Expanding Our Offerings: Introducing Resilient Seated Butterfly Valves

Stainless Steel Diaphragm Valves: A Growing Trend in Industrial Applications

Last week highlighted the rising demand for stainless steel diaphragm valves across various industrial sectors. Nearly every order assembled and tested at our UK facility featured stainless steel components, including a recent shipment of 29 DN25 Weir Type valves with GR97 (PTFE/Viton) diaphragms, ready to meet the exacting requirements of our clients.

Since introducing our stainless steel diaphragm valve range at KDV Flow, we’ve seen a global industry shift towards these valves in a broad range of applications. Initially, stainless steel valves were used primarily in aseptic environments, such as pharmaceuticals and food processing. However, their exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and adaptability have expanded their use to industries like chemical processing, water treatment, and more. This trend is driven by the need for equipment that can reliably withstand aggressive chemicals, extreme temperatures, and harsh conditions, while offering extended service life and reduced maintenance costs.

Benefits of Stainless Steel Diaphragm Valves:

  • Superior Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel’s natural resistance to corrosion makes it ideal for handling aggressive chemicals, caustic substances, and exposure to harsh environments, ensuring reliable performance and longer equipment life.
  • Enhanced Durability: With robust construction and the ability to withstand both high pressures and extreme temperatures, stainless steel valves offer extended operational lifespans and fewer maintenance requirements, reducing downtime and lowering costs.
  • Versatility in Customisation: Our stainless steel diaphragm valves can be customised with a variety of linings—such as PTFE, EPDM, or rubber—to enhance chemical compatibility for specific applications. Additionally, we offer a wide range of actuation options, including pneumatic, electric, and manual, to meet diverse operational needs.
  • Wide Range of Applications: From chemical processing to pharmaceutical production and food and beverage manufacturing, stainless steel diaphragm valves are trusted for their reliability and adaptability. For example, in pharmaceutical production, these valves maintain sterility and prevent contamination, while in chemical plants, they handle aggressive, corrosive substances without compromising performance.
