Frequently Asked Questions

What are the most important qualities for water and wastewater treatment valves?

Because these flow control fittings are used in systems that ensure customers have clean, potable water, they must be made from durable, easily cleaned materials. Stainless steel is the most common choice. They also must feature seals made from materials that will not break down or deteriorate when used in chemical dosing systems used for the disinfection and treatment process. Their designs also should be capable of handling organic solids and sludgy liquids without clogging.

Which certifications matter most for water treatment valves and fittings?

In addition to ISO 9001 certification to verify the manufacturer’s quality management systems and programs, it’s also important for fittings and valves used for water treatment to meet 3-A Sanitary Standards, which is the benchmark used throughout the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries.
