Modular sweep angle control valves

November 2013 Valves, Actuators & Pump Control

Sweep angle control valves from PSV Mitech are ideally configured for service with highly erosive liquids where pressures or temperatures are too high for pinch valves or similiar slurry valves. They are also ideal for applications where severe flashing is expected.

Modular in design, the valves are available in sizes from 2,5 to 40 cm. Larger sizes are available on request. The sweep angle control valve has flange ratings of up to #2500. The plug and seat can be manufactured in hard material up to and including tungsten carbide or other ceramics and the body can be bronzed or coated with high velocity spray coated tungsten carbide in critical areas.

The valve has a flow-to-close configuration with few components in the flow path, eliminating any sharp changes in direction. The seat ring is clamped between the valve body and the downstream pipe work, so there is no need for a traditional retainer or cage.

Typical applications for the valve are in mining, petrochemicals, food, pulp and paper, and power generation industries.
