RS - Model TX series -Dry Disconnect Couplings

This coupling series meets the most up-to-date requirements - but is designed around a basic bayonet principle according to STANAG 3756 that is tried and tested for decades, i.e.:  The TX dry disconnect couplings consist of two coupling halves (male and female sections), each of which is equipped with a disc cut-off valve. Coupling is performed by pushing the male half axially into the female half. A rotary motion creates an impermeable connection between the two coupling halves. Further rotation by approximately 100° opens the valves by transmitting a sliding action into the centre of the male section, which opens a ring-shaped flow channel. During the uncoupling operation, the rotatory movement is performed in the opposite direction: The flow channel in both coupling halves is impermeably sealed before the coupling halves can be separated.
