Miniature Shear Valve

Kloehn miniature valves offer a wide variety of fluid flow possibilities for the fluidic designer. The valves are light weight requiring minimum space (less than 2 cubic inches). The valve housings come in two body types, Distribution and Non- Distribution for both loop and distribution type flow patterns.

Ceramic Valves

The use of ceramic products in many applications is gaining great acceptance. Kloehn Inc. has introduced an option for the designer who is concerned with the needs of varying temperatures, pressures, and inertness. Our ceramic products are manufactured from 99.9% pure alumina ceramic components and can increase valve life to millions of cycles. Since all valves are machined and fired in our facility, we can easily modify the overall geometry to accommodate mounting configurations and space limitations.

Ceramic valves offer flexibility in choosing port sizes and flow paths, which eliminates possible leaking due to deforming of the inner workings by the over-tightening of syringes or fittings
