Koolance Quick Disconnects

After a quarter twist, the quick-disconnect nozzles will separate. Liquid on both sides will be automatically obstructed with only 0.5-1mL freed. Nozzles are nickel-plated brass.

How Do Quick Disconnects Work ?

Koolance quick disconnects (QDC) are specially designed fittings which automatically shut-off coolant flow upon disconnection. The flow path is established when the QDC couplings are reconnected. Quick disconnects are very useful for areas in a cooling or plumbing system that are altered and moved frequently. They can also increase convenience when draining a system.

QDC shutoffs work by having an internal valve that self-seals and opens as needed. Both male and female fittings contain a "plunger" that is spring-activated. When connected, the valves on both sides remain open to allow coolant to pass through. When detached, each side immediately closes.
