Eaton’s Model 61154 Dry Break Quick Disconnect (QD) supersedes earlier Model 60672-1 and is available for use on all of Eaton’s Carter product line of nozzles, both commercial and military. It also mates all other makes of military nozzles. In addition, an overwing/underwing nozzle interchange adapter is also available. Although as a complete unit Model 61154 is fully interchangeable with Model 60672-1 and many of the internal parts are identical, the male and female connections are not interchangeable with the similar parts of the older unit. Most refueling procedures require that the nozzle screen be checked periodically. With a standard nozzle/hose system, the hose must be drained to accomplish this feat. The use of a dry break instead of the standard QD on the nozzle keeps the fuel in the hose. Only the residual fuel in the nozzle needs to be caught during the inspection. All previous dry break disconnects had several disadvantages, including the need to use a screwdriver to accomplish the disconnect. The separation of the two halves of the unit was a “two-man” job and the seal design prevented the unit from actually swivelling during nozzle connection.
