Frequently asked questions

Common questions about JACO from 3G Electric.

What materials are JACO compression fittings available in?

JACO compression fittings are available in several thermoplastic materials, including nylon, acetal copolymer, polypropylene, and PVDF. The choice of material depends on factors such as chemical compatibility, temperature range, and pressure requirements. For example, nylon fittings are commonly used in pneumatic and fluid systems, while PVDF fittings offer enhanced chemical resistance for corrosive environments. Acetal copolymer fittings are often selected for their dimensional stability and are available with FDA certification for food contact applications. 3G Electric stocks a range of JACO fittings in these materials to suit different application needs.

What are the pressure ratings for JACO acetal copolymer tube fittings?

JACO acetal copolymer tube fittings, such as the union compression connector (MPN 15-10-C-PG), are rated to 220 psi. This pressure rating applies to the fitting itself under specified operating conditions. It is important to consider the entire system's pressure and temperature limits when selecting fittings. The acetal copolymer material provides good mechanical strength and resistance to many chemicals, making it suitable for a variety of fluid and air systems. For specific applications, always refer to the manufacturer's technical data for derating factors based on temperature and media.

How do JACO PVDF ball check valves prevent backflow?

JACO PVDF ball check valves are inline valves that allow flow in one direction and prevent reverse flow. They consist of a PVDF body, a ball (either PTFE or 316 stainless steel), and a seat (316 stainless steel). When flow is in the forward direction, the ball is pushed off the seat, allowing fluid to pass. When flow reverses, the ball seats against the seat, blocking backflow. These valves are designed for horizontal installation and are available with male NPT connections in sizes from 1/4 in to 1/2 in. The choice of ball material depends on the media and required sealing characteristics.

Are JACO fittings suitable for food and beverage applications?

Some JACO fittings are FDA certified for use in food and beverage applications. For example, the acetal copolymer union compression connector (MPN 15-10-C-PG) is FDA certified, meaning it meets the requirements for materials intended to come into contact with food. However, not all JACO products carry this certification, so it is important to verify the specific part number. When selecting fittings for food and beverage applications, consider factors such as cleanability, chemical resistance to cleaning agents, and compliance with relevant regulations. 3G Electric can provide certification details for specific JACO products upon request.

What sizes of JACO compression fittings does 3G Electric stock?

3G Electric stocks JACO compression fittings in a range of sizes to accommodate different tubing outer diameters. Common sizes include 5/16 in, 3/8 in, and 5/8 in OD tubing, among others. The fittings are available in various configurations, such as unions, bulkhead unions, elbows, and tees. The part numbers typically indicate the size and configuration; for example, 600GW1 is a bulkhead compression union for 5/16 in OD tubing. For a complete list of available sizes and configurations, refer to the product catalog or contact 3G Electric directly.

Can JACO check valves be used with corrosive fluids?

Yes, JACO PVDF ball check valves are designed for use with corrosive fluids. The PVDF body provides excellent chemical resistance to a wide range of aggressive media, including acids, bases, and solvents. The internal components, such as the PTFE ball and 316 stainless steel seat, also offer good chemical compatibility. However, the specific fluid and operating conditions should be evaluated to ensure compatibility. Factors such as concentration, temperature, and pressure can affect performance. It is recommended to consult chemical resistance charts and, if necessary, test the valve under actual conditions. 3G Electric can assist in selecting the appropriate valve for corrosive applications.
