SIPV40P, pneumatic, bellows sealed
Soft-start, pneumatically operated, valves with interchangeable orifices for the controlled pumpdown of processes where turbulent flow can cause problems with particulate contamination.
Features and Benefits
- MTTF of 5000000 cycles
- Controlled pump down to match process
- Aluminum bodies
- 100% grease free vacuum
- Fast acting valves in the event of power failure
- Bellows sealed for clean operation
- Easy to service with replaceable orifices
- Supplied with 5 mm, 6 mm and 7 mm interchangeable orifices
- Bakeable to 100 °C to prevent condensation of process gases
Applications
When the slave valve is opened gas flows at a low rate between the two sides of the valve through interchangeable orifices allowing slow pumping. Having reached a predetermined pressure level specified by the user, the master valve is opened by means of a user supplied signal allowing full bore pumping.
The bellows sealed valves are single acting with pneumatic opening and spring closure. They are supplied with three interchangeable orifices to enable pumping characteristics to be matched to your process. A microswitch is supplied as standard to indicate valve status. Both the valve and the microswitch can be baked to 100°C to speed up degassing, and to prevent process gases from condensing inside the valve.
While designed primarily for the semiconductor industry the valve can also be used in other applications requiring controlled pump-down.
