Steriflow Valve is a leading manufacturer of high-performance sanitary valves and pressure regulators designed for clean, sterile, and hygienic process environments. As part of Richards Industrials, Steriflow solutions are widely used across pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, food & beverage, and healthcare industries where precision and contamination control are critical. At Premier Control Technologies (PCT), we supply a full range of Steriflow products, supporting customers across the UK and Ireland with expert selection, specification, and application support.
Why Choose Steriflow?
Steriflow products are specifically engineered for aseptic and hygienic applications, ensuring reliable pressure control while maintaining strict cleanliness and compliance standards. Key benefits include:
- Designed for clean and sterile processes: Minimises contamination risk.
- High precision pressure control: Ideal for low-flow and critical applications.
- FDA & pharmaceutical compliance: Suitable for validated, high-purity systems.
- Superior cleanability: Crevice-free, self-draining designs for CIP (Clean-in-Place) and SIP (Sterilisation-in-Place) systems.
- Long service life: Advanced diaphragm technology offering proven components durability.
- Consistent process performance: Delivers stable control across highly variable operating conditions.
Steriflow valves are developed to meet the demanding requirements of process industries where product purity, repeatability, and regulatory compliance are essential.
Steriflow Core Product Range Portfolio
Our comprehensive portfolio of Steriflow hygienic flow control solutions includes configuration styles tailored to specific system environments:
Sanitary Pressure Reducing Regulators: Provide consistent downstream pressure control in clean steam, gas, and liquid systems used in pharmaceutical and food processes.
Sanitary Back Pressure Regulators: Maintain stable upstream pressure to protect equipment and stabilise hygienic utility systems.
Sanitary Control Valves: Designed for precise modulation of flow and system pressure, with manual or automated (pneumatic/electric) actuation options.
Sanitary Safety Relief Valves: Protect clean lines from overpressure conditions, fully compliant with strict industry standards such as ASME Section VIII.
Diaphragm Valves: Aseptic valve designs built with minimal dead space, ideal for sterile processing and critical fluid isolation.
Steam Traps & SIP Accessories: Optimise sterilisation-in-place (SIP) systems and improve total plant process efficiency.
Check Valves & Ball Valves: Complete hygienic valve solutions supporting full, clean-utility system integration.
