Features and Benefits
A Digital Label
Each valve can be easily and uniquely identified by scanning the QR code on the product identification label per IEC 61406.
B Static Discharge Through Anti-Static Design
Static discharge is achieved through anti-static design (grounding washer and top flange drilling).
C Stem Design
The high-strength stem design combines blowout-proof functionality for safe operation and exceptional service life.
D Stem Bushing
Non-corrosive heavy-duty acetal bushing absorbs actuator side thrust.
E Robust Flange Sealing
Teardrop-shaped seat surface provides tight sealing with various industrial flanges.
F Molded-in Seat
Tightly controlled molding process produces accurate and repeatable dimensions, which leads to consistently lower torques over the valve’s lifetime.
G Precision Profiled Disc Sealing Edge
Extends the valve life by reducing seat wear.
H Upper and Lower Stem Bearings
Reduce operating torque and increase reliability in high cycle applications.
I End of Line Capability
Lug-style valves can seal at full rated pressure even when the downstream flange is removed.
