In the food, bio-engineering and pharmaceutical industries, numerous fluids used for different formulations must be precisely dosed. In the process, high hygiene standards and the relevant directives must be adhered to. Compact, modular valve clusters comprising proven assemblies simplify the process of planning and converting plants, as do the patented multiport valves and complex, multiport-based manifolds supplied by Bürkert Fluid Control Systems.
These virtually cavity-free assemblies are exceptionally cost-efficient in operation because the time required for cleaning and sterilisation work, for instance, is significantly reduced.
In order to respond flexibly to individual customer requirements, Bürkert offers a broad range of different valve solutions that are then combined to create the finished valve cluster. This ensures greater dosing precision based on defined volumes, the elimination of media cross-contamination thanks to reproducible cleaning results, enhanced plant availability due to shorter cleaning times combined with reduced operating costs based on savings achieved in the provision, preparation and disposal of cleaning media.
Multiport valves and complex, multiport-based manifolds such as the Robolux valve solution can meet the stringent requirements imposed by separation processes or be used to maintain sterile process conditions.
