VALVES
Models SG5340, SG5350
Ultra-Fine, Low Flow, Metering Valves
Designed for extremely low flow gas and liquid applications, these valves provide smooth, nonpulsing flow control which is always proportional and absolutely constant at any given setting. They are particularly suited to the most precise control requirements of gas chromatography.
Six different needle tapers offer a wide choice of flow ranges. Fifteen revolutions of the adjusting handle (“fully opened” to “fully closed”) provide excellent resolution. The valves will shut off bubble-tight and cannot be
damaged by overtightening.
Two Models are available. Model SG5340 has a nickel-plated brass body for non-corrosive service, and Model SG5350 has a Type 316 Stainless Steel body
for corrosive applications. These valves are provided standard with mounting nuts for panel mounting applications.
