The bevelled, solids-cutting gate is the right architecture for rag- and grit-laden sludge lines where a ball or butterfly valve fouls — this is the first AVCO product in the catalog to name wastewater directly, notable given the rest of the line reads oil-gas-chemical pressure/fire-safety spec sheets.
