Requirement
An OEM making laboratory equipment
to test water quality was experiencing
an unacceptable level of leaks from
the valves that controlled samples and
reagent channels. They needed to improve
instrument performance by eliminating leaks
while at the same time reducing the total
cost of ownership.
Solution
IMI Precision Engineering integrated quality
IMI FAS Microsol® isolation valves with a
customer-specific manifold designed to fit
into the existing instrument footprint. Tests
showed that using the Microsol valves and
proper sealing materials eliminated leaks.
The valves also last 50% longer and use less
energy, reducing overall costs for end users.
Valve module controls samples,
reagents for chemical oxygen
demand (COD) test
