Features

  • True bi-directional flow and zero leakage shut-off - ensures that the valve effectively controls the flow of fluid in both directions, without any leakage
  • Heavy cross-section precision-molded elastomer seat - provides more surface area for superior isolation
  • Full round port and seat design - offers lower pressure drop across the valve and a longer service life in abrasive applications, enhancing the overall performance and durability of the valve.
  • Enclosed body design prevents any leakage to the outside environment
  • Field-adjustable, patented gate edge seal system prevents leakage through top of valve
  • Standard inlet and outlet replaceable, rotatable Ni-Resist wear rings extend service life
  • Modular frame design allows for installation of any standard accessory without modification
