Qcc Connectors
TYPE I (QCC) INSTALLATION ADAPTERS. Designed to provide a safe permanent outlet when installed into the household LP-Gas system. This permanent outlet eliminates the need for smaller containers when operating outdoor LP-Gas equipment. It is recommended that a shutoff valve be installed upstream from the adapter inlet to facilitate future servicing.
- Inlet: 1/4 in. FNPT
- Outlet: 1-5/16 male acme/female POL
- Can be used with both type I (QCC) and male POL connections
- ME398 and ME399 include an internal shutoff valve which provides a leak free means for outdoor equipment to be safely connected and disconnected without shutting down the entire system
- Material: brass
- Full flow
The ME398 Quick Closing adapter is designed to convert a CGA 510 POL cylinder valve to be used with a Type I QCC appliance side swivel nut fitting. The male POL end of the adapter is installed in the CGA 510 valve. Once installed, the other end of the adapter affords the same positive connection features as the Type I QCC valve and retains the female POL threads for filling.
- Quick closing cylinder adapter
- Inlet: male soft nose Pol
- Outlet: 1-5/16 in. male ACME
- Caution: be sure cylinder valve is closed (clockwise direction) before installing the ME398P adapter
- Includes poppet
- Can be used with both type I (QCC) and male POL connections
The Type I (QCC) connectors (ME517, ME518 and ME519 Series) are designed with a Built-in excess flow feature and a positive shutoff that will not allow gas to ow until the connector is fully engaged. In case of a fire the Built-in thermal protection on the QCC connector melts allowing the nipple to disengage from the tank connection and stop the ow of propane. These QCC connectors also provide a positive back check seal at disconnect to eliminate the propane in the hose from being released into the atmosphere. To connect a Type I (QCC) connector to a cylinder, close the cylinder valve and the control valves to all connected appliances. Hand tighten the QCC onto the cylinder and slowly open the cylinder valve. If the valve is opened too quickly, the excess flow device will be activated closing the flow of propane to the appliance. If the excess flow device is activated, close appliance control valves and wait 60-seconds to allow pressure in the line to equalize. Additional equalization time may be needed depending on the length of the hose.
- Note: the type I (QCC) thread replaces the POL connection on 40 lbs. or less DOT propane cylinders
- Inlet: 1-5/16 in. female acme
- Outlet: 1/4 in. MNPT
- Flow capacity: 200 SCFH air/400,000 BTU per hour

The ME492 appliance adaptor is machined of solid brass. The 1/4 female pipe fitting allows a camping appliance to be adapted to a larger bulk cylinder instead of the smaller disposable LP gas cylinder. The male 1-20 threaded end of the adapter fits all standard camping appliance regulator inlets, such as camp stoves, lanterns or portable heaters.
