Direct answer

Yes. LibertyCES has documented Fitting in Municipal Water applications, including Asahi IMFO-style fittings and IMFO. The right model depends on the fluid, concentration, temperature, flow and duty cycle, so send James your process data for a free spec review before final selection.

Install / Failure Note

Without a vented ball valve, sodium hypochlorite off-gas builds pressure inside the fitting body — Asahi factory-drills a 1/8" vent specifically to prevent it, the same off-gassing failure mode Poly Processing's full-drain IMFO fitting is designed around at the tank connection.

A tapered-nozzle IMFO fitting and a vented ball valve solve two different real failure modes at the same water-treatment feed point — sludge accumulation in a dead-leg fitting, and hypochlorite off-gas pressure buildup — and both come from vendors Liberty CES specs by chemistry, not by catalog page.
