Pressure Relief for Hygienic Applications



Elfab has developed a unique pressure-relief system for use in aseptic and hygienic process conditions. Hygienic Opti-Gard's advanced detection and flexibility offer significant benefits to all those involved in the specification, purchase and operation of pressure-management systems.

Hygienic Opti-Gard features a non-fragmenting, reverse-acting rupture disc with a smooth, uninterrupted surface finish to reduce contamination and maximize steam sterilization (SIP) and clean-in-place (CIP) procedures. To facilitate installation, the system is designed to fit directly between ISO2852 standard food industry couplings and clamp fittings.

With a performance tolerance of only 5% across a wide range of burst pressures and a 95% operating ratio, Opti-Gard offers the highest performance characteristics available for liquid, gas or vapor applications. Hygienic Opti-Gard is supplied with Elfab's industry-leading ATEX-approved Integral Flo-Tel burst-detection device. Integral Flo-Tel is a non-invasive, magnetically-actuated and completely reusable detection system that minimizes process contact and cleaning validation requirements.
