PATENTED FAMAT E.P. TECHNOLOGY Almost all FAMAT valves are based on our patented “EXPANDING PISTON TECHNOLOGY” . The patented system inside this piston allows the PTFE external coat to expand and insure a perfect tightness from vacuum up to full rating pressure 10 bar (145 psi). The advantage of having an expandable piston inside the valve is to eliminate the need for O-rings that can be damaged during valve operation, and consequently generate contamination (dust) for production. Another big advantage of our design is that In closed position, the piston will be flush with the connection point,...

CLOSED POSITION The piston is a flush fit to the reactor or dryer leaving no dead space (FIG. 1). A perfect seal is formed directly by the piston (9) against the body of the valve. SAMPLING PROCEDURE Turn the handwheel counter clockwise to lower the piston (9) to its open position. While the product flows 9 down into the sampling bottle (2), the operator can check the desired quantity of the product through the sight glass (1) ( FIG. 2 ). 2 1 FIG. 2 Turn the handwheel clockwise to bring back the piston (9) in its closed position. A firm final turn of the handwheel will give reliable sealing and...

This valve is used for products which could clog inside the dryer or vessel and block the piston. To eliminate the risk of this impeding product flow in to the sampling valve, FAMAT has developed the 125CC (FIG. 1). With this kind of valve type, the crust will be broken by the piston before the sample is taken. CRUST BREAKING 1. Remove the security device. 2. Turn the red handwheel clockwise to move the piston into the dryer to break the crust as shown on the picture ( FIG. 2 ). 3. Once the crust has been broken, proceed with the standard sampling (page 4) with the black handwheel to get the...
