Dixon Exhibiting at PPMA 2016 Show

Dixon offers FDA and 3A approved stainless steel fittings, unions, tube, pumps and valves for the food, dairy, beverage and brewery industries.

Dixon will be showcasing their range of hygienic fittings and actuated valves on a stainless steel fabricated display and new table stand engineered and built from their product range; along with a carousel of hygienic hoses assemblies offering odourless and taste free properties suitable for liquid foodstuffs.

Dixon’s hygienic hose range includes a range of rubber, silicone, PVC and PTFE hose assemblies which can be custom made to exact requirements with accessories including wash down guns and steam lances.

Also on show will be the newly launched Hygienic Breakaway Check Valve, which is proving to be ‘the right connection’, potentially saving companies thousands.

Launched last year the new Dixon Breakaway Check Valve is an innovative solution that is designed to eliminate product loss too. It incorporates the Breakaway Coupling and a Hygienic Check Valve. It acts as a single unit that has a diverted breaking point which will break at a determined break-load. Then the check valve will close protecting the loading bay pipe system AND avoiding product spillage.

The breakaway check valve is only one of the bespoke valves recently produced by Dixon. With an on-site valve actuation shop, 3D design, full technical and sales back-up and BSI approved manufacturing and engineering department, Dixon can design and produce individual bespoke valves and fabricated configurations to quickly and efficiently solve customer problems.

Dixon’s Hygienic Product Manager will also be available on the stand each day to talk about correct valve selection, the effects of valve selection to your bottom line, eliminating contamination risk and new innovations in valve technology.

By choosing the correct design and specification of valve for a process can save costs, reduce downtimes and minimise product loss or contamination. Dixon can advise on factors including the most effective seat material to the correct mounting considerations of an actuator, which can affect the wear and tear on a valve and in turn create problems with contamination and reduce a valve’s life cycle

Come and see us on 27-29 September to make the right decision before your next valve purchase.
