From a standard valve to a genuine all-rounder - Part 2-
Use as a discharge valve
Vidos valves can be combined with sequenced locks and used as discharge valves in feed pipes, for instance, with the lock acting as the discharge unit and even high differential pressures able to be circumvented without the risk of air pockets. This significantly reduces performance losses due to leaking air as well as service and maintenance costs. In this case, the vibration of the Vidos valve ensures even dosing into the feed pipe. The feed rate can be optimised by adjusting the cycle time of the sequenced lock and the opening angle of the Vidos discharge valve. Both plant engineers and operators alike thus get a simple, cost-effective solution for numerous dosing and discharge applications. This is because exactly the same liners, bodies, actuators and control elements are used as can be found in standard valves, enabling users to benefit from the global service network, a fact appreciated by international companies in particular.
