Foam Sealing Membrane

Product catalog summary
General Description
The foam sealing membrane is a wafer-thin seal designed for easy installation between flanges. It is made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel with a PTFE membrane, intended to seal off storage tank contents from the foam line.
Application Description
This sealing membrane functions as a check valve to prevent tank product from entering the foam line in subsurface systems or as a gas-proof check valve in over-the-top foam systems. It is also a component of the HSSS semi-subsurface foam unit.
Product Features
  • Constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel and PTFE.
  • Fits between DIN and/or ANSI flanges.
  • Low opening pressure in the flow direction.
  • High back pressure resistance in the backflow direction.
  • Self-centering flange ring.
  • PTFE is resistant to most chemicals, except pressurized heated halogen fluorine compounds and alkali metals.
Connections
The membrane fits in pipework flanged according to DIN PN16, ANSI 150 lbs, and mm size. Note that the internal diameter on stainless steel differs from normal steel pipe sizes.
Listings or Approvals
All models are Factory Mutual approved.
Product Data
Models range from SM 100 to SM 300, with varying maximum back pressures and minimum required opening pressures. The fitting flanges are compatible with DIN PN 16 and ANSI 150 lbs standards. Dimensions and weights vary by model, with materials including stainless steel for the body and gate, and PTFE for the membrane.
