The valves are designed to enable a fluid flow with negligible pressure
variation. This type of valve is ideal to use with viscous fluids of liquids in
biochemical and food industries. This type of full bore device has a consistent
pipeline girth that allows the fluids to flow freely. They are designed to
handle semi solid or harsh chemical particles. The valves supplied can be
automated or even manual too. The former ones are controlled by the pressure of
the compressed gas whereas the latter ones are mechanically locked in the
outlet or inlet position.
The valves come with an assured tight seal that allows it movement
without blocking the rotation. These sanitary valves can work under harsh water
and pressure conditions. The valve is designed to give easy accessibility to
its internal parts and hence the maintenance is quick and cheap too. With these
utility benefits they are extensively used in food, beverage and pharmaceutical
industries.
Latest trends in
sanitary valve present in the market
There
is a vast range of valves available with sensors and control units attached to
them. They have found use in medicine manufacturing industries. Because of
their designing they are capable to work under stringent conditions of
industrial atmosphere. The stainless steel parts of the sanitary valves allow well organised cleaning and
complete sanitation. Therefore these valves are ideal for use in the
environment that requires absolute purity.
They
have a compact and are light in weight for easy installation. Different
specifications under which the valves are calibrated make them useful for
different industries. Some work best for biotechnical purpose, others for
pharmaceuticals. Among them some valves handle liquids better and the rest are
ideal for gaseous medium.
The
extensive use of these sanitary valves has made both domestic
and international companies to fight for the sale. Though the domestically
produced valves are priced reasonably their quality is not up to the mark. This
is due to the negligent attitude of the manufacturers who are already burdened
with the pricing issues. This has led entry to some international brands to
venture in to the domestic markets thus making it a very competitive scenario.
