Dia-Flo® Straightway Diaphragm Valve
Conventional straightway diaphragm valve for slurry, abrasive and corrosive service: the streamlined, unobstructed flow path keeps solids from lodging in cavities and lets the valve be rodded through in either direction. Bodies come unlined in cast iron, ductile iron, stainless or cast steel, rubber lined in soft rubber, hard rubber, neoprene or chlorobutyl, or ETFE and polypropylene lined, sized 1" to 12" depending on body. PVDF and white epoxy coatings protect the exterior.

- Plastic lining max. temperature
- ETFE 225 °F (107 °C); polypropylene 200 °F (93 °C); temperature may decrease dependent upon media, pressure and valve size
- Exterior coatings
- PVDF, white epoxy
- Manual bonnet
- 902 bonnet assembly with indicating stem, bronze bushing, lubrication fitting, cast iron bonnet shell and handwheel
- Design standard
- MSS SP-88 (diaphragm valves)
- Testing
- 100% seat and shell testing; all valves pressure tested bubble tight before shipment, no visible leakage allowed
- Features
- Can be rodded out in either direction; unimpeded flow; negligible pressure drop; self-draining when piping is pitched; conventional rather than reduced port design, avoiding the reduced Cv, higher velocity, higher pressure drop and accelerated wear of a reduced port; bronze bushing reduces turning torque and enhances cycle life in dirty atmospheres; sealed bonnet offers secondary containment against fugitive emissions, with leak detection port as standard; diaphragm isolates the bonnet's working parts from process fluids; no packing gland or packing; bubble tight closure to MSS SP-88; in-line maintenance
