CONCENTRIC SPLIT DIAPHRAGM (CSD) VALVE ALSO CALLED IRIS VALVE
ELECTRIC OR PNEUMATIC ACTUATION WITH POSITIONER


Flow Control Applications:
- Sugar Industry: Sugar Syrups, Molasses, Massecuites, Lime (Caoh) Slurry, Etc.
- Pharma And Chemical: Slurries, Multiple Kinds Of Viscous Fluids, And Free-Flowing Materials Or Powders Or Granules
- Wastewater Treatment Plants: Wastewater From Municipalities And Industries, Air Flow Regulation For Aeration Control Application
- Pulp And Paper Industry: Paper Pulp And Fluids With Fibrous Suspensions
- Free-Flowing Granules Or Pellets: Salt, Powders, Grain, Polymer Granules With A Particle Size Between 0.5Mm And 10Mm
- Air And Gas: Industrial Hot And Cold Air, Non-Corrosive Gases
Flow Profile Of Concentric Split Diaphragm Valve:
Gravity Discharge Installation:

Inline Installation: The Flow Profile Through The Split Diaphragm’S Center, Minimizes Pressure Drop, Noise, And Flow Turbulence Throughout The Entire Flow Regulation Range

Other Applications:
- Controlled Gravity Flow Of Grains Or Pellets Or Powders With A Particle Size Between 0.5 Mm And 10 Mm
- Ideal For Controlling Gravity Flow Control Of Flow Of Slurries / Semi-Solids / Concrete And Other Fluids
- Ideal For Ratio Control Of Two Or More Ingredients Falling In A Vessel
- Hot And Cold Airflow Control
Characteristics And Advantages Of IRIS OR CSD Valve:
- Rugged build quality for long life and frequent throtteling and on / off Operations.
- Heavy-duty rugged valve construction absorbs all shocks and vibrations.
- Valve internals designed to operate under heavy media loads.
- Precise flow control without hysteresis due to the concentric opening of the Split diaphragm.
- Energy saving whilst flow control due to free passage through concentric Opening.
- Low noise and no flow turbulence throughout the full flow control range.
- Very Low Maintenance.
- High Flow Capacity
- Lower Pressure Loss Than Other Valve Types Due To Free Passage Through Concentric Opening.
