PD Series
Applications
PD Series couplings provide easy connection for mechanical
gauges or specialized diagnostic equipment like SensoControl®.
Typically, PD or BPD nipples are permanently mounted in the
system at threaded test ports, in rigid tubing or in hose
assemblies. PD couplers are attached to test instruments.
Couplers align to the mating nipples without threading. This
allows gauges, transducers and other test equipment to be
snapped into place without difficulty.
Note: Protective dust plugs and caps play a crucial role in the
life of a quick coupling and no purchase of a hydraulic quick
coupling is complete without the selection of an appropriate
dust plug and cap. See pages noted in Table of Contents for
dust plugs and caps for the Parker full line of hydraulic
couplings.
Features
• Flush-face poppet valves minimize air inclusion and
spillage, provide easy-to-clean surfaces, and help to
prevent contamination.
• Grip-tight knurled sleeves help to make connecting and dis-
connecting easy, even while wearing gloves.
• Nipples are machined from high tensile steel for strength to
withstand 6000 PSI continuous operating pressure. BPD
nipples offer features similar to the standard steel PD
nipples with the added feature of a brass body.
• PD nipples are designed to meet or exceed SAE J1502 and
ISO 15171-1 design and performance specifications.
• End connections include pipe, O-ring, metric thread,
bulkhead, 37° Flare, ORFS and bite-type.
