 Common Safety Instructions for Quick-Fitting Joint
Be sure to read the following instructions before selecting and using the PISCO devices. Also read the detailed instructions for individual series.

Warnings : 1. Never use the Quick-Fitting Joint with fluid medium other than air or water (usable with some models). For applications with fluid medium other than air or
water, contact PISCO for instructions.
2. Never use joints other than Tube Fitting Spatter or other all metal joints where they are exposed to spatter. Otherwise spatter can cause fire.
3. For applications in which the threaded side or the tube connection side is subject to vibration or rotation, use Rotary Joints, High Rotary Joints or
Multi-Circuit Rotary Blocks only. Swinging or rotation may damage the joint body.
4. For applications with hot water of 60°C (140°F) or above or thermal oil, use no other joints than Die Temperature Control Fittings, Tube Fitting Stainless
SUS316, Tube Fitting Stainless SUS316 Compression Fitting, and All Brass Compression Fitting. Heat or hydrolysis may damage the joint body.
5. For applications in which the scattering of static electricity or charging must be prevented, use no other joints than anti-static (EG) Joints. Static electricity
may cause system malfunction or trouble.
6. Do not allow tension, twist or bending forces to act on the joints. Undue forces may damage the joint body.

Cautions : 1. When you use tubes of brands other than ours, be sure to confirm that the outside diameter of the tubes satisfies the tolerance specified in Table 1.

4. Avoid too frequent switching of air pressure. Otherwise the device body may heat up to cause burns on you.
5. Do not allow tension, twist or bending forces to act on the joints. Undue forces may damage the joint body.
6. For applications in which the threaded side or the tube connection side is subject to vibration, use Rotary Joints, High Rotary Joints or Multi-Circuit Rotary
Blocks only. Swinging or rotation may damage the joint body.
7. For applications with hot water of 60°C (140°F) or above or thermal oil, use no other joints than Die Temperature Control Fitting, Tube Fitting Stainless
SUS316, Tube Fitting Stainless SUS316 Compression Fitting, and All Brass Compression Fitting. Heat or hydolysis may damage the joint body.
8. For applications in which the scattering of static electricity or charging must be prevented, use no other joints than EG Joints. Static electricity may cause
system malfunction or trouble.
9. Never use joint other than Tube Fitting Spatter or Tube Fitting Brass where they are exposed to spatter. Otherwise can cause fire.
10. Carry out maintenance and checks of equipment only after turning power off, shutting fluid off and making certain that the pressure in the piping has
dropped to zero. Please conduct maintenance after confirming following points.
(1) Make sure that maintenance is safe for all the systems involving PISCO products.
(2) When re-activate equipment after maintenance, make sure safety measures against fly-out are taken and re-activate equipment with care.
(3) Please secure space for maintenance when the circuit is designed.
11. When the fluid is admitted to the equipment and if there is a possibility to cause damage to it due to leakage, conduct safety measures such as protect
cover beforehand.

Caution : 1. In installing the piping, be sure to remove dust or drainage from within the piping. Dust or drainage left unremoved may enter other equipment, thus
