Ceramic Diverter Valve - Product Details
Product Overview
Our Ceramic Diverter Valve is a high-performance, heavy-duty solution designed for the most demanding dry-bulk powder and abrasive slurry applications. Engineered with wear-resistant ceramics at all critical points, it excels in redirecting the flow of highly abrasive materials with exceptional reliability and an extended service life, significantly reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Superior Wear Resistance: The core innovation lies in the utilization of high-purity alumina ceramics (≥95% Al₂O₃) for the valve body lining, disc, and seat. With a Rockwell hardness (HRA) of ≥85, it offers unparalleled protection against abrasive wear, outlasting standard carbon steel valves by a factor of 5 to 10 times.
-
Enhanced Operational Reliability: The robust design and self-lubricating materials ensure smooth operation under high-pressure differentials. The precision-machined components guarantee a perfect seal and reliable shifting, preventing material leakage and process interruptions.
-
Low Maintenance & Long Service Life: The exceptional durability of the ceramic components means dramatically reduced wear rates. This translates to fewer replacements, less unplanned downtime, and a significantly lower total cost of ownership.
-
Versatile Configurations: Available in 2-Way, 3-Way, or even 4-Way designs to suit various pipeline layouts and process requirements. It can be configured for manual, pneumatic, or electric actuation to seamlessly integrate into your automated control systems.
-
Smooth, Clog-Free Flow: The interior surfaces are polished to a fine finish, and the innovative design minimizes pockets and dead areas. This prevents material buildup and blockages, ensuring a consistent and uninterrupted flow.
