Process control in hygienic applications, such as the food and beverage sector, demands a great deal from the components that are used to manage the manufacturing and cleaning processes.
Bürkert provides high-gloss, polished valve stems to minimise friction and maximise the service life of the automatic, self-adjusting seals in the process control. Additionally, the contact-less valve stroke position feedback transducer is provided. The transducer always remains accurate because it measures the linear stroke motion directly without conversion. As the feedback transducer is fully protected inside the valve, the requirement for external components is eliminated, maintaining the clean lines of the exterior valve casing.
Similarly, in clean room applications where full wash-down protection may not be required the new electromotive process valve heads from Bürkert offer precision control without the need for compressed air. The new valves are designed as a complete unit and provide a robust, highly efficient solution suitable for hygienic applications where reliability and precision are key factors.
These products are all supported by a number of experienced designers and engineers, on hand to provide expert advice in designing and installing a new system.
