Discover iPolymer\u2019s Range of Chemical Resistant Valves<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Finding secure, dependable valves for use with corrosive chemicals can be a challenge. These valves must be tough enough to withstand contact with substances that can destroy other materials while providing reliable, low-maintenance performance.<\/p>\n

iPolymer manufactures a range of chemical-resistant valves that provide a cost-effective, efficient solution suitable for use in many industries.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

We offer a wide selection of chemical-resistant values to meet your requirements.<\/p>\n

From a design standpoint,\u00a0chemical-resistant valves<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0are pretty much any type of valve that offers good performance in chemical applications. More common commodity valves, manufactured from low-grade plastic, steel or aluminum, will not hold up against high and low pH chemistries. When the media (liquid or gas) has a corrosive nature, such as, sulfuric acid, the application calls for a chemical-resistant valve.<\/p>\n

An acid rated at pH 2 is much more corrosive than a mild acid with a pH of 5.\u00a0In fact, 1,000 times.\u00a0Unfortunately, it isn\u2019t quite this simple, but 0, 1, 2 and 12, 13, 14, you are most likely going to use PTFE devices.\u00a0Mild pH 5, 6, 8, 9, you can use polypropylene or PVC devices.\u00a0Raw PTFE material cost 350% more than polypropylene and PVC.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0iPolymer Chemical-Resistant Valve product line<\/u><\/strong>, also known as our CR Valve product line, is a specific design configuration. Our CR Valve line is a linear manifold family of valves, which can be configured with one inlet and up to 13 outlets (or the reverse: one outline and up to 13 inlets). One inlet feeding up to 13 outlets would be considered a distribution configuration.\u00a0One outlet fed by up to 13 inlets would be considered a selection configuration.<\/p>\n

Chemical Resistant Valves<\/a><\/h4>\n

iPolymer\u2019s Chemical Resistant<\/strong>\u00a0Valve <\/strong>line offers chemical and corrosion control through its complete fluoroplastic design and construction. All wetted surfaces are manufactured from virgin PTFE. Pneumatic actuators, bases and bands are constructed from polypropylene (standard) and PVC (custom).<\/p>\n

The polymer components selected for our\u00a0CR Valve line are specifically suited for use with ultrapure water, deionized water, solvents, chemicals and liquid flowing biomatter. Our PTFE bellows-style valve stem and PTFE valve seat ensure the valve self-flushes a wide variety of flowing media.<\/p>\n

Special custom configurations are available on request. These include: manifold valve assemblies with multiple ports and high-ambient temperature pneumatic actuators. Using our configuration application, you also can select material, number of ways, and port size and type, among features.<\/p>\n

Miniature Solenoid Valves<\/a><\/h4>\n

iPolymer\u2019s Miniature Solenoid Valve<\/strong> series includes 2- and 3-way valves with a variety of body configurations, seat-sealing methods and solenoid coils. The all-PTFE wetted flow path design is optimized for ultra-clean and chemical applications. Their design is ideally suited for semiconductor, pharmaceutical, biomedical and chemical process applications.<\/p>\n

iPolymer Miniature Solenoid Valves, with a 100% wetted flow path, offer precision performance under extreme conditions. We also can custom configure these valves for specific requirements, including; vacuum applications and unique manifold configurations.<\/p>\n

Configurable with an\u00a0EPDM, Viton, Aflas, or\u00a0Kalrez O-Ring, or PTFE hard seat,\u00a0the\u00a0iPolymer Miniature Series PTFE Solenoid Valve line provides unsurpassed chemical compatibility with a wide range of flow media.<\/p>\n
