Autoclave High Pressure Series CS: Autoclave High Pressure coned-and-threaded tube connection, maximum rupture pressure to 110000 psi (7584 bar).

The 3/16F style features a 3/16” blow-out diameter and a flat seat which can be ordered in pressure range from 200 to 27000 psi (13.8 to 1862 bar).

The 1/4A style features a 1/4” blow-out diameter and an angular seat which can be ordered in pressures from 900 to 60000 psi (62 to 4137 bar).

The 1/2F style features a 1/2” blow-out diameter and a flat seat which can be ordered in pressures from 500 to 10000 psi (35 to 690 bar).

ASME Safety Head - Autoclave now has an ASME Section VIII Div. 3 safety head assembly rated to 115000 psi (7929 bar). Contact the factory or your local sales representative for details and ordering information.

Materials and Features

Non-rotating double-cone plug design avoids galling and scoring of safety head or connection during installation. Reduces likelihood of leakage.
Interchangeable hold-down rings permit use of several different sizes and types of rupture discs in a single safety head. Accommodates discs with rupture pressures as low as 90 psi (6.2 bar) and ranging to 60000 psi (4137 bar) and above.
Installs in any standard Autoclave coupling, elbow, cross or tee.
Cold-worked Type 316 SS body hold down gland and plug, all series.
Hold down rings are corrosion resistant stainless steel.

Consult Local Sales Representative for safety head assemblies rated above 60000 psi (4137 bar).

Ordering Information
To order an Autoclave Universal Safety Head, use the catalog order number from table. ADD THE SIZE OF THE RUPTURE DISC YOU WANT AS A SUFFIX TO THE CATALOG NUMBER; SUCH AS CS6600-1/4A. Then order desired rupture discs from rupture disc section. (This is important since the disc size determines which hold-down ring will be furnished with the safety head.) Note: Plug is included.

Note: Interchangeable hold-down rings permit use of several different sizes and types of rupture disc in a single safety head.

Maximum pressure rating is based on the lowest rating of any component.
Actual working pressure may be determined by tubing pressure rating, if lower.
