BFM® Corner Connector 060ES

Description:

A uniquely shaped connector made of pressure-resistant, ether-based thermoplastic polyurethane alloy with an internal polyester scrim. Features a 110° bend to aid the drainage of CIP fluid from your process equipment.


Documents and Resources:

For in-depth information on the features and installation of the Corner Connector 060ES, refer to our detailed documents and resources.

This Corner Connector is made from 060ES, a clear ether-based thermoplastic polyurethane alloy with an internal polyester scrim, a tapered infeed end, 110º angled bend and straight drain output end.


It is designed to redirect the clean-in-place (CIP) wash fluid flowing through your process ensuring that your equipment stays dry and your product is free from chemicals used to clean your process machinery. 


Application

  • CIP (Clean-In-Place) wash processes to replace traditional steel tun-dish and swiveling pipework.
  • Made from pressure-resistant Seeflex 060ES so ideal for high head-pressure CIP applications.
  • Ideal for under compact machinery (i.e. sifter/sieve) where product needs to be redirected into other equipment where there is limited space.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are the primary functions and applications of the Corner Connector 060ES?

    The Corner Connector 060ES is specially designed for clean-in-place (CIP) wash processes, replacing traditional steel tun-dish and swiveling pipework. It features a 110° bend to facilitate the drainage of CIP fluid efficiently, making it ideal for use under compact machinery such as sifters and sieves where space is limited and there is a need to redirect flow smoothly around bends. The pressure-resistant properties of Seeflex 060ES make it particularly suitable for high head-pressure CIP applications.

  • How does the design of the Corner Connector 060ES enhance system cleanliness and efficiency?

    Made from an ether-based thermoplastic polyurethane alloy with an internally bonded polyester scrim, the Corner Connector 060ES maintains a semi-transparent appearance for visual monitoring of fluid flow. This unique material combination offers enhanced pressure resistance and durability, ensuring that the connector can handle high-pressure wash cycles without failure, thus maintaining the integrity and hygiene of the processing environment.

  • What are the key physical properties of the Corner Connector 060ES?

    The Corner Connector 060ES boasts a robust construction with a wall thickness of 1.3mm, ensuring it is dust tight and capable of withstanding operational pressures up to 1.7 bar (24 PSI). It has a maximum operating temperature range of -25 to 120°C (-13 to 248°F), with a surge temperature capability up to 140°C (284°F). These properties, combined with its excellent tear strength and ultimate elongation, make it highly resilient in demanding industrial conditions.

  • What certifications does the Corner Connector 060ES hold, and why are they important?

    This connector is compliant with FDA 21 CFR 177.1680 & 177.2600 and USDA standards, making it suitable for use in the food and pharmaceutical industries where direct contact with food or sensitive products occurs. It is also 3A certified, ensuring it meets sanitary standards necessary for dairy and other food-related industries. Furthermore, it is EU approved and Atex Certified for use in dust explosion hazardous areas, providing an added layer of safety and compliance essential for industries operating under strict regulatory conditions.
