Select suitable tubing to connect to the tubing element supply and discharge connectors.
Check that its pressure rating is appropriate to the application.

Sanitary ¾in Tri-clamp connectors

Sanitary connectors are connected to a tubing system using Tri-clamps and EPDM gaskets.

Hold the connector end of the supply or discharge tube against the element connector,
with a gasket between them.

Use a Tri-clamp to engage both flanges squarely, close it and tighten.

Hold the pump securely and push the female fitting (available from Watson-Marlow
Bredel) over the element until it clicks into place.

To disconnect, hold the pump securely and pull the connector outer sleeve and twist
