion: the volume of air that enters a system each time a coupler is connected

    Type of connector Size/Flow area Amount of spillage per connection cycle
    Traditional valved 3/8" ~ 2 ml
    CPC non-spill 3/8" ~ .04 ml

    More Benefits from CPC Connectors

    Innovative quick connect and disconnect couplings can improve the functionality of your equipment and increase the efficiency of your operations. Other benefits include:

    • Ergonomic designs that make it easy to connect and disconnect couplings quickly, even when wearing gloves.
    • Durability thanks to quality construction and robust materials, including unique engineered polymers. CPC connectors withstand harsh working conditions and repeated connection cycles.
