In many applications, the flow of air or other gases must be controlled.
Oxygen is becoming increasingly important, not just in the
life sciences sector, but also in food and biotech. The gas must
always be precisely dosed, whether it is used to control protective
gases in production or for breathing air in medical devices. And
meeting the high demands on reliability and performance is just as
important as cost efficiency. The new VEMD does both: it offers high
dynamic response and is very favourably priced.
