HOLLOWAY AMERICA today confirmed that the FASTMOUNT Adapter remains the only NA-Connect mounting flange adapter that lets users quickly connect TriClamp-type equipment to existing NA-Connect or H-CONNECT mounting anges in tanks and pressure vessels. The faster connection capability reduces time needed for changing out instruments, probes, piping, etc., and it increases efciency and productivity in manufacturing and processing plants.
Sales Engineer Randy Colwell noted production time was a key focus when HOLLOWAY designed the innovative product: Were pleased the FASTMOUNT Adapter has proven so efficient and valuable to our customers, because we strive to eradicate downtime and increase production for them at every opportunity. HOLLOWAY engineered this adapter to solve a specific problem for Genentech, a biotechnology company, and other customers have since seen its obvious advantages and implemented the FASTMOUNT Adapter in their facilities.
Colwell stated that HOLLOWAYs better-built NA-Connect mounting flange adapter let Genentech operators save time when bolting and unbolting their connectors, because it allows faster, clamp-and-go connection. The FASTMOUNT Adapter also permits easier modications and ensures the same great cleanabililty, with no dead-legs, that people expected from the original NA-Connect and H-CONNECT equipment.
HOLLOWAY AMERICA, which is actually key personnel from both Precision Stainless, Inc. and Holloway Machine Company, has maintained a commitment to perfection, stated Colwell. That pursuit has led to many innovations in custom fabrication, including the FASTMOUNT Adapter that enables quick changes of instruments, probes and piping on traditional NA-Connects.
The FASTMOUNT Adapter offers other important capabilities as well:
Converts existing NA-Connect and H-CONNECT sanitary mounting anges to a quick-clamp-type design
Bolts easily and securely to existing NA-Connect and H-CONNECT mounting anges
Offers immediate use of the adapter without the need for vessel modications, retrots or tools
As Sales Engineer Evelyn Gayer stated, the products benefits are clearly evident: Its great to watch our customers reactions when they first witness the FASTMOUNT Adapter in action. It is often followed by the realization that their own modication and connection processes could be much faster. She recounted an example: During a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) at the HOLLOWAY headquarters for a vessel that had the traditional NA-Connects already installed, the pharmaceutical company BioMarin saw the FASTMOUNT Adapter in use and promptly had them installed on their pressure tank. Gayer added, Its nice to know this adapter aids so many great companies, including biotech companies like BioMarin, that can help in the fight against serious illness or life-threatening diseases.
