Fixed Valve Trays
ake advantage of our fixed valve tray technology
The V-Grid tray technology utilizes a fixed valve and combines the attributes of sieve and float valve trays. The tapered, rectangular valves are formed out of the tray deck and are oriented parallel to the liquid flow, thus providing unique advantages compared to traditional sieve trays. Our most recent development is a large umbrella shaped fixed valve, UFM AF™, which provides both: a high capacity and great fouling resistance. Slit trays are highly efficient radial flow trays, especially developed for the fine chemicals and pharmaceutical industries.
Main benefits
Main applications
- Lower froth height, less entrainment due to lateral vapor release
- Increased capacity and improved turndown compared to sieve trays
- High efficiency over a wide operating range through improved vapor-liquid contact
- Superior mechanical strength due to increased stiffness of tray deck, no moving parts and therefore no wear
- Excellent fouling resistance (for large fixed valves)
Main applications
- Main fractionators of refineries
- Gas concentration columns of refineries
- Light end columns of petrochemical plants
- LNG / NGL fractionation columns
- Absorbers and regenerators of gas sweetening plants
- Beer columns, PVC slurry strippers (for large fixed valves)
