DCD Composite Rupture Discs – Pressure Protection for Hygienic Industries

DonadonSDD offers top-quality DCD composite rupture discs that are designed to safeguard hygienic industries from sudden pressure variations that can cause severe damage. The DCD rupture discs are consisting of 3 or more components parts that form a single unit disc to be inserted in standard sanitary Ferrules/Clamps. Are available in a large variety of executions to cover most industry requirements.

Keyfeatures & technical benefits

High Certification Standards:

The DCD discs are certified to meet the highest international standards, including PED 2014/68/UE (CE STAMP), ATEX EX II 2 GD (CE STAMP), PER 2016 UK Statutory (UKCA STAMP), CU TR 032 (EAC STAMP).

Technique:

Made of a slotted, perforated metal part, a seal membrane (usually in PTFE but available in various materials), and a protection section.

Applications:

Ideal for static gas and liquid conditions, low pressure, and aseptic applications.

Non-Fragmenting:

Responds to overpressure with rapid total opening without fragmentation of metallic layers.

Vacuum Resistance:

Specific support for vacuum and back-pressure protection are available on request.

Double way disc option:

Protects against vacuum and pressure simultaneously (even with two different set pressures).

Applications:

Designed for C.O.P. (Clean-Out-Of-Place) applications

FDA-Certified Gaskets:

DonadonSDD composite rupture discs can be used with PTFE gaskets that meet the highest international regulations, including FDA and USP class VI, and Eu 10/2011. These gaskets facilitate installation in Clamp fittings (sanitary, Tri-Clamp, Tank Connection).
