Weigh the optionsCla-Val Titanium Valves: the lighter weight alternative with heavyweight capabilities

The UL Listed Cla-Val Model 100GS Ti is ideal for applications where valves are exposed to seawater, chlorine, and

other aggressive media. Constructed of a titanium alloy, the 100GS Ti is designed to control water flow to deluge, pre-

action or foam-water type fire protection sprinkler systems.

TITANIUM

CLA-VALCLA-VAL

TITANIUM

s o l e n o i d

• Titanium is as strong as steel but 50% lighter -- a distinct advantage when the valves are installed

on offshore platforms or FPSOs

• Titanium is not only high strength, it is also low density and exceptionally corrosion resistant

• Because titanium can withstand harsh environmental conditions, service life is extended,

making titanium valves more cost effective than other available options

• Titanium is virtually immune to the following material failures:

• Corrosion fatigue • Erosion

• Pitting attack • Galvanic attack • Microbiological corrosion

UL Listed Cla-Val Model X43HL H-Style Strainer

The durable Cla-Val Model X43HL H-Style Strainer is the easiest and most cost effec-

tive way to protect piping and equipment from damage caused by pipeline debris. Itslarge flow area and durable materials of construction means it can withstand the harsh

conditions often encountered in refinery and offshore applications. The body port

allows for installation of a manual flush valve to clear small amounts of debris from the

strainer without removing the cover. For more thorough cleaning, the top cover can

easily be removed without taking strainer out of the pipeline.
