... defines a complete range of hydraulic miniature
fittings, check couplings and accessories. MCS offers a simple, inexpensive
means to check pressure in hydraulic systems. Permanently mounted pressure
gauges and shut-off valves are no more necessary, thereby reducing initial
costs. Replacement costs due to gauges broken by system problems or external
damage are also eliminated.
MCS check couplings can be installed at any point of the hydraulic system
where pressure is to be monitored. For remote or hard-to-reach locations, an
MCS bulkhead coupling and an MCS micro-bore hose bring pressure to a central
panel thus simplifying its control. The micro-bore hose is so small and
flexible that it can be installed like electrical wiring.
Pressure can be checked while hydraulic systems are at full pressure. Micro
test fittings and micro-bore hoses can bear a max. working pressure of 630
bar. Thanks to their design, both the connector and the micro hose coupling
can be joined under pressure by screwing the coupling with two fingers
without any tools and any leakage; the connection is self-sealing and will
not loosen under vibration or pressure peaks.
MCS offers optional hose ends to adapt to many other test couplings from
other suppliers. Besides, they can be used for obtaining fluid samples from
various points in hydraulic systems or as an air bleed device.
The "Mini Control System" is versatile enough to be used instead
of rigid pipes for pressure gauges, pressure switches, pressure transducers,
pilot lines, etc.
It dampens pressure peaks and prevents vibration from reaching the
instruments, thanks to the micro hose's capillary effect.
