Heavy-Duty 20mm Metered Valve for Food Processing with Sanitary Design
Product Description:
Ensure food safety and processing efficiency with our heavy-duty 20mm metered valve, built for the demanding food and beverage industry. This sanitary dosing valve features a 316L stainless steel construction and a crevice-free design, complying with FDA and NSF standards for food-grade applications. Designed for production managers and sanitation engineers, it dispenses precise amounts of flavorings, colorants, and sterilizing agents while preventing contamination. The metered valve mechanism includes a CIP (Clean-in-Place) compatible design, reducing downtime for cleaning. With a wide temperature tolerance from -20°C to 120°C, it performs reliably in freezing or pasteurization environments. The transparent flow window allows real-time monitoring of dispensing volumes, ensuring consistent product quality.
