Overview

ASEPCO Weirless Radial diaphragm™ sterile access valve

Minimise hold-up volume, with two flow paths in one efficient valve.

Features and benefits

  • Patented radial diaphragm, eliminates entrapment for easy cleaning
  • Configured to suit with clamp-end or weld-end connections, or a secondary valve
  • Complete fluid isolation
  • Features 180 degree install angle with full drainability in multiple orientations
  • Simple Tri-Clamp assembly makes maintenance 80 % faster
  • No readjustment or retightening
  • Integrated travel stops
