The Plunger Valve is designed to reduce cavitation and stagnant water creation to help water system improve operational safety, efficiency and flow control.
The plunger valve features a field-replaceable control insert that enables water systems to effectively reduce the flow pressure while reducing the cavitation intensity. It contains a valve actuator mechanism that provides non-linear closure with precise surge resistance and effective control ranges as high as 97%. The plunger's o-ring seal, which is located outside of the cavitation zone, and four hard-faced cylinder support guides work together to help the minimize wear and provide the valve with a longer operational lifetime. The valve's input shaft features a dual inboard seal that helps protect the shaft and the shaft bore from corrosion while helping to avoid stagnant water creation. These features optimize the durability of the Plunger Valve while helping ensure a consistent level of cleanliness and sterility, a capability that is especially important for drinking water systems.
