BFM® Teflex NP Black Connector

Description:

A pure PTFE flexible BFM® connector capable of running continuously at 300ºC (572ºF) temperatures, food grade and can be used across the full pH scale for caustic or acid products.


Documents and Resources:

For in-depth information on the features and installation of the Teflex NP Black Connector, refer to our detailed documents and resources.

A pure PTFE connector capable of running at both low and high temperatures, and can be used across the full pH scale.  Teflex NP Black also offers excellent surface resistivity - 106.


Application

  • Can be used on products across the full pH scale  i.e. caustic and acid products will not effect PTFE.
  • Capable of running at very low (-73ºC/-99ºF) and very high temperatures (continuously operating at 300ºC / 572ºF with short-term surges at 316ºC / 600ºF).

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are the primary features and applications of the Teflex NP Black Connector?

    The Teflex NP Black Connector is made from pure PTFE, making it highly resistant to extreme temperatures and chemical environments. It can continuously operate at temperatures up to 300°C (572°F) and handle short-term surges up to 316°C (600°F). This connector is ideal for handling both caustic and acidic products across the full pH scale, making it suitable for chemical processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and food processing applications where compliance with FDA & EU regulations is required.

  • How does the Teflex NP Black Connector handle electrical charges and why is this important?

    Designed with a surface resistivity of 10^6 ohms, the Teflex NP Black Connector effectively dissipates electrical charges. This feature is crucial in preventing the buildup of static electricity, which can be a significant hazard in environments dealing with flammable substances or fine particulates. The ability to safely dissipate static charges makes the connector suitable for use in potentially explosive or highly static environments.

  • What are the key physical properties of the Teflex NP Black Connector?

    The connector features a multi-layer film construction from pure PTFE, with a wall thickness of approximately 0.23mm. It is black, dust-tight, and non-breathable, with excellent tear strength and durability. The material’s flexibility remains good even at low temperatures (-73°C / -99°F), making it versatile for a variety of demanding applications. These properties ensure that the connector can withstand both mechanical stresses and harsh chemical exposures without degradation.

  • Can the Teflex NP Black Connector be customized to fit specific industrial systems?

    Yes, the Teflex NP Black Connector is available in diameters ranging from 100mm to 500mm and can be fitted with stainless steel rings for enhanced durability up to a diameter of 500mm. It also offers a tool release option for easy installation and maintenance. The connectors can be specified in lengths from 80mm to 1,000mm, allowing for customization to meet specific system requirements. This adaptability, combined with its robust properties, makes the Teflex NP Black a preferred choice for a wide range of industrial applications.
