3. DESIGN FEATURES (DOUBLE OFFSET)

Feature Description Benefit
Double Offset Geometry Two independent offsets: (1) stem axis offset from disc centerline; (2) disc centerline offset from pipe centerline Cam-like sealing action minimizes rubbing, reduces torque and wear
Rubber Seat Resilient elastomer seat (EPDM/NBR/Viton) provides bubble-tight shut-off Zero leakage even at low pressure
Nickel Plated Disc Electroless nickel plating gives excellent corrosion and erosion resistance Prolongs service life in water/wastewater
Cartridge or Bonded Seat Seat can be vulcanized to body or replaceable without removing actuator Easy maintenance
Long Service Life Double offset design eliminates “jamming” of disc against seat Lower operating torque and longer seat life
Bi-directional Shut-off Seals equally well in both flow directions Flexible installation
Top Entry / Anti-blowout Stem Stem retained with anti-blowout ring Safety in case of internal pressure
Low Flow Resistance Disc opens to 90° with minimal obstruction Low pressure drop
