Specac | ProCell - Process Flow CellsProCell Vortex data sheetProCell Vortex:Enhanced Optional FeaturesCleaning PortsAn attractive feature of the Specac ProCell Vortexprocess cell is the optional “cleaning port”, wherea novel plug arrangement gives access to thewindow surfaces. This allows the internal cellwindows to be cleaned without removing the cellfrom the pipe work, in the event that foulingoccurs (either from long term use or following aprocess upset that caused material to bedeposited within the plant). To assist thisfunctionality, the cell would typically be installed ina ‘by-pass’ loop where valves can isolate it fromthe main process when servicing occurs.plug into the port. The latter has the effect ofstopping the leak and allowing the process topressurise the secondary seal. The user is thenaware that the cell is operating on the back-upseal and needs attention at the first convenientopportunity.Diffusion BondingVersions of the Specac ProCell Vortex processcell are available with diffusion bonded windows.These versions avoid the use of any polymermaterials and are capable of operation attemperatures up to 400°C or in chemicalenvironments that are incompatible with eventhe high performance perfluoroelastomer seals.‘Tell-tale’ PortsA further propriety optional feature is the ‘Tell-Tale’ ports. These are small passages within thecell body that link the space between the primaryand back-up window seals to an outside port.They can be used in critical or hazardousapplications in several ways: either as a visualindication of leakage from the primary seal, orwith the use of a secondary detection system inthe event of a particularly hazardous material. Ifleakage is observed the user has the option ofdealing with it immediately or fitting a blankingProCell Vortex: Application SupportSpecac endeavor to provide the most reliableand appropriate process cell solution for thecustomer’s application.
