Di-electric tube fitting is designed to apply where electrical current flowing through a pipe or tubing line must be
interrupted to protect instruments.
Di-electric Tube fitting is commonly used in the natural gas transmission station where installed on impulse lines ahead of stations. This fitting interrupts cathodic current flow while permitting full fluid flow.
Function
The insulation function is performed by thermoplastic insulators.
FKM O-ring and PTFE back up ring provide fluid containment
function within the fitting.
Dk-Lok twin ferrule system provides reliable sealing in the
impulse line tubing.
