4 THE EASY TO USE PUSHFIT SYSTEM FOR COMPRESSED AIR The John Guest range of pushfit fittings and pipe provide the ideal connection from compressor receiver to air line service components through to complete ring main and take off points. A compressed air system can be installed quickly and easily, compared with other installation methods, time savings of at least 50% are easily achievable. No need to prepare threaded pipe or solvent, all the connections can be made with a simple pushfit action. The system is then immediately ready for use. Complex systems can be assembled much more rapidly than with traditional methods and because fittings are easy to disconnect, systems can be altered or extended with much reduced production down time. The fittings are produced in either a tough engineering plastics material or in brass in sizes 12mm to 28mm. They are intended or use with John Guest nylon pipe but can also be used with copper or aluminium pipe. EASY TO MAKE A CONNECTION O Ring Pipe Stop Stainless Steel Teeth The John Guest pushfit fitting has a collet (gripper) with stainless steel teeth which hold the pipe firmly in position and an O ring to provide a permanent leak proof seal. Collet THREE EASY STEPS Fittings and pipe should be kept clean and undamaged before use. 28MM FITTINGS Pipe Cut the pipe square. We recommend the use of the JG Pipe Cutter for rigid nylon pipe and Aluminium Pipe Cutters for aluminium pipe. DO NOT use a hacksaw. To avoid damage to the O ring remove burrs and sharp edges. Push up to pipe stop. Pull to check secure. Test the system before use. To disconnect, ensure the system is depressurised. Push the collet towards the fitting and remove the pipe. The fitting can be reused. 7 7 Collet Screw Cap Body 28mm fittings also have a collet with stainless steel teeth and an O ring. After inserting the pipe, a screw cap is turned approx 1/4 turn. This locks the collet in place and reduces lateral and sideways movement of the pipe. To disconnect, turn the screw cap 1/4 turn, push in the collet and remove the pipe. The fitting and pipe can be reused. Nylon, Copper & Aluminium Pipe Whilst we recommend the use of John Guest Rigid Nylon Pipe, John Guest Fittings can also be used with copper or aluminium pipe. 3

5 UNIQUE FEATURES STEM ELBOW Designed to simplify pipe connections in restricted spaces, the Stem Elbow gives an instant swivel fitting so a pipe can be orientated in any direction. WATER TRAP TEE CONVERTOR The Water Trap Tee Convertor is a simple convenient way of converting a standard John Guest 28mm Tee to a Water Trap Tee. This will stop condensing water entering the vertical take off spur. The air supply needs to be installed with the correct fall and water drain points regularly vented. Can be used with an elbow to make U turn connection. Please note a collet cover cannot be used on a Speedfit end assembled with the stem of a 22mm Stem Elbow. Can be used with a Tee. To Assemble Use either John Guest 28mm Nylon Pipe or 28mm copper pipe. The pipe to be cut square and be free of burrs. Press the shorter spigot into the pipe. The fit on copper pipe will be loose, this will not affect the function. Push the pipe and convertor up to the pipe stop of the centre leg of the tee. Turn the screw cap approx 1/4 turn to lock the pipe in position. WATER TRAP TEE The new Water Trap Tee from John Guest solves the ongoing problem of moisture in acompressed air system and provides the easy alternative to the need to install Swan Necks WET AIR WATER TRAPPED DRY AIR END STOP The End Stop can be used to provide a permanent connection or a temporary shut off. Because it is easy to disconnect the fitting from the pipe, the End Stop can be put in place to be removed at a later date to allow a system to be extended or modified. The ingenious inside arrangement of the fitting allows air to flow, with minimum head loss, from the main to takeoff point without allowing water to follow. The moisture is retained in the line to be drawn off at some suitable location. Installation It is of vital importance for the correct function of the Water Trap Tee that the air distribution system be nearly horizontal and that the outlet port be facing downwards. johnguest.com 4

8 PNEUMATICS FITTINGS Super Speedfit Pushin fittings have been specially designed for miniature pneumatics applications. They provide a fast and secure way of connecting tubes and offer considerable advantages over conventional fittings. Complex tubing systems can be assembled more rapidly than with traditional methods and because Super Speedfit fittings are easy to disconnect, fault finding and maintenance become much easier operations. They are particularly useful for development, testing or training programmes where systems may need to be constantly reconfigured. To make a connection, the tube is simply pushed in by hand; the unique John Guest collet locking system holds the tube firmly in place without deforming it or restricting flow. See easy to make a connection on page 3. Technical Specification shown on page 20. USER BENEFITS Specially designed for pneumatics Suitable for plastic and soft metal tubes Grips before it seals Quick disconnection and reusable No tools needed Quality Manufacturer ISO 9001 listed since 1989 Superior flow characteristics Collet cover prevents accidental disconnection and allows colour coding Fittings with prefix PM or PI are produced exclusively in Food and Drug Administration approved materials and are therefore recommended for food quality applications PNEUMATICS Metric Size Fittings SuperThread Selected metric size items have SuperThread, a unique thread seal developed by John Guest to enable male adaptors to be used with a variety of female thread forms. John Guest fittings with brass bodies incorporating the SuperThread can be used with BSP (Parallel), BSPT (Taper), NPTF, PF and PT metal thread forms. The special Polyurethane seal feature means no sealant need be applied to make an airtight joint. There is no danger of tape entering the system. Fittings with SuperThread also have countersunk throughbores to provide superior flow characteristics. The design allows for a smaller compact body and reduced hexagon size. Maximum Torque Values for SuperThread are shown on page.

20 LLDPE TUBE John Guest Linear Low Density Polyethylene Tubing is suitable for a wide range of temperature and pressures, has a broad chemical compatibility and is made from non contaminating materials. The tubing is suitable for pneumatics applications maximum pressure 10 20ºC. At elevated temperatures, (50ºC), mineral oil used in some systems will degrade LLDPE tube and therefore, LLDPE tube used in pneumatic circuits should be periodically checked and replaced if necessary. Chemical Resistance For use of LLDPE with chemicals or potentially aggressive liquids, please refer to our Technical Service Department. NOTE: When using cleaning agents or other potentially aggressive liquids, please ensure compatibility with tubing and fittings. LLDPE is not recommended for mineral oils, gases and fuels or high pressure compressed air / pneumatic systems. Exposure to Ultraviolet Light Only black or blue tube should be installed in areas exposed to any light if biofilm growth is considered an issue. In this case other colours must be protected from exposure to light. Black tube is also UV stabilised and can be installed where exposed to direct sunlight (UV).

Tube Types Plastic Tube Polyethylene, Nylon and Polyurethane conforming to the tolerances shown below. For soft tubing or thin wall tube we recommend the use of tube inserts. Braided Tube Use of Tube to Hose Stems and Elbows is essential when using braided tube. Use of clamps to retain braided tube on barbs is recommended. Metal Tube (soft) Brass, copper or mild steel conforming to the tolerances below. Metal Tube (hard) We do not recommend Super Speedfit Fittings for hard metal tubes. It is essential that outside diameters be free from score marks and that the tube be deburred before inserting into the fitting. Tube Tolerances Super Speedfit fittings are offered for Nylon tube with the following dimensions: Size (Inches) Tolerance (Inches) 5/32 3/ / /4 1/ / Maximum Torque Values The following maximum torque values should be applied.

The maximum torque figures quoted for use with John Guest fittings are dependant on the mating thread conforming to the relevant British or International thread standard. Do not over tighten plastic fittings as this could cause undue stress and eventual failure. Recommended torque figures are shown above and must be adhered to. John Guest recommend OEM Customers consider replacing threaded ports with the modern method of using John Guest Cartridge Systems. Material Specification The fittings are made up of three components: Bodies are produced in strong engineering plastic or in brass. O Rings are Nitrile rubber. Collets are produce in acetal copolymer with stainless steel teeth. Applications 1 4.0Nm 5.0Nm Pipe and fittings should be kept clean and undamaged before use. These products are designed for use with air. For other applications please contact our Customer Services Department. The system is not for use with explosive gases, petroleum spirits and other fuels or for central heating systems. Installations Our Recommendations The pressure rating and installation guidelines of the tubing employed must also be considered during the design of compressed air system. Pipe should be supported at minimum 800mm to prevent excessive load being applied to the fitting. These supports should not be closer than 25mm from the end of the fitting. John Guest fittings and pipe should only be connected after the air receiver and not direct to a compressor. We recommend collect covers be fitted when pipework is hidden inside walls and ceilings. It is recommended that all pipe and fittings installations are pressure tested after installation and before handing over to the final user. See also Easy to Make a Connection on page 4. Side Loads John Guest products are not designed to be used whilst under side load as this may adversely affect their ability to function longterm. Always ensure tubes have good alignment with the fitting. They must also not be subjected to to any form of impact or other damage, such as being hit or dropped, even accidently. If fittings have damaged or suffered an impact, they should be replaced immediately. John Guest warranty does not cover loss caused by any form of damage.
