Flush Tank Floating Ball
Introduction
The Habonim Flush Tank series incorporates all the advantages of the 3-piece ball valve 47
series and the TuBore™ 48 series. The innovation of the Flush Tank valve is the geometric design
of the pad, which becomes an integral welded part of the customer’s tank surface, allowing a
smooth flow and preventing media stagnation. The result is a perfect adaptor between reactor
and valve body.
The pad is designed for easy installation. It minimizes the diameter of the prepared tank bore,
reduces installation time and welding operations and, most importantly, minimizes the stress
concentration and tank deformation due to weld over-heating. The Habonim standard flush
tank pad fits most tank configurations such as dished, flat, ellipsoidal, jacketed, conical or
spherical. For special applications, such as replacing a conventional flush tank valve with a
direct flow, higher Cv, quarter-turn flush tank ball valve, Habonim manufactures adaptive plates.
Habonim can also ship the pad independently from the valve, in order to accommodate
customer requirements to simplify the vessel construction process.
Design Features
Pad design
• Mirror polished
• Various geometries: dished, flat, ellipsoidal, Jacketed, conical or spherical
• Flush Pipe (FP) – Adaptive pad with the same geometry of the pipe line, designed to provide
minimum 'dead volume' in pipe lines, preventing media from stagnating and fully insuring
drainage of pipe cavities.
Body
• Minimum dead leg between ball sphere and tank internal surface
• Three-piece design with swing-out body, for easy maintenance
• Top mounting platform compliant with ISO 5211 for easy mounting of actuator and other
accessories
• CIP/SIP purge ports ensure complete flush of the valve cavity (optional)
• Steam jacket (optional)
• Streamlined flow ensures full drainage
