CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
Branch Outlets are available in carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel. Body material grades include WCB, CF8, and CF8M per ASTM A216/A351. Seat materials include PTFE and RPTFE. The choice depends on the service conditions, such as corrosion resistance and temperature.
The operating pressure range is 1.0 to 1.6 MPa. The operating temperature range is -40 to 120°C. Above 120°C, special seals may be required. Always verify these values for the specific model and application.
Connection types include flanged and butt-weld. Flanged connections allow easy disassembly, while butt-weld connections provide a permanent joint. Standards for flanges and butt-weld ends are ASME B16.5 and B16.25, respectively.
The leakage rate is specified as Class VI per ISO 5208, with a maximum leakage of 0.01 ml/min. This ensures a tight seal under operating conditions. Confirm the leakage class for your specific model.
