CO2 related: Hoke 1315G4Y 1300 series

I managed to pick one of these up, but doesn't come with the tube connector. What is the connection size and threading on this metering valve (I think it's NPT, but just want to confirm)?
Item # 1315G4Y, Milli-Mite 1300 Series On CIRCOR Instrumentation - Hoke, Inc.

Also, will this CGA connector work? The nut looks smaller than usual. I am specifically looking for a SS CGA 320, if there are other sources of buying one, please let me know. This is the one I manage to find for a decent price.

Thanks!

The connection size is 1/4 as stated in the link you provided. Yes, that cga nut and nipple will work, I used the same one. I believe it's actually manufactured by Parker.

Thanks for the reply!

I thought that was for the 1/4" tube connections. Thanks for confirming.

You should be able to connect your co2 tubing directly to the output of the needle valve.

The one I got didn't have the tube connector, it's threaded. It is a 1315G4Y, labeled on the body. Is that also 1/4" connection threads?

Oh, you need the nuts and ferrules.

You will need front and rear ferrules for both sides and 2 nuts. They should all be 1/4 but don't hold me to that.

Nlewis, Thanks for the info.

jeffkrol, I did look into it before I created this thread. Doesn't really tell me which parts I need. Unless all 1/4" OD tube connect nuts have the same female connector.

Point was it wasn't NPT.. Next what are you hooking it to?
Normally it goes after the solenoid.. so what is it?
1/8 1/4NPT, Are you going to just put it "in-line" w hose barbs... Going to run 1/4" tubing?
For starters you need the ferrules and nuts for it..

Then whatever adapter you choose..

somewhat normal would be an AM fitting 1/4tube to 1/4NPT
Stainless steel.

Pretty sure.. ;)

Others can verify..
