High Containment Docking Valve - Automatic
- Product Code:
STVAL-ANHCA
-
Andocksysteme offers a complete range of split butterfly valves and related systems for safe handling of potent compounds. The valves are offered in two seal type versions, depending on the containment level (or if solvents are used): White EPDM or white PTFE (teflon), both are FDA quality materials.
Andocksysteme valves have been tested in three separate private studies in accordance with ISPE SMEPAC protocols (Abbott Labs, Hoffmann-La Roche, and Novartis) and have achieved the following results
Valve with PTFE seal NOT using vacuum extraction: ~500 nanogram level of containment (ETWA 8 hours).
Valve with EPDM seal using vacuum extraction: ~0.4 nanogram level of containment (ETWA 8 hours).
Andocksysteme offers some key advantages:
- +/- 14mm docking tolerances on the X/Y axis,
- Planar (Y axis) offset >30mm (with cylinder system),
- Product contacting parts remove from active station in 1 minute - no air or electrical connections to remove.

High Containment Sampling Valve
The Andocksysteme ASAM sampling system is a unique method for obtaining powder or liquid samples under very high containment conditions.
ASAM 1 - "Jar" sample unit for larger sample capture.
The system works similar to their split valve technology - eg. active and passive valves, however, in lieu of a butterfly valve, the ASAM system uses an active ball-half with a cup machined into the ball-half. When the active valve is closed, it forms a near-flush surface into the process equipment. The sample is captured into a small container, typically glass with a protective steel cage. The container is attached to a passive valve.
ASAM 2 - Thief sample unit for small sample capture.
Similar to the design of the ASAM 1 unit except there is no "cup" in the active ball-half to gather powder, instead the active ball-half has a small hole in which a powder thief can be inserted. The hole is made into the "side" of the ball, thus when the active ball-half is closed the hole is hidden away. The thief is held in a plastic tube-bag, which is joined.

Spherical Disk (Segment Ball) Valve
Highest quality valves for the highest requirements. Spherical disk valves (a.k.a. segmented ball valves) consists of a housing and a "segment or part" of a ball that is supported on two sides by maintenance-free bearings and sealed with an inflatable or static seal. The segment can have a spherical top or flat top (for a flush mounted interior surface as required by many mixers). A 90 degree rotation of the segment allows even difficult flowing products to pass the valve’s full bore in a short amount of time. During the rotation, the segment moves freely past the spherically shaped housing. A spherical disk valve can be used both as an inlet and an outlet valve and can be used to shut a stream of flowing product.
Andocksysteme spherical disk valves are the most flexible available on the market today. As each application is different, they offer full customization for each valve.
The valves are specifically designed for clean applications such as pharmaceuticals, foods and high purity chemicals. All valves can be CIP (cleaned in place with output the need to take apart). To achieve CIP the valves are supplied with special internal CIP nozzles.
The most commonly used applications in which the spherical disk valves are used include: conical blenders, mixers and dryers, reactors, double conical dryers, horizontal blenders and dryers, agitator vessels, and in piping.
High-level equipment with high-tech components. A few characteristics that the segment ball valve distinguishes itself from other valves are: high-grade seals; vacuum and pressure tight; full bore without any restrictions; a long service life, even at high and low temperatures; CIP; no dead space in product contacted areas and a high demand of quality for product contacted surfaces.
Construction Materials:
- Housing and Disk: AISI 316L stainless steel, Hastellloy HC 22, Allow 59 or Titan,
- Seal Materials (FDA/USDA compliant): EPDM, Viton (FKM), or Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM),
- Pressure: Up to 150 p.s.i.,
All valves are supplied with material, finish and passivation certification.
Seal types: The valves are supplied with either inflatable seals or static seals. The inflatable version not only assures 100% gas and liquid sealing but also is the best solution for abrasive products which would otherwise require a metal seat or frequent seal changes (and potentially contaminate your products).
Actuation: Manual hand lever (for small valves), spring return (single acting) or double acting. Positioners can be added and the valve can also be used for dosing materials.

Vacuum Rotary Valve
The vacuum rotary valve (model VR8V) offers a special "super hygienic" design for metering of your products. We offer both pocket-by-pocket control or simple on-off. Unlike traditional vacuum rotary valves, the Co.Ra valve weighs only a few pounds and assembles without tools!
Applications:
- Constant feeding of any process equipment requiring a vacuum seal,
- Metering of powders into mixing tanks,
- Any application that needs a rotary valve with positive shut off.
