The Type 2031 valve bodies are available in investment cast or forged stainless steel (F316L or Al6XN) or in plastic (PVDF, PVC, and PP), with process connections of 9/16 in. to 2 in. Diaphragm options of EPDM or PTFE/EPDM ensure hermetic isolation of fluid from the corrosion resistant pneumatic actuator. Temperature ratings are +14°F to +284°F with pressure from 0-140 PSI.

The revolutionary TOP Control™ head offers accurate and programmable proportional control options, allowing the unique characteristics of a diaphragm valve to be precisely controlled. Set point adjustment may be done at the valve or externally via standard analog input signals. Designed for accurate control of pressure, temperature or flow the TOP Control system accepts direct sensor inputs including RTD, 4-20 Ma. and frequency. Instant connectivity to Fieldbus systems includes AS-I, Profibus and DeviceNET. Burkert TOP Control™ head units are easily linked to existing process automation systems for simpler process design and validation. These features significantly reduce installation and start-up times, cutting up to 40% of the Total Cost of Ownership.
