Also known as diaphragm valves, these have a PTFE body and seals that stand up to harsh acidic solutions. The diaphragm can handle dirty liquid, slurries, and abrasive media without damage. All valves operate on compressed air to automatically start and stop flow. You must control the air to the actuator using either an electric pilot valve (not included) or a manual on/off valve (not included). These valves don’t require a minimum pressure drop between the inlet and outlet for operation.
All have a single-acting actuator that only requires air pressure to open the valve; they automatically spring closed when the air turns off. The actuator is directly mounted to the valve body to minimize movement and reduce wear. Valves are normally closed unless actuated.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.
