Types of sanitary fittings

Sanitary fittings are a type of pipe fittings specifically designed for industries such as pharmaceuticals and food that have high hygiene requirements. These fittings are generally made of stainless steel material to ensure the hygiene and corrosion resistance of the product. There are various types of sanitary fittings, mainly including but not limited to the following:

1、 Classification by product form

Sanitary grade joint: used to connect key components of pipelines, which must have good sealing and corrosion resistance.

Sanitary grade nuts: used to tighten fittings, ensuring their stable connection while meeting hygiene requirements.

Sanitary grade elbow: a pipe fitting that changes the direction of the pipeline, commonly including 90 degree elbow and 45 degree elbow.

Sanitary grade tee: a fitting that connects three pipes and has the function of diverting or merging.

Sanitary grade reducer: used to connect pipes of different diameters and achieve diameter conversion.

2、 Classify by connection method

Socket type sanitary fittings: connected through socket and sealing materials, with a simple structure and convenient installation.

Sanitary grade flange fittings: use flange plates and bolts for fastening connections, suitable for situations that require frequent disassembly and maintenance.

Sanitary grade welded pipe fittings: The pipe fittings are connected to the pipeline by welding, which has the characteristics of high connection strength and good sealing.

3、 Other special fittings

Sanitary grade union: allows for a certain amount of space for movement at the connection point of the pipeline, making it easy to install and maintain.

Sanitary grade clamp: a quick connecting pipe fitting that achieves fastening and sealing through clamps and sealing rings, suitable for situations that require quick connection.

In addition, sanitary fittings also include various valve products such as sanitary diaphragm valves, sanitary ball valves, sanitary butterfly valves, sanitary constant pressure valves, as well as fluid conveying equipment such as sanitary centrifugal pumps. These products together constitute an important component of sanitary grade pipeline systems, ensuring that the fluid meets hygiene requirements during transportation.

Sanitary fittings have a wide range of applications in industries such as pharmaceuticals and food, with a wide variety of types and specifications to meet the needs of different occasions and processes. When selecting and using sanitary fittings, it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as specific process requirements, fluid properties, and usage environment to ensure product quality and safety.
