Flexi-Valve

The interception of products such as pills, capsules and tablets or pearl drops and plugs made of rubber or silicone does not allow the use of traditional butterfly valves as these products would be damaged.  For this application SteriValves offers the Flexivalve, a special butterfly valve with a flexible silicone coated disc and a soft seat that permits the interception and isolation of the product flow without any damage.  The special clamp that is supplied with the valve (quick open versions) makes it more ergonomic and sterile.  The Flexivalve is also a part of the modular system offered by SteriValves. This system allows the interchangeability of all the components pertaining to the range of sanitary valves.

Flexivalve Monobloc:
The interception of products such as pills, capsules and tablets or pearl drops and plugs made of rubber or silicone does not allow the use of traditional butterfly valves as these products would be damaged.  For this application SteriValves offers in addition to Flexivalve, Flexivalve Monobloc a special butterfly valve with a flexible silicone coated disc that permits the interception and isolation of the product flow without any damage.  Flexivalve Monobloc is composed by only 3 pieces: a monobloc body, a silicon covered disc and a handle.  The body can be welded in place onto a container and remain permanently in place for washing purposes. Removal of the valve handle allows the disc to be taken out for thorough cleaning.  Flexivalve Monobloc also utilizes the accessories of our modular system.
