Over the past few years, Fort Vale have been building a strong reputation, as well a wide portfolio, of valves which are PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy) lined. PFA has numerous advantages over other, more brittle, treatments and will extend the service life of valves in aggressive service by many times. The composite design contains the main actuating and sealing mechanism within a common ‘cassette’. The separate outlet tube can be configured in 45°, 30°, 90° and 180° variants as standard. Bespoke configuration of the outlet is also more readily available with this valve design. The valve has been tested over a 1,000 cycles to comply with EN14433 and on full inspection no measurable wear has been observed of any of the PFA lined surfaces. The new lined Cleanflow joins the Fort Vale family of lined equipment which comprises lined Supermaxi Relief Valves, Airline valves, Ball Valves and Butterfly Valves, and will be available from August 2017.
