FCRV Ceramic C Rotary Valve

The FCRV ceramic C rotary valve uses a concentric C-shaped rotor with upper and lower support shafts. It is intended for on-off and control duties in viscous, caking, scaling, crystallizing and large-particle media, with a geometry that keeps the stem outside the primary erosion path at small openings.

    Product overview

    • FCRV CERAMIC C ROTARY VALVE (3)

    • The ball crown stays in contact with the seat and shears adhered material from the sealing pair. Ceramic self-lubrication limits sticking. Upper and lower support shafts locate the C-rotor and carry process thrust; the stem transmits opening and closing torque.

    Design and construction

    • Special C-type structure design with ball core mechanically connected and embedded by C-type lugs and ceramic ball crown, protecting lugs from erosion.

      The concentric design keeps the ceramic ball crown in contact with the seat so it can scrape adhered material from the sealing surface.

      C-type lugs directly bear rotational torque, suited to harsh conditions with crystallization, scaling, caking, high solid content, and clogging.
      Cavity-free design prevents material accumulation inside the valve.

      Fixed ball design prevents ball core movement under pressure, resulting in low operating torque, achieving ANSI Class VI sealing.

      All process-wetted flow passages are ceramic-lined.

      Anti-blowout stem design ensures valve safety and reliability.
