A diaphragm valve controls fluid flow using a flexible rubber diaphragm. It is designed to regulate, and in some instances, adjust the flow rate of fluids. The valve operates through the diaphragm's expansion and contraction under pressure, effectively managing fluid passage. Additionally, the diaphragm acts as a barrier between the valve body and the fluid, ensuring component protection.
Widely used in various industries such as medical devices, water treatment, chemical processing, and food and beverage, diaphragm valves offer significant benefits including the prevention of fluid contamination and rapid sealing to close the valve.
