    MicroCav trim is designed to effectively handle cavitation in Valtek control valves that require small flow rates, with maximum CV values ranging from 1.25 to 0.007.

     

    The preferred application is with an angle-style valve body with hardened trim to effectively prevent cavitation damage. A slightly modified design can also be used on a limited basis for globe valve applications.

    Technical Data

    The MicroCav design utilizes a special plug that is closely guided within the seat ring. The plug head is engineered with a series of grooves that expand as they progress diagonally along the length and around the circumference of the plug head.

     

    These grooves continually intersect with each other, allowing the fluid to pass through them while experiencing a continual increase in flow area, which enables staged pressure reduction. This staged pressure reduction occurs as the fluid impinges upon itself when the grooves intersect.

    Advantages

    • Effective cavitation elimination
    • High-pressure drop capabilities
    • Suitable for low flow rates
