PFA Lined Diaphragm Valve
Built for the chemical industry, our PFA lined diaphragm valve for chemical industry use operates across a wide temperature range (-40°C to 200°C) and pressure ratings up to 10 bar. Designed as a corrosion resistant diaphragm valve, it offers outstanding durability in aggressive environments, including chlorine service.
Available in rising stem, rising handwheel, electric, or pneumatic actuators, our valves come with double-layer (TFM + EPDM) or triple-layer (PTFE+PVDF+EPDM) diaphragms to reduce diffusion and improve longevity. The PFA diaphragm valve for corrosive fluids ensures leak-tight sealing, simplified maintenance, and high endurance. Sizes range from DN15 to DN250 (½" to 10"), with both straight and weir types available.
Choose GreyTec’s lined diaphragm valves for dependable performance and efficient maintenance in corrosive media.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Ans. A PFA-lined diaphragm valve features a body lined with PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy alkanes) and a diaphragm made from PTFE, providing excellent corrosion resistance and low permeability. This makes it ideal for handling aggressive chemicals, where standard valves may not be suitable.
Ans. PFA lining offers high chemical resistance, a smooth surface that minimizes friction and fouling. The PFA lining acts as a barrier between the flowing medium and the valve's internal components, effectively shielding them from corrosive substances.
Yes, these valves generally require minimal maintenance. Since there are no frictional moving parts in this type of the valve, the valve body and inner lining remains intact for a long time. Regular inspection for wear and tear, along with routine cleaning, can help ensure their longevity. Another advantage is that the diaphragm can be replaced inline without dismounting the valve.
A key advantage of a diaphragm valve over a ball valve is that it uses a flexible diaphragm (membrane) to regulate liquid flow by moving up and down, making it well-suited for handling slurry liquids or those containing abrasive particles. In contrast, a ball valve relies on turning of a ball, and abrasive particles can get trapped between the ball and seat, and scratch the lining surface, eventually leading to its failure. Additionally, the diaphragm in this type of valve is replaceable for maintenance, reducing the need to replace the entire valve body. However, a drawback of diaphragm valves is that they typically have a higher pressure drop compared to similarly sized ball valves.
Yes, diaphragm valves are very well suited for abrasive or slurry applications. Because of their open design, particles do not get blocked and this prevents choking.
Yes, these valves find extensive application in Chlor-Alkali industries handling aggressive chemicals like hydrochloric acid and caustic soda.
Certainly! We offer Antistatic PFA lined Valves in Dupont's grade C 980 or 3M Dyneon's 8502 ESDZ. Choosing the correct material is crucial, as a grounding spring alone cannot dissipate static charge in a standard PFA grade, which is non-conductive.
We keep many valves in stock in our warehouse in Netherlands, India and USA and can ship them within a week.
Our diaphragm valves are available in numerous sizes DN15-DN250 (1/2"-10") providing a range of options to meet diverse industrial needs.
