Common Questions for Imperial Elbow Kwik-coupler 1/4" For R404a & R22 - 17-c

How does the Imperial Kwik-Coupler work?

The Kwik-Coupler uses a push-pull mechanism to connect and disconnect from service ports quickly. An automatic shut-off valve closes when the coupler is disconnected, preventing refrigerant loss without needing to manually close a valve or recover the charge first.

What refrigerants is the Imperial 17-C suited for?

The 17-C is designed for R404A and R22 refrigerant systems. The 1/4" SAE fitting is the standard service port size for these refrigerants. For R410A and R32 systems with 5/16" service ports, a different coupler size is required.

Why use an elbow coupler instead of a straight coupler?

The elbow design routes the hose at 90 degrees from the service port, which is useful in tight spaces where a straight coupler and hose would foul against the equipment cabinet, pipework, or other components. It reduces strain on the hose and fitting in confined installations.
