Heated Quick-Connector Keeps Crankcase Lines from Freezing
WIXOM, MICH…JUNE 4, 2004… NORMA Products (U.S.), Inc. has introduced two solutions to frozen crankcase ventilation lines — heated NORMAQUICK® quick-connectors and NORMAFLEX® plastic tubing that prevent condensation from freezing. The tubing can be heated throughout, or just in problem areas.
The heated quick-connector has been specified by a leading OEM for a vehicle that will begin production later this year. It is an enhancement of the NORMAQUICK® V2, commonly used to reduce assembly time in crankcase ventilation, secondary air and fuel line applications. The compact V2 is available in a variety of sizes, in both straight and 90° configurations.
The heated tubing, like standard NORMAFLEX® tubing, can be smooth or corrugated. Single-layer and multi-layer construction are available; the latter has proven a cost-effective alternative to rubber hose for meeting LEV II requirements.
NORMA Products manufactures a wide range of clamps and connectors, used globally in a wide range of automotive, heavy truck and industrial applications. Examples include FBS (constant tension), TORRO® (worm-drive), Cobra (low-profile), GBS (heavy-duty), and RSGU (pipe).
NORMA Products (U.S.), Inc., headquartered in Wixom, Mich., is the North American subsidiary of Rasmussen GmbH of Germany.
