The wide range of tubes and fittings at Alfa Laval
Bends
Hygienic bends, compliant with standards DIN, EN, ISO, BS, 3A and ASME BPE, control flow direction, minimize resistance and turbulence, and maintain pressure during directional changes. Designed for cleaning in place (CIP), they're easily integrated with other fittings and components in the process line.
Connections
Alfa Laval supplies hygienic connections, designed to meet all major standards including DIN, EN, ISO, BS, 3A and ASME BPE. Each connection comprises a liner, male part, nut, and gasket. Our connections utilize stainless steel, especially types 304L and 316L. Accompanied by hygienic gaskets, Alfa Laval's connections resist cleaning agents and high temperatures.
End caps
Alfa Laval supplies hygienic end caps conforming to standards DIN, EN, ISO, BS, 3A and ASME BPE. Made of non-reactive, non-corrosive stainless steel 304L and 316L, they have a smooth interior, avoiding microbial build-up and supporting Cleaning-in-Place (CIP). Alfa Laval ensures quality, offering digital certifications.
Gaskets
Our gaskets primary function is to provide an effective seal even under varying temperature and pressure conditions. Alfa Laval supply gaskets within the following materials – all in conformity with FDA: EPDM rubber (Ethylene Propylene), Actylonitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR), Silicone rubber (Q), Fluorine rubber (FPM/FKM), Hydrogenated actylonitrileButadiene rubber (HNBR) and Perfluoroalkoxy polymer (PFA).
Pipe holders
Alfa Laval offers pipe holders in grade 1.4301 (304) for its corrosion resistance and sanitary properties. Available with varying shaft lengths and welding attachments, they match our tube and fitting dimensions. Our pipe holders withstand varying pressures, temperatures, and mitigate cross-contamination in multi-product facilities. They also effectively dampen vibrations, ensuring system integrity.
