Protection of seat faces. Seat faces are outside the flow stream and in full contact with the gate, in both fully open and fully closed positions. Seat life is thus greatly extended. ? Smooth, continuous conduit for flow. Destructive turbulence is eliminated. In a full- bore valve, pressure drop through the valve is no greater than that through an equal length of equal-diameter pipe. ? Block and bleed capability. The Pow-R-Seal valve in closed position forms a tight mechanical seal on both seats simultaneously, which allows the body cavity to be bled. For specific applications, please consult factory. TIGHT MECHANICAL SEAL The Pow-R-Seal’s parallel expanding gate design provides a tight mechanical seal, upstream and downstream simultaneously, which is normally unaffected by pressure variations or vibration. (See Operation, following page.) In the valve illustrated, for service at temperatures from -20°F to +300°F (-29°C to +148°C), the seal is both TFE-to-metal and metal-to-metal. The WKM Pow-R-Seal valve’s through-conduit design provides these specific advantages resulting in reliable performance and long life: 6 in. - 12 in. (150 mm - 300 mm) Pow-R-Seal Valve Full-bore
