Zusammenfassung:A new device is disclosed for connecting headers, turn-arounds, and the like to membrane support tubes. The device comprises a plastic adapter tube for insertion within a permeable coated tube, having an O-ring seal at its end, and includes a sleeve which snugly fits around the adapter and effects a seal between the adapter and the membrane portion of the tube when pressure is applied from inside the tube through the action of pressure applied in a permeability separation process. In a variation of the invention, a guard is provided for retaining a volume displacement rod within the membrane coated tube.
