The focus is on the requirements for "hygienic design" and cost effective process-optimized manufacture. It is possible with immediate effect to configure multi-port valves with diaphragm globe valves on a case by case basis according to customer requirements. For instance, multi-port valve blocks with the control valve GEMÜ 567 BioStar control have already been designed for aseptic dosing from an ultra-pure water loop. Another example are filling blocks with the GEMÜ F40 and GEMÜ F60 filling valves, developed in combination with auxiliary valves as a complete solution for gas control.
The integration of diaphragm globe valves in multi-port valve blocks combines the advantages of a valve block with those of PD design. This opens the door to new opportunities for plant operators, which GEMÜ can implement according to custom requirements.
