    Pharmaball valve

    Description

    YGROS PHARMABALL

    The innovative spring-free check valve for pharma use

    The Pharmaball is a spring-free, check valve for use in pharmaceutical application.  This non-return valve can be used with fluids and steam and is suitable for horizontal, vertical up and down installation (even in vertical pipes with flow down).

    YGROS patented technology sets new standards in the world of plant design, thanks to a patented magnetic principle replacing the conventional spring in non-return valves.

    BENEFITS AT A GLANCE

    • Maximum hygiene: Only the shutter comes into contact with the product. There are no springs, discs or other components, which means no contamination and no stagnation point. Top quality surface finishings and materials (PVDF and 1.4435 with <1% Ferrite)
    • Safe closing: Provided by integral magnets
    • Any installation position possible: Unlike other springless check valves, an YGROS Valve can be installed in the horizontal, vertical up and down positions.
    • Energy saving: The innovative working principle and design allow for a smooth flow, minimising pressure drop.
    • Laminar flow: No turbulence
    • Maintenance free
    • Extra high chemical resistance and longer valve life: Through solid construction materials (1.4435 and PVDF)
    •  No more springs that can break or misfire.
    •  No flow obstructing components.
    •  No stagnation point, no media entrapment.
    •  Maintenance free.
    • Fully hygienic materials and surfaces
