Georg Fischer Type 546 Series: Type 233 Pneumatically Actuated without Manual Override - PVC \ FKM

The Type 233 series pneumatically actuated ball valves have the same features and benefits of the +GF+ Type 546 manual valves. The Type 233 is the ultimate choice for the high demands of the industrial world. It is available in PVC, CPVC, Polypropylene and PVDF material. The valve can be configured for throttling or for simple open/close functionality. The optional declutchable manual override is ideal for applications where emergency operation of the valve is required. Additionally, the electro-pneumatic positioner, stroke limiter, and feedback switches give flexibility for integration into a wide variety of applications.

Air-Operated Diaphragm
Series BSDA miniature air-operated diaphragm valves are designed for pressure applications with highly-corrosive or ultra-pure liquid systems when space is critical. The valve is ideal for a broad range of industrial applications, from electronics to chemical plants, commercial laundries, car wash operations etc. The standard valves are air pressure-to-open with spring return-to-close. Liquid line pressure assists in opening the valve. Not designed for vacuum service.                                                                                                          

Normally-Closed Operation
A 3-way air solenoid valve connection to the 1/8" NPT port is required to actuate the diaphragm valve. When air pressure (40 to 100 psi) is applied, the diaphragm valve opens and, when removed, spring force closes the valve.

 

Materials of Construction
With the series BSDA air-operated diaphragm valves, the standard diaphragm material is a combination of PTFE on the wetted side backed up with Viton® for strength and flexibility. Body materials available are PVC, CPVC, Polypropylene, PVDF and Teflon®.

The upper air section is always PVC.
