Peter Huber Angle Connections, 90°, M16x1

The Peter Huber 6195 is a high-quality 90-degree angle adapter designed to optimize hose routing in laboratory and industrial thermoregulation systems. Featuring an M16x1 female thread to an M16x1 male thread, this elbow adapter allows for sharp turns in fluid lines without kinking or stressing the connected hoses. It is an essential accessory for installations where space is limited—such as inside fume hoods or behind compact circulators—ensuring that highly insulated and often rigid thermal hoses can be positioned efficiently without obstructing other equipment.

Key Features:

• Brand: Peter Huber
• Connection Type: M16x1 internal thread (female) to M16x1 external thread (male)
• Angle: Fixed 90° for space-saving hose management
• Material: Durable, thermally resistant metal for long-term reliability in laboratory environments
• Compatibility: Standard fit for Huber Ministat, KISS, and smaller CC series temperature control units
• Functionality: Prevents hose kinking and reduces mechanical strain on circulator pump outlets
• Application: Ideal for tight laboratory setups and complex fluid distribution loops

By utilizing the 6195 angle connection, users can maintain a cleaner and safer workspace. The adapter is precision-machined to ensure a secure, leak-proof seal with Huber’s standard M16x1 fittings, preserving the flow integrity of the temperature control circuit. Its robust construction is designed to withstand the thermal stress of frequent heating and cooling cycles typical in precise scientific research.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why should I use a 90° angle adapter?
Insulated circulator hoses are often thick and inflexible. If your circulator's outlets point directly toward a wall or another piece of equipment, the 6195 allows you to redirect the hose immediately at a right angle, saving significant space and preventing damage to the hose.

2. Does this adapter affect the flow rate?
While any fitting adds a minor amount of resistance, the 6195 is designed with a smooth internal bore to minimize pressure drop, ensuring that your circulator pump maintains the required flow for accurate temperature control.

3. Do I need an O-ring or gasket for installation?
Yes, the female M16x1 side typically requires a flat seal or O-ring (often included with the circulator or hose) to ensure a pressure-tight connection. Always check the condition of your seals during installation.

4. Can this be used for high-temperature applications?
Yes, being made of high-quality metal, it is designed to operate within the standard temperature ranges of Huber M16-compatible units. For extreme temperatures (above 200°C), ensure your sealing materials are rated for the target temperature.

5. Will this fit larger Unistat models?
Most Unistats use larger M24, M30, or M38 threads. For those units, Huber offers larger versions of this adapter (e.g., model 6461 for M30). The 6195 is specifically for the M16x1 standard found on smaller lab units.
