MVP Valves
Versatile snap-in valve design
Hamilton Modular Valve Positioners are exceptionally easy to service and modify. It is very simple to remove and replace their snap-in valves with other configurations to achieve different fluid delivery with the same positioner unit, maximizing flexibility and value. You can choose from valves with two to eight ports that offer a total of 15 different flow paths. Valves are available with chemically inert PTFE and CTFE, or ceramic flow paths and can be customized per your requirements.

Valve Fluid Paths
Hamilton offers a variety of different fluid path to meet the unique needs of almost any application. If a standard fluid path will not work contact us today to discuss custom options. -
Manual Valve Dead Volume
The valve swept volume is the amount of liquid that is required to fill the entire fluid path of that valve.
Work with R&D engineers to customize Hamilton parts
Hamilton's "Custom Built" program puts you directly in contact with a Hamilton R&D Engineer to discuss your application and product needs. The engineer will point you to a standard solution or propose a customized solution to meet your needs.
