Ceramic ValvesWhy Choose a Ceramic Valve?Due to the advanced properties of the technical ceramics used, ceramic Ceramic Valves offer significant advantages over standard material valves. ceramic valves are manufactured using solid 99.5% high-purity alumina ceramic, guaranteeing a valve that is superior in all respects, including resistance to: • Corrosion. 99.5% alumina ceramic is virtually inert to almost all organic and inorganic chemicals. They do not interact with, nor contaminate the process media. They are physically and chemically stable against most acids and alkalis and offer years of service with little or no corrosive degradation. • Abrasion. 99.5% alumina ceramic is 43% harder than zirconia, 140% harder than porcelain and 730% harder than stainless steel, an indication of the long-term wear-resistance properties of our valve materials. • Cavitation. Even severe, continuous cavitation will not degrade or damage our ceramic valve components. Therefore, ceramic ceramic valves may be used in cavitating or high differential-pressure applications with little or no harmful effects. Wide Selection of Trims. Each valve size offers a variety of control and round-ported valve trims. This assures highly accurate, tailored flow control as well as minimizing seat and pipe abrasion due to oversized trims.
Cost Advantages Your initial investment cost in ceramic valves is small indeed when you take into account the significant long-term benefits they provide. All wetted parts are made of solid ceramic; they are not just ceramically coated or lined. So ceramic valves provide... • Long
Service Life in
severe applications as a result of their superior resistance to corrosion,
abrasion and erosion.
