METAGLAS® Type 80.NA — METACLAMP® for Flush-Mounted NA-Connect™
Type 80.NA METACLAMP® is engineered to fit the flush-mounted NA-Connect™ system,
delivering clear process visibility, unmatched safety, and easy cleaning/sterilisation (CIP/SIP).
The mechanically prestressed glass-to-metal fused construction sets the benchmark for sanitary sight windows
where downtime, contamination risk, and operator safety are non-negotiable.
Design & Interface
Connection: Flush-mounted NA-Connect™ interface using METACLAMP®
Assembly: Metal-fused glass ring with permanent compressive pre-stress (no glass/gasket creep)
Profile: Low build height with a smooth, easy-clean viewing surface
Sealing: Uses the NA-Connect™ sanitary gasket set per application spec
Performance Benefits
Safety First: Mechanically prestressed METAGLAS® eliminates risk of sudden rupture
Hygienic by Design: Flush geometry supports thorough CIP/SIP and rapid turnaround
Clarity Under Load: Distortion-free view with excellent resistance to thermal shock and vibration
Longevity: Extended service life compared to conventional sight glasses
Typical Applications
Pharmaceutical and biotech skids (fermentation, filtration, buffer prep)
Aseptic food, dairy, beverage, and brewing lines
Chemical/cosmetic sanitary transfer systems requiring flush, cleanable optics
Critical observation ports where contamination risk must be minimised
Key Advantages:
Purpose-built for NA-Connect™ flush-mount installations
METAGLAS® metal-fused construction = maximum safety and reliability
Sanitary, low-profile window with effortless cleaning/sterilisation
Maintenance-free optical seal; robust under pressure/temperature cycling
Specify NA-Connect™ size, pressure/temperature envelope, materials, and gasket preference.
We’ll configure Type 80.NA to your duty and documentation pack (PED/QA) without the back-and-forth.
