Food and beverage couplings (NSF)
PLC-NSF
PLC NSF is the proven CPC acetal quick disconnect with 1/4" flow and the widest choice of sizes and configurations. The injection-moulded acetal (POM) bodies resist most mild chemical solutions, and the NSF versions are intended for beverage and condiment lines. The rated range is -40 to 82 °C with NBR seals. PLC mates with LC chrome-plated brass and PLC12 polypropylene couplings, and a Multi-Mount connector links several lines at once.

Frequently asked questions
- Which lines is PLC NSF intended for?
- Beverage and condiment lines in dispensing equipment. Acetal resists most mild chemical solutions.
- Which couplings does PLC mate with?
- PLC mates with chrome-plated brass LC and polypropylene PLC12. Where one side has to take more load, it can be specified in brass.
- Are push-to-connect terminations available?
- Yes, one coupling body has a John Guest push-to-connect for 9.5 mm (3/8") OD tubing. Hose barbs, NPT threads and PTF are also available.
- What is the Multi-Mount connector?
- A multiple-line connector that couples three to five lines in one step. It is keyed to prevent mismatched connections.
