Tanks from approximately 10L to 10,000L are acceptable! The opening and closing are done solely by the diaphragm, allowing for smooth discharge of the tank contents with almost no residue left.

【Features】 ● The structure is directly welded to the bottom of the tank, resulting in excellent stirring efficiency. ● There are no contact parts such as gland packing, stem, seat, or gasket; the opening and closing are done solely by the diaphragm, allowing for smooth discharge of the tank contents with minimal residue. Contamination caused by valve components is extremely low, and cleaning and sterilization can be easily and reliably performed. ● The applicable nominal diameters range from DN15 to 100 (4S), making it suitable for use with small containers of about 10 liters to medium tanks of about 10,000 liters. 【Specifications (Excerpt)】 ● Main body material: SUS316L ● Applicable nominal diameter (DN): 15 to 100 ● Operation method: Manual operation and pneumatic operation methods are both applicable. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Easy with 90-degree operation! Prevents over-tightening and damage! We solve concerns like "I'm worried if it's securely tightened..."

The "BQL400NB model" is a rapid-opening and closing type handle diaphragm valve from BioClean. While the standard handle version requires about 5 turns of operation (for DN50), the rapid-opening and closing handle allows for a very simple operation of just 【opening and closing by 90 degrees】. The position of the handle makes it clear to see the valve's open and close status even from a distance. Additionally, it has achieved a lighter and more compact design compared to conventional products. Please try the easy operation and stable sealing performance of the 90-degree rotating lever handle. 【We solve the following problems!】 ■ The opening and closing torque is excessive. → It can be reduced, greatly contributing to labor savings. ■ I want to check the open and close status from a distance. → The handle position clearly shows the valve's open and close status even from afar. ■ The valve is damaged due to over-tightening. → Only the minimum necessary operation is required. This prevents damage and extends lifespan. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

• valve

Clamp, welding, and various flange-compatible steam trap replacement valves.

This is a drain discharge valve for sanitary piping with a simple design. By forming grooves in the valve seat area, it allows for continuous drainage. Other than the grooves, the design follows the NDV standard specifications, so not only consumables like diaphragms can be used, but also standard NDV actuators. Connection methods include clamp, welding, and various flanges. The flow path surface can be electropolished. 【Features】 ■ Utilizes bio-clean diaphragm valve technology ■ Ideal for manufacturing equipment in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, and semiconductors ■ Basic structure is a diaphragm valve ■ Even if foreign substances enter the valve seat area, it does not fail immediately, and maintenance is excellent ■ Simple design with a gap (groove) of φ2 or φ3 equivalent at the valve seat area to discharge the drain ■ Applicable nominal diameter: Customizable from 8A to 100A as needed *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
