Silicone Dust Caps
Application of Silicone Dust Caps in
'Powder Containment'
Powder containment is a major issue in the process industries, the Uni-Cap has been designed to help manufacturers comply with the stringent standards required.
The Uni-Cap is hygienically moulded in one piece from FDA compliant pure silicone rubber, offering a durable easy-clean solution to containment of powder during transfer.
The Uni-Cap, Dust Cap Seal has a high-quality finish and is ideal for use where a fast temporary dust-proof connection is required for powder transfer.
Standard material is translucent silicone, but special colours can be supplied subject to quantity and colour request. A corresponding range of stainless steel support rings is also available, manufactured from 316L stainless steel; various surface finishes can be provided.
- Profile
Manufactured using FDA compliant silicone, The Uni-Cap, Dust Cap Seal, is ideal for use in pharmaceutical, chemical and cosmetic or food applications.
The dust caps help to contain powder and create a safer working environment, ensuring operators are fully protected during the transfer stage of powder processing.
By integrating the cap itself with stainless steel support rings, the Uni-Cap system provides a very simple and cost effective way of creating a ‘closed-system’.
In addition, the hygienic one-piece moulding can be easily cut for spigot connections.
After transfer of materials, the Tri-Cover entry can be capped with a standard stainless steel 'blank-cap' or re-connected for further processing operations.
The Uni-Cap is fully washable and can withstand temperatures of up to 200C making it suitable for hand-washing, washing machine or autoclave.
