They are available in configurations ranging from 4 to 16 ports, suitable for low, medium, and high-pressure applications.

Key Features:

Allows simultaneous connection of multiple lines with a single operation.
Reduces setup time and minimizes human errors in piping jobs.
Enhances safety and reliability by eliminating connection errors.
Supports automation and unmanned systems, contributing to flexible manufacturing systems (FMS).
Space and energy-saving design promotes a clean working environment.

Applications: Suitable for factory automation, industrial robots, machine tools, and environments requiring frequent mold changes, such as automotive assembly plants and chemical factories.

Technical Details:

Working pressure: 0.7 MPa (7 kgf/cm²).
Valve structure: One-way shut-off.
Body materials: Brass (chrome plated), aluminum alloy, or steel for plates.
Seal material: Nitrile rubber, suitable for temperatures from -20°C to +60°C.
Not suitable for vacuum applications.

Models and Dimensions: Detailed dimensions and specifications for each model, including the MAM-1TP series, are provided, considering mass, material, and connection types.

Compliance and Standards: Products comply with the RoHS Directive and are manufactured under ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards, ensuring quality and environmental management.

Design and Features: The couplings feature a two-way shut-off valve structure to prevent fluid spillage during disconnection, a manual lever for easy operation, and a lock mechanism to prevent accidental disconnection.

Materials and Construction: The Cupla body is made from brass with nickel plating, and the plate is constructed from aluminum alloy. The locking unit is made from steel with electroless nickel phosphorus plating. The sealing material is fluoro rubber, suitable for temperatures from -20°C to +180°C.

Performance Characteristics: Flow rate and pressure loss characteristics are detailed, with specific models having different minimum cross-sectional areas and volumes of spillage. Suitability for vacuum is noted at 1.3 × 10^-1 Pa.

Interchangeability and Customization: No connection is possible between plates with different numbers of ports. Made-to-order Multi Cuplas are available for customization.

Usage Recommendations: Users should read the safety guide and instruction sheet before use to ensure safe and effective operation.

Specifications and Dimensions: Detailed specifications for various models, including dimensions, thread sizes, and torque requirements, are provided. Models are categorized by size, such as MAS-2S, MAS-3S, etc.

Performance and Pressure Ratings: Designed for medium pressure applications with a working pressure of 7.0 MPa and a proof pressure of 10.0 MPa. Suitable for fluids like water, air, and hydraulic oil.

Material and Temperature Specifications: Body material is stainless steel with electroless nickel phosphorus plating, and the seal material is fluoro rubber (FKM), suitable for temperatures from -20°C to +180°C.

Safety Precautions and Usage Guidelines: Includes safety instructions categorized under Danger, Warning, and Caution. Users are advised to perform leak tests, use inline filters, and avoid using Cuplas in dusty or corrosive environments.

Storage and Maintenance: Cuplas should be stored in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area. Regular checks on appearance, function, and performance are recommended if stored for extended periods.
