Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| AVCO 7100 Series size & pressure | 3/4"-12", ANSI Class 150 | AVCO Valve — Chemical Processing segment page |
| AVCO 7100 Series construction | 316SS (CF8M) or Carbon Steel; 'L' and 'T' port options, balls pre-configured to customer flow pattern at order | AVCO Valve — Chemical Processing segment page |
| AVCO 7100 Series anti-buildup option | Optional cavity-filled seats available to prevent media buildup within the valve | AVCO Valve — Chemical Processing segment page |
| AVCO 7100 Series certifications | API 608 and API 598 in addition to ASME B16.34 | AVCO Valve — Chemical Processing segment page |
The optional cavity-filled seats exist specifically to prevent media buildup inside the valve — worth specifying on pulp & paper streams prone to solidification or fiber/scale buildup, since a standard multiport valve without that option is where that buildup collects.
Pulp & paper is one of the industries AVCO names directly for the 7100 Series, and the cavity-filled seat option is the real engineering answer to streams prone to solidification this industry runs — a multiport valve without that option is a buildup site waiting to happen.
