Ideal for hygienic applications demanding powered operation

Now in its second generation, the series K2P Powered Iris Valves have been specifically designed for automatic and remote applications, complimenting the popular manual versions.

The K2P has been developed for applications requiring a high level of hygiene and superb material flow control. This new Mucon Series K product range utilizes patented design features and moulded diaphragm technology already employed throughout the K-Valve range.
