Steriflow Introduces the SVC/SHC Series Sanitary Check Valves
The patented SVC/SHC Series are vertical and horizontal check valves designed specifically for use in bio-pharmaceutical and parenteral drug manufacturing applications. They are the first check valves to follow the valve design guidelines of ASME BPE 2007. Since no springs, hinges or other mechanical return mechanisms are used, they are crevice free, have no areas for particle entrapment and are fully drainable. Features include:
- Applicable for gas, or liquids, and suitable for CIP and SIP. 316L/elastomer disc units are autoclavable
- Elimination of springs or hinges speeds opening time and eliminates particle entrapment areas
- High flow rates with minimal pressure loss compared with mechanical return check valves
- Low particle shedding properties compared with sliding disc type or spring return check valves
- Unique design eliminates dead space and crevices associated with spring check valves
- Unique design eliminates dead space and crevices associated with spring check valves
- Self-draining flow path
- Sanitary tube weld ends and Tri-clamp ends available
- Positive shutoff without the use of a spring
