S8-Series / Low Profile Valve
Plattco’s S8-Series flap valve where headroom is restricted. Features the same rugged design as our famous H-Series valve at roughly half the height.
Excellence in Design:
- No rotary action means no need to build clearance (leakage) into the valve.
- Double flaps ensure that the seal is never broken throughout filling and emptying the valve.
- All-cast construction for consistency, proprietary alloys for durability and wear resistence, seat and flapper precision-machined to eliminate air leakage.
- Proprietary design eliminates bridging, jamming and material build-up.
- In pressurized applications, Plattco’s patented mechanical seal eliminates the potential for shaft-seal leakage.
- Seats and flappers can be reground several times to bring them back to “like new” condition and performance.
- Housing is not part of the seal -- allowing it to last for decades in the worst operational environments.
