Improve your Containment
Jul 13 2010
GEA Pharma Systems exhibited its Buck® containment technology at Technopharm 2010 showing its range of containment interfaces for the pharmaceutical industry. The BuckMC Valve uses only passive valves, driven
by a modular active unit. Until now it has been necessary to use one active and one passive split-valve technology to discharge product from an IBC safely. This works well when discharging to the process line however, if ingredients are to be transferred from one IBC to another, or from an IBC to a double cone dryer for example, it has always been necessary to use an active-to-active unit in between as an interface.
This is no longer necessary with the modular Buck MC Valve active unit. The Buck MC Valve is a simple method of transferring bulk active ingredients and chemicals that eliminates the need for a vacuum between the discs. It has very few moving parts, needs no lubrication and the product-touching parts can be released quickly by hand with a simple tool. Reducing the number of moving parts and standardising the components has allowed Buck to reduce the cost of the Buck MC Valve compared with competitive products.
