PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Switch&Lock 360 plug-in coupling from Michel Tube is characterized by its simple operation, where the operator only has to plug the male and female parts together - without having to pay attention to the positioning of the female coupling. The coupling can be clearly heard and seen through the locking bolt, as it is equipped with an optical gauge / red marking. This makes it possible to immediately recognize whether the system is correctly locked, especially in places that are difficult to access or at a distance. It is virtually impossible for the system to come loose - even in the event of vibrations.
Thanks to the guidance of the two bodies and the radii on the bushes, it is extremely easy for the operator to thread in cleanly despite torsion on the hose. First the bushes slide over each other and then the delivery tube dips into the socket. The system therefore features two guide tubes, which ensure mechanical stability.
The coupling can be inserted at any angle up to 360°. To release, the specially shaped spring bolt is lifted with one or two hands.
The coupling is available in three materials and therefore price classes, with the entry-level version consisting of a plastic housing, followed by a version made of aluminum or stainless steel for highly sensitive requirements. As the tube adapter is always made of stainless steel, the Switch&Lock 360 coupling is generally only equipped with stainless steel parts in contact with the product - for all variants. If the complete stainless steel version is selected, the system is made almost entirely of stainless steel.
The coupling can be easily and inexpensively color/mechanically coded by attaching so-called coding rings, even at a later date; the mechanical patterns are repeated every 120°. A total of up to 24 different patterns are theoretically available, whereby the mechanical application is aimed more at reliably demarcating smaller systems or different piping lines. For more diverse applications, we recommend RFID coding, which is also compatible with the Switch&Lock 360 coupling.
On request, the coupling or the plug pin can be customized with an engraving - for example with the machine number or internal codes.
The Switch&Lock 360 coupling can be scaled cost-effectively across all diameters thanks to its basic design. Thanks to the material variance, every customer can choose the right coupling system according to their quality requirements.
