Thermoplastic Manual Globe Control Valves

The flow through a globe valve follows a course that changes direction nearly 90º twice. But, because the seating of a globe valve is parallel to the line of flow of the liquid, the valve can be used to throttle the flow to any required degree or to give positive shut-offs. The economy and dependability of the Asahi/America globe valve make it desirable for many applications where this pressure drop is not critical. These valves are designed for...

Model Type P - Thermoplastic Gate Valves

The gate valve is the most widely used on/off valve for large diameter, full port applications. When the valve is fully open, it allows straight passage through an opening that is essentially the same size as the inside diameter of the connecting pipe, so there is little pressure drop through a gate valve. The valve operates when the hand wheel and stem screw (or electric actuator) move a cylindrical plug, the gate, up and down at right angles to the...

Model V82 - Pressure Regulator

The pressure reducing valve V82 reduces pressure to a given value. It adjusts itself to the set working pressure and maintains it on the downstream side, regardless of fluctuations of inlet pressure or changes in flow demand. There is no direct relation between the working pressure and the inlet pressure. The valve works by balancing an adjustable spring force that pushes downward onto a diaphragm, against the force of the fluid pushing upward.

Model V782 - Pressure Regulator

The pressure reducing valve V782 reduces pressure to a given value. It adjusts itself to the set working pressure and maintains it on the downstream side, regardless of fluctuations of inlet pressure or changes in flow demand.
