Valves are an essential piece in most production facilities. Without them in good condition and working properly, production lines grind to a stop. This often causes you to begin rushing to find a solution or a timely replacement.
For that reason, it’s integral you find a good company of trustworthy steel valve manufacturers. That’s where we come in. At Everlasting Valve Company, we are dedicated to designing and producing top-of-the-line valves. You can trust our valves to work and with much fewer complications than other valves.
There’s a wide variety of productions where valves are needed. Things like cement production power generation are some of the more common production types. For every production task, there are different types of steel valves that work better than others. It’s important to know the best types of steel valves for your specific applications.
We at Everlasting Valve Company, a DNV-GL certified company, offer four different types of steel valves. Read on to find out more about each of them.
1. Process Valves
These process valves are expertly designed to handle slurry, chemicals, heat, scale, and dry solids with ease. This makes them far surpass the more traditional ball valves.
Our process valves have proven their worth for decades, handling the toughest, hottest, grittiest work with ease. These valves are perfect for many different tasks. These include reactor loading, pneumatic conveying systems, lockhoppers, vessel discharge, and slurry systems.
They function smoothly, even when in extraordinarily harsh environments. They’re built on an original self-lapping rotating-disc-valve platform. They also have an open body design that is self-cleaning. The rotating disc slides across the body to clear out process material during operation. This reduces downtime and increases the longevity of the valves.
Their seal wears in instead of wearing out, which tightens the seal, making it even more effective the longer and more it’s in use. Post packing is live-loaded to allow self-adjustment. This reduces fugitive emissions, needed maintenance, and helps prevent erosion.
2. Diverter Valves
Our diverter valves are built to handle the roughest and most abrasive material you have. Our valves have a self-lapping and self-cleaning design. This increases the longevity and efficiency much more than that of traditional diverter valves.
Designed for maximum efficiency, they’re so easily switched the usual downtime to do so is mostly eliminated.
They’re ideal for transporting or pumping into multiple vessels and storage silos. This eliminates downstream line plugging, full fringe bins, and off-quality silos. Our diverter valves save significant parts, labor, and production times.
With their open body design, media can run freely and discharge cleanly. The closed seat and disc surfaces seal off for protection from abrasive materials. When the self-lapping disc rotates, it even polishes scratches away. These seals also wear in and get tighter and more efficient with use.
3. Bulk Material Valves
Our patented bulk material valves effortlessly handle extreme conditions. This includes abrasive, high-temperature, and high cycling applications. These valves are the toughest, and overall best performing bulk material valve on the market today.
The open-body design allows particulate to pass freely to easily expel and clean the valve as it opens. Its one-of-a-kind shearing action clears the sealing surfaces and the particulates’ path. This helps form an ever-tighter seal with an exceptionally low risk of leaking.
Thanks to that, you can have the assurance of tight and effectual shut-off.
Performance of the valve improves with each rotation. This makes high-cycling applications act like an intensive workout routine for the valves. This design includes a pneumatic actuator and separated valve. This allows for easy field packing without having to remove the valve. Its factory-machined lapping assures tight shut-off.
Our bulk material valves are by far one of the easiest valves to install, use, and maintain. They last longer than any ball or gate valve that’s on the market.
These valves have a wide range of flexibility in regard to uses. They’re useful for dry solids, dense and dilute pneumatic conveying systems transporter fill valve, discharge, and vent. They’re also good for filling applications in transfer lines, under baghouses, and in silos, cyclones, ESPs, and dust collectors.
Our valves will produce a boost of efficiency will make your and your workers’ lives easier. They do this by lowering needed maintenance and maintenance costs.
4. Boiler Blowdown Valves
Our boiler blowdown valves were first manufactured in 1906 as an original product of the Everlasting Valve Company. These valves effectively clear sludge and other impurities in steam-boiler operations. They’re fit for the harshest of industrial applications.
Traditional globe valves wear out because they let dirt and scale into the valve seat, prevents proper sealing. Our boiler blowdown valves wear in to create an ever-tightening seal, even with the thickest slurry.
The rotating disc slides across the body to get rid of harmful boiler scale and other particles. It does this while also cleaning the precision-lapped surface. The post packing is self-adjusted, which lowers maintenance and prevents leakage.
These valves are available in the quick opening, slow opening, straight, and angle configurations. They work for steam-boiler blowdown as well as surface blowdown, water-column drain, and shut-off and stop valves. Our boiler blowdown valves are an ideal choice if you’re constantly worrying about repairing and replacing the valves you use now.
Quality Steel Valve Manufacturers
