Sanitary valves are used in higher hygiene requirements occasions. It seems to have no difference compared with the industrial valves only from their appearances. In other words, the difference between sanitary valves and industrial valves is not obvious in some ways. Here’s a comparison. The biggest difference between the two valves is the raw materials used to manufacture them. Sanitary valves are used in the environment of high hygiene requirements such as pharmaceutical, food and daily commodities. These products are edible or having direct contact with human bodies. Therefore, there is high sanitation demand for the manufacturing machinery, and ordinary steel, iron, copper and other materials cannot meet the standard. For…

How Do Sanitary Diaphragm Valves Work?
Sanitary diaphragm valve is a special form of cut-off valve. It’s opening and closing parts is a diaphragm made of soft material to separate the inner chamber of the valve body from the inner cavity of the cover and the driving parts. Sanitary diaphragm valve is widely used in hygienic winemaking, dairy products, beverages, and other food industry as well as the pharmaceutical field of aseptic conditions, to achieve the control of pipeline fluid and open/close tasks. Related: Sanitary diaphragm valve new products: Sanitary Diaphragm Bleed Valve With Tri-clamp Ends, Manual Type Operation principle of sanitary diaphragm valve Diaphragm valves are normally closed with the diaphragm close to the inner chamber of…

An Overview of Sanitary Control Valve
Control valves regulate the flow of liquids, gases, or a mixture of both as required. In its most basic form, a control valve has an adjustable aperture which is opened and closed manually as necessary—opening to increase the flow and closing to decrease the flow. Why do we need control valves? In many cases, the piping system requires a precise amount of constant flow to properly determine the size of the pump, piping and other accessories. If there is no proper flow control valve, the fluctuating system pressure will deviate from the design flow. The flow control valve should be constant. All valves in the system can be added together to help…

3 Types of Sanitary Butterfly Valves
A Quick Look at These Three Types of Sanitary Butterfly Valve. Sanitary Butt Welded Butterfly Valve, Sanitary Thread Butterfly Valves and Sanitary Flange Butterfly Valves. Sanitary Butt Welded Butterfly Valve The Sanitary Butt Welded Butterfly Valves are triple offset structure and suitable for high temperature, high pressure, corrosion, etc. Its are quarter-turn valves which are used for isolating or regulating flow. They are favored for being lighter in weight, requiring less support and are suitable for water and gas, which makes them useful across industrial, mining and power applications. The butt-weld butterfly valve has various advantages such as good sealing performance, convenient operation, and quick opening and closing. They have no flanges, making the…

What Makes Sanitary Fittings Different From Ordinary Fittings
Pipe fitting or tube fitting is the occupation of installing or repairing piping or tubing systems that convey liquid, gas, and occasionally solid materials. This work involves selecting and preparing pipe or tubing, joining it together by various means, and the location and repair of leaks. The different materials, construction mechanical processing, ID & OD dimensions of the fittings make them different. As for the food, beverage, biopharmaceutical and personal care industries, they will definitely choose stainless steel sanitary fittings rather than any other ordinary fittings. Why? What is the difference between them? Existed along with word “sanitary”, sanitary tube fittings are cleanable. They can either cleaned by dismantling a…
