Sanitary Stainless Steel Welded Rotary Cleaning Ball for CIP Systems
Clamp Butterfly Valve comes with a pull-trigger locking mechanism to control process flow.
Why Engineers Specify This Item
- Tri-clamp connections allow for easy field disassembly for clean-in-place processes.
- This product comes standard in 316L stainless steel alloy.
- We recommend clamp gaskets and our single-pin heavy duty clamp in order to safely connect this product to the rest of your system.
- Butterfly Valve Operating Manua l Tri-Clamp Butterfly Valve Part
What It Prevents
- Shadowed areas behind agitator shafts and baffles that a fixed ball never reaches
- CIP cycles run longer and hotter than necessary to compensate for poor coverage
- Devices sized for a flow rate the CIP pump cannot actually deliver

How It Compares
Compared with Sanitary Manways
Specify the Sanitary Stainless Steel Welded Rotary Cleaning Ball for CIP Systems where the duty is what this category is built for: fixed and rotating CIP devices that put cleaning solution on every internal surface of a tank. Move to sanitary manways instead where the requirement is round, square, oval and pressure manways that give safe access into a tank and still hold the vessel rating.
Compared with Sanitary Sight Glasses
Specify the Sanitary Stainless Steel Welded Rotary Cleaning Ball for CIP Systems where the duty is what this category is built for: fixed and rotating CIP devices that put cleaning solution on every internal surface of a tank. Move to sanitary sight glasses instead where the requirement is inline and tank mounted sight glasses so operators can see the product without breaking into the line.
Compared with A general industrial equivalent
An industrial-grade part of the same nominal size is usually cheaper and carries no declared hygienic surface finish, no crevice-free joint geometry and no material certificate. On a product contact line that difference shows up at the first swab test, not on the purchase order.
Installing and Living With It
Bring the two ferrule faces square before closing the clamp. Fit the gasket dry and seated in the groove, then tighten the clamp evenly; overtightening extrudes the gasket into the bore.
Record the standard, size, material and seal material fitted, so the replacement ordered in two years matches what is installed today.
