What LibertyCES's vendor documentation shows

Market-name-level evidence, same CEU caveat. The Constant Flow Valve is the genuinely CEA-relevant item — irrigation-zone flow uniformity across a multi-bench grow range is exactly the problem it solves, and it is a real named product in Asahi's thermoplastic valve family.

Type-21a SST variantStainless Steel Trim variant of the Type-21aasahi-america.md
A multi-bench CEA grow range typically has widely varying pressure drop from bench to bench — the Constant Flow Valve's real value is holding irrigation-zone flow uniform regardless of upstream pressure swings, which is a genuinely different spec than a standard ball valve sized for shutoff duty alone.
