Connector Flange Component – Machinery and Equipment Manufacturing

Component Specifications

Definition

The Connector Flange is a critical interface component in injection lance systems, designed to provide a leak-proof, high-pressure connection between the lance body and external piping or equipment. It features standardized bolt patterns, sealing surfaces, and alignment features to ensure proper installation and operational integrity under demanding industrial conditions.

Working Principle

The flange operates by creating a mechanical seal through compression between mating surfaces, typically using gaskets or O-rings, secured by bolts or clamps. It distributes mechanical stress evenly across the connection point while maintaining alignment and preventing fluid leakage under operational pressures and temperatures.

Materials

Typically manufactured from stainless steel (AISI 304/316), carbon steel, or alloy steels; may include surface treatments like plating, coating, or passivation for corrosion resistance.

Technical Parameters

Sealing Method Gasket or O-ring compression
Pressure Rating Up to 3000 psi (207 bar)
Flange Face Type Raised face (RF) or flat face (FF)
Temperature Range -20°C to 400°C
Bolt Circle Diameter Standardized dimensions (e.g., 100mm, 150mm)

Standards

ISO 5211, DIN 2501, ASME B16.5
