R48
Product information
The weld-in flange can be custom supplied and is welded to the tank. The passage of the valve is exactly the ID of the outgoing ASME BPE tubing so no contamination can occur and the system is cleanable between production batches. Construction materials are carefully selected for low ferrite content and sulfur content is controlled to prevent rouging and corrosion.
These ball valves feature the patented Total HermetiX™ spindle seal certified to ISO 15848-1 (500,000 cycles) for fugitive emissions. They come standard with double housing seals and feature USP Class VI compliant polymers and elastomers.

Our Habonim Series R48 Habonim sanitary bottom valves are widely used in and on tanks, reactors and filter dryers in which Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) are mixed.
Due to a fire safe design without the use of graphite seals, these ball valves offer the unique combination of food grade approvals ( (USP VI / FDA / EN 1935) and fire safe (API 607) certification. These ball valves are available with ETO extended tube connections or tri-clamp connections. The internal finish is possible in SF1, SF5 and SF4.
