The Award-Winning “Half-Shell” Design
The heart of the Isonic concept is its patented “half-shell” design. Composed of two mirror-image halves, Isonic® products allows its flow channels and internal component compartments to be designed directly into these molded body sections. Valve bodies are molded of high-strength, glass-impregnated Ultem thermoplastic.
Assembly is achieved by simply inserting the various valve elements into their corresponding “half-shell” pockets. Internal components are easily positioned to make optimal use of space.
The valve is completed by ultrasonically welding the two valve seg- ments, creating a strong bond and hermetic seal. This design totally eliminates the need for fasteners, adhesives, gaskets and inserts.
