Minneapolis, MN — Valve bodies molded of high performance plastics by Minnesota Rubber and Plastics (MR&P) for South Bend Controls LLC are biocompatible to FDA and USP Class VI standards and perform well in high temperature and corrosive environments. Applications include medical equipment, clinical instrumentation, food processing, beverage dispensing and most other forms of flow control.
These 2-way and 3-way valves have wetted surfaces molded entirely of engineered, high performance materials such as PEEK, Ultem®, Radel®, Viton®-GF with FDA and UPS class VI approval. The valves withstand chemical attack by corrosive and biological fluids while remaining inert and maintaining the integrity of the fluid pathway.
The valves pictured are for a dialysis application and are configured to provide high flow with an exceptionally high tolerance to particulate matter and precipitates. Poppets and seats are configured to provide bubble-tight leakage characteristics.
