Description
Parker's FEM Series are double shut off, non-spill quick couplings designed to minimize spillage and air inclusion when connecting or disconnecting and are interchangeable with other products complying with HTMA - ISO 16028. FEM Couplers and nipples are available in a range of sizes as well as male and female fitting ends to be versatile for use in applications with pressures up to 4568 psi.

Features/Benefits:
• All sizes are globally interchangeable with other couplings complying with HTMA (ISO 16028) standards
• Non-spill flush face valves minimize fluid loss when disconnecting, to reduce environmental contamination and avoid safety hazards caused by spillage.
• Flush face valves minimize the amount of air that can enter the system when connecting fluid lines, thus preventing accelerated wear of the system's components.
• Male bulkhead fitting ends for panel or plate mounting options
• FEC nipples provide the ability to connect under residual pressure caused by thermal expansion.
• Optional sleeve lock guards against accidental disconnection
Applications:
• Skid loader attachments
• Hydraulic tools
• Constuction equipment attachments
• Industrial hydraulic lines
• Agricultural implements
• Coolant fill and drain lines - Contact QCD for a brass, FEM style drain port nipple that is recommended for use by the Technology and Maintenance Council of the American Trucking Association, TMC Recommended Practice 353
