Sanitary stainless steel pipe elbows are pipe fittings used to change the direction of the pipe in foods,
dairy products and other sweats with high hygiene standards.
They are usually used for connections at pipe bends so that the pipe can be turned at 90°, 45°, 180° or other angles.
Proper installation and use of stainless steel bend can ensure the normal operation of the piping system and extend the service life of the elbow.
Here are some precautions for installation:
Before installation, the elbow should be carefully inspected for damage and cracks to avoid leakage in the future,
and also to confirm that the size and dimensions of the pipe connections match, mismatch will also be a leakage situation
It is very important to keep the pipe clean to avoid contamination of the fluid,
so before installation, keep the elbow clean and smooth to prevent debris and dust from contaminating the pipe and causing more damage
Stainless steel clamps and washers are required for the connection of quick release elbows.
- There are many choices of clamps, including single-pin clamps, double-pin clamps, high-pressure clamps and so on.
- Washers can choose the material of rubber,EPDM,Silicone,FPM,PTFE,NBR
Connection of the gasket between the joint and the elbow, and then use the clamp to connect them,
the presence of gaskets and clamps will make the connection between the pipeline more tightly.
Regularly check elbows and gaskets for wear and tear, and then replace them in a timely manner.
During installation and use, the effects of temperature and pressure on the elbow should be considered to avoid damage or leakage
