BFM FITTINGS THE BENEFITS Downtime Fast and efficient cleaning in between product runs means downtime has been significantly reduced. Hygiene There is no more dust leakage, eliminating cross contamination of products and reducing general housekeeping costs. Explosion Resistant The removal of dust and the anti-static properties of the BFM Seeflex fitting helped reduce the risk of secondary explosion. Health & Safety No need for tools to remove or install the connector in difficult positions means its much safer for staff to change-over. 14
SEEFLEX 040E Clear ether based thermoplastic polyurethane alloy. Will not fracture as a result of constant flexing. Used on all types of stationary, vibratory & gyratory sifters, screeners, feeders, bin discharges, hoppers, conveyors, packing equipment or any product handling equipment. Superior chemical resistance for CIP and washing. Excellent abrasion resistance. 15
SEEFLEX 040E Smooth welded seam. Dust control sleeves and transitions. Once in place, these connectors are dust tight making them the first choice for dust free factories. Replaces old gum rubber tubing/hose and clamp sleeves. Snap-in connection installs in seconds. Provides sanitary connections between process equipment. Certified for use in USDA and 3-A powder applications 16
SEEFLEX 040AS Designed for applications where static is a problem Compatible with 100% aromatic hydrocarbon vapors, gasoline, crude oil, and many others Excellent abrasion, chemical, and puncture resistance Dust control sleeves and transitions, first choice for dust free factories Smooth welded seam 17
Simply insert the TR Release Tool into a 6mm ( 15 / 64 ) hole in the side of both the upper and lower spigots to remove. Tool Release (TR) Connectors Developed for applications where the connector is mounted very close to equipment that is rotating or spinning very fast, providing additional safety for production and maintenance staff. The TR (tool release) 040E and 040AS fittings have an embossed identifier stamp to make them easy to differentiate from our standard fittings. The Snap Ring of the BFM TR connector is manufactured to have a firmer fit than an a standard connector which also makes it ideal for negative pressure (vacuum) applications. 18

CASE STUDY DUST REDUCTION (SUGAR) A global sugar company in the UK had virtually given up on solving the problem of dust leaks in their rotary sifter room, where they had been using convoluted rubber connectors. The connectors only lasted an average of 5 days, and cleaning and plant maintenance was a constant challenge. Since installing the BFM fitting system, however, dust has been reduced by 100% and the Chief Engineer of the company said that you could hold a board meeting in the rotary sifter room now it is spotless! 21
CASE STUDY HYGIENE (DAIRY) A leading New Zealand dairy plant had a major challenge with hygiene in their blending filler room. A vibratory discharging cone was connected to the hopper via a traditional connecting sock and steel clamps. There was excessive dust leakage and product build-up in the joins a major hygiene issue. Since installing the BFM fitting system, the room is clean and there has been a significant reduction in both downtime and replacement costs. 22
