Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed technical specifications and features of Richter Sampling Valves, specifically the PA/F and PA/S series, designed for safe and representative sampling in various industries such as chemical and pharmaceutical.
Fields of Application: These valves are suitable for sampling corrosive, pure, and slightly solids-laden media during processes, prior to container filling, transport, or process feeding, and for stock monitoring.
Operating Ranges: The valves operate within a temperature range of -60 to 200 °C (-75 to 400 °F) and pressure from vacuum to a maximum of 16 bar (235 psi).
Product Features: Key features include a top-entry design for easy maintenance, safety hand lever actuation, anti-adhesive surfaces, external corrosion protection, and optional stainless steel protective cabinets. The valves are designed to prevent clogging and ensure representative sampling without residue formation.
Materials and Construction: The PA/F series features a ductile iron body with PFA lining, while the PA/S series is made of stainless steel. The valves include components such as PTFE bellows for hermetic sealing and various stainless steel parts for durability.
Design and Options: The valves offer options like body heating, handwheel actuation, and flat plugs for solids-laden media. They can be equipped with pneumatic or electric actuators and customized bottle connections.
Comparison with Ball Valves: Unlike conventional sampling ball valves, Richter valves are cavity-free, self-closing, and feature a bellows sealing, eliminating the need for multiple rinsing and reducing sedimentation risks.
Installation and Dimensions: The document provides detailed installation dimensions and weights for different valve sizes, adhering to ISO and DIN standards.
Additional Features: The valves can be equipped with adapters for septum bottles, allowing sampling in high-purity media environments. Various adapter designs are available for different installation orientations and bottle sizes.
