Disc Valve applications – as Drain Valves or Feeding Valves

Disc Valves are most commonly used for dead space free draining and feeding of vessels, reactors and pipelines. They are especially suited to low-viscosity materials, or where slower vessel drainage is unproblematic.

The shorter stroke results in smaller, lighter and faster actuators, saving cost and weight. The disc rising valve is normally a flow to close design, aiding sealing performance.

The disc lowering valve Model 24 can be used on vessels with agitators as it is non-intrusive. They are also widely used for driers, mixers, and filters.
