This high-temp quick disconnect is made of high carbon steel that has been plated to slow oxidation. Each end has high temperature FKM O-rings that withstand up to 500°F (260°C). The quick disconnect has two way shut-off fittings. When they are disconnected, the air flow is shut off in both the plug and socket. This allows your vacuum valves to remain under vacuum pressure after the vacuum source has been disconnected. Parts can then be moved from the bagging area to the curing area without loss of vacuum.
- Standard size: 1/4" female NPT.
- Note: Item is sold as a set (male/female), or as separate halves.

The vacuum gauge reads from 0 to 30" of Hg vacuum. It is used to monitor the vacuum obtained when bagging to prevent crushing of the foam cores.
-
Please note: Gauge has 1/8" pipe fitting. Can be reduced for 1/4" neoprene tubing using the pipe to hose fitting (see below) and separately purchased 1/8" threaded pipe.

An inexpensive and reliable full range miniature vacuum switch with good sensitivity, repeatability and set point tolerance. It has a dead band of 2-3" Hg. (i.e. it will shut the pump off at 18" Hg and turn the pump on at approx. 15" Hg). Adjustable from 1.5" to 30"Hg.
The Vacuum Switch has a 1/4" pipe thread. Order pipe to hose fitting if you intend to plumb into 1/4" neoprene tubing.

Allows the hook-up of two bags when using the Auto-Vac system. Fits 1/4" neoprene tubing.
-
Please note: We do NOT recommend using 2 bags with the EZ-Vac System

The relief valve is a valve used to control or limit the pressure in a system. It is pre-set to open at 10" Hg and close at approx. 8" Hg. It should be used when bagging white foam wings to prevent crushing the wings if the vacuum switch fails to turn the pump off at 7" Hg.
|
|
|
|
The check valve is used to prevent the loss of vacuum in the bag when the pump is not operating. Install with arrow pointing toward direction of flow.
|
|
|
|
An adjustable valve that allows the vacuum to be regulated to prevent crushing of light density foam. It's an inexpensive way to regulate vacuum pressure. However, the vacuum pump must run continuously until the epoxy resin cures.
