Conical silicone nozzle (Food/FDA)
Product description
Conical silicone nozzle – White Line is a conical nozzle for industrial vacuum cleaning systems, manufactured from transparent silicone. The nozzle is designed for cleaning tasks in food and pharmaceutical production environments where materials suitable for food contact, easy cleaning and high temperature resistance are required.
The conical design with a tapered end makes the nozzle ideal for precise and efficient collection of both fine and larger particles such as powders, granulates, crumbs and solid process residues.
The nozzle has a total length of 195 mm, providing good reach and control during cleaning operations.
What can the product be used for
- Vacuum cleaning of food residues and process materials
- Collection of powders, granulates, crumbs and pellets
- Cleaning in production areas with high hygiene requirements
Industries using the product
- Food industry
- Pharmaceutical industry
- Process industries with a focus on hygiene and temperature resistance
Technical note
The White Line variant is manufactured from transparent silicone based on silicone compound R 4001 80. According to the manufacturer, the compound is produced using polymers from Wacker Chemie that are recommended for applications involving contact with food.
The manufacturer’s documentation states that the raw materials comply with the requirements of BfR Recommendation XV (“Silicones”) and FDA CFR 177.2600 for silicone materials intended for food contact.
The silicone material has a relatively high hardness (approx. Shore A 80), providing good shape stability while maintaining flexibility. This makes the nozzle suitable for repeated use in demanding cleaning environments.
The wide temperature resistance range makes the product suitable for applications involving both low and high operating temperatures, as commonly found in food and pharmaceutical production processes.
