Tanks from approximately 10L to 10,000L are acceptable! The opening and closing is done solely by the diaphragm, allowing for smooth discharge of the tank contents with almost no residue left.

【Features】 ● The structure is directly welded to the bottom of the tank, providing excellent stirring efficiency. ● There are no contact parts such as gland packing, stem, seat, or gasket; the opening and closing are done solely by the diaphragm, allowing for smooth discharge of the tank contents with minimal residue. Contamination caused by valve components is extremely low, and cleaning and sterilization can be easily and reliably performed. ● The applicable nominal diameters range from DN15 to 100 (4S), making it suitable for use with small containers of about 10 liters to medium tanks of about 10,000 liters. 【Specifications (Excerpt)】 ● Main body material: SUS316L ● Applicable nominal diameter (DN): 15 to 100 ● Operation method: Manual operation and air-operated methods are both applicable. * For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Easy with 90-degree operation! Prevents over-tightening and damage! "I'm worried if it's securely tightened..." We solve this kind of concern.

The "BQL400NB model" is a rapid opening and closing type handle diaphragm valve from BioClean. While the standard handle version requires about 5 turns of operation (for DN50), the rapid opening and closing handle allows for a very simple operation of just "opening and closing by 90 degrees." The valve's open and closed status can be clearly seen from a distance based on the handle position. Additionally, it has achieved a lighter and more compact design compared to conventional products. Please try the easy operation and stable closing performance of the 90-degree rotating lever handle. 【We solve the following problems!】 ■ Excessive opening and closing torque → Reduction is possible, greatly contributing to labor savings. ■ Want to check the opening and closing status from a distance → The valve's open and closed status can be clearly seen from a distance based on the handle position. ■ Damage caused by over-tightening the valve → Only the minimum necessary operation is required. This prevents damage and extends lifespan. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

The "Hotron Non-Contact Switch" allows you to open and close doors without directly touching door knobs or switches, making it hygienic! You can choose from two types: the "Hand Wave Sensor," which only requires you to wave your hand, and the "Foot Switch," which only requires you to place your foot in front of it. It reduces the risk of virus and bacteria transmission in places where hygiene is a concern, such as food factories, restaurants, hospitals, and nursing facilities. 【Features】 ○ Reduces the risk of virus transmission by allowing door operation without contact ○ A wide variety of options to choose from based on application and location ○ Ideal for places where hygiene is a priority, such as food factories and medical facilities ○ Prevents unnecessary detection due to the switch mechanism 【Product Lineup】 ■ Hand Wave Sensor Series ○ Exposed waterproof type, front, down, and side-facing type "PF-R5" ○ Exposed type, front-facing type "PF-R1" ○ Embedded type, front-facing type "PF-U2" ○ Exposed type, downward wide type "PF-R4" ■ Foot Switch Series ○ Slim type with wide opening, vertical beam type "PF-01S" ○ Slim type with wide opening, horizontal beam type "PF-03S" ○ Standard type, horizontal beam type "PF-05" ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

In recent years, with the outbreak of infectious diseases, there has been a demand for products that cater to "contactless operation," and this trend has extended to environments where automatic doors were previously operated by touch switches. As the automation of doors and the non-contact operation of automatic doors become more widespread, do you have any of the following concerns? ☑ Although automatic doors have been installed, they remain open due to people crossing frequently in busy areas. ☑ Touch switches have been introduced to reduce unnecessary openings and closings, but hygiene is a concern. ☑ Touch switches require regular battery replacements since they are powered. The light beam touch sensor "HA-T401" opens and closes automatic doors without contact, and its compact detection range makes it suitable for narrow passages and busy areas, contributing to energy savings and infection control. 【Benefits of Implementation】 ○ Adaptable to various door types with four spot settings, ideal for busy roads and narrow passages. ○ Energy-saving effects with two setting modes that reduce unnecessary openings and closings of automatic doors. ○ Equipped with a light beam touch function, allowing doors to open and close simply by waving a hand, ensuring hygiene. ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

An article has been published about the case of introducing the expense reimbursement system "Rakuraku Seisan" at TSP Corporation. ~ In the case of TSP ~ Before the introduction, there were challenges such as dealing with the "paper" sent from various locations and the reliance on specific individuals for the tasks.
