In the municipal water treatment industry, “Apollo” v-port ball valves are employed to regulate the flow of water through filtration and chemical dosing systems, ensuring precise control and efficient treatment processes. They help manage flow rates in various stages of water treatment, including coagulation, flocculation, and disinfection, which is crucial for maintaining water quality and meeting regulatory standards. The ability to modulate flow accurately enhances operational efficiency and ensures reliable delivery of clean, treated water to the community.

Incorporating advanced design features, the "Apollo" v-port provides improved control over fluid dynamics, reducing operational costs and enhancing system performance. Additionally, it offers significant energy savings, contributing to cost-efficient operations.

Key features of the "Apollo" v-port include a 3-piece construction with enclosed fasteners for easy maintenance and repair, standard port and full port options for versatility, and stainless steel trim and hardware for corrosion resistance. The pressure-balanced solid ball reduces operating torque and ensures smoother operation, while compression-controlled spiral wound gaskets improve sealing and reduce leakage. The anti-blowout one-piece bottom entry stem enhances safety by preventing stem ejection under pressure, and the statically grounded ball, stem, and body reduce the risk of static electricity buildup.

The valve features live-loaded stem packing, which maintains seal integrity and reduces maintenance frequency. It also includes adjustable graphite stem packing for in-situ adjustments and a fully machined ISO 5211 mounting pad for standardized actuator mounting. Additional features include fire safety compliance with API 607 standards, CE marking for adherence to European regulations, and a 250 psig saturated steam rating for high-temperature applications.

Crafted at Aalberts IPS's facility in Conway, South Carolina, the "Apollo" v-port exemplifies American manufacturing excellence. Aalberts IPS is committed to delivering top-tier customer support and responsive field services, ensuring smooth and efficient operations from installation to ongoing maintenance.
