ADVANTAGES
CUT AWAY
SIMPILICITY
The "Phoenix" MFC is a direct sealing diaphragm valve which consists of only three main parts: body, bonnet and diaphragm
The only moving component is the diaphragm which can operate in any of the following modes
- Closure - with drip tight shut off
- Full open - free flow passage
- Modulating - restricting flow as dictated by the pressure in the control chamber
| 
|
OPERATION
| Pressure is applied to the upper control camber, pressing the diaphragm sealing rib closed and drip tight against the valve seat
|
Relieving the pressure from the upper control chamber permits the line pressure to lift the diaphragm open allowing free flow |
A stable throttling position is obtained when a volume of pressure is retained in the upper chamber. It is this volume in the upper control chamber that determines the position of the diaphragm. This control volume can be filled or exhausted to achieve the desired operating conditions
RELIABILITY
The "Phoenix" MFC is ideal for industrial, mining, municipal, irrigation and fire protection applications as no shafts, seals, or guiding bearings exits in the valve which could be corroded or eroded by dirty, abrasive, or chemically contaminated media.The valve can be installed in any position enabling its utilization in various applications.
The valve can be controlled by line media pressure, or if this is unsuitable, by an external separate hydraulic or pneumatic pressure source equal to or greater than the line pressure.The controlled media would then only contact the internals of the valve body and the underside surface of the diaphragm.
FEATURES
- Hydrodynamic design - low energy losses - high flow rates
- Controllable opening and closing speeds prevent water hammer
- The diaphragm is the only moving part - no shafts and bushes that can wear or seize
- Internals are unaffected by precipitated deposits
- Only pilot system will activate valve and not external influences such as pressure surges
- Easy in line maintenance.Removal of the bonnet gives access to the only moving part, the diaphragm.
