Valves & Actuation

Asahi/America Type 14 Diaphragm Valves offer many combinations of body materials and elastomeric diaphragm materials. This valve is designed to resist abrasion and clogging. The path of the fluid has a smooth, streamlined flow. Slurries at low pressure that would normally clog most other valve designs easily pass thru this type of valve. Asahi/America Type 14 Diaphragm Valves are ideally suited for throttling as well as ON/OFF service in applications ranging from water treatment to chemical abrasion processes.
Features
• Position indicator standard   • 150 psi maximum @ 70°F   • Adjustable travel stop   • Pipe connections - socket, threaded or flanged   • Weir design allows for throttling   • Automation with no body modifications
Options
• Diaphragms available in FKM and Nitrile   • PVDF gas barrier on PTFE models   • Pneumatic actuators   • Stem extensions   • Limit switches   • Square operating nuts

Asahi/America Type 57 Butterfly Valves disc has about the same diameter as the connecting piping, and the flow is straight through, with a low pressure drop. The solid thermoplastic butterfly valves have a lined body design and bubble-tight seal with only the liner and the disc as wetted parts. Asahi/America Type 57 Butterfly Valves are self-gasketing, eliminating the need for additional flange gaskets. Asahi/America Type 57 standard model has a PVC or PP body with a polypro, CPVC or PVDF disc for better chemical and abrasion resistance at temperatures higher than can be achieved with other PVC butterfly valves. All models standard with 316SS shaft.

The Type 567 is a wafer style butterfly valve rated for pressures up to 150 psi and temperatures of up to 140° F for PVC and 176° F for CPVC, also available in polypropylene and PVDF. Better chemical compatibility is achieved because the inner body is the same material as the piping. The Type 567/578 Butterfly valves have a unique eccentric design that means the disc is not in contact with the seal in the open position. The result is less wear and operating torques half that of previous models. Georg Fischer double eccentric butterfly valves require approximately 50% less operating torque than boot-style competitive valves. Lever and gear operators are both available. In the lever version, the opening angle is clearly indicated on the index plate.
