Burkert’s standard and specialized process valves

Bürkert provides a vast variety of control valve solutions for the process industry. With such a vast array of fluids and gases being used in so many different control processes in modern manufacturing, the number of valves available number tens of thousands.

For example, solenoid valves are available in various designs. The most basic of these is determining if the valve is direct acting or pilot-operated, after which the armature design should be identified: plunger, rocker, flipper or pivot. Coupled to this are the chemical resistance and temperature requirements which determine the materials used to manufacture the solenoid components. Further options are available depending on the certifications that may be required; ATEX, IEC Ex, DINCerto and others can be specified to ensure compliance with local regulations.

There are angled control valves for both gases and liquids, globe valves and diaphragm valves, all of which can be specified with a wide range of control and communication options to suit any application or existing installation.

Beyond the common valve types, Bürkert also specialises in developing ground-breaking valve technology, such as the revolutionary Robolux valve which offers multiple control options for hygienic applications using a very compact footprint.
