Cpc Colder Products PLCD1600412NA Panel Mount Hose Barb Coupling

Product Description

The CPC COLDER PRODUCTS PLCD1600412NA is a panel mount hose barb female socket coupling designed for use in fluid handling systems where a secure, leak-resistant connection at a panel or bulkhead is required. Built from polypropylene with an EPDM o-ring, this coupling handles a maximum working pressure of 120 psi and operates across a temperature range of 32 to 160 degrees F. The 1/4 inch nominal flow size and 1/4 inch tube inside diameter make it well-suited for low-to-medium flow applications in industrial, laboratory, and equipment cooling circuits. It includes an integrated shutoff valve to stop flow automatically when disconnected, reducing fluid spillage during service.

This coupling is used in panel or bulkhead-mounted fluid circuit applications where a female socket accepts a mating male insert. Typical installations include industrial cooling equipment, medical devices, laboratory instruments, and fluid transfer systems requiring a reliable disconnect point at an enclosure wall or mounting panel. The female socket configuration accepts a corresponding male insert for quick-connect and disconnect operations. Its polypropylene construction makes it compatible with a range of water-based fluids and mild chemical solutions.

Key Features

• Panel mount design allows installation through a bulkhead or enclosure wall for clean, secure fluid routing
• Integrated shutoff valve closes automatically on disconnect to minimize fluid spillage
• Polypropylene body offers resistance to moisture, corrosion, and many mild chemicals
• EPDM o-ring provides reliable sealing across the rated temperature range
• Rated to 120 psi maximum working pressure for use in pressurized fluid circuits
• 1/4 inch nominal flow size with 1/4 inch inside diameter hose barb for standard tubing connections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style panel mount female socket coupling for fluid handling systems requiring a 1/4 inch nominal flow quick-disconnect fitting at a panel or bulkhead mount point.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by fluid system technicians or equipment maintenance personnel. Depressurize and drain the fluid circuit completely before removing or installing any coupling. Ensure the panel cutout dimensions match the fitting body requirements before mounting. Hand-tighten and verify the o-ring is properly seated to prevent leaks under pressure.
