The superior design of the piston is unique to the market, enabling the plug to retract farther from the flow path, ensuring the highest flow capacity. The dual packing design, and a large diameter self aligning stem insures the highest cycle life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>VA Compact Automated Valves<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-7287 alignleft\" src=\"\/news-and-training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/VA-2023-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"132\" height=\"132\" \/>The VA Series combines a pneumatic actuator and fast on-off control valve into one body, eliminating packing glands, actuators and mounting kits. There are no exposed moving parts, eliminating pinch points and increasing operator safety. Since the actuator is part of the valve, costs are greatly reduced when compared to standard actuated valves. <strong>Operating life has been tested to well over 1,000,000 cycles<\/strong>, due to the balanced design which reduces friction and wear.<\/p>\n<p><strong>VAX Coaxial Valves<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-3055 alignleft\" src=\"\/news-and-training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/VAX-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"VAX Series\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\n<p>VAX Series coaxial valves have been proven in the control of vacuum and gaseous, liquid, gelatinous and highly viscous media.
