GF Piping Systems has introduced a corrosion-resistant pneumatic diaphragm valve that provides a new, long lasting solution for not only highly corrosive dosing applications, but also open/close applications.
The type 604/605 pneumatically actuated dosing valve is designed and tested to surpass two million life cycles. In typical chemical dosing applications, using low-cost solenoid valves save money, but they corrode and break down, requiring frequent replacement. High-end, corrosion resistant solenoid valves for the same application last longer, but are very expensive. The 604/605 dosing valve solves both of these problems. At a lower price point, it is already corrosion resistant, and with minimal metal parts, it provides a longer, more reliable life span.
The 1/2” (d20) size 604/605 Valve is available in body materials PVC, CPVC, PROGEF Standard PP, and SYGEF Standard PVDF with a wide variety of end connections, and custom assemblies. The valve is pressure rated at 90 PSI unidirectional with operating temperatures ranging from -4 to 284°F, depending on body material.
For OEMs constantly challenged with fitting many components into the smallest space possible, the 604/605 has a smaller footprint and lower cost compared to standard pneumatic diaphragm valves.
