Isolation Valve

Halma p.l.c offers an Isolation Valve from Bio-Chem Fluidics that reduces the cost of fluid handling. This low cost solenoid operated valve is meant for versatile handling of small flows of aggressive or high purity fluids. All wetted parts in this isolation valve are constructed from non-metallic, inert materials to eliminate contamination of the fluid stream through the valve. The valve’s solenoid actuation mechanism is “isolated” from the fluid with a flexible diaphragm. This eliminates the need for the solenoid and casing to be made from high-priced, exotic materials, reducing the final cost to the customer. These valves can be configured for 2-way normally closed, 2-way normally open and 3-way operation, with orifice sizes ranging from 0.032” to 0.156”. Additionally, BCF provides a selection of construction materials (PTFE, PEEK, PPS) and connection types (threaded ports or manifold mountable), allowing customisation for many different applications. BCF isolation valves’ actuation mechanism is rated up to 20 million cycles to ensure a long service life. Bio-Chem Fluidics, a subsidiary of Halma p.l.c., is a world leading manufacturer of inert, miniature fluid handling components. Under its Bio-Chem Valve® and Omnifit® brands it offers complete fluid system solutions for a wide range of industries including analytical chemistry, clinical diagnostics and medical device manufacture, as well as a large labware portfolio for the scientific community. Halma has recently opened a Hub office in Mumbai.
