Key Features and Benefits of Duplex Valves
Premium Materials
Depending on the type of valves you need, they will be constructed from either stainless steel or cast iron. Both offer exceptional strength and durability, ensuring the valve will give years of maintenance-free performance, even in challenging conditions. No matter what class, size, material, or pressure rating of the valve you choose, when you invest in Everlasting Valve products you are getting high-quality, american made valves. They are designed to withstand anything they may encounter, even in the harshest service environments.
Rotating Disc Valves
Particularly if your operation involves particulate material, valves have historically been prone to clogging and build-up. Rotating disc valves with a self-lapping feature virtually eliminate this risk, greatly enhancing the longevity of the valve and reducing the need for maintenance that could disrupt your operation. The seal tightens more through use and a continuous cleaning feature ensures that your valve will not get hung up on boiler scale or other debris.
Straight-through Flow
Installation is easy when you use duplex valves, which can be installed without regard to the position of the handwheel. This ensures a straight-through flow with no need for further adjustment due to temperature changes. The lever-operated section of the valve acts as the sealing valve, with the handwheel operated part as the blowing valve. With line pressure and a heavy spring, the valve’s disc is held firmly against the body seat. Any post packing is self-adjusted thanks to the same spring and line pressure, so you do not need to worry about hand adjustment, erosion, or stuffing box leaking. If you need to remove the blowdown valve for repair, the sealing valve remains in place and in service.
A Leakproof Seal That Tightens Over Time
Our valves are some of the few on the market that start off providing a leakproof solution and continue to do so as time passes. The seal is not impacted by any temperature change. In fact, the seal in the valve tightens slightly over time, mitigating against any possibility of a leak.
Continuous Cleaning Feature
It doesn’t get much better than a valve that cleans itself as necessary, but that’s exactly what our duplex valves have been designed to do. The self-cleaning feature is operational whenever the valve is in use, removing detritus such as boiler scale almost before it has the opportunity to develop. This removes the need for maintenance, allowing the valve to work 24/7/365.
Investing in High-Quality Industrial Valves
Duplex valves are not something you want to be continually replacing or repairing. Every time you have to stop everything to deal with a faulty valve, you are losing time, money, and productivity. It all grinds to a halt as valves are replaced or repaired. The truth is that a slowdown or shutdown like this is unnecessary.
