Series 30,000000 Vanessa Revolution Triple offset ZERO Rubbing
GATE VALVES ARE TORQUE SEATED More Torque = More tightness
VANESSA TOV IS TORQUE SEATED More Torque = More tightness
VANESSA is a 1/4 Turn Gate valve
Series 30,000000 Shutoff Capability All Vanessa valves are required to pass a Zero Leakage* test *Zero leakage is defined as the ability to pass a test per All International standards with ZERO bubbles of air and / or drops of water.
All Vanessa valves are tested to pass a ZERO LEAKAGE test ZERO leakage definition Zero leakage is defined as the ability to pass a test per ALL International standards with ZERO bubbles of air and/or drops of water
Series 30,000000 Shutoff Capability Bubbletight is the most misused term! Bubbletight in accordance with ANSI/FCI 70-2 class VI or API 598 or MSS SP61 means Allowable Leakage. iin accordance with ANSI B16.104 cl.vi 8 valve = 45 bubbles per minute 24 valve = 400 bubbles per minute

Seat tightness Advantages of TOV over Gate valves Zero leakage compared to API 598 Better packing tightness Better Operability 48 closing in 0.15 seconds! Easily Repairable
Advantages of TOV over Gate valves No Jamming No Cavities Space & Weight savings Maintenance Control capability
Advantages of TOV over Ball valves Inherently Firesafe vs. Firetested Zero leakage metal seated Non Rubbing rotation o vs. 100% rubbing Less torque / Smaller actuators
Advantages of TOV over Ball valves Space & Weight savings Less maintenance Control capability
INHERENTLY FIRESAFE The valve is firesafe by design. The valve has no soft components that could be destroyed d by the fire. The valve does not change its performance before, during or after the fire.
