Description
Prevost CSM Metal Safety Quick Female Coupler - ISO 6150 C Profile
Prevost CSM Metal Safety Quick Female Couplers provide a rugged, safety-focused compressed-air connection for professional pneumatic systems using the ISO 6150 C profile. This listing combines 6 mm, 8 mm, and 11 mm internal passage sizes with multiple female NPT inlet connections, allowing the required coupling capacity and threaded connection to be selected independently.
The CSM safety system uses an anti-whiplash two-stage disconnection process. During release, the coupling first automatically decompresses the downstream hose and then safely disconnects the plug. The metal construction is designed to resist abrasion, shock, crushing, vibration, and corrosion for dependable service in demanding compressed-air applications.

CSM Two-Stage Anti-Whiplash Safety System
Prevost designed the CSM coupling with an anti-whiplash safety device that separates decompression from final disconnection.
- Stage 1: Automatic decompression of the downstream hose.
- Stage 2: Safe disconnection of the coupling.
- Helps prevent a pressurized hose from moving violently during disconnection.
- Provides an intuitive connection and disconnection process.
- Flexible automated mechanism is designed for reliable repeated operation.
Heavy-Duty Metal Construction
Stainless-Steel Body
The CSM coupling body is manufactured from 17% chrome stainless steel, providing a durable metal housing for professional compressed-air applications.
- Resistant to abrasion
- Resistant to shock
- Resistant to crushing
- Resistant to vibration
- Resistant to corrosion
One-Piece Lock
The locking mechanism uses a 13% chrome stainless-steel one-piece lock. Combined with the profiled valve and nitrile seal, the design supports dependable connection integrity and long service life.
Choose the Correct Passage Size
6 mm Passage - CSM 06
The 6 mm CSM coupling family provides a published flow rate of 833 l/min at 6 bar with a 0.6 bar pressure drop.
- Compact CSM coupling family
- 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" female NPT options
- Select the mating plug according to the ISO C profile and passage family
8 mm Passage - CSM 08
The 8 mm CSM coupling family provides a published flow rate of 2,120 l/min at 6 bar with a 0.6 bar pressure drop.
- Higher airflow than the 6 mm family
- 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" female NPT options
- Suitable for higher-demand pneumatic equipment
11 mm Passage - CSM 11
The 11 mm CSM coupling family provides a published flow rate of 4,120 l/min at 6 bar with a 0.6 bar pressure drop.
- Largest passage included in this listing
- 3/8", 1/2", and 3/4" female NPT options
- Designed for high-air-demand pneumatic applications
Understanding Passage Size vs. Female NPT Size
The coupling passage and female NPT inlet size are separate specifications.
The passage determines the internal airflow path and quick-connect family. The female NPT size determines how the coupling connects to the compressed-air piping, hose fitting, manifold, regulator, or other threaded component.
- CSM 06 models use a 6 mm internal passage.
- CSM 08 models use an 8 mm internal passage.
- CSM 11 models use an 11 mm internal passage.
- The female NPT inlet does not determine quick-connect plug compatibility.
- Always verify both the passage/profile family and female thread size before ordering.
Female NPT Connection Options
1/4" Female NPT
Available with the CSM 06 and CSM 08 passage families for systems using a 1/4" male NPT supply connection.
3/8" Female NPT
Available across the CSM 06, CSM 08, and CSM 11 passage families.
1/2" & 3/4" Female NPT
1/2" female NPT is available across all three passage families. The CSM 11 family also includes a 3/4" female NPT configuration.
Sealing & Pneumatic Efficiency
Profiled Valve
The CSM system uses a profiled valve as part of the internal sealing arrangement.
Nitrile Seal
A nitrile seal helps maintain connection tightness during compressed-air operation.
Efficient Airflow
Prevost identifies excellent airflow as a contributor to pneumatic-system and tool efficiency, with passage capacity increasing across the 6 mm, 8 mm, and 11 mm families.
Flow Capacity by Passage
| 6 mm Passage | 833 l/min at 6 bar - ΔP 0.6 bar |
|---|---|
| 8 mm Passage | 2,120 l/min at 6 bar - ΔP 0.6 bar |
| 11 mm Passage | 4,120 l/min at 6 bar - ΔP 0.6 bar |

Installation & Safety Guidance
- Depressurize the compressed-air system before installing, removing, or servicing threaded components.
- Verify the required ISO C profile and passage family before connecting pneumatic equipment.
- Confirm that the selected female NPT connection matches the system fitting.
- Use thread-sealing materials and installation practices suitable for compressed-air NPT service.
- Do not select the coupling based only on female thread size.
- Verify the passage provides adequate airflow for the connected pneumatic equipment.
- Inspect the coupling and mating plug periodically for wear, damage, contamination, corrosion, or leakage.
- Replace damaged or excessively worn components.
- Compressed-air components should be installed and serviced by qualified personnel.

Frequently Asked Questions
What profile do these CSM couplers use?

What female NPT sizes are available?
Depending on the passage family, this listing includes 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", and 3/4" female NPT inlet connections.
How does the CSM safety mechanism work?
The CSM anti-whiplash system operates in two stages. First, the downstream hose is automatically decompressed. The coupling is then safely disconnected.
What is the CSM coupling body made from?
Prevost specifies a 17% chrome stainless-steel body.
What is the locking mechanism made from?
Prevost specifies a one-piece lock manufactured from 13% chrome stainless steel.
What type of seal is used?
