Medical Equipment

• You can find SMC’s highly reliable process valves in use in a myriad of medical applications at present due to their exceptional chemical resistance, low consumption, and flow-through characteristics with minimal dead volume. Isolation valves are the preferred choice of valves for use in medical equipment as they can be used in applications requiring the use of pure water, reagents, sodium hypochlorite, and/or other chemicals.
  ◇Minimal contamination generated due to friction between moving parts
  ◇Less susceptible to solenoid heat generation
  ◇Minimal liquid accumulation and contamination
  ◇Suitable for the control of highly corrosive fluids and various other chemical solutions
  ◇Fluoropolymer, FFKM, and other materials known for their superior resistance to chemicals, such as reagents, and for their anti-corrosive properties are used for the materials of parts in contact with fluid. Materials with minimal organic matter elution (PEEK, etc.) are used.
  ◇Valves can be built into manifolds in order to save space in applications which require a large number of valves to be connected to air pressure.
