Vatac quarter-turn valves are equipped with a position indicator marked at 10 degree increments and an open position memory stop that can be used for balancing applications. Valves 3" through 8" are available with lever actuators. Geared actuators are recommended on 6" and larger valves. It is also recommended that valves installed in pipelines with high velocity or where water hammer conditions can be caused by sudden valve shut-off that geared actuators be installed. Lever actuators can only be used for pressure ratings of 100 psi maximum and 25 psi in the reverse flow condition. Vatac Eccentric Plug valves are available in sizes ranging from 3" - 24".

The Vatac Eccentric Plug Valves are with a welded nickel seat for corrosion and erosion resistance specially profiled low torque and extended seat life. The Plug rotates in permantly lubricated 316 grade stainless steel bearing located in body and bonnet, along with upper and lower PTFE thrust washers, which ensures consistently low operating torque. The port Design (round on 2-1/2" through 12" and rectangular on 14" and larger) with streamlined internal contours give high capacity straight through flow in the full open position, reducing turbulence and pressure drop and the effect of erosive medium. handling of sludges and slurries is the therefore enhanced.
