It’s one of the most difficult valve applications in the paper industry – the production of secondary fiber for papermaking. Producing clean fiber means the proper removal of contaminants like staples, wire, and other trash. And valves that perform for years in other applications may last only a few weeks due to the erosion created in the cleaning process. To meet these uncompromising tasks, Engineered Valves has been developing specialty valves for difficult applications, like recycling, for over 50 years.

Fabri-Valve C37R/S Knife Gate Valve

Applications: stock lines, equipment and pump isolation, and filtrate

The Fabri-Valve C37 is the workhorse of the pulp mill. This valve meets or exceeds the MSS and TAPPI standards for knife gate valves. Plus, the open seat area on the C37 allows for use in higher consistency stock where other manufacturer’s knife gate valves fall short.

• Metal, D-Ring, or replaceable seat options
• All stainless steel or stainless body with carbon/ductile topworks
• Backing rings for reverse flow applications

Fabri-Valve C42 Reject Valve

Applications: Knotters, rejects, and screens

The C42 offers long wearing, hardened materials on the critical seat and gate surfaces for extended performance on reject dumping applications. Built to withstand wire, nails, fencing, and other difficult solids.

• Stellite overlay face and bore, easily replaceable seat
• Hard alloy gate
• Flush ports standard
• Over sized cylinders

Fabri-Valve F39

Applications: blow tank outlet, knotters, high density storage, and tower isolation.

Offering assured shut-off and throttling in abrasive and/or high solids slurry service, the F39 is designed specifically to provide dependable operation even in a static column of solids.

• Optional flush and cleanout ports allow wash out of hardened debris
• Replaceable seats for positive shut-off
• Diamond port for throttling

Recycling Vortex Breaker

Applications: rejects separators

The Vortex Breaker is an extendedlife component designed to stop the centrifugal force created by the vortex that moves rejects, trash and contaminants to the outside wall of the cleaner. After contaminants are spun into the valves, the Vortex Breaker breaks this centrifugal motion and allows the rejects to fall into the dirt trap.

• Stellite overlay
