White Paper: Diaphragm Valve Design To Assist in cGMP Compliance

The inherent need to increase product yields, product purity levels and system productivity in pharmaceutical and bioprocessing process applications, while maintaining or reducing costs, is a major challenge that confronts project and operations personnel on a daily basis. This article will discuss current technologies available for the manufacture of weir-type diaphragm valves. It will concentrate on the various body manufacturing methods, process body fabrications, multiport valve designs and modular valve assemblies that greatly reduce contact surfaces and hold-up volumes.
