A coupler is an essential component used in pump systems and in general plumbing as a way to connect two section of pipe or to join a pump to pipes. Providing a secure join that enables the flow of liquid or gas, certain couplers can also help reduce noise and vibration and can enable sections of the system to be easily disassembled if needed, rather than having to cut pipes or take the whole system apart for maintenance or repairs.
Couplers can be made from a range of materials, including aluminium, brass, stainless steel, galvanised steel and plastic, depending on the intended application, and are rated for different pressures. Common types of coupler used in pump systems include Bauer couplers, Camlock couplers, Perrot couplers and quick couplers.
Couplers have a critical role to play in pump systems because they enable ease of maintenance, can allow for slight misalignments, help prevent leaks and can even help extend the life of the pump system by reducing vibration and mechanical wear and tear on pump and pipes.
