WEH® Leak Test Connector TW01 for automated vacuum and pressure testing up to max. 9 bar
 

The WEH® TW01 Quick Connector is the perfect tool for pressure and vacuum testing as well as for pressure decay, underwater and helium testing. The Connector reliably and quickly seals bores, internal tubes and internally threaded components, and can also be used for flushing and filling.

The pneumatic actuation makes the coupling the ideal choice for quality testing during production and automation of test procedures, thus increasing productivity.

Only plug the connector into the test piece, apply pilote pressure and the pressure-tight connection is established - in just seconds without tedious hand-tightening. The easy handling creates significant time and cost saving.

As a standard the WEH® TW01 quick coupler is equipped with a stroke limitation and with an additional front seal for connection to female threads. The elastic front seal compresses into the test piece, compensating for possible tolerances in a component‘s size and reliably seals out of round and rough surfaces. The connector only clamps itself firmly over the sealing rubber of the test piece, but does not have any retaining function. Therefore a fixture must be used.

Special versions, e.g. twin connectors for sealing ports in close proximity to each other are available on request. Shaft extensions or shortenings for TW01 Connectors complement the product family.
