3-IN-1 PIERCING VALVE

Fast, easy, secure installation. Provides access to line at any point for charging, testing or evacuation. Two valves cover 3/16" to 5/8" O.D. tubing. Has depressor valve and needle
valve shut-off.

Valve clamps on tubing line with two captive slotted head screws: positive built-in mechanical stop for each tube size eliminates tightening guesswork. To pierce tube, thread down the combination l/4" flare port, stem and needle using knob furnished or a suitable wrench, back off stem and connect depressor type hose for testing or charging. After service is completed valve is closed and left on line for future service. Dust cap provided.

Three-point sealing [in Fig. 1: (1) needle-type valve, (2) gasket and (3) check valve] prevents leakage. Neoprene seal withstands temperatures near 300° F.
