New BioPharm Application Module from CRANE ChemPharma Flow Solutions

Featuring interactive BioPharm process maps (i.e. Bioreactor, CIP [Clean in Place], Filtration and Chromatography), this interactive online platform guides the user through bioblock valve configuration examples for improving cleanability and process fluid handling. Other tools that can be found include an interactive table of P&ID block orientations that can increase the speed and efficiency of valve selection for time-sensitive BioPharm projects.

CRANE ChemPharma’s bundled solutions of trusted products (like those from its Saunders® brand) for the BioPharm, API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients), hygienic and industrial applications are highlighted throughout the module. This new addition to the CRANE ChemPharma website provides valuable training for distributors, engineers, and students on where and how complicated bioblock valves can be used within critical BioPharm processes. www.cranebiopharm.com

Solenoid Valves: Direct Acting vs. Pilot-Operated

While presenting in a recent VMA Valve Basics 101 Course in Houston, I found myself in a familiar role: explaining solenoid valves (SOVs) to attendees. (I work with solenoids so much that one VMA member at that conference joked that I needed to be wearing an I Heart Solenoids t-shirt). During the hands-on “petting zoo” portion of the program, which involves smaller groups of attendees, one of the most frequently asked questions I get from people came up: What’s the difference between direct-acting and pilot-operated SOVs, and how do we make a choice?
The Diverse Role Valves Play in the Chemical Industry

The chemical industry is extremely diverse with more than 60,000 known products. Like all process industries, the chemical industry needs valves designed for safe, efficient and reliable process operation.
Understanding Torque for Quarter-Turn Valves

Valve manufacturers publish torques for their products so that actuation and mounting hardware can be properly selected.
