Actually, Diaghpragm Valve has the same role as other valve types. Its function is of course to regulate the flow of fluids or gases in an industrial piping system. However, this type of diaghpragm valve has advantages, including having a quiet flow so that the fluid will flow without resistance. This diaghpragm valve is great for flow control and tight flow closure even though the pipeline contains a suspended solid. Diaphragm valves are suitable for corrosive fluids, fibrous materials, viscous materials, sludges, solids in suspension, gas and compressed air.
Diaghpragm Valve
Here are the main advantages of Diaphragm Valve:
Contamination Free:
The isolated closing mechanism prevents lubricants or metal parts of the valve from contaminating the flowing fluid, ideal for the food, pharmaceutical and pure water industries.
Leak-Proof: The flexible membrane design provides a very tight seal, reducing the risk of fluid or gas leakage. Corrosion & Abrasion Resistant: The inside of the valve body can be coated with various special materials to make it highly resistant to harsh chemicals and solid particles such as sand or mud.
Easy Maintenance: The design allows for membrane replacement without having to remove the valve body from the main pipeline.
Multipurpose: Effective for on-off systems and for regulating the size of fluid flow (throttling)
