Norgren D2LC0500 Pneufit D Acetal Push-in Fitting - NSF 51/61
Part Number: D2LC0500
Quick Summary
Pneufit D Acetal push-in fitting delivers reliable tubing connections for compressed air and liquids across food, beverage, water treatment, medical devices and analytical equipment. Engineers often face fittings that loosen under vibration, resist temperature swings, or fail regulatory checks; this design addresses those challenges with a robust locking clip and secure grab-ring. These assemblies are NSF certified (51 & 61), FDA‑approved acetal, MOCA certified, and EC 1935/2004 compliant, giving QA teams confidence in hygienic, compliant operation. The combination of durable acetal bodies and EPDM seals minimizes contamination risk while enabling clean-in-place workflows. By pairing proven regulatory compliance with simple tool-free installation, this solution reduces downtime and supports scalable production while keeping long-term operating costs predictable.

FAQs
D2LC0500 is designed for 5/16" tubing and features a locking clip with a releasable stainless-steel grab-ring. This enables tool-free assembly, rapid field installation, and straightforward maintenance, reducing downtime in fast-paced production lines such as food and beverage processing.
The fitting operates from -20 to 98 °C (-4 to 208 °F) and supports pressures from -0.9 to 20 bar (-14.5 to 290 psi). This broad range accommodates environmental variability and diverse process fluids in medical devices, analytical instruments and water systems.
Industries with strict hygiene and regulatory requirements—food and beverage, water treatment, medical and analytical equipment—benefit the most. NSF 51/61, FDA-approved acetal, MOCA certification and EC 1935/2004 compliance simplify audits and support compliant sanitation practices.
The combination of a durable acetal body, EPDM seals, and a locking clip with a stainless-steel grab-ring provides secure tubing retention even under vibration. This minimizes leaks, maintains consistent flow, and supports sanitary CIP workflows without frequent re-assembly.
Tool-free installation reduces commissioning time and field-service costs. Certified materials lower QA risk and simplify regulatory audits, while durable construction minimizes replacement intervals, delivering lower total cost of ownership in regulated facilities.
