The SCV85 Badger meter control valve is ideal for applications such as pressure, temperature and flow control duty in fermentation reactors.
Critical process applications involving highly sensitive or extremely valuable fluids, for example in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical and food processing industries, demand automated control valves which are designed and manufactured to the most exacting standards.
These are ideal situations for the SCV85 Badger meter control valve which is designed and manufactured to 3A standards and is one of a range of valves available through liquids handling specialists Pump Engineering.
This compact, modulating sanitary control valve is ideally suited for applications such as pressure, temperature and flow control duty in fermentation reactors, control of gas blankets in closed vessels and additive/ingredient control.
The valve is supplied with an actuator which is housed in epoxy coated aluminium as Standard.
However, where applications demand particularly high levels of hygiene, the actuator is available in 316 stainless steel.
Other features include, hygienic, quick-strip clamps and couplings and a choice of 'ends' such as butt-weld and Tri-Clamp.
These valves are available in four sizes - 0.5, 0.75, 1 and 1.5in - and can be supplied with a range of accessories such as, positioners, solenoids, limit switches, gauges, I/P converters and filter regulators.
SCV85 valves are available with a range of trims from a Cv of 0.5 to 20 and a range ability of up to 60:1.
Standard materials are body, bonnet and inner-valve in 316 S/S, clamps in 304 or 316 S/S, with gaskets and O rings in FDA approved silicon or Viton.
Typical applications for the SCV85 control valve have included, nitrogen control on freeze dried food processing, pH control in soup and pet food production, decaffeination and vacuum packing in coffee production and nitrogen initiation into wort as part of a brewing process.
