NON METALLIC
SANITARY CLAMP
Picture of Non Metallic Clamp
Sanitary Ferrule Clamp
• Constructed of Non-Metallic fiberglass reinforced nylon.
• Accepts sanitary ferrules according to BS 4825, ISO 2852 and Tri-Clover® Standards.
• Will not cause distortion in non-metallic ferrules, as will stainless    steel clamps during high operating temperatures and sterilization. Less weight than stainless steel clamps.
• Use where reduction of weight and reduced thermal conductivity transfer is of importance.
• Use on non-metallic to non-
metallic, nonmetallic to metallic and metallic to metallic sanitary mechanical joints.  
Tests and Operating Capability
• For use in GMP Manufacturing
• Gamma stable to 25-40 kGy
• Maximum irradiaton dosage is 6 mega rads, this dosage is cumulative. Expect to see discoloration and the material to become brittle.
•Autoclave Sterilize to 275°F (135°C) After autoclave clamp may need to be retorqued
•Maximum recommended
 installation torque specification is 2nm.
• Recommended working pressure, 150 p.s.i. @ 70°F
• PTFE gaskets are not to be used in conjuction with the non metallic clamp. Acceptable elastomers are: Tuf-Flex®, Silicone, FKM, EPDM.
