Rubber Materials
In order to obtain the longest possible lifetime for rubber seals it is essential to choose the right quality for the actual duty. Consequently when choosing
rubber quality, the characteristics of the different rubber types should be considered. All product wetted rubber material are in conformity of FDA.
EPDM Rubber (Ethylene Propylene)

EPDM rubber is widely used within the food industry as it is resistant to most products used in this sector. Another advantage is that it may be used to a
recommend max. temperatures of 140°C (244°F). However, there is one essential limitation, EPDM is not resistant to organic and non-organic oils and
fats. The resistance to ozone is excellent.
Actylonitrile Butadiene Rubber, NBR

NBR is the rubber type most frequently used for technical purposes. It is quite resistant to most hydrocarbons, e.g oil, grease and fat. It is sufficiently
resistant to diluted lye and nitric acid and may be used to a recommend max. 95°C (203°F). As NBR is attacked by ozone it may not be exposed to
ultraviolet rays and should thus consequently be stored so that this is avoided.
Silicone Rubber, Q
The most significant quality of silicone rubber is that it can be applied from temperatures below -50°C (-58°F) to approx. + 180°C (356°F) and still
keep its elasticity. The chemical resistance is satisfactory to most products. However, undiluted lye and acids as well as hot water and steam may
destroy silicone rubber. The resistance to ozone is good.
Fluorine Rubber, FPM

FPM is often used when other rubber types are unsuited, especially at high temperatures up to approx. 180°C (356°F). The chemical resistance is good
to most products, however hot water, steam, lye, acid and alcohol should be avoided. The resistance to ozone is good.
Hydrogenated actylonitrileButadiene Rubber, HNBR

Mechanically strong and normally resistant to ozone and strong oxidizers, animal and vegetable fats, nonpolar solvents, oils and lubricants, water and
aqueous solutions. The recommend max. temperature is 130°C (266°F).
Perfluoroalkoxy polymer, PFA

PFA is very similar to PTFE, but opposite to those PFA is thermo plastic and has minimal porosity. PFA has a very high mechanical strength which
makes it a perfect choice when dealing with abbrasive products. The PFA seal offers longer service intervals. The recommend max. temperature
for the PFA seal is 90°C (194°F).
Product and chemical resistance of flexible rubber materials

The information below is intended as an aid in selecting the best rubber quality for an actual application. It is not possible to state any general lifetime
of rubber seals as many factors influence it: chemical attack, temperature, mechanical wear etc. Extreme temperatures, even within the generally
accepted limits, may worsen other kinds of attack and thus reduce the lifetime.
Ratings
1 = Unsuitable.
2 = Limited suitability.
3 = Normal suitability.
4 = High suitability.
- = Not recommended for other reasons.

Filters and strainers
Introduction
The Alfa Laval LKSF Slot Strainer is a filter which separates solid
matter from liquid that flows through it. The impurities are stopped by
the filter element. When the filter is full of particles, it can be cleaned
by removing the clamp and pulling out the filter element.
.
Application
The LKSF Slot Strainer is designed to fulfil basic filtration duties in
hygienic applications across the dairy, food, beverage and brewery
industries to protect equipment and product.
.
Benefits
• Fine filtration
• Easy to install
• Easy to clean
• High durability
• Flexible filter element selection
.
Standard design
The LKSF Slot Strainer consist of a housing in which the strainer
element is fitted centred. There are two types of LKSF Slot Strainers:
.the LKSF-BL with housing in two parts and the LKSF-CL with housing
in three parts for vertical installation.
To allow for quick dismantling for cleaning, the housing is assembled
by means of clamps. The upper clamp ring has a wing nut for manual
operation. The strainer element has direct access to the end cover
with welded handle to facilitate dismantling when cleaning is required.
The strainer element is available from 0.0021 in. to 0.157 in. Various
male parts are also available to attach the strainer to a process line.
.
Working principle
Type LKSF-BL: The product enters from the bottom. The filter element
captures impurities. When the filter is full of particles, it can be cleaned
by removing the clamp and pulling out the filter element. It is also
possible to reverse the flow and flush out the impurities (backflush).
Type LKSF-CL: The product enters the filter from the side. Most of the
impurities collect at the bottom and can be manually emptied during
operation via a valve. Automatic discharge is also possible using
two remote controlled valves at B. The upper valve is open during
operation and the lower is closed. The impurities will collect between
the two valves. Closing the upper valve and opening the lower one will
empty the impurities with minimal product loss.
The filter can be cleaned as LKSF-BL. The degree of filtering can
be altered by changing filter element. Strainer type LKSF-CL must
always be installed vertically. The filtration degree may be immediately
adjusted by changing the strainer element.

ky Alfa Laval LKVF

Introduction
The Alfa Laval LKVF Coarse Strainer is a type of filter used to remove
coarse particles from liquids from 0.039 to 0.118 in.
.
Application
The Alfa Laval LKVF Coarse Strainer is designed to remove coarse
particles from the liquid flow to protect pumps or other sensitive
equipment from damage. It is used on a wide range of applications
across the dairy, food, beverage and brewery industries.
.
Benefits
• Safeguards membrane filtration, pumps and other equipment from
damage
• Easy to install and clean
• High durability
• Flexible filter element selection
.
Standard design
The LKVF Coarse Strainer consists of a housing with inlet and outlet.
Inside the housing, the filter element is fixed to allow the flow to be
forced through it. This element consists of a perforated tube which
. welded to a flange with a handle. This flange fits a ferrule on the
is
casing to which it is clamped.
.
Working principle
The recommended flow direction is to allow the liquid to enter the
inlet (A). The particles strained collect inside the filter element which
facilitates cleaning, especially if the handle points downwards or if
the strainer is installed in a horizontal position. The liquid leaves the
strainer through the side outlet (B).
However, it is possible to allow the liquid to enter the inlet (B) since the
perforated tube is designed to withstand the pressure drop in both
flow directions. The liquid leaves the strainer through the outlet (A). If
side connection (B) is used as the inlet, then the maximum product
pressure is 101.5 psi.

ky Alfa Laval Mainstream® Filter/Strainer

Strainers
Introduction
The Alfa Laval Mainstream® Filter/Strainer removes particles from
process streams with high flow rates, ensuring product quality and
hygiene as well as protecting equipment from clogging, fouling and
corrosion. This reduces the risk of unplanned downtime and prolongs
equipment maintenance intervals.
Versatile and cost-effective, this basket-style filter/strainer with its
free-flow design and side-entry ports features a large surface area and
side-entry port to handle high flow rates with minimal pressure drop. It
is also able to handle a wide range of disposable filter and reusable
strainer media, providing maximum application flexibility.
.
Application
The Mainstream® Filter/Strainer is designed to remove particles from
process streams thereby promoting product quality and hygiene, while
protecting processing equipment. It is widely used across the dairy,
food, beverage, meat and poultry, personal care, and pharmaceutical
industries.
.
Benefits
