Here is my setup with the plate chiller (it is much like the one pictured here - https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/plate-chiller-w-thermometer-311479/ but with some different garden fittings) -
Water In: Garden Hose Fitting (shipped with the Plate Chiller) -> Gooseneck Shutoff -> Male Quick-Connect (Female Quick-Connect hooked up to garden hose)
Water Out: Spare 1/2" Female NPT to Barb (I had this laying around from my brewstand fittings but the Hose Barbs shipped with the Plate Chiller would work as well) -> Spare Siphon Tubing
Wort In: Camlock Type A
Wort Out: Camlock Type A (thermocouple attaches to this)
Thermocouple: Camlock Type B -> 1/2" NPT Tee -> Thermometer -> Camlock Type F
