Company: Leslie Controls, a Circor Intl. brand

Product: K-Max Eccentric Plug Rotary Control Valve

Description: This valve incorporates the cam-action, low-friction plug operation that provides tight shutoff over a long service life in a variety of flow control applications, including high- and low-pressure steam systems; clean, dirty, and corrosive liquids and gasses; and erosive and abrasive slurries. Featuring bidirectional flow capability, the unit is versatile and can handle mediums that are normally flowed to open and flowed to close. The straight-through flow design allows for a lower volume cost. Its eccentric rotary plug action allows the plug to break free of the seat ring upon initial rotation of the shaft, resulting in a longer seat ring service life and improved shutoff integrity. The valve features a range ability of 100:1, allowing precise throttling over a wide range of flows, and also has a self-aligning orbital seat, which allows orbital movement of the seat ring to provide self-alignment with the plug at assembly.
