VITAL plug valve is a cone or cylinder-shaped valve that uses a rotator inside the valve body to control flow of fluids. Plug valves have at least one hollow passageway to allow flow through the open valve, most often horizontally. This type of valve is especially useful for high pressure scenarios.
DESIGN FEATURES:
>Inverted Plug
>Good sealing performance and lower valve torque
>By injecting lubricant into body cavity
>Deformed plug can be adjusted through the screw
>At the bottom
>Plug coated with PTFE/ENP
>Anti-static and fire safe design
>Available options: Jacket Sleeved Plug Valve, Lift Plug Valve, Eccentric Plug Valve, DBB Plug Valve, 3 Way Plug Valve, PFA Lined Plug Valve
1. In the valve's opening/closing process, there is no contact between the sealing surfaces of the valve body and the vane, so the sealing surfaces suffer neither friction nor wear, contributing to the valve's long service life and small opening/ closing torque;
2. For the valve's maintenance, there is no need to remove the valve from the pipeline but just remove its bottom cover to replace the vane pair, thus very easy for the maintenance;
3. The valve's body and plug are reduced-bore or full-bore so that the medium can flow through the valve without any flow resistance, and it's also possible to clean the pipeline with pigging to overcome the shortcomings of the reduced bore valve;
4. The cavity of the full-bore/reduced-bore general valve is plated with hard chrome and the sealing area is hard and smooth;
5. The elastic seal on the vane is made of the fluorine rubber and molded and formed in a groove of the vane surface. The fireproof metal-to-metal seal is used as the backing of the elastic seal;
6. The valve is provided with an automatic bleed device [optional] which can prevent the abnormal pressure rise of the valve cavity and check the valve's effect after the valve is completely closed;
7. The valve's opening/closing indicator is in sync with the opening/closing position and can accurately display the gear drive full-bore general valve's opening/dosing status.
