Updated Actuator Features Interchangeability of PTFE and Elastomer Diaphragms

By Pharmaceutical Processing | April 16, 2010

The Advantage 2.0 actuator is an improvement on the current Advantage actuator series. The Advantage actuator line is a diaphragm driven, compact, lightweight actuator designed to meet the stringent space constraints of the bioprocessing and pharmaceutical industries. The unit is designed as an on/off pneumatic actuator available with three modes of closure. All of the Advantage 2.0 design changes were made to enhance the performance of the actuator. A new floating tube nut and stainless steel compressor configuration allows for inter-changeability of PTFE and elastomer diaphragms. Benefits include: compressor system optimizes diaphragm life by reducing diaphragm actuation forces; The tube nut and slotted compressor design allows for quick changeovers from EPDM to PTFE for passivation protocols or application changes without actuator disassembly; one bonnet for all valve configurations; simplified valve ordering; compressor system eliminates compressor pin maintenance; reduces stock variants.
