[labnetwork] High Purity Valve Cleaning Service

[Tom Britton]

Hello Conrad,

We've looked into doing this over the years, but with the cost of the repair kit at around $40, the labor to do it, and the cost of the testing to make sure it's seal to atmosphere is correct and it's properly shutting off, you're better off buying a new one. They're just not that expensive. A new APTech 316SS EP valve with 1/4" VCR fittings runs about $120, and the Var body version (for corrosives) runs about $185.  FYI

Best to you sir!

I am looking for a vendor to disassemble, clean, and reassemble Swagelock high purity valves such as the SS-DLS4.  Does anyone know of a vendor?
