Product Description

Core Overview

The PTFE-lined bottom discharge valve, also known as a tank bottom valve, is specifically engineered for the safe and efficient drainage of corrosive, abrasive, or high-purity media from reactors, storage tanks, and vessels. Constructed with a robust carbon steel or stainless steel body fully lined with virgin Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), it provides an impermeable barrier against aggressive chemicals such as strong acids, alkalis, and organic solvents. The valve features a streamlined flow path with minimal dead space, ensuring complete drainage and preventing material accumulation or contamination. It is widely used in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing, and pesticide industries where hygiene, corrosion resistance, and reliable shut-off are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What media types are PTFE-lined bottom discharge valves ideal for?

They are designed to handle highly corrosive, abrasive, and high-purity media, including concentrated strong acids (such as sulfuric, hydrochloric, and nitric acids), strong alkalis, and aggressive organic solvents.

How does the zero dead space feature enhance process safety?

The contoured, zero dead space internal cavity eliminates stagnant pockets where materials can settle or crystallize. This ensures complete vessel drainage, prevents bacterial growth, and eliminates batch-to-batch cross-contamination.

What are the maximum pressure and temperature limits for this valve?

The standard operating temperature ranges from -20°C up to +180°C, and pressure ratings are available across PN1.0, PN1.6, and PN2.5 MPa configurations depending on specific engineering specifications.

Can this valve be integrated into automated process lines?

Yes, the valve can be equipped with pneumatic or electric actuators in addition to standard manual handwheels or gearboxes, supporting remote feedback and seamless DCS/PLC system integration.

What sealing standard is met to prevent hazardous leakage?

The valve incorporates precision-machined PTFE seats and discs that achieve ANSI/FCI 70-2 Class VI bubble-tight shut-off, ensuring completely zero-leakage operation for critical chemical processes.
