Control of Liquids, Gases, and Solids

On/Off Valves with Sanitary Quick-Clamp
Fittings for Food and Beverage

To maintain sanitary standards in food, beverage, and dairy systems that require frequent cleaning, these valves are made of FDA compliant materials. Polished to a 32 Ra finish, they have smooth internal surfaces that prevent product buildup and inhibit bacteria growth. All have sanitary quick-clamp fittings for easy disassembly.

Sanitary On/Off Valves for Food and Beverage

3-A certified as meeting sanitary design standards, these valves control the flow of liquids in food, dairy, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic plants.

On/Off Valves with Butt-Weld
Fittings for Food and Beverage

Weld these valves to unthreaded metal pipe for a permanent, flush connection that permits smooth flow through a line. They have polished internal surfaces for easy cleaning in food and beverage systems.

Sanitary Air-Driven On/Off Valves

Use air pressure to automatically control the flow of liquids in sanitary environments, such as food and beverage processing plants.

Air-Driven On/Off Valves for Food and Beverage

For food and beverage applications that require frequent cleaning, these valves have quick-clamp connections, polished internal surfaces, and a three-piece bolted body for easy disassembly.

Flow-Adjustment Valves with Sanitary
Quick-Clamp Fittings for Food and Beverage

Maintain sanitary standards in food and beverage applications with these valves that have internal surfaces that prevent product buildup and inhibit bacteria growth. All have sanitary quick-clamp fittings for easy disassembly in systems that require frequent cleaning. They gradually open and close to adjust and regulate flow.

Precision Flow-Adjustment Valves with
Sanitary Quick-Clamp Fittings for Clean Steam

Often used in sterilization applications with clean steam, these valves are electropolished to a 16 Ra finish for smooth internal surfaces that prevent product buildup and inhibit bacteria growth.

Sanitary Diverting Valves

Designed to direct the flow of liquids in food, dairy, and chemical-processing facilities, these valves can be fully disassembled for clean-out-of-place (COP) processes.

Sanitary Sampling Valves

Take liquid samples in sanitary environments—these sampling valves have a hygienic design, so they’re commonly used in breweries and wineries.

High-Purity Air-Driven Diverting
Valves for Food and Beverage

Often used in sanitary valve manifolds, these 3-A certified valves can be cleaned in place to eliminate the risk of cross contamination in food, beverage, and dairy lines. All have sanitary quick-clamp fittings for easy disassembly. They operate on compressed air to automatically divert flow between ports more quickly than motor-driven valves. You must control the air to the actuator using either an electric pilot valve or a manual on/off valve.

Air-Driven Diverting Valves for Food and Beverage

For food and beverage systems that require frequent cleaning, these valves have sanitary quick-clamp connections for easy disassembly. They operate on compressed air to automatically divert flow between ports more quickly than motor-driven valves. You must control the air to the actuator using either an electric pilot valve or a manual on/off valve.

Check Valves with Sanitary Quick-Clamp
Fittings for Food and Beverage

To maintain sanitary standards in food, beverage, and dairy applications, these valves have sanitary quick-clamp connections and polished internal surfaces for easy cleaning.

Insert Check Valves with Sanitary
Quick-Clamp Fittings for Food and Beverage

These compact valves fit into standard sanitary quick-clamp fittings. All are FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.2600 and have polished surfaces for easy cleaning.

Compact Float Valves for Food and Beverage

Smaller than other float valves, these are sized for containers with limited space.

Float Valves for Food and Beverage

Right-Angle Flow Rectangular Manifolds

Distribute air or fluid to multiple locations from a single supply source with these manifolds. They are also known as headers.

High-Polish Metal Quick-Clamp
Sanitary Tube Fittings

The smooth finish inside these stainless steel quick-clamp fittings makes it easy to remove product residue.

Clean Room Pressure-Regulating
Valves for Water, Air, and Inert Gas

To maintain contaminant-free standards in clean room environments, these valves come cleaned and bagged to Fed. Std. Class 100 and ISO Class 5 clean room standards and have a 316 stainless steel body with a smooth finish to resist dust collection.

Clean Room Panel-Mount Pressure-Regulating
Valves for Air and Inert Gas

Maintain contaminant-free standards in clean room environments. These valves come cleaned and bagged to Fed. Spec. Class 100 and ISO Class 5 clean room standards and have a 316 stainless steel body with a smooth finish to resist dust collection.

Pressure-Regulating Valves with
Compression Fittings for Food and Beverage

Compression fittings bite down on hard metal and plastic tubing for a tighter seal than push-to-connect fittings.

Sanitary Pressure-Regulating Valves

Regulate air, gas, and liquid pressure on food, beverage, and pharmaceutical lines with these valves—they’re 3-A certified to meet sanitary design standards.

Sanitary Back-Pressure-Regulating Valves

Designed to meet 3-A sanitary standards, these valves regulate liquid, gas, and air pressure in hygienic zones of food and beverage plants.

Hands-Free Freestanding Sinks

Step on the pedals for water; release them to stop the flow.

Sanitary Stainless Steel Steam Traps

Suitable for food, pharmaceutical, and other sanitary environments, these steam traps are made of 316 stainless steel with a Viton® fluoroelastomer O-ring to stand up to frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners and sanitizers.

Sanitary Energy-Saving Stainless Steel Steam Traps

When close to steam temperature, these traps—also called thermodynamic steam traps—release condensate from steam lines to save energy in food, pharmaceutical, and other sanitary environments.

Compressed Air Systems

Clean Room Compressed Air
Filter/Regulators for Particle Removal

Assembled, inspected, and packaged in a clean environment, these filter/regulators come sealed in antistatic double bags.

Clean Room Compressed Air Regulators

Cleaned and double bagged in an ISO Class 3 and Fed. Spec. Class 1 clean room for protection from contamination, these regulators are suitable for use in clean rooms.
