Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes BFM fittings, which allow for the safe and tool-free replacement of fittings in under 40 seconds. These fittings are designed to be perfectly waterproof, hygienic, and free of dead zones, making them ideal for food and pharmaceutical processes.
Advantages:
  • Waterproof and hygienic design with no dead zones.
  • Made from food-grade Polyurethane, with other materials available upon request.
  • Easy replacement process.
  • Available in diameters ranging from 100 to 650 mm.
  • Flexible to accommodate various needs.
Design Benefits: Traditional flexible sleeves with hose clamps create product retention zones, which can be problematic in sensitive processes. The BFM design eliminates these zones, ensuring a clean and safe operation. The fittings are tight enough to contain fine powders, maintaining a clean production environment and reducing the risk of hazardous areas. They also withstand pressure shocks from dust explosions.
Installation: Each tubing diameter corresponds to a specific sleeve size, simplifying maintenance by eliminating the need for verification or adaptation. The flexible connection includes two rigid tubes (stainless steel or steel) with patented profiles for the cuff, and a flexible cuff with spring steel strips molded into the elastomer at both ends.
Dimensions: The document provides a table of internal diameters (D) and lengths (LM) for various sizes, ranging from 100 mm to 650 mm in diameter, with lengths primarily at 150 mm or 200 mm.
Conclusion: BFM fittings offer a clean, efficient, and safe solution for industrial processes, particularly in the food and pharmaceutical sectors, with easy and fast installation.

BFM FITTINGS-1

+ Advantages • Perfectly waterproof • Hygienic and no dead zones • Food grade Polyurethane (other materials on request) • Easy to replace • Diameters from 100 to 650 mm Flexible to fit all your needs On traditional flexible sleeves mounted with hose clamps, a product retention zone is created between the flexible connection and the rigid tubing on which the hose clamp rests. This can be critical in food and pharmaceutical processes. The BFM design prevents the emergence of this dead zone. Clean, easy and safe to operate The fitting is tight even on very fine powders. This keeps your production environment clean and limits the risk of creating hazardous areas. The attachment of the flexible sleeve resists the pressure shocks observed during a dust explosion. Each tubing diameter corresponds to a single sleeve size. This makes it very easy for maintenance teams to supply the right sleeve without having to go through a prior verification or adaptation phase on the industrial installation. The flexible connection consists of: • 2 rigid tubes (in stainless steel or steel) to be welded to the two parts of the process to receive the soft cuff. These tubings are equipped with original, patented profiles, adapted to the cuff. • 1 flexible cuff with spring steel strips molded into the elastomer of the cuff at both ends.
