Each connector/valve assembly has a first valve housing with a tubing connector adapted to operably engage an inlet or outlet end of the tubing, and a first connector. The connector/valve assembly further includes a first valve element for controlling fluid flow from the tubing connector, through the first valve housing, to the first connector. A second valve housing having a unit connector is adapted to operably engage the cooling unit, and a second connector is adapted to operably engage the first connector of the first valve housing. A second valve element is provided for controlling fluid flow from the second connector, through the second valve housing, to the second connector.
