Huntingdon Fusion Techniques (HFT), whose US headquarters are located in Florida, has designed the new PureGate® accessory, a one-way valve for specific flow rate and pressure. It has been designed and constructed to pass a maximum of 7.5 liters/min and 0.5 bar pressure. Other versions of 1bar and above are also available.
PureGate has applications in both fluid and gas control. It is designed for use in small liquid dispensing machines, as well as large ones with multiple heads, where higher pressures and flow rates might be used to cater for the output of a multi-head machine. It can also be used for applications in the welding industry, where inflatable devices are used for weld purging tubes and pipes.
