3/8'' Sanitary Mini Diaphragm Valves AV-4MI AISI-316L

3/8'' Sanitary Mini Diaphragm Valves AV-4MI AISI-316L

Application

AV-4MI series is a sanitary MINI diaphragm valve with compact design. The valve is excellent for flow control as well as for open/close duties. It has T type three ways, L type three ways, U type three ways, direct way. The valve is mainly used for sampling, biological system, laboratory engineering, etc..

Materials

Materials: AISI-316L
Size: 3/8''
Diaphragm: EPDM + PTFE, others available upon request.

The seal materials comply with FDA177.2600 standard. Using proprietary technology, the diaphragm uses a combination of EPDM and PTFE, which is secured using SS bolts. The sealing part where contact with the medium is of PTFE material, it has good cold resistance -13°F (-25°C), excellent heat-resistance 482°F (+250°C), tolerance to most chemicals, and excellent abrasion resistance to medium flow.

Standard Design

  • Standards: DIN, 3A, SMS, ISO / IDF, BS / RJT, ASME / BPE.
  • The parts mainly include: a hand wheel or a pneumatic head, diaphragm and valve body which are assembled together with bolts and nuts. The body can be two ways or three ways.
  • End connections: butt-welded, sanitary clamp, or others upon request
  • Body type: T-type tee, U type tee, Mini type, tank bottom type, etc.

End connections: butt-welded, sanitary clamp, T-type, U-type or others upon request.

Pneumatic control

Normally Closed (NC) - Air to open and spring to close;
Normally Open (NO) - Air to close and spring to open;
Air to Air (AA) - Air to open, air to close.

Optimal Installation Angle

Due to the structure feature, 15° ~ 30° is the optimal angle for installation,which makes complete drainage after cleaning and keeps no residue.
