Isolation valves for hazardous fluids
Miniature solenoid valves made of inert perfluoroelastomer to cope with aggressive or high-purity fluids are available in three configurations for OEM product designers
Flow control specialist Bio-Chem Valve has developed inert, perfluoroelastomer miniature isolation valves for the handling of aggressive, particulate-laden, and high purity fluids in scientific and medical equipment These innovative solenoid valves enable OEM product designers to accommodate fluids that present a threat to the integrity of standard valve seals

Economical inert valves
Miniature valves for high-purity medical applications feature inert, all-plastic fluid path and can handle high-purity, aggressive and corrosive liquids
With a diameter of only 19mm and varying in height between 48mm and 60mm, the valves consist of inert yet resilient perfluoroelastomer polymer diaphragms and a Peek body, providing quality sealing with improved resistance to particulate damage.
Highly reliable, they feature a low internal volume, fast response times, continuous duty coils and a high cycle life with low power consumption.
The valves are available in two-way normally open, two-way normally closed, or three-way configurations.
A choice of materials are available for the diaphragm and valve body, and flow rates and pressure capabilities can be customised to meet specific application requirements.
In addition, the valves can be combined with Bio-Chem's patented manifold system to reduce the cost of design and assembly time in instrument design and production.
