INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Seal Kit

A precision seal kit for beverage filling nozzles that prevents leaks and maintains hygiene during liquid transfer.

Component Specifications

Definition
A specialized assembly of sealing components designed for beverage filling nozzle assemblies, ensuring leak-free operation, maintaining product integrity, and preventing contamination in high-speed filling environments. It typically includes multiple seals that work together to isolate different fluid paths and pressure zones.
Working Principle
Creates multiple barrier seals between stationary and moving parts of the nozzle assembly using elastic deformation and compression to prevent fluid escape, maintain pressure differentials, and exclude contaminants.
Materials
FDA-approved materials: Primary seals - FKM (Viton) or EPDM for chemical resistance; Secondary seals - Silicone or Nitrile (NBR) for flexibility; Backup rings - PTFE or Polyurethane; Gaskets - Food-grade rubber compounds.
Technical Parameters
  • Hardness 70-90 Shore A
  • Surface Finish Ra ≤ 0.8 μm on sealing surfaces
  • Life Expectancy 1-2 million cycles
  • Pressure Rating 0-10 bar
  • Temperature Range -20°C to 150°C
  • Chemical Compatibility Acids, alkalis, alcohols, carbonated beverages
Standards
ISO 9001, ISO 22000, DIN 11864, FDA 21 CFR 177.2600

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should seal kits be replaced in beverage filling nozzles?

Typically every 6-12 months or after 1-2 million cycles, depending on operating conditions, cleaning chemicals used, and product characteristics.

Can the same seal kit be used for different beverage types?

No, different beverages require specific material compatibility. Carbonated drinks need different seals than acidic juices or alcoholic beverages.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
