Is the PMC Series Acetal Hose Quick Connect Plug with Nut, No Valve, DN 3.2 compatible with medical and gas detection equipment operating up to 8.3 bar and -40°C to +82°C?

Yes. The PMC Series Acetal Hose Quick Connect Plug with Nut, No Valve, DN 3.2 is described as suitable for demanding applications including gas detection systems and medical equipment. It has a working pressure rating up to 8.3 bar and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +82°C, and features an NBR O-ring for a secure seal and an audible click for positive connection. Based on this description, it is compatible with medical and gas detection equipment operating within those pressure and temperature limits.

Can the PMC Series Acetal Hose Quick Connect Plug with Nut, No Valve, DN 3.2 be autoclaved or sterilized without damaging the NBR O-ring or affecting its performance?

Yes — the PMC Series Acetal Hose Quick Connect Plug with Nut, No Valve, DN 3.2 can generally be sterilized, but with important limitations due to the NBR (nitrile) O‑ring. NBR maintains good chemical resistance and performs across a wide temperature range (-40°C to +82°C), and the acetal body is robust; however: - Autoclaving (steam sterilization) typically uses temperatures around 121°C–134°C, well above the +82°C upper limit for safe NBR performance. Exposing the NBR O‑ring to autoclave temperatures risks hardening, loss of elasticity, shrinkage, cracking, and loss of sealing reliability. - Low‑temperature sterilization methods (e.g., ethylene oxide, hydrogen peroxide gas plasma) that stay within the component temperature limits are far less likely to damage the NBR and are preferable if validated for the full assembly and compatible with acetal. - Chemical sterilants (e.g., alcohol, diluted bleach) may be acceptable short‑term but should be checked for compatibility with NBR and acetal; prolonged or repeated chemical exposure can degrade seals over time. - If autoclave sterilization is required, consider replacing the NBR O‑ring with a high‑temperature compatible material (e.g., silicone, EPDM, FFKM) only if those materials are compatible with the application and maintain required sealing performance. Recommendation: Do not autoclave the PMC Series Acetal Hose Quick Connect Plug with Nut, No Valve, DN 3.2 as supplied. Use validated low‑temperature sterilization methods or substitute an O‑ring rated for autoclave temperatures and revalidate sealing performance before use.
