Parallel Double Check Detent Assembly Valves
Introduction
Parallel Double Check Detent Assembly (DCDAs) Valves are designed to efficiently open and close two parallel check valves with a single actuator. These valves are designed to be used in a combination of applications, such as pipe system and building control, where back flow prevention is required. They also provide a control of water pressure and flow in different applications, such as water systems and fire protection. DCDAs Valves are extremely durable and are able to withstand the toughest operating environments. They are also secure, reliable, and proven to have a long, trouble-free lifetime.
To ensure the security of the system, DCDAs Valves are equipped with positive shutoff, preventing the return of water vessels once the device is closed. The valve is also able to remain closed until the actuator is activated, avoiding the possibility of any water flow. The high quality component parts and rugged construction are able to withstand corrosion due to a series of corrosion protection materials and stainless steel hardware.
Features and Benefits
DCDAs Valves features a single actuator that opens and closes the two parallel check valves, providing an unbeatable operating life and reducing maintenance costs. This type of valve is also resistant to backflow and prevents the escape of pollutants and contaminants into the water supply. The operational life of these valves is further improved by the use of innovative seal technology. These seals are designed to be extremely resistant to information and are also resistant to tears or breaks, increasing the efficiency and reliability of the valves.
Another benefit is that the DCDAs Valves are designed to reduce the need for maintenance and repairs. This is achieved by the use of a double-clad stem assembly, which protects the valve from wear and tear. The stainless steel stem assembly is also removable, allowing easy maintenance and repair. The DCDAs Valve is also designed to be fail-safe and able to withstand the toughest of operating conditions, making it a reliable and secure device for numerous applications.
Installation and Maintenance
Installation of the DCDAs Valves is relatively straightforward and can be completed quickly and efficiently. The valve is also extremely easy to maintain, requiring less regular maintenance than other types of valves. The maintenance routine is generally limited to checking the components of the valve, such as tightening the screws that secure the valve body, ensuring all seals are in place, lubricating the valves stem assembly, and inspecting the external surfaces for signs of damage or corrosion. This routine maintenance should be completed once a year.
Conclusion
DCDAs Valves are designed with convenience, security, and reliability in mind, making them ideal for a wide range of applications. With a single actuator to open and close two check valves, the life expectancy of these valves is effectively prolonged, saving on maintenance and repair costs. The heavy-duty construction, single actuator operation, positive shutoff, and secure double-clad stem assembly set these valves apart from other types of valves, making them an ideal choice for all kinds of systems and applications.
