- Bellows Needle Valve (for rigid control of leaks)
MODEL 2450 SERIES - The low-leak bellows needle valve products
The KOFLOC Low-Leak Bellows Needle Valve MODEL 2450 SERIES is a needle valve with bellows seal with very low leakage, designed to meet high-performance demand under extreme conditions, with focus on tightest leak control, precision and reliability under harsh conditions.

KOFLOC MODEL 2450 SERIES Low-Leak Bellows Needle Valve
Quick Review
Extensive Leak Testing
The KOFLOC Low-Leak Bellows Needle Valve MODEL 2450 SERIES is put to the most extensive battery of leak tests to minimize possible leaks (2x10-8 Pam3/sec He) even under harsh conditions.
Reliability
The performance of KOFLOC Low-Leak Bellows Needle Valve MODEL 2450 SERIES is very stable and the flow rate variance of gases due to ambient temperature change is very small.
KOFLOC Dependability
KOFLOC has 60 years of experience in manufacturing precision flow instruments. KOFLOC products, both standard and off-catalog custom items are well received throughout Japan as the name that manifests confidence. KOFLOC, the fluid expert, is the name professionals trust in precision control of minute flow.
Non-Rotating Needle
Constructed using high precision parts, the design of the KOFLOC Low-Leak Bellows Needle Valve MODEL 2450 SERIES transforms the rotation of the regulating screw to into linear motion of the needle without subjecting it to gaps and vibrations produced by the screw, to ensure stable and even control of minute flow.
Versatility
The KOFLOC Low-Leak Bellows Needle Valve MODEL 2450 SERIES can be used with for both corrosive and toxic mediums at high and very low temperatures, or even with vacuum system, making it ideal for applications using expensive mediums.
