What are the benefits of using a Tri Clamp system?
Tri Clamp systems provide a secure, leak-proof connection that is easy to assemble and disassemble. They allow for quick cleaning and sanitization, making them ideal for brewing and fermentation applications.
What is the purpose of the racking arm pickup pipe?

This tubing has a diameter of .75 inches, which provides a good balance between flow rate and resistance. A larger diameter could increase flow but may also increase the risk of picking up sediment.

To install, simply attach the Tri Clamp fittings of the pickup pipe to the corresponding TC fittings on your fermenter. Ensure the connections are tight and secure to prevent leaks.
Is this product resistant to corrosion?
Yes, this pickup pipe is typically made from stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion and is safe for use with most brewing and fermenting liquids.
Can this system be used with other fermentation devices?

How do I clean and maintain the dip tubing?
Cleaning can be done using hot water and a suitable brewing cleaner. After cleaning, ensure the equipment is thoroughly rinsed and sanitized before use. Disassembling the Tri Clamp connection will allow you to clean all components effectively.
What should I do if I experience any issues with the tubing?
If you encounter any problems such as leaks or damage, check the connections to ensure they are tight. If issues persist, consider replacing the damaged part or consult the manufacturer for assistance.
