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.

Asahi/America Omni® Ball Valves are quick opening and closing; a quarter turn is all that is necessary. They provide tight sealing at low torque. The Omni® series is an economical, one-piece design which cannot be taken apart. Asahi/America Omni® Ball Valves have Teflon® seats which provide permanent lubrication and allow the valve to be operated with minimal effort. The Teflon® seats are backed by EPDM backing cushions. Also available in an electrically actuated version. 150 psi rating @ 120°F.
The True Union feature, an exclusive Chemtrol® introduction over twenty years ago, has become an industry standard. Coupled with its other features, the Chemtrol® Tru-Bloc™. True Union Ball Valve adds up to great versatility and significant savings in operating and maintenance costs. Chemtrol® Tru-Bloc™ True Union Ball Valve’s heavy-duty stub-acme thread-seal carrier retaining ring provides more reliability than other designs. Double-block design stops flow in either direction - upstream and downstream - when the alternate union is removed for servicing of the system.
