DSS – Normally Open Atmospheric Reference Valve
The DSS Series diaphragm valve is a GC module with two normally open shut-off valves and an atmospheric reference. The valve is totally free of springs, bellows, packing and lubricants in the process wetted area. Metal-to-metal seals to atmosphere ensure that there is no transport of undesirable elements into the flow stream. Elgiloy® diaphragms ensure the utmost in corrosion resistance and extended overall life span.
