Abstract: An assembly for limiting excess flow includes a seat that provides a sealing surface and a diaphragm that is coupled to the seat. The diaphragm includes a seal portion and at least one leg extending between the seal portion and the seat. The seal portion is spaced apart from the sealing surface during normal flow conditions and is in engagement with the sealing surface when a predetermined flow condition is exceeded.

Abstract: A universal hydraulic tool for compressing a connector fitting to tube portions to be joined is disclosed. The tool includes a base member and a tool member which define aligned receiving chambers. The base member defines a first jaw set and a slide member defines a second jaw set. The reception chambers have a width adjacent the jaw sets slightly larger than the connector fitting end. The base member mounts a cylinder having a piston operatively connected to the slide member. Relative movement between the base member and the slide member compress the connector fitting in either the forward direction or the reverse direction to form the desired tube joint without using a different hydraulic tool.
