Camlock A-Type Stainless Steel Cam-Lock Coupling Product Introduction

Product Overview

The Camlock A-type stainless steel cam-lock coupling is an efficient and reliable pipeline connection device that combines a cam-lock mechanism with stainless steel material, specifically designed for rapid connection and disconnection. It allows for tool-free operation, significantly enhancing work efficiency while offering corrosion resistance, high-temperature resistance, and vacuum resistance. This coupling is widely used in industries with stringent hygiene and safety requirements, such as food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and petroleum.

Core Advantages

Rapid Connection and Disconnection

• Easy Operation: Achieves instant connection or separation by flipping the cam handle, suitable for scenarios requiring frequent pipeline or equipment replacement.

• Dual-Handle Design: Some models, such as the DELOX CM series, feature a dual-handle structure to further simplify the operation process and enhance safety.

• Safety Locking: Equipped with safety pins or locking mechanisms to prevent accidental opening of the cam arms and avoid disconnection risks.

Corrosion and High-Temperature Resistance

• Stainless Steel Material: The main body is made of 304 or 316 stainless steel. The 316 model, enriched with molybdenum, offers superior resistance to chloride corrosion, making it suitable for marine environments or the chemical industry.

• Temperature Range: Can withstand extreme temperatures from -60°C to +230°C, meeting the needs of high-temperature steam or low-temperature liquid transmission.

• Vacuum Resistance: Supports full vacuum conditions, ensuring stable operation under negative pressure.

Sanitary Structure and Sealing Performance

• Surface Treatment: The surface is smooth and flat, complying with FDA and USP certifications to avoid media residue and reduce contamination risks.

• Sealing Material: Equipped with food-grade sealing rings (such as PTFE, FEP, PFA) to ensure sealing performance while meeting hygiene standards.

• Antistatic Options: Provides conductive materials (PFA/FEP/PTFE) suitable for transmitting flammable and explosive media.

Performance Parameters

Working Pressure

• Conventional Models: 16 bar (250 psi), with specific pressure ratings varying by size and material.

• Special Designs: For example, anti-splash models have a maximum pressure of 250 psi for 1-2 inch sizes and 150 psi for 3-4 inch sizes.

Size Range

• Standard Sizes: From 1/2 inch to 8 inches, covering most industrial application needs.

• Custom Options: Supports custom non-standard sizes to adapt to special working conditions.

Applicable Media

• Liquids: Water, oil products, chemicals, food ingredients, beverages, etc.

• Gases: While compressed gases (such as steam and air) should generally be avoided, some models support low-pressure gas transmission.

• Special Media: Resistant to strongly corrosive chemicals, such as acid and alkali solutions.

Application Areas

Food and Pharmaceutical Industries

• Transmits milk, fruit juices, pharmaceutical liquids, etc., meeting sanitary requirements and preventing contamination.

Chemical Industry

• Conveys corrosive chemicals, such as acid, alkali, and salt solutions, with the 316 stainless steel model offering superior corrosion resistance.
