This Fit 12.7 mm Pipe OD x 0.5 in Tri Clamp Composite Diaphragm Valve is designed for homebrew beer systems. It combines a robust SUS 316L stainless steel body with a replaceable composite diaphragm to provide sanitary, reliable flow control in compact brewing setups. The valve uses a standard tri clamp connection and is sized for 12.7 mm pipe outer diameter, compatible with 1/2 inch tri clamp fittings. Key benefits Hygienic design for beverage handling and easy cleaning during brew cycles. Corrosion resistant SUS 316L stainless steel body for durability in brewing environments. Composite diaphragm delivers reliable sealing and resistance to caustic cleaning agents. Precise on/off control with minimal dead volume for cleaner transfers and better process control. Simple installation with standard tri clamp fittings, enabling quick setup and maintenance. Key attributes Functionality: Diaphragm valve with tri clamp connection for controlling liquids in smallbore brewing lines. Compatibility: Fits 12.7 mm pipe OD and 1/2 inch tri clamp fittings; suitable for standard sanitary fittings in homebrew systems. Size: 12.7 mm pipe outer diameter; 0.5 inch tri clamp size. Material: SUS 316L stainless steel body; composite diaphragm. Performance: Diaphragm design offers reliable seal and easy cleaning in typical homebrew workflows. Applications and use cases Wort transfer and flow control: Use this valve to regulate the transfer of wort from the kettle to the fermenter or between vessels, reducing splashing and enabling gentle, controlled transfer. Cleaninplace (CIP) and sanitation: Integrate the valve into CIP loops to direct cleaning and sanitizing solutions through the system without disassembly, helping to maintain sanitary conditions between batches. Bottling, kegging, and carbonation lines: Employ the valve in inline liquid paths during bottling or kegging to control flow and minimize oxygen exposure, supporting consistent carbonation and transfer procedures. Notes The combination of SUS 316L stainless steel and a composite diaphragm is chosen for durability and sanitary performance in homebrew applications. Tri clamp compatibility and the 12.7 mm pipe OD sizing make this valve suitable for compact, spaceconscious brewing setups while preserving standard sanitary connections.
