DIN11864-3 Flange – NKS
DIN 11864-3 Form A range, Dockweiler – Connection flanges for pharmaceutical fluids
Technical data sheets – DIN11864 flanges
The DIN 11864-3 Form A range is designed for high-purity detachable connections in pharmaceutical, biotechnology and food-processing applications.
It meets the requirements of WFI loops, PW water, USP water, API products and processes requiring clean-in-place (CIP) and sterilise-in-place (SIP) connections.
Connection without compromise
The DIN 11864-3 Form A flange is based on a simple, robust principle: mechanical support is provided by metal-to-metal contact, while sealing is provided by an O-ring housed in a machined groove.
The two functions are separate.
There is no wear from compression or shear, no progressive creep and no loss of sealing performance over time.
The O-ring is available in the material suited to the process fluid:
- EPDM
- FKM
- VMQ (PTFE-coated silicone)
- Gylon
It is the benchmark solution for high-purity networks that run repeated CIP/SIP cycles.
Connection types
| Type | Description |
| Type 1 | Threaded with nose |
| Type 2 | Bolted flange |
| Type 3 | Clamp |
