ITT Pure-Flo tank-bottom diaphragm valve.
The Pure-Flo tank-bottom valve mounts at the bottom outlet of a vessel so the tank can drain or be sampled through a diaphragm valve while minimizing the internal sump and eliminating the long branch created by a separate valve and nozzle. Optional CIP/SIP porting can be incorporated when the vessel cleaning strategy requires it.
What ITT Pure-Flo tank-bottom diaphragm valve is—and where it fits.
The Pure-Flo tank-bottom valve mounts at the bottom outlet of a vessel so the tank can drain or be sampled through a diaphragm valve while minimizing the internal sump and eliminating the long branch created by a separate valve and nozzle. Optional CIP/SIP porting can be incorporated when the vessel cleaning strategy requires it.
Where it fits
Use it for bioreactors, hold tanks, and other high-purity vessels where complete drainage and a compact outlet matter. Tank geometry, outlet size, body orientation, diaphragm, actuator, surface finish, and any CIP/SIP port must be engineered together.
What to confirm
Valve size, end connections, orientation, drain angle, material, surface finish, diaphragm material, actuator or bonnet style, and documentation expectations should all be checked before quoting.
How Triplex helps
Triplex helps translate the process problem into a practical ITT body selection so the valve package fits the line, the cleaning method, and the maintenance plan.
What Triplex will want to know.
Good valve recommendations come from process context. A few details up front prevent a lot of expensive back-and-forth later.
| Selection point | Why it matters | Triplex note |
|---|---|---|
| Process purpose | Shutoff, sample, purge, drain, divert, tank outlet, or aseptic barrier duty changes the correct body geometry. | Start with what the valve has to do in the process, not just the valve size. |
| Cleanability and hold-up | Dead legs, drainability, and internal volume can matter as much as pressure and temperature. | Send sketches or photos when the valve location is part of a skid or vessel connection. |
| Topworks and diaphragm | The body decision should be made with bonnet/actuator and diaphragm material in mind. | Triplex can help pair the body with manual or pneumatic operation and the right diaphragm review. |
