Due to the design constraints of this project a completely new directional control valve had to be created to do the job for this filtration unit.
The pictures below show some of the details of this remarkable unit.

Note some of the unique design features that place this modular directional valve at the top in the industry:

  • Handling Contaminants: Due to it's patented sealing system, contamination is kept out of the valves operating mechanism and hardened valve faces keep particulate wear to a minimum.
  • Ease of Operation: A 60º shift of the handle - that's all it takes to divert fluid from one bank of filters to the other.
  • Built for Long Life: Depending on what you're filtering and the type of contaminant embodied, this valve could last forever. But, in the event you do need to repair it, you'll find it easily rebuildable.
  • Simplicity: This is, of course, the key to intelligent design. This valve is so simple it's beautiful. Containing a minimum of components, it is designed so that it can only be assembled one way. It cannot be put together wrong!
  • Strength of Design and Materials: All components are steel, with most being hardened tool steel. Under normal operation, the valve is virtually indestructible. Handle rotation is transferred via a 1 1/4 hardened shaft. The internal 60º stop is milled into the hardened cover plate, thus eliminating chance of breakage. Then we nitride the valve housing, cover plate and handle for a corrosion proof, hard, black finish.
It's easy to see we're proud of what we've got. That's why we call it:
