FERV Ceramic Eccentric Rotary Valve
Overview and construction
Full Ceramic Lining & Self-Cleaning: All internal surfaces are fully lined with ceramic, with no dead spaces or corners, providing self-cleaning and making the valve suited to crystallizing, scaling, sticky, or contaminated media.
Simple Flow Path & Low Resistance: Ensures high flow capacity and efficient operation, minimizing erosion. At 90° full open, the valve core and pivot are positioned outside the flow path, while the stem and pivot are protected by ceramic sleeves.
Wide Adjustable Range & High Kv Value: Offers precise control over flow rates, with an adjustable ratio of up to 200.
Torque-Sealed, Forced Sealing Design: High shut-off performance with reduced friction between the rotor and valve seat, minimizing wear on sealing surfaces.
Spherical Compression Seat: breaks up crystallized or sticky materials, enhancing performance in challenging media.
Lightweight & Energy Efficient: Lighter than same-size ball valves, allowing actuators to operate with lower output torque, weight, and cost.
Bidirectional Installation: Supports installation in either direction without affecting performance.
