Baumann™ 83000 and 84000 Sanitary Valves
Do your control valves prevent contaminant build up?
The Baumann 83000 and Baumann 84000 sanitary valves are designed to accurately control high purity fluids and
gases without contamination between batches. These sanitary valves have tight control of flow rates by providing
high positioning resolution. The valve bodies are designed to be self draining to prevent contaminant build up. The
uniquely designed diaphragm in the Baumann 84000 allows for the control of fluids that require low shearing effects.
In contrast, a typical parabolic plug design results in high shear which can damage biological cells, add bubbles to a
film coating, or change the consistency of a food or cosmetic product.
APPLICATION: Beer-feed line control
CHALLENGE: Overfilling and underfilling of kegs and flow rate inconsistencies. Plant managers felt they were
wasting up to 150 liters/day across all ten fill lines.
BENEFITS: The Baumann 84000 sanitary valve with a FIELDVUE DVC2000 instrument is used to provide
consistent flow control.
RESULTS: Fill rates on each of the ten fill lines increased from 3 kegs per minute to 3.15 kegs per minute and the
brewery achieved additional sales of $18,360 per day!

Baumann 85000 Sanitary Pinch Valve
Can you repeat tight control?
The Baumann 85000 sanitary pinch valve provides accurate and repeatable positioning to achieve unparalleled flow
control. This sanitary valve has no physical contact with the process. The valve body cradles the process tubing which
eliminates the need for a liner, thus eliminating the need for testing a liner for leachables and extractables. Reducing
risks for cross-contamination can save biotech companies millions of dollars in lost batch product.
Baumann 85000 Key Features
• Automated pinch valve
• Up to 140 psi
• Tubing sizes up to .75 inches
PROVEN RESULTS
APPLICATION: Automated trans-membrane pressure (TMP) control
CHALLENGE: Pinching mechanism needs to provide good control, experienced issues with competitor’s products.
BENEFITS: PlantWeb
there is improved batch control, reduced operating cost, and lower financial risk.
RESULTS: Faster, more accurate validation resulting in improved operations.

Baumann 87000 FLEXSLEEV Sanitary Valve
Can your control valve system handle sanitary slurry applications?
The Baumann 87000 FLEXSLEEV sanitary valve is highly recommended for fluids containing particulates such as
glucose. This sanitary valve has the ability to control low flow rates and, like the 83000 and 84000, it is self draining,
preventing contaminant build up. Process fluids flow around the outside of the tube resulting in low shear effects and
therefore is ideal for use with suspended media. The 87000 prevents “dewatering” and clogging that often occurs in
typical metal plug designs. This results in more uniform products and reduces unscheduled maintenance shutdowns.
APPLICATION: Nutrient feed to a bioreactor. A water and glucose mix that is fed to the cells to allow them to grow.
CHALLENGE: Ability to pass glucose crystals. Also, required tight shutoff, wide rangeability, and an inline
configuration.
BENEFITS: The Baumann 87000 with a FIELDVUE DVC2000 provides accurate control and tight shutoff of the
sanitary slurry process fluid.
RESULTS: Nutrients were fed to the cells at the right rate, which allowed them to grow.

Baumann 89000 Sanitary Valve
Do you need a sanitary control valve that can handle large flow rates for your process?
The Baumann 89000 sanitary valve is well suited for the continuous control of sterile steam or water for injection.
This sanitary valve offers tight control of large flow rates while protecting the process fluid from contamination. The
stainless steel construction makes it ideal in corrosive environments. This sanitary valve also includes a self draining
valve body which prevents contamination between batches.
APPLICATION: Water for injection (WFI) back pressure control valve.
CHALLENGE: To prevent contamination of the water by back-siphoning.
BENEFITS: The Baumann 89000 sanitary valve is used to provide water for injection. It provides a drainable,
electro-polished sanitary interior and has a modified equal percentage flow for optimum
performance.
RESULTS: This valve provides up to 6 inches and high flow capacities with wide rangeability. It controls constant
back pressure in the WFI distribution system with multiple user points.
