Food valves
Stainless steel fittings are indispensable for sanitary applications in industry
Stainless shut-off valves are designed to block and control the flow of the working medium in pipelines, depending on the requirements of technological processes.
The name stainless steel comes from the main material from which the shut-off valves are made - stainless steel.
The main purpose of stainless steel fittings
Food grade stainless steel fittings include connecting, regulating and shut-off valves. Their main purpose is for the transportation of liquids in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
The task of the valves is to control the flows of gas, water, vapor and gas-liquid media by changing the diameter of the passage section of the hole, provided that the required tightness is ensured.
Stainless steel fittings include bends, junctions, tees and plugs. They are designed to change the direction of flow.
The control valves - control valve, mixing valve and high pressure valve – are designed to regulate the parameters of the medium.
Stainless steel ball valves are designed to stop the transportation of the medium by overlapping. They can be: mechanical or pneumatic.
Special equipment for the food industry has also been developed:
- stainless steel tubular corner filters with a slit pipe;
- accessories for stainless steel disc valves;
- stainless steel disc valves and their drives;
- check valves are stainless steel;
- ball valves;
- shut-off valves;
- double-leaf valves;
- single and double seat valves;
- safety valves;
- control valves.
Stainless washing and spray heads are offered for cleaning containers, which are manufactured using food-grade stainless steel
The installation of shut-off and control valves is carried out by coupling, fitting or flange connections, as well as by welding.
Application of stainless shut-off valves
In addition to the food industry, stainless steel products have found their application in many other sectors of the national economy. For example, they are indispensable in gas and oil refining, in housing and communal services and the agro-industrial complex, at chemical industry enterprises.
Main technical characteristics of stainless steel shut-off valves:
| Nominal pressure (Ru) | The pressure applied to the valve by the working medium at a temperature equal to 200 °C. |
| Conditional passage (DU) | The diameter of the main line or pipeline in millimeters. |
Currently, shut-off valves with a nominal passage of more than twenty millimeters are being manufactured not only from stainless steel, but from a variety of non-ferrous metals.
In general, stainless steel products make up the bulk of the total number of elements used for various purposes in the processing industry.
High-quality stainless steel fittings can be purchased at Salutech.
And such a material as stainless steel makes the shut-off and control equipment and all its elements excellent products with a long service life.
Shut-off and control valves and special stainless steel fittings are widely used in the production of dairy products, beverages, confectionery, and pharmaceutical products.
