Stainless Steel Sterile Flange
Product Description
Product Overview
Engineered to perfection, Stainless Steel Sterile Flanges are pivotal components meticulously crafted for hygienic fluid transfer systems that demand absolute cleanliness and superior microbial control. These flanges are indispensable across various sectors such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, food & beverage, dairy, cosmetics, and fine chemicals. In environments where CIP (Clean-in-Place) and SIP (Sterilize-in-Place) protocols are non-negotiable, these flanges ensure seamless, crevice-free, and effortlessly cleanable fluid pathways, thus maintaining unparalleled product purity and process integrity.
Key Features & Benefits
1. Hygienic Design
- Mirror-Polished Surfaces: Achieving ultra-low roughness levels (Ra ≤ 0.8 μm), the internal surfaces are precisely polished to prevent any microbial adhesion and residue buildup, ensuring a pristine environment.
- Zero Dead-Leg Design: Flawless alignment with pipes and gaskets, complying with standards like DIN 11866, ISO 2852, and SMS 1145, eradicates stagnation zones for optimal fluid dynamics.
- Integrated Gasket System: Sterile-grade gaskets such as PTFE-encapsulated silicone or EPDM are carefully recessed into flange grooves, ensuring they remain free from product contact.
2. Premium Material Construction
- Grade 316L/304L Stainless Steel: Exhibits exceptional corrosion resistance and high-temperature endurance (up to 250°C), meeting FDA/EC1935 standards for safe product contact.
- Electropolishing Option: Offers enhanced passivation, elevating the cleanability to its peak.
3. Reliable Sterile Sealing
- Tri-Clamp/SMS/RJT Connections: Designed for quick-installation, these clamps or threaded unions guarantee leak-proof seals, enabling swift disassembly for thorough cleaning.
- Uniform Compression: Ensures even gasket loading, preventing deformation and maintaining consistent CIP/SIP performance.
4. CIP/SIP Compatibility
- Robust against aggressive cleaning agents like acids and alkalis, and withstands steam sterilization (≥121°C, 15+ PSI).
- The smooth internal geometry assures complete coverage by cleaning and sterilizing agents, leaving no stone unturned.
5. Global Standard Compliance
- Compliant with DIN 11866, ISO 2852, SMS 1145, 3-A Sanitary Standards, and EHEDG guidelines, ensuring global applicability.
- Available in an extensive range of sizes from DN 15-150 (½"-6") and various pressure ratings for versatile applications.
Typical Applications
- Pharmaceuticals and Biotech: Essential for fermenters, bioreactors, purification skids, and filling lines.
- Food & Beverage: Perfect for dairy processing, juice and beer pipelines, and sauce transfer.
- Cosmetics: Integral to emulsion, serum, and perfume manufacturing processes.
- Fine Chemicals: Ideal for high-purity solvent distribution systems.
Summary
Stainless Steel Sterile Flanges stand as the epitome of hygienic performance, crafted to perfection for critical processes. By fusing advanced metallurgy, dead-leg-free geometry, and adherence to standardized connections, these flanges significantly reduce contamination risks, all while facilitating effortless maintenance. They are quintessential for systems that demand zero product retention and validated sterility.
