Choosing your valve depends on many diferent variables.
Please note:
This list is to provide a basic guideline.
The viscosity is not necessarily a limiting factor. Sampling more viscous
products is possible, it may just take longer – depending on other
factors, like the min/max. process pressure.
Make sure to check size and hardness of the contained particles in order
to avoid any blockages. Bigger particles could still pass through the
valve if sof enough – also depending on the process pressure.
If in doubt about the right valve for your application, please contact
KEOFITT or your local KEOFITT representative.
