Diaphragm valves
The diaphragm valves are mainly used in
water treatment plants, fertilizer & petrochemicals industries, chemical
industries, refineries, thermal power stations, and other process industries.
Equally suited to on – off, or flow control applications, a diaphragm valve will
handle positive pressures or high vacuum. Due to the wide range of material
options it will handle almost all applications within its temperature and
pressure ranges (175°C max. and 16 bar max.) and as such is used in almost every
industry on both corrosive and abrasive applications. All working parts are
isolated from the line media which enhances its reliability. Maintenance is a
simple task with the body remaining in the pipe, the valve thus being ‘field
serviceable’. It has linear flow characteristics which makes it well suited to
throttling or modulating duties. On/off and control automation is possible with
the use of modern compact actuators and accessories.
