Product Range
The document details a wide range of push-fit fittings, tubes, and fluid control products for drinks dispense and pure water applications. The fittings are designed for easy installation and disconnection, providing a leakproof connection without the need for replacement parts.
Materials and Construction
Super Speedfit fittings consist of bodies made from acetal copolymer or polypropylene, 'O' rings from Nitrile rubber or EPDM, and collets with stainless steel teeth. These materials ensure a secure grip and leakproof seal.
Installation and Usage
The document provides instructions on making connections using the Super Speedfit system, highlighting the ease of assembly and maintenance. It includes a typical bar installation setup and emphasizes the advantages of using these fittings over traditional methods.
Technical Specifications
The document includes detailed technical specifications for various fittings, including inch and metric sizes, thread types, and part numbers. It covers different types of adaptors, connectors, and valves suitable for various applications, including liquids and inert gases.
Specifications
The document lists numerous part numbers along with their corresponding dimensions and specifications, such as the outer diameter (OD) of stems and tubes for various fittings. It also includes working pressures and temperatures for different materials.
Procedures
Instructions are provided for making and disconnecting tube-in-tube connections, emphasizing correct tube positioning, secure connections, and leak verification. For disconnection, it stresses depressurizing lines and using specific tools like the Coaxial Collet Release Tool.
Standards and Recommendations
The document highlights the suitability of different materials for specific applications, such as polypropylene fittings for chemical resistance and Superseal fittings for stainless steel tubes. It advises on specific ranges for compressed air and vacuum applications.
System Benefits
The tube-in-tube technology is emphasized for maintaining temperature conditioning of beverages, reducing microbiological activity, and enhancing product quality. It offers benefits such as consistent temperature at pour and reduced waste, leading to more revenue per barrel.
Key Data from Tables
Tables list part numbers, dimensions, and compatible fittings, such as the CI Range fittings with their tube OD and thread specifications, highlighting their use in water and potable liquid applications.
1/4 Turn Valves
These valves are designed for temporary servicing of downstream equipment and must be used only in fully open or closed positions. They should not be used to control flow, as a permanent termination, without proper assembly, or as a faucet.
LLDPE Tubing
John Guest's LLDPE tubing is made from Linear Low Density Polyethylene, suitable for cold and intermittent hot water applications. It offers broad chemical compatibility and is certified by NSF International. The tubing is robust, resistant to environmental stress cracking, and designed for use with John Guest fittings.
Chemical Resistance
LLDPE tubing is not recommended for use with mineral oils, gases, fuels, or high-pressure systems. It should be checked periodically if used in pneumatic circuits.
Potable Water Applications
Suitable for potable cold water with a maximum chlorine content of 4 ppm. Exposure to sunlight and temperatures above 70°F can reduce service life.
Accessories
Various accessories are available, including collet covers, tube inserts, and locking clips, designed to prevent accidental disconnection and support tubing.
Installation and Maintenance
John Guest products require minimal maintenance but should be visually inspected regularly. Damaged or leaking products should be replaced immediately. Installation must comply with technical specifications and national standards.
Warranty
John Guest provides a warranty against manufacturing defects, but it is the user's responsibility to ensure suitability for their application and proper installation.
Conclusion
John Guest's Super Speedfit fittings offer a reliable and efficient solution for fluid control in drinks dispense and pure water systems, backed by rigorous quality standards and a comprehensive product range.

How Super Speedfit Works To make a connection, the tube is simply pushed in by hand; the unique patented John Guest collet locking system then holds the tube firmly in place without deforming it or restricting flow. Materials of construction Super Speedfit fittings are made up of three components: Bodies are produced in an acetal copolymer or polypropylene. ‘O’ rings are Nitrile rubber or EPDM. Collets are produced in acetal copolymer or polypropylene with stainless steel teeth. Grips before it seals ‘O’ ring provides a leakproof seal The Collet (gripper) has stainless steel teeth which hold...
