Female 2'' camlock - male S60x6 converter fitting for IBC GRV 1000 litres

Female 2'' camlock - male S60x6 converter fitting for IBC GRV 1000 litres (Reference: 101126) is an essential technical component for industrial fluid transfer installations. Manufactured by CPP, this reinforced polypropylene converter fitting enables efficient connection of your female 2'' camlock equipment to IBC tanks with male S60x6 threading.

Professional applications and use cases

This camlock-S60x6 converter fitting perfectly meets the needs of professionals in the chemical, food processing, pharmaceutical and civil engineering industries. It allows direct connection of your female 2'' camlock pipes and systems to 1000-litre IBC tanks fitted with S60x6 valves.

Main applications include chemical product transfer, industrial water distribution, conditioning of nutrient solutions for agriculture, and fluid management in production workshops. This fitting is indispensable for industrial maintenance operators, farmers using IBC tanks for irrigation, and professional cleaning companies.

Its robust design makes it a preferred choice for temporary installations such as construction sites, events or seasonal applications requiring reliable and quickly demountable connections.

Technical specifications and materials

The construction in polypropylene loaded with 30% fibreglass gives this fitting exceptional mechanical properties. This composition ensures high rigidity and excellent resistance to mechanical stress, while maintaining good chemical resistance against numerous industrial fluids.

The female 2'' camlock threading strictly complies with Camlock standards A-A-59326:1992, guaranteeing perfect compatibility with all standard market equipment. The external diameter D1 of 63mm (2.48'') and the internal threading of 59.4mm (2.34'') with a pitch of 2.3mm (11 TPI) ensure precise and leak-free assembly.

The male S60x6 outlet is specifically designed to fit the standard valves of 1000-litre IBC tanks, creating a secure and durable connection. The optimised geometry of the fitting minimises pressure losses and facilitates fluid flow.

Installation and commissioning

Installation of the converter fitting is carried out in a few simple steps. Begin by checking the cleanliness of the contact surfaces and the absence of foreign bodies on the threads. Manually screw the male S60x6 thread onto the valve of your IBC tank following the appropriate direction of rotation.

For the camlock connection, perfectly align the cams with the notches of your 2'' male camlock fitting, then perform a 90° clockwise rotation until you hear the locking click. Systematically verify that the cams are fully engaged before pressurising.

Before first use, carry out a leak test at low pressure to detect any potential leaks. Preventive maintenance consists of regularly cleaning the contact surfaces and checking the condition of the seals.

Expert advice and system optimisation

To maximise the performance of your installation, pair this converter fitting with professional quality S60x6 IBC valves and 2'' camlock hoses suited to your fluids. The use of NBR or EPDM seals depending on the nature of the products being transferred optimises sealing and service life.

Pay attention to tightening torques: excessive tightening can damage polypropylene threads, while insufficient tightening compromises the seal. Always use appropriate tools and follow the manufacturer's recommendations.

For seasonal applications, store the fitting in a dry, temperate location to preserve its properties. In winter, completely drain the fitting to avoid damage caused by freezing. Complete your installation with camlock caps to protect unused connections and fixing clamps to secure flexible hoses.
