FAQs

What is a sanitary ball valve used for?

Our Sanitary Ball Valves are designed to deliver precise flow control and secure shutoff in hygienic processing systems. They are commonly used in food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and specialty chemical industries where product purity is critical.

How do I choose the right size sanitary valve?

Choosing the right size sanitary valve involves more than just matching the pipe diameter. You must also account for flow rate, pressure, and the specific application to ensure efficient, hygienic, and safe operation. An improperly sized valve can cause pressure drops, cavitation, and poor flow control. For assistance in choosing the right sanitary valve or other products, contact us for support.

Can sanitary hangers support all types of valves?

Both standard and custom options are available to meet unique requirements. Valves can be configured with different sizes, end connections, and materials to match the specifications of your system or application.
