• Specialized Environments: Appropriate for use in sensitive environments where hot works are not permissible.

• Pipe Preparation: It is crucial to use clean, undamaged pipe and fittings. Pipes should be cut squarely, and all burrs should be removed to protect the O-Ring.
• Fittings: Both Twist & Lock and standard Speedfit fittings require the pipe to be fully inserted past the collet and O-Ring. The system allows for easy disconnection and reusability without replacement parts.
• Testing: It is recommended to test the system according to the Technical Checklist to ensure a secure installation.

Stops are positioned at these specific distances from the end of the fitting:

• Avoid using hacksaws for cutting pipes to prevent leaving burrs or score marks, which can lead to leaks.
• Avoid using damaged or scored pipe. Score marks can cause leaks passed the O-ring.
