There's often significant movement, pressure, vacuum or high temperature involved in bulk product processing, so finding a flexible connector system that will perform in every application and operating condition can be difficult.
The unique BFM® fitting system design and wide range of connector materials offer solutions to virtually any flexible connector application challenge.
Zero dust leakage and no crevices to collect product so no build-up or contamination risk.
Snap-fit system means can be replaced in less than 30 seconds - the fastest in the market.
Strong, static dissipative materials, no leakage and unique design reduces explosion risk.
Less clean-ups and replacements plus faster, easier changeovers mean more productivity.
Superior materials and design mean connectors are stronger and last much longer.
100% seal keeps your product inside your process so there's less wastage.
Simplifies your inventory management and replacement flexible connector stock process.
Safer to fit and provides a healthier environment for staff by keeping product in the right places.
Wide range of products conform to important global standards like 3A, FDA, EC and ATEX.
The constant movement on sifters puts stress on flexible connections between equipment, and often causes problems like poor sealing, leaks and failures.
Metal Detector applications can be a challenging environment for traditional clamped connector systems because steel cannot be in near proximity to the detector.
Proper cleaning of your pipes and in-line fittings is important during CIP, and having a flexible connector that can handle the chemicals and won't leak is essential.
If you operate under pressure, keeping your product inside your process brings all sorts of challenges, usually around dust control and connector failure.
Processors often operate equipment under negative pressure to avoid leaking product out of machinery, but you need to ensure your connectors seal properly too.
Static dissipative connectors like the BFM® fitting range will help reduce the chance of spark discharges occurring that can potentially ignite combustible dust explosions.
Maintaining strict clean-room operating conditions can be challenging when dealing with fine pharmaceutical powders. That's why BFM® fitting is the perfect choice.

Health and safety is paramount for global chemicals manufacturer AkzoNobel at its Elotex plant in Geleen, the Netherlands, but the construction additives produced at this plant involve fine, abrasive powders which were proving hard to contain. The resultant dust leakage posed a real explosion risk. See how they solved this challenge with BFM®.
