Asahi/America, Inc. has begun manufacturing its true union and flanged Type-14 diaphragm valves in the U.S. Assembly, pressure testing and final packaging all take place in Asahi’s Malden, Mass., headquarters.
Asahi Type-14 diaphragm valves are available in half-inch through 2-inch sizes with one-piece molded bodies of PVC, CPVC, PP or PVDF. Available diaphragm materials include EPDM, FKM or three-layer EPDM/PVDF/PTFE.
Asahi's Type-14 diaphragm valve features visual position indication, weir design for excellent throttling capabilities and built-in travel stop to prevent over-tightening and eliminate compressive strain. For maximum corrosion resistance, the Type-14 diaphragm valve's rugged body and bonnet are manufactured of solid thermoplastic materials. Asahi Type-14 diaphragm valves can be electrically or pneumatically actuated.
