Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.

Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

International Standard ISO 16028 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 131, Fluid power systems,
Subcommittee SC 4, Connectors and similar products and components.

Introduction
In hydraulic fluid power systems, power is transmitted and controlled through a liquid under pressure within an
enclosed circuit. Quick-action couplings are used to join or separate quickly fluid conductor lines, without the use
of tools or special devices.

Hydraulic fluid power — Flush-face type, quick-action couplings

for use at pressures of 20 MPa (200 bar) to 31,5 MPa (315 bar) —
Specifications

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the interface dimensions for interchangeability and specifies the performance
requirements for hydraulic, flush-face type, quick-action couplings for use at pressures of 20 MPa (200 bar) to
31,5 MPa (315 bar).

Couplings in accordance with this International Standard are not designed to connect or disconnect under
pressure.

NOTE Couplings in accordance with this International Standard provide for automatic sealing of the fluid pressure on the
upstream side and on the downstream side when the coupling is disconnected.

3 Terms and definitions

For the purposes of this International Standard, the terms and definitions given in ISO 5598 apply.

4 Dimensional requirements
Hydraulic flush face quick-action couplings shall conform to the dimensions shown in Figure 1 and given in Table 1.
The coupling size relates to the nominal inside diameter of the hose, in accordance with ISO 4397, that is
recommended for use with the coupling.

5 Performance requirements
5.1 Hydraulic, flush-face, quick-action couplings in accordance with this International Standard shall meet or
exceed the performance requirements given in Table 2.

5.2 The operating pressure shall be verified by pressure impulse testing in accordance with ISO 7241-2 for
100 000 cycles in the coupled and uncoupled conditions.

5.3 The rated burst pressure shall be verified by testing in accordance with ISO 7241-2 for one cycle in the
coupled and uncoupled conditions.

5.4 The pressure drop at rated flow shall be verified by testing in accordance with ISO 7241-2.

5.5 The fluid loss per disconnect shall be verified by spillage testing in accordance with ISO 7241-2.

5.6 The surge flow capability shall be verified by surge flow testing in accordance with ISO 7241-2.

5.7 Provisions for locking the coupling in the coupled condition, to reduce the probability of accidental
disconnect, shall be agreed upon between the manufacturer and the user.
