Chemical processing environments present complex challenges. Whether managing aggressive acids, alkalis, or solvents, engineers need valves that maintain chemical resistance and reliability over the long term.
KDV Flow, with global reach and engineering expertise, provides diaphragm valve solutions engineered to withstand corrosive fluids, elevated temperatures, and abrasive materials without compromising safety or performance accuracy.
Engineered for Demanding Chemical Processes
Diaphragm valves are often selected for their straightforward design and reliable sealing capabilities. KDV’s weir and straight-through diaphragm valves deliver tight shut-off, effective throttling, and dependable performance in a range of chemical processing applications.
For industries that demand safe flow control under harsh operating conditions, options such as PTFE, ETFE, and other specialist linings provide strong chemical resistance. These materials isolate corrosive media from the valve body, preventing material degradation and extending service life.
Resistance to Aggressive Chemicals
KDV’s lined diaphragm valves are compatible with a wide spectrum of aggressive chemicals, including sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sodium hydroxide, and various organic solvents. Their non-reactive surfaces also reduce contamination risks, making them well-suited for water treatment, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and chemical dosing.
For applications where contamination prevention is critical, KDV offers designs aligned with industry requirements, such as those found in chemical dosing solutions.
Precision in Chemical Dosing and System Integration
Smooth, turbulence-free flow paths in KDV diaphragm valves support accurate dosing performance. Compact, modular bodies can be paired with pneumatic or electric actuators, integrating seamlessly into automated dosing and monitoring systems.
Manufacturing and stocking facilities in Australia, the UK, Thailand, and the USA ensure reliable product availability. A variety of DIN, ANSI, and JIS flange configurations support compatibility with international piping standards.
Maintenance and Lifecycle Efficiency
Designed for extended service intervals, these valves allow quick diaphragm replacement and straightforward maintenance. Modular actuator assemblies simplify upgrades or changes in control strategy, reducing downtime.
From corrosive dosing lines to complex synthesis processes, KDV Flow’s diaphragm valves continue to deliver consistent control. They are also applied in sectors where safe handling of challenging chemicals is a primary concern.
