To avoid water hammers when closing the valve while the product is flowing, single-seat shut-off valves should be switched against the flow direction of the product.
Valve type N is designed for a flow from the lower to the upper pipeline, whereas valve type U is for the opposite flow direction.
In practical use, these valves are used
VARIVENT® long-stroke valves are used for transporting fluids with relatively large particles or for viscous products, such as yoghurt with pieces of fruit.
Please refer to the catalog for information.
