The Parker X-Valve® is a compact, 8 mm wide miniature pneumatic solenoid valve that combines multiple pneumatic functions in a single, space-saving package. The valve is made from lightweight PBT plastic and is specifically designed for portable applications where both space and energy consumption are severely limited. The design is suitable for both manifold and barbed-tube connections and is available in 2-way normally closed or 3-way universal versions. X-Valve® provides a flexible and efficient solution for compact systems without compromising performance.

The Parker MD PRO is a miniature 2-way, normally closed (NC) proportional valve. It controls gas flow proportional to the input stream for flow rates up to 56 slpm. When used with closed loop feedback, the MD PRO is an economical solution that provides repeatable pressure and flow control. The Parker MD PRO is ideal for applications such as respiratory therapy, anesthesia delivery and patient monitoring equipment.

The Parker HF PRO is a miniature 2-way, normally closed (NC) high flow proportional valve. It controls gas flow proportional to the input stream and can deliver flow rates up to 60 slpm at 50 psig. The valve can be controlled with either DC or pulse width modulation. It can also be used in conjunction with a closed loop to provide optimal system performance. The Parker HF Pro miniature proportional valve is an ideal choice for applications requiring repeatable pressure and flow control, such as respiratory and patient monitoring applications.

The Parker VSO® Low Flow valve provides improved flow control for applications where precise flow control is required between 0 and 500 sccm. Like the VSO Miniature Proportional Valve, the VSO® Low Flow Miniature Proportional Valve provides precise flow control of gas in proportion to the input flow. The valve can be controlled with either DC or pulse width modulation along with closed loop control to deliver optimum system performance. Along with its ability to provide precise control over a wide range of media, the VSO® Low Flow miniature proportional valve is ideal for manufacturers of gas chromatography and mass spectrometry equipment.

The Parker VSO® MAX HP Series is a miniaturized, high-flow proportional valve that provides flow capacity to meet your OEM application needs. The valve delivers a wide range of controllable flows while consuming 25 % less energy than comparable miniature proportional valves. This helps to save battery time. The VSO® MAX HP Model 2 delivers 200 slpm flow at 45 PSI and is designed for higher operating pressures of 120 psi (8.27 bar), which is common in systems without a regulator. Model 4 delivers a flow of 180 slpm at 25 PSI and is designed for higher flow at lower pressure, which is common in systems with regulators. This allows for a smaller and more elegant medical device design. It also offers potential savings as well as three standard control voltage ranges (5, 12 and 24 VDC).

The VSO® LowPro is a miniature proportional valve that regulates the flow rate of inert gases at pressures up to 100 PSIG (6.9 bar). Typical flow rates up to 57 SLPM with a typical power requirement of 1 watt at room temperature. With a width of only 16 mm and a height of 14 mm, the valve can be mounted in the smallest portable units. This improves both performance, size and weight. The valve has orifice sizes from 0.030 inch (0.76 mm) up to 0.080 inch (2.03 mm). It weighs only 12 g. Despite this, VSO® LowPro can perform the same function as valves three times its size, without compromising performance. Assembly requires only a simple, machined manifold.

The Parker VSO® miniature proportional valve provides improved flow control for applications where precise flow control is required up to 56 slpm. The VSO® valve provides precise flow control of gas in proportion to the input flow. The valve can be controlled with either DC or pulse width modulation along with closed loop control to provide optimum system performance. Along with its ability to provide precise control over varying temperatures and media types, the VSO® miniature proportional valve is ideal for medical and analytical equipment manufacturers.

PROPOR HC sterile grade filters are specifically designed for efficient and cost-effective filtration of difficult-to-filter solutions.

TETPOR PLUS filters are made entirely of fluoropolymers, making them highly resistant to a wide range of aggressive chemicals. TETPOR PLUS filter cartridges are specifically designed for the filtration of liquids and gases in the bulk pharmaceutical industry, the chemical industry and biopharmaceutical processes where particle separation, bioburden reduction and guaranteed sterility are required. The increased use of ozonation in the treatment of WFI systems has highlighted compatibility issues with vent filters based on standardized polypropylene components. The introduction of a fully validated TETPOR PLUS filter cartridge with sterilization-grade 0.2 μm membrane provides long-term and safe performance in these applications. It also has the added benefit that filter integrity can be verified by water ingress testing. The high pore volume of the single layer PTFE membrane ensures an excellent combination of flow rate and retention. TETPOR PLUS series are available in a variety of configurations. For further information, please refer to the technical data sheet of the product.

PROCLEAR PP+ filters are designed to provide excellent retention and dirt holding capacity in pharmaceutical pre-filtration applications. Polypropylene-based filter media with optimized depth structure provide excellent retention and dirt holding properties, while ensuring broad chemical compatibility.
