Today, we’re going to talk about sanitary pipeline standards. These standards are widely used in industries with high hygiene requirements, such as food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. Here are some common sanitary pipeline standards:
First, we have ISO 2037, an international standard primarily used for stainless steel pipes in the food industry, such as in milk, beverage, and beer production equipment.
Next is the ASME BPE standard, developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers specifically for the biopharmaceutical industry. It places special emphasis on surface finish and sterility to meet the stringent requirements of the biotech and pharmaceutical sectors.
Third, we have DIN 11850, a German sanitary standard that focuses on the food and pharmaceutical industries. This standard is divided into four different parts, each applying to different levels of process and sanitary requirements.
The 3A Standard is an American standard specifically designed for the dairy, food, and pharmaceutical industries. It emphasizes equipment design that facilitates easy cleaning to prevent contamination.
EN 10357 is the European standard, applied to sanitary pipelines in the food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical sectors. It requires high surface finish both inside and outside the pipe to effectively prevent microbial growth.
Different industries may choose different standards depending on their needs. If you have specific requirements, feel free to reach out for more information!
