Baumann 87000 FLEXSLEEV Sanitary Valve
Can your control valve system handle sanitary slurry applications?
The Baumann 87000 FLEXSLEEV sanitary valve is highly recommended for fluids containing particulates such as
glucose. This sanitary valve has the ability to control low flow rates and, like the 83000 and 84000, it is self draining,
preventing contaminant build up. Process fluids flow around the outside of the tube resulting in low shear effects and
therefore is ideal for use with suspended media. The 87000 prevents “dewatering” and clogging that often occurs in
typical metal plug designs. This results in more uniform products and reduces unscheduled maintenance shutdowns.
Baumann 87000 Key Features
• Aseptic
• Handle vacuum service
• Class VI shutoff
• ASME BPE Class III
• Clean-in-Place (CIP) / Steam/Sanitize-in-Place (SIP)
PROVEN RESULTS
APPLICATION: Nutrient feed to a bioreactor. A water and glucose mix that is fed to the cells to allow them to grow.
CHALLENGE: Ability to pass glucose crystals. Also, required tight shutoff, wide rangeability, and an inline
configuration.
BENEFITS: The Baumann 87000 with a FIELDVUE DVC2000 provides accurate control and tight shutoff of the
sanitary slurry process fluid.
RESULTS: Nutrients were fed to the cells at the right rate, which allowed them to grow.
