Assured Automation Announces New Polypro and PVC
Series Butterfly Valves
Assured Automation
announces two new butterfly valve series
The first is the FK
Polypropylene Butterfly Valve Series, which offers superior strength
and chemical resistance in highly corrosive environments. The special
trapezoid shape of the liner and a serrated body cavity guarantee a bubble
tight seal while keeping break-away torque at an absolute minimum. This
versatile industrial valve features double self lubricating seals and
direct mount actuator capability. These valves are available in line sizes
of 1 1/2" through 12" with Wafer or Lugged flanged end connections.
The second is the FE
PVC Butterfly Valve Series, which incorporates many of the features of
the industrial FK Valve. The FE Series offers all PVC construction with
EPDM seat, which makes this valve a perfect choice for water and light
industrial applications.
Assured Automation's FK/FE Butterfly Valves have been
used successfully in many industrial applications, including industrial
process piping systems, acid waste systems, high purity systems as well as
plumbing and mechanical pipe systems.
FK/FE Series Butterfly
Valve Featured Application
A major soft drink processing plant was seeking to
improve the service life and sealing capabilities of the butterfly valves
in their water treatment plant. They were using a major manufacturer of
resilient seat butterfly valves with ductile iron bodies. The constant
exposure to acid and caustic fumes quickly eroded the ductile iron valves,
creating a safety issue. These ductile iron valves were replaced every few
years. The plant decided to replace the resilient seat butterfly valves
with the FK Series butterfly. The valves' polypropylene body looks brand
new after three years of service and the superior body sealing has
provided the service life they needed. The maintenance costs were reduced
significantly and plant safety has been improved.
