Fractionator Isolation Valves

The Double Disc Trough Conduit type Gate Valve has a higher tightness and subsequently a higher safety level than other designs. It provides a true double isolation and purge capability within one valve body. The valves are available in several designs: cold and hot wall design, flanges or welding ends.

Benefits

Provides fully automatic isolation of the
Fractionator Column
Decreases downtime – isolation within a few minutes
Increases safety of operation – no exposure of personnel to heat and process medium

Key features

Double block and purge shut-off by means of double disc technology
Electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic options
available for valve actuation
Valve design according to customer demands and licensors/customers specifications
