Product Description
A range of pipe and hose couplings in which standard coupling systems have been modified through the addition of coding elements. Coding systems available for; Flange, Cam-action, Screwed and Hygienic couplings.
|
Product Function
To provide a guarantee against accidental pipe or hose misconnection and thus ensure the correct chemical transfer/discharge into the correct port.
Can also be used to provide component identification, e.g. in the build-up of complex pipe systems.
|
Features
Based on conventional industry standard designs enhanced with highly robust coding elements.
The use of these robust mechanical elements provides essential safeguards while maintaining existing practices.
Flange: re-codeable or fixed code versions available.
Cam-action: replaceable Cam levers for cost effective maintenance, compatible with standard commercially available seals.
Hygienic: compatible with standard commercially available clamps and seals.
|
Benefits
Save cost from risk reduction
Save cost from time saved.
Ensure traceability of substance transfer.
Meet environmental protection regulations and liability requirements.
Maintain existing piping and hose work practice.
Enables self build and self check pipe systems.

Materials of Construction
Range of standard and special materials depending on coupling and application: Austenitic (316) stainless steel, Mild steel, Bronze.
Plastics, Hastelloy and other special alloys can be considered.
Seals: standard seal ranges to meet duty.
|
Pressure and Temp Range
The various couplings exploit standard designs and so meet the relevant pressure and temperature standard specifications.
Similarly, standard seals and clamps are used and so various specifications are available.
