Trimteck’s OpVEE Control Valve is the highest performance V-Notch Ball Valve on the market today. Its advanced design features have taken into account the requirements and recommendations of process control engineers and plant personnel from across varying industries: Pulp & Paper, Chemical, Oil & Gas, Power Generation, and others. Its signature v-notch ball with an equal percent flow characterization delivers an astounding 300 to 1 turndown.
Trimteck’s design engineers have combined unique features such as an oversized post bearing system, and a large packing box with a robust bolted flange and stem blowout prevention. Special care has been given to the mechanical connection between shaft and ball, which is splined using precise EDM techniques for maximum grip to avoid any lost motion ordead band.
The OpVEE valve body is casted as a single piece, using investment casting technology, which assures an integral metallurgy, zero porosity, accurate mechanical tolerances, and perfect alignment of all moving parts. For flexibility in actuation alternatives, the tops of our shafts have been designed according to standard ISO mounting patterns so as to facilitate the use of a large variety of rotary actuators, including Trimteck’s own models (OpTK-R Piston-Cylinder, OpRPA Rack & Pinion, OpSY Scotch Yokes, etc.), as well as other manufacturers’ models.
To summarize: the Trimteck-Optimux OpVEE is a state-of-the-art v-notch ball control valve that provides affordable, precise process control to users in a multitude of demanding industries.
