Temperature Control

• Hot and cold water Easy circuit identification Immediate connection

circuits Thanks to the identification of
sockets and plugs by coloured
• Temperature control rings, circuit identification is quick
of moulds on and easy. The rings can also serve
injection presses to number the circuits (on the
socket side).
The design and build quality
of the Teflon-coated male threaded
straight sockets guarantees
effective and immediate connection.

Safe locking, quickly

With a strengthened locking system Safe locking
the security of the circuits is made
more reliable. The locked position is Coloured ring hidden =

 ...performance right down the line

3 diameters to support your production Free circulation of fluids

The RPL range with its clear bore combines excellent
flow with a compact design.
RPL connectors come in three sizes and cover all the
flow volumes required for mould temperature control.
Thanks to the clear bore design the risk of scale
formation is eliminated and the circulation flow
protected.

 Simplicity and efficiency at all levels...

For new moulds: Ease of connection and disconnection

Thanks to the knurled locking ring making it easier to grip the plug,
connection and disconnection can be done with one hand, and in record
time.
In a compact RPL connection installation a shoulder (RPL 08 and
RPL 12 mm) or groove (RPL 06 mm) on the locking ring enables a tool to
be used in complete safety.

Possibility of using a tool

flush fitting
- easy mould storage
- no risk of damage to the
sockets.

For existing moulds:

Knurled locking ring

Simplified maintenance
slightly proud fitting.
Seal replacement is quick and easy.
It is done in record time and has no
effect on your productivity.

...and extended life
Performance enhancing extensions
Monobloc sturdy and rigid nickel plated brass socket
extensions fit easily onto the moulds.
They are available in various lengths to suit all your
installations, and can be adjusted to match any layout.
More than 300 products to cover all your needs.
Bridge pieces to rationalise your
assemblies
Reduction in the number of flow meters, ease
of maintenance, reduced size, and flexibility of
assembly; with their functionality our bridge
pieces can enhance your performance.
Flexibility of assembly:
They adjust for misalignment.
