Valtorc introduces the series 390 stainless steel flush bottom tank valve release, which features a number of port configurations including standard, full port pipe and full port tube dimensions. Flush bottom valves ensure efficient draining of the liquid and/or slurry from the tank. The distinctive design of the flush bottom ball valve prevents the development of the dead area in the valve, meaning no hold up area in the vessel or tank. This action is established as the ball of the valve will come in the level using the inlet flange. There are also a several end connection options available include Tri-clamp (TC), socket weld (SW), threaded (NPT), butt weld (BW) 150# and 300# flanged (FLG). Additionally, there are a wide range of seats available, including EPDM, BUNA, PEEK, Derlin, TFE, RTFE, Viton and several others, such as the optional cavity fillers. Flush bottom tank ball valves are also referred to as drain valves or bottom valves. As the reference suggests, flush bottom tank ball valve release is commonly used to flush out the slurry or liquid from the bottom of huge tanks, receivers and reactors.
