Description

A DIN 11851 Coupling Silicone Seal is an essential component in fluid handling systems, particularly in industries such as food and beverage, dairy, and pharmaceuticals, where maintaining sanitary and secure connections is critical. This seal is designed to fit within the DIN 11851 coupling system, ensuring a tight, leak-proof connection between the male and female coupling components.

Made from high-quality silicone, the seal offers excellent flexibility, durability, and resistance to a wide range of temperatures. Silicone is particularly valued in sanitary applications because of its non-reactive nature, making it safe for use with food, beverages, and other sensitive fluids. Its ability to withstand extreme temperatures, both hot and cold, ensures that it remains effective even after repeated sterilization and cleaning cycles.

The primary function of the DIN 11851 Silicone Seal is to create a secure barrier that prevents fluids from leaking at the connection point. When the coupling is tightened, the silicone seal compresses, forming a tight seal that helps maintain the integrity of the fluid transfer system and prevents contamination. This is crucial in industries where product purity and hygiene are of utmost importance.

The seal is designed to fit precisely within the groove of the DIN 11851 coupling, ensuring it stays in place during operation. Its smooth surface helps to minimize areas where bacteria or other contaminants could accumulate, making it easier to clean and maintain high sanitary standards.

Features & Benefits

  • Silicone Material: The seal is made from high-quality silicone, known for its excellent flexibility, temperature resistance, and chemical inertness. Silicone is particularly favored in applications where food-grade compliance and non-reactivity are essential, such as in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and dairy industries.
  • Temperature Resistance: Silicone seals are capable of withstanding a wide range of temperatures, from very low to very high, making them suitable for various processing environments where thermal stability is required, such as in cooking processes or cold storage.
  • Chemical and Biological Resistance: Silicone is highly resistant to many chemicals and does not support microbial growth, making these seals ideal for sanitary applications where avoiding contamination is critical. This resistance also means the seals will not degrade or leach harmful substances into the product.
  • Compliance with DIN 11851 Standards: Designed to fit seamlessly with DIN 11851 couplings, these silicone seals ensure a tight and leak-proof fit within standardized sanitary fittings widely used in European sanitary processes. The compliance helps maintain system integrity and prevents leaks that could lead to contamination or product loss.

Application

DIN 11851 fittings, known for their hygienic design and secure sealing capabilities, are specifically crafted for use in industries where sanitary conditions are crucial. These fittings feature a union that consists of a round slotted nut, a male part, a liner, and a seal, which are standardized according to German DIN standards.

  • Food and Beverage Industry: DIN 11851 fittings are extensively used in food processing and beverage production facilities for connecting piping and equipment. They facilitate the sanitary transfer of edible products like dairy, juices, sauces, and other liquid foods.
  • Dairy Industry: These fittings are integral in dairy processing plants, used in systems handling milk, cream, and other dairy products to ensure hygienic conditions and prevent contamination during processing and transfer.
  • Brewing Industry: In breweries, DIN 11851 fittings are employed for connecting stainless steel pipes and hoses used in brewing, fermentation, and bottling processes. Their hygienic design is crucial for maintaining the quality and purity of beer.
  • Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: DIN 11851 fittings are used in pharmaceutical production, particularly in processes that require sterile conditions, such as in the manufacturing of medicines, vaccines, and other sensitive pharmaceutical products.
  • Wine Production: In the wine industry, DIN 11851 fittings are used in grape processing, fermentation tanks, and wine transfer lines, where their ability to maintain a clean and secure environment helps preserve the taste and quality of the wine.
