Strahman Models
Soft Seal Piston Valves
Soft seal piston valves are commonly used in reactor vessels and other process equipment handling high-viscosity materials, polymers, slurries, and similar media requiring dependable drainage.
The DV series is our standard offering and is offered in 4 different seats to handle a wide array of temperatures from -328º F (-200º C) to 1000º F (-538º C). The series is offered in 1” through 8” and various flange classes and standards.
The VL series is our custom-made series offered in a broader range of materials and designs, including carbon steel, stainless steel, titanium, Hastelloy, duplex, monel, tantalum, and zirconium. Depending on the material, these can be fabricated, cast, forged, or bar stock designs. It is also offered as a seal-less design to maximize potential applications.
Metal and Dual Seated Piston Valves
Metal & dual-seated piston valves are well suited for higher-pressure, vacuum, and elevated-temperature applications where enhanced sealing performance is required.
The VP series is the same technology as our soft seal piston valves, but with the added features of a high sealing, Dual Seal is well-suited for medium pressures and vacuum conditions. The metal-seated version of this series is for higher temperatures and pressures.
Disc Valves
Disc valves are ideal for applications requiring full-flow vessel drainage and unrestricted product discharge while maintaining reliable performance in demanding process environments.
The VD Series valve is a Full Flow Bottom Outlet Valve. As with our other series, the valve is available with a wide choice of options such as metallurgy, seat arrangements, sealing systems to atmosphere and actuators. Other available features are full jacketing, vacuum package, and dead-space-free connections to vessels.
Rising Disc Valves
The VR Series is a Crust Breaking Bottom Outlet Valve, designed for breaking harder and tougher crusts that our other series might not be able to handle efficiently. A variety of options are available.
Application
Strahman ram valves support a wide range of applications across chemical and petrochemical processing, polymer manufacturing, food and beverage production, pulp and paper, and general manufacturing. Strahman delivers precision-engineered ram valves designed to meet demanding process requirements.
