FAMAT PATENTED EPT® EXPANDING PISTON TECHNOLOGY Almost all FAMAT valves are based on our patented Expanding Piston Technology EPT®. 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 is flush with the...

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONS Fig.l CLOSED POSITION The piston is flush with the reactor or dryer, leaving no dead space (Fig.l). 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 down into the sampling bottle (2), the operator can check the desired quantity of the product through the sight glass (1) (Fig.2). Turn the handwheel clockwise to bring back the piston (9) in its closed position. A firm Anal turn of the handwheel will give...

FAMAT ENGINEERED VALVES 125TC TRI-CLAMP EASY-CLEAN VALVEThis sampling valve has one 2.5'' Tri-Clamp (TC) near the handwheel (Fig. 1). It is called easy-clean because the piston can be removed from the valve housing with minimal effort (Fig. 2), allowing Full cleaning of inner surfaces of the valve's body between batches.

FAMAT ENGINEERED VALVES 125CC CRUST BREAKING VALVE the risk of this the piston will This valve is used for products that could clog inside the dryer or vessel and block the piston. To eliminate impeding product flow into the sampling valve, FAMAT has developed the 125CC. With this type of valve, break the crust before the sample is taken. 1. Remove the security device 2. Turn the red handwheel clockwise to move the piston into the dryer to break the crust 3. Once the crust has been broken, proceed with the standard sampling by means of the black handwheel, to get the sample inside the...

FAMAT ENGINEERED VALVES 125OEL HIGH CONTAINMENT VALVE This new compact OEL High-Containment sampling device (Fig.1) enables the removal of the sample under contained conditions. The OEL (Occupational Exposure Limits) describes the maximum concentration of a hazardous substance which can be tolerated in the air of the production room without any negative effect to the health of the operator (Fig.2).

FAMAT ENGINEERED VALVES 125AUT AUTOMATIC VALVEStandard sampling valve with a double acting pneumatic actuator. Proximity switch detects the open / closed position of the valve. Recommended spare parts Note: the size of the connection flanges is detailed at page 28.

FAMAT ENGINEERED VALVES 125M HIGH TEMPERATURE VALVE The 125M sampling valve is equipped with a metal piston (Stainless Steel, Hastelloy®) for sampling process up to 300°C (572° F). Unlike the PTFE or PEEK piston, the metal piston has a high temperature gasket around it. In order to keep the tightness, the gasket is retracting in a groove during the opening and closing operations of the valve. Only when the valve is completely closed by means of the final turn of the handwheel, the gasket will ensures sealing against the wall of the valve. Tightness from vacuum up to 10 bar (145 psi)....
