Cpc Colder Products MCD1604NA Quick Disconnect Coupling

Product Description

The CPC COLDER PRODUCTS MCD1604NA is a brass, valved quick disconnect coupling body designed for hose barb panel mount installations. Built for fluid and pneumatic transfer lines, this fitting accepts a 1/4 inch inside diameter hose barb connection and includes an internal valve that closes automatically when the coupling is disconnected. The chrome-plated brass body handles pressures up to 250 psi and operates across a wide temperature range of -40 degrees F to 180 degrees F, making it suitable for demanding industrial and trade service environments. It ships as a single unit and installs into a panel cutout for secure, surface-mounted service access.

This coupling body is used in fluid transfer, cooling, and pneumatic systems where quick-connect and quick-disconnect access points are required at a panel or enclosure. The valved design prevents fluid spillage during disconnection, a critical feature in closed-loop cooling circuits, hydraulic test benches, and similar applications. The hose barb end connects directly to flexible tubing without additional fittings. Installation is performed by plumbers, industrial pipefitters, or HVAC technicians working on fluid handling or cooling loop systems requiring panel-accessible service ports.

Installation Notes

Installation of this panel mount coupling body should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician. De-pressurize and drain the system fully before removing or installing any quick disconnect fitting. The panel cutout must match the coupling body dimensions to ensure a secure, leak-free mount. Follow all applicable codes, including ASME and local plumbing codes, for pressure fitting installation and system testing after service.
