ADVANTAGES OVER BUTTERFLY VALVES
- No disc in waterway to restrict flow or to increase pumping costs.
- Allows passage of pigging devices.
- Internal parts can be serviced without cutting valve out of pipeline.
- 250 p.s.i.g. rating provides for future pressure increases over the 150 p.s.i.g. pressure rating found on most butterfly valves.
ADVANTAGES OVER DOUBLE DISC GATE VALVES
- 100% bottle-tight seal. No more time-consuming testing to determine allowable leakage rate.
- No pocket in bottom of valve to collect sediment or trap debris.
- Lower torque requirements to operate valve.
- 250 p.s.i.g. pressure rating compared to the 150 p.s.i.g. rating found on double disc gate valves.
- Epoxy coated inside and out.
- Lighter total valve weight.
