Piping Layout Process would be installed to meet with standards:
Pipe layout is designed to reduce pressure loss as low as possible using few elbows, branch tees, etc and also the continuous slope is provided for correct drainability.
Dead pockets/blind ends are not allowed.
For horizontal pipelines eccentric reducers are used to change pipe diameter to avoid undrainable pockets. For vertical pipes use of concentric reducer is allowed. Change of pipe diameter is not allowed without the use of proper sanitary reducers.
For pipe expansion due to temperature changes inserting a lyre or an expansion joint. Stainless steel expands by more than 1 mm per meter per 100°C heat increase.
A few features are:
Reduces the risk of gasket damage, preventing the possibility of product contamination either by gasket cracking or by gasket intrusion on the flow path.
Limits the clamp pressure through wingnut torque sensing the sealing pressure applied over the sanitary gasket.
Lower maintenance costs.
Easy removal and replacement.
Match to all existing clamp gaskets and unions diameters.
Keyless clamp fitting. To Increase system cleanability
