Hi,
Can anyone tell me what type of connector is needed to connect the red tubing on a DigiFlow 6700M?
I've looked on StillDragon store and couldn't find any push connect female NPT 1/2. I saw only male threaded.
Thanks in advance

The 6700m has built in female threads. It will accept a male push connect fitting.
From the lok of this:
Panel 1/2" Digiflow 6710M-44TM Digital Flow Meter count up Gallons GPM 115V cord @ eBay
I see male threads on both ends on the sensor. Am I not looking at the right place? If you have a picture of it, that'd be great :)
Thanks,
I just noticed that I've made a typo in my original question. I meant the 6710m not the 6700m. The one in the link is the one I'm trying to get a hand on it. I'm just trying to figure out how am I going to connect this inline with the existing tubing.
Just get couplings from your local home/hardware mega mount. Talking about cooling water, so plastic, brass, stainless, whatever they have will work.
Little teflon tape to prevent leaks, no problemo!

got it, thanks for the info, didn't think about the coupler at first...
one note on the digiflows, they are somewhat limited in the accuracy range...
The 1/4" one (ebay filterdirect "1/4" NPT Digiflow 6710M Digital Flow Meter count up Gallons GPM 56"cable USA" ) is what I use on my 4"x1M condenser using a danfoss valve to keep exit temp at 140F, and it is about right at .5GPM per element (mostly I use 1-3 elements, so .5-1.5 (it says 0.16 to 2.1 GPM, it will kind of start near .07, and good by .16, but near 2 gpm, it restricts a normal pump)
The 1/2" one (ebay filterdirect "1/2" NPT Digiflow Digital Flow Meter count up total Water Gallons GPM 56"cable" I have on my 8" RC controlled by a Johnson/sestos, it doesn't even read half the time, It states "0.4 to 6.6 GPM", but really needs a good .5 to get it going... I need to be able to flow 2+ gpm to flush the air, so I cannot use the 1/4" one.. I may put in a 1/4" with a 1/2" bypass valve for purging air..
I have never calibrated them, it is about 7000 on my 1-10000 priority list...
if you use recirculating cooling water, the slimy buildup can mess with them, I had the 1/4" one blocked for a few weeks, I used city water pressure to free it up...
