These versatile, high-performance valves are suitable for most industry process applications. From process water or pulp and paper to mining (light to medium slurries), Food & Beverage, acid and alkaline fluid transportation, effluent, wastewater and bulk handling, they the Figure 952 are ideal for almost any application where performance and reliability are critical. The robust two-post design provides a lighter and more compact footprint than older, four-post models. This makes for easier installation, servicing and replacement at the job site. The advanced, inverted, self-aligning gland box – developed by Pentair – offers superior performance compared to older, floating gland designs. The improved gate surface finish significantly reduces galling. The new Figure 952 is available with three separate seating options: Metal for abrasive applications such as mining slurry Viton for high temperature conditions PTFE for chemical resistance.
