MRY-SST-HVD: The Ultimate Solution for Watertight Clamping

ELESA enhances its range of adjustable handles by introducing the brand-new watertight MRY-SST-HVD handle, designed for applications requiring frequent cleaning and exposure to liquids. This adjustable handle is conceived to meet the needs of industries where cleanliness and safety are paramount, offering robust performance and reliability in demanding environments, for example on machines and equipment in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.

Main Features:

• Material and Design: MRY-SST-HVD handle is made from glass-fibre reinforced polyamide (PA) technopolymer, “Signal blue” RAL 5005, material suitable for contact with food (FDA CFR.21 and EU 10/2011). Easily detectable and recognisable to the human eye, thanks to the specificity and uniqueness of the colour naturally absent in the environment in which these components are applied. These characteristics contribute to increasing the levels of safety in food production processes.
• Watertight Construction: the system of gaskets between the parts of the adjustment mechanism makes this handle practically watertight, preventing the deposit of residues, which can represent a risk of contamination. This feature makes the handle ideal for environments subject to cleaning cycles with water jets.

• Stainless Steel Components: the handle is available with AISI 316 stainless steel boss or threaded stud. Compared to other types of handles with metal retaining screws, this solution offers in addition: the electrical insulation for the operator during operations, the removal of visible steel parts that may rust, and a more comfortable lever disengagement – even with lack of space.

• Ergonomics and Safe: the cavity-free design and the plain surface finish (roughness Ra < 0.8 μm) ensure maximum serviceability, making it easier to clean and maintain.
