Application
It takes one compressed-air supply and splits it into two lines. Festo positions it for pneumatic installations and automation equipment, where a single 6 mm feed has to serve two outlets from one point in the run.
Fitting and removal
Tubes are pushed into the ports to fit. Each connection has a blue release ring, which is how a tube is freed for removal, so a line can be altered after first fix without disturbing the other two ports' tubing more than necessary.
Check the 6 mm figure against the outside diameter of the tube on your schedule. This connector is specified for 6 mm outside diameter tube only.
