SANITRX® LPX

Product catalog summary
Overview: The SANITRX® LPX Rupture Disc is a semicircular scored reverse acting rupture disc designed for low-pressure applications in the pharmaceutical, food & beverage, and biotech industries. It fits between standard sanitary ferrules, NA CONNECT® flanges, or SANITRX® fittings and is shipped in sanitary, non-toxic packaging.
Applications: The rupture disc is suitable for use in filters, autoclaves, bioreactors, process vessels, heat exchangers, storage & transport vessels, fermenters, clean steam piping, WFI vessels & piping, CIP & SIP skids and piping, lyophilizers, and mixing, drying, granulating equipment.
Benefits: The disc complies with ASME BPE and USP class VI criteria, featuring a SF1 surface finish, solid metal construction for cleanability, fully traceable materials, and components free of polishing compounds and animal derivatives. It offers lower maintenance costs and increased productivity.
Features: The disc is designed for a minimum of 1,000 cycles from full vacuum to maximum operating pressure, with a 90% maximum recommended operating ratio. It has a non-fragmenting design, precision scoring for optimum cleanability, and includes a flow direction tag for proper orientation. It can operate to full vacuum and is designed for gas/vapor service only. Optional fluoropolymer coating and electropolished surface finishes are available.
Compliance: The rupture disc is ASME Code Section VIII, Division 1 compliant and National Board Certified with KR flow resistance values.
Burst Pressure Ratings: The document provides detailed burst pressure ratings at 72°F (22°C) for different sizes and materials, with specific guidelines for rated burst pressure, manufacturing range, and maximum recommended operating pressure.
Gasket Materials & Temperatures: Various gasket materials are available, including Peroxide Cured Silicone, Platinum Cured Silicone, White and Black VITON®, White and Black EPDM, PTFE, and Steel Reinforced PTFE, each with specified service temperature ranges.
Contact Information: The document provides contact details for Continental Disc Corporation's headquarters in the USA, as well as offices in the Netherlands, China, and India.
