Valves for gas applications

May 2015 Valves, Actuators & Pump Control

Mitech’s locally designed and manufactured damper valves are specifically used for gas control in low pressure and high temperature gas applications. The dampers can be manufactured in flanged, wafer or lugged pattern designs in single-door, double-door or oblong vane-type configurations. Robust in design, they have carbon or stainless steel bodies and discs and the shaft seals can be either PTFE or graphite, depending on the operating temperature. The dampers are subject to a leak rate not exceeding 1% of their rated flow and they are available in sizes from 200 up to 2500 mm with flange ratings of up to #600. If required larger sizes are available on request. Dampers are ideal for use in the mining, petrochemical, food, breweries, pulp and paper and power generation industries.
