Direct answer

LibertyCES has documented Plug Valve in Oxidizers/Disinfectants service, including Wet Chlorine Gas, Hypochlorites and Dry-Chlorine. Wetted materials to confirm: Titanium, Zirconium and Tantalum. Documented models include Crane CPE Sleeved Plug Valve. Compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature and duty cycle, so confirm with a free spec review.

Notes from the vendor documentation

Wet chlorine gas and hypochlorites explicitly named among sleeved plug valve chemistries, chlor-alkali named industry.

Wet chlorine gas and hypochlorites both named on the same Barstock chemistry list is the real tell — chlorine's off-gassing/crystallization risk isn't limited to its liquid hypochlorite form, and the Titanium/Zirconium/Tantalum upgrade path exists because standard stainless doesn't hold up to either form long-term.

Every material and product claim on this page traces to real, vendor-published documentation on file with LibertyCES. Chemical compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature, and duty cycle — confirm current specifications with the manufacturer and request a spec review before final specification.
