A diaphragm valve includes a diaphragm with a rigid insert. The diaphragm is arranged over a valve seat. The diaphragm is clamped concentrically around said valve seat. The combination of the rigid insert and the clamp enable a pressure applied an area of said diaphragm outside said clamped area to be communicated to the area of the diaphragm inside said clamped area, thereby closing or opening said valve seat.
