Product Overview
The Flush Bottom Valve by Neza Engineering Co. is designed for complete and leak-free draining of tanks, vessels, and reactors without any dead space. Its unique bottom-mounted design ensures zero hold-up and efficient flow control of fluids, slurries, or viscous materials. It plays a critical role in pharmaceutical, chemical, food processing, and cosmetic industries where product purity, hygiene, and complete drainage are essential.
Flush bottom valves are installed at the bottom outlet of tanks and vessels to facilitate complete discharge, preventing product wastage, contamination, and manual handling.
Key Features
1. Zero Hold-Up Drainage
The most significant feature is complete vessel emptying. The seat is flush with the tank bottom or outlet line, ensuring no residue is left behind—essential for sanitary applications.
2. Sanitary and GMP Design
All internal surfaces are crevice-free and polished, maintaining CIP/SIP compliance for pharmaceutical and food applications. Smooth bore and precision seat design eliminate contamination risks.
3. High-Performance Sealing
Fitted with high-grade PTFE, EPDM, or Silicone seats, the valve guarantees zero leakage under high pressure and temperature. The seals are suitable for sterile and hygienic environments.
4. Multiple Actuation Options
Available with manual handwheel, pneumatic actuator, or hydraulic piston for remote or automatic operation, especially in large vessels or hazardous environments.
5. Rugged Construction
Made using SS 316L or SS 304, the valve resists corrosion, cleaning chemicals, and pressure cycling. The robust body ensures long service life and minimal maintenance.
Types of Flush Bottom Valves We Offer
Tank Bottom Valve (Bottom Entry)
Designed to be mounted directly at the bottom of tanks or reactors for draining liquids and slurries.Angle Type Flush Valve (Side Entry)
Mounted on the side or bottom with an angular outlet for directional discharge.Piston Type Flush Valve
Piston moves linearly to open or close the valve; ideal for clean and smooth operation.Plug Type Flush Valve
Ideal for thicker fluids or pastes; allows direct discharge with minimal blockages.
Applications of Flush Bottom Valve
Pharmaceutical Reactors and Crystallizers: For sterile and zero-hold up discharges.
Food & Beverage Storage Tanks: Handling of juices, syrups, sauces, and creams.
Chemical Reactors: Discharge of acids, solvents, and viscous compounds.
Biotech & Cosmetic Manufacturing: Creams, gels, and ointments that require clean tank-emptying.
