Product Overview
The Burkert Type 2031 (part number 00557006) is a pneumatically operated diaphragm valve engineered for hygienic and industrial process fluid control. Manufactured by Burkert, a global leader in fluid control systems, this valve utilizes a compressed air actuated piston mechanism to deflect an elastomeric diaphragm against a valve seat, providing reliable on/off and throttling control of neutral, aggressive, and contaminated media. The diaphragm isolates the working fluid from the actuator and internal mechanism, ensuring zero dead-leg contamination and suitability for sterile process environments. This valve is a direct-fit component for OEM process skids, water treatment lines, and chemical dosing systems requiring precise, repeatable flow control.
