SANITARY Flush-Type Fluid-Flow Ball Valves
 Fluid Transfer's flush-type Fluid-Flow ball valves assure an unobstructed full port product flow. Unlike other ball valves, Fluid-Flow ball valves are the choice where the product is viscous or contains particles. The ball revolves within a totally encapsulating Mica-filled Teflon seal, thus meeting the most stringent sanitary standards. Fluid-Flow ball valves are 3A/USDA approved.
The corrosion-resistant, sanitary design of Fluid-Flow flush bottom ball valves makes them ideal for use in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, beverage and chemical industries. Due to the solid construction of Type 316 stainless steel wetted valve parts and Type 316L stainless steel mounting flange, the user of a Fluid-Flow flush bottom ball valve will experience very few, if any, breakdowns thus eliminating shutdown costs due to valve failure. Easily disassembled in less than thirty seconds, no special tools required, Fluid Transfer's Fluid-Flow ball valves work well in C.I.P. systems.
Flush-type Fluid-Flow ball valves range in size from 1½" through 4" and are available in two finishes: polished #4 ID only (3A standard) and optional polished #4 ID/OD. Electropolish is also available. Maximum working temperature is 450° F with a working pressure to 300 PSIG. Fluid Transfer's flush-type Fluid-Flow ball valves are available with standard outlet types. * Tri-Clamp connectors and Sanitary Acme Threads. Other connections are available upon request. |

SANITARY Multi-Port, In-Line Fluid-Flow Ball Valves |
|
|
|
Fluid Transfer's exclusive multi-port, in-line Fluid-Flow ball valves are precision made of Type 316 stainless steel. They are designed for rigid corrosion-resistant, sanitary applications in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, beverage, and chemical industries. The solid construction of Fluid-Flow valves provides maximum reliability and failure-free performance under the most extreme conditions. Cleanup and maintenance costs are substantially reduced due to a unique, simple design that allows extremely fast breakdown . . . by hand . . . no special tools required. Fluid-Flow valves can also be used in C.I.P. systems.Standard full design seals provide the maximum reduction in product entrapment while full flow ports |

(also standard) eliminate product flow restrictions.Fully encapsulating Mica-filled Teflon seals are standard on the two-way in-line valve. Solid Teflon seals are available as an option. The three-way in-line valve, as a standard, is supplied with solid Teflon seals. Some applications may require Mica-filled Teflon seals. These are offered as an option. Another standard feature on both the two and three-way in-line valves is a polished #4 ID (3A standard). A polished #4 ID/OD is offered as an option. Electropolish is also available. While other ball valves only meet minimum requirements, Fluid Transfer's Fluid-Flow valves are 3A/USDA approved.
Sizes range from 1 ½" to 4". The two-way valve has a working pressure to 300 PSIG and a maximum working temperature of 450° F. Three-way valves have a working pressure to 150 PSIG and a maximum working temperature of 300° F (for increased pressures to 300 PSIG and temperatures to 450° F, request Mica-filled seals). In-line Fluid-Flow ball valves are available as standard with *Tri-Clamp. ** In-line, or Sanitary Acme thread and other connections are available upon request. |
