Valves Used in the Pharmaceutical Industry (Part One)

Feb 02, 2021 / Category: Industry News
In most cases, austenitic stainless steel is a widely used valve material, and the valve made from this material can be applied to the pharmaceutical industry.

In the clean piping system of the pharmaceutical industry, there are special requirements for valves to avoid stagnant water as much as possible. "Among the many valves, the diaphragm valve is commonly used. Due to its special design, the medium in the pipeline will not contact pipe fittings except the gasket, creating a clean environment," valve experts said. Therefore, diaphragm valves are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. However, it should be reminded that a certain installation angle of the diaphragm valve should be ensured during installation.

In addition, the PCS ball valve is also a common valve in pharmaceutical industry. Although the cost and pressure of the PCS ball valve are higher than those of the ordinary one, the inside wall of its valve body is clean. According to experts, the three-piece ball valve is also popular in the pharmaceutical industry.

And non-retention ball valve is also suitable for the pharmaceutical industry. This valve has a smooth inside wall so that no residue remains in the valve body. There is no need to remove the residue every time, and the body is not an ideal breeding ground for bacteria, making this valve indispensable equipment in the pharmaceutical industry.
