Val-Matic Valve & Mfg. Corp. has received certification by WQA (Water Quality Association) that our lead-free bronze valves are in compliance with California and Vermont’s new Drinking Water Law (effective January 1, 2010). State legislation was passed in California (AB1953) and Vermont (S152) reducing the allowable amount of lead in all products coming in contact with drinking water to contain less than 0.25% lead. All valves containing bronze shipped to California and Vermont must meet the “lead-free” requirement. Val-Matic is proud to be one of the first valve manufacturers in our industry to meet these requirements that affect the drinking water supply for our Dual Disc Check Valves and Threaded, Wafer and Globe style Silent Check Valves. In complying with these new state laws, we are now offering our Dual Disc Check Valve sizes 2”-60” and Silent Check Valves (wafer style in sizes 2”-10” and globe style in sizes 2½”-42”) with “lead-free” (less than 0.25%) bronze.
Val-Matic produces a variety of manual and power actuators that include traveling nut actuators, worm gears, cylinders and motors. The traveling nut manual actuator is designed to specifically match the torque characteristics of Val-Matic Ener•G® Ball Valves and American-BFV® Butterfly Valves. Val-Matic’s worm gear actuators provide precise quarter turn actuation in accordance with AWWA Standards and are standard on Plug Valves and optional on Ball and Butterfly Valves. Val-Matic’s traveling nut cylinder actuators provide reliable characterized closure while featuring externally adjustable closed stops to control end of valve travel. The torque requirements of their quarter turn valves are met by using Val-Matic’s motorized traveling nut and worm gear actuator package.
Val-Matic’s control systems provide reliable power and control of hydraulic actuated ball, butterfly and plug valves. Val-Matic control panels use the highest quality components and provide field adjustable operation of valves. The control equipment is mounted and piped in corrosion resistant NEMA 4X enclosures for long and reliable life in the harshest environments. Oil and water accumulator systems power hydraulic cylinder valve actuators and provide hydraulic power for valves after power failure. Electrical panels provide for remote monitoring of valve operation and alarm conditions. Val-Matic products fully comply with the "Buy American" provision of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA).
The Cam-Centric® Plug Valve meets the “Buy American” provision of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and is part of Val-Matic Valve & Mfg. Corp.’s entirely compliant product line. Available in sizes ½” – 48”, the Cam-Centric® Plug Valve features a 100% port full flow design which minimizes headloss and energy consumption. The Vee-Type packing is field adjustable and may be replaced without removing the actuator. The Grit Guard seals protect the packing from both wastewater and water media and the POP™ Shims prevent the packing from being over-tightened. A thick nickel seat is welded directly to the valve body and the resilient faced plug ensures a tight seal and trouble-free service. Using only quality materials, Val-Matic allows you to both protect your source water and buy American. ARRA “Buy American” provision certification available upon request. Please visit www.valmatic.com for additional information.
Val-Matic’s Tilted Disc® Check Valve has streamlined body contouring, a flow area 40% greater than nominal pipe size, and a hydrodynamic disc which combine to provide the lowest head loss of any check valve produced today. Non-slam closing is assured by both an angled seat design minimizing disc travel and an eccentrically mounted disc. Top and/or bottom mounted dash pots may be added for systems with extreme conditions such as excessively high shut-off heads or volatile reverse flows to further assure against valve slamming. Val-Matic Tilted Disc® Check Valves are an excellent choice for a wide range of applications such as raw water, cooling water and treated water/wastewater applications. Val-Matic’s Tilted Disc® Check Valves are NSF/ANSI 61 certified. Val-Matic products fully comply with the "Buy American" provision of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA).
Val-Matic Valve & Mfg. Corp. is pleased to announce that our products meet the requirements of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act 2009 (b) as noted by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the published Guidance of Manufactured Goods, which are produced or manufactured in the United States.
