Reliability, availability and low pricing are key features that make our replacement diaphragms attractive to reducing the total cost of ownership and minimizing costly downtime. Top Line diaphragms are interchangeable with key industry manufacturers when a threaded or bayonet type connection is required.
Certifications &
Approvals
Top-Flo® grade 1KS &
2KS diaphragms are fully compliant to FDA CFR Section (21) 177.2600 and
have been fully tested and certified in accordance with U.S. Pharmacopoeia
Class VI section (87) in-vitro and Section (88) in vivo biological reactivity
tests by the accredited NAMSA
Production
Top Line grade 1KS & 2KS diaphragms are manufactured utilizing a proprietary unique high pressure molding technique that ensures better density and is virtually non-permeable. More importantly, this process significantly increases the cycle life of the diaphragm under harsh conditions.
Traceability
All Top Line diaphragms are fully traceable to a specific batch of the molded compound. Test certificates and compound properties for each specific batch are recorded and maintained within the QA system. Diaphragms are physically identified with the date of manufacture and the compound identification code. Each Top-Flo® diaphragm valve is supplied with your choice of elastomer or TFM/elastomer backed materials. Diaphragms are completely compliant with the most recent FDA codes, USP standards and are fully traceable.
