Application
ARC is an aseptic seat valve with PTFE diaphragm. It is available as a stop- or change-over valve. The valve is suited for aseptic operating conditions such as high sterilisation temperatures. ARC is characterised by excellent cleanability.

Working principle
ARC is operated by means of compressed air and can be supplied with or without spring return. Sterile stem sealing towards the atmosphere is ensured by a special designed PTFE/rubber diaphragm unit. The PTFE diaphragm does not allow product residues to build up on the product contact surface.

Standard Design
ARC is based on the SRC valve design. It consists of actuator, bonnet, stem with diaphragm unit and valve bodies. The change-over version is a two body design. The valve is assembled by means of clamp rings and a stem clip system for easy maintenance.
