Stainless Steel Sterile Flange
Product Description
Product Overview
Stainless Steel Sterile Flanges are meticulously crafted connection components, engineered to perfection for hygienic fluid transfer systems where absolute cleanliness and microbial control are paramount. These flanges are indispensable in sectors such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, food & beverage, dairy, cosmetics, and fine chemicals, where adherence to CIP (Clean-in-Place) and SIP (Sterilize-in-Place) protocols is vital. They expertly ensure smooth, crevice-free, and effortlessly cleanable fluid pathways, safeguarding product purity and maintaining process integrity.
Key Features & Benefits
1. Hygienic Design
- Mirror-Polished Surfaces: These flanges boast internal surfaces polished to ultra-low roughness (Ra ≤ 0.8 μm), effectively preventing microbial adhesion and residue buildup.
- Zero Dead-Leg Design: Flawlessly aligns with pipes and gaskets (per DIN 11866, ISO 2852, SMS 1145, RJ standards), eradicating stagnation zones for optimal flow.
- Integrated Gasket System: Sterile-grade gaskets, such as PTFE-encapsulated silicone/EPDM, are recessed into flange grooves to eliminate product contact.
2. Premium Material Construction
- Grade 316L/304L Stainless Steel: Exhibits superior corrosion resistance, high-temperature tolerance (up to 250°C), and aligns with FDA/EC1935 compliance for product contact.
- Electropolishing Option: Provides enhanced passivation, ensuring maximum cleanability and longevity.
3. Reliable Sterile Sealing
- Tri-Clamp/SMS/RJT Connections: These allow for quick installation with clamps or threaded unions, ensuring leak-proof sealing while facilitating rapid disassembly for cleaning.
- Uniform Compression: Guarantees even gasket loading to prevent deformation, ensuring consistent SIP/CIP performance.
4.CIP/SIP Compatibility
- Capable of withstanding aggressive cleaning agents (acids/alkalis) and steam sterilization (≥121°C, 15+ PSI).
- Its smooth internal geometry ensures comprehensive coverage by cleaning and sterilizing agents.
5. Global Standard Compliance
- Compliant with DIN 11866, ISO 2852, SMS 1145, 3-A Sanitary Standards, and EHEDG guidelines.
- Available in sizes ranging from DN 15-150 (½"-6") and multiple pressure ratings.
Typical Applications
- Pharma/Biotech: Integral to fermenters, bioreactors, purification skids, and filling lines.
- Food & Beverage: Essential for dairy processing, juice/beer pipelines, and sauce transfer.
- Cosmetics: Perfect for emulsion, serum, and perfume manufacturing processes.
- Fine Chemicals: Ideal for high-purity solvent distribution.
Summary
Stainless Steel Sterile Flanges offer exceptional hygienic performance for critical processes. By uniting advanced metallurgy, dead-leg-free geometry, and standardized connections, these flanges significantly reduce contamination risks while supporting efficient maintenance. They are perfectly suited for systems requiring zero product retention and validated sterility.
