Single-use containment valves prevent cross-contamination
This company now offers a fully automated single-use variant of its MCV model of containment valve (photo). The new model, known as MCV-LW, is a lightweight split butterfly valve constructed of a performance polymer material. The levers for locking the valve and actuating it can be changed over from those for manual operation and those for pneumatic actuation. The pneumatic actuators can be controlled via a programmable logic controller (PLC). The MCV-LW is designed for GMP-compliant manufacturing where powders and granular materials are processed. Its suitability for single-use operation reduces the risk of cross contamination. Hall 3.1, Stand A75 — Müller Systems & Handling GmbH, Rheinfelden, Germany
