Looking for Vertex Puratek 100 RO/DI Parts

Thanks for the replies!
Is there a trick to getting out those push connectors? I tried pulling pretty hard and they won't budge. I've never seen or worked with these fittings before.

I managed to get the broken piece out the ro cap by sliding a drill bit in with a snug fit and then running it under hot water for a few minutes. Twisted it out pretty easy with less chance of messing up the threads.

Now to track down a fitting.

The fittings are simple, you just have to push the "ring" or "collar" that is around the fitting in and that releases the grip on the tubing. make sure that if you do force the tube out of the connection by pulling on it very hard without pushing this collar or ring in that you cut the damaged part of the hose off and start fresh when re-connecting otherwise you will have a high risk of leaking because of the damage brought on by not removing the hose properly from the fitting.

As for removing the cap on the RO canister I do as others have stated above and simply remove the hose and just unscrew the cap quick and simple.

remove the blue locking clip, push the hose into the fitting then slide the white collar up into the fitting to release the line. while holding the collar in pull the line out.
