Hybrid and RFID couplings
Hybrid couplings
The CPC hybrid coupling carries fluid or air plus electrical lines for power and signal through a single connector. A twist latch joins every line in one motion, so modular tools, hand pieces or umbilicals can be changed quickly. Dry-break valves keep the medium in place on disconnection; depending on the version, pressure runs from vacuum to 1.0 or 3.1 bar at 0 to 49 °C. Polypropylene body, EPDM seal and a 3.2 mm (1/8") hose connection.

How to choose Hybrid couplings
What matters when choosing: properties, comparison and typical applications.
Selection criteria
| Criterion | Available | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Lines | Fluid or air, power, signal | One connection point instead of several separate connectors. |
| Version | Valved coupling body, panel-mount insert | Body hangs in the line, insert is fixed in the device. |
| Pressure | Vacuum to 1.0 bar or 3.1 bar | Choose according to the operating pressure of the device. |
| Temperature | 0 to 49 °C, 4 to 38 °C | Check the value for each item. |
| Materials | Polypropylene, EPDM | Chemically resistant housing. |
| Connection | 3.2 mm (1/8") hose | Inner diameter of the hose. |
Frequently asked questions
- Which lines can the hybrid coupling connect?
- Fluid or air together with electrical wires for power and signal. One connection point between device and tool, hand piece or umbilical replaces several separate connectors.
- Does fluid escape on disconnection?
- The hybrid coupling uses dry-break valves that close as the halves separate, so the medium stays in the line and in the device.
- What pressure and temperature are permitted?
- Depending on the version, pressure ranges from vacuum to 1.0 bar or to 3.1 bar. Operating temperature is 0 to 49 °C or 4 to 38 °C respectively.
- How is the coupling mounted?
- The coupling body hangs free in the line, while the panel-mount insert fits into the device wall or panel. The hose connection has a 3.2 mm (1/8") inner diameter.
