CAMPBELL FITTINGS
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about CAMPBELL FITTINGS from 3G Electric.
What is the maximum working pressure for Campbell Fittings Type DC stainless steel dust caps?
Campbell Fittings Type DC stainless steel dust caps have a maximum working pressure of 250 psi at 70°F. This rating applies to the dust cap when properly installed on a compatible cam and groove coupler. The pressure rating is dependent on the gasket material and the coupling size. For specific applications, always verify the pressure rating against the system's operating conditions and consult the manufacturer's technical data.
What sizes are available for Campbell Fittings Type B stainless steel cam and groove fittings?
Campbell Fittings Type B stainless steel cam and groove fittings are available in sizes ranging from 1 inch to 4 inches. This includes 1 inch, 1-1/2 inch, 2 inch, 3 inch, and 4 inch sizes, each with a corresponding male NPT thread. The overall length varies by size, from 2-15/32 inches for the 1-inch fitting to 4-7/32 inches for the 4-inch fitting. These sizes cover common hose and pipe connections in industrial fluid transfer.
What material is used for the gasket in Campbell Fittings cam and groove couplings?
Campbell Fittings cam and groove couplings, including Type B and Type DC, are equipped with Nitrile (Buna-N) gaskets. Nitrile is compatible with a wide range of fluids, including water, oils, greases, and many hydraulic fluids. It offers good resistance to abrasion and tearing. However, for specific chemical compatibility, always consult a chemical resistance chart, as Nitrile may not be suitable for certain solvents or aggressive chemicals.
Are Campbell Fittings cam and groove couplings interchangeable with other brands?
Campbell Fittings cam and groove couplings are designed to be interchangeable with other camlock fittings that conform to the A-A-59326 (formerly MIL-C-27487) standard. This means they should mate with couplers and adapters from other manufacturers that meet the same standard. However, always verify dimensional compatibility and pressure ratings before mixing components from different brands to ensure a safe and leak-free connection.
What is the purpose of the locking arm on Campbell Fittings dust caps?
The locking arm on Campbell Fittings Type DC dust caps secures the cap onto the female coupler end of a cam and groove hose line. When engaged, the locking arm ensures the cap remains in place, preventing accidental disconnection and protecting the coupling from contamination when not in use. The locking arm is an integral part of the dust cap and is included with the product.
