Bürkert has released a modular valve and block package designed to create systems quickly. The INOX solution incorporates an all stainless steel pneumatically actuated valve, and standard block modules with eight standard port channels.
The ports are drilled open in accordance with block channel design, bolted together, and valves screwed in to complete the block system. Strainers, check valves, and sensors are easily included in block construction.
INOX block systems support media to 180°C, 16bar and 600 mm2/s viscosity, and have high chemical resistance for process media including water, alcohols, oils, fuels, hydraulic fluids, salt solutions, alkali solutions, organic solvents, steam and air.
System configuration eliminates the use of elbows and t-adapters and reduces connections to a minimum.
Small footprint, flexible configuration and fast assembly make INOX systems ideal for manufactured blocks including temperature systems for injection moulding or die-casting tools, chemical dispensing in water or mineral processing, steam sterilisation systems, and any solution where high system capability and environmental integrity is necessary. Distributing, collecting and mixing systems with individual valve flow of up to 2.4m3/h are suited to INOX.
The cast 316L stainless steel body of INOX has integrated, self-adjusting packing glands to ensure high media tightness over the complete service life. The externally piloted valves have a compact design and are available with threaded, external threaded and welding connection ports.
Valves may be normally open or closed, with flow direction below the seat. INOX valves, block modules, bushing and other elements have PTFE valve seals and graphite gaskets.
