A sanitary angle seat valve is a durable, low-maintenance valve made of stainless steel that opens at an angle for full flow. It’s controlled by air(pneumatically) or manually and works well with hot, thick, or gaseous substances, making it ideal for many industries like biopharmaceuticals, food, chemicals, beverages, dairy, and personal care. These valves come in two types: one that stays closed and another that stays open. They’re built to high health standards, with a shiny, polished finish on all parts that touch the product. They're great for frequent use and can help prevent water hammer, which is a kind of plumbing noise, when used a certain way.
