Asahi/America Inc., a thermoplastics manufacturer providing customised solutions for fluid handling systems in a variety of industries, has introduced the Pool-Pro© Type SP Butterfly Valve exclusively designed for the pool service industry. This valve can be completely submerged in chlorinated water. The Pool-Pro’s unique blue handle identifies that this valve is ideally suited for use in chlorinated water applications. The Pool-Pro Valve’s durable PVC-constructed body and disc provides superior corrosion resistance and weighs less than similar valves made of metal. The new Pool-Pro Butterfly Valve provides exceptional, reliable performance, and is virtually maintenance-free. Easy to install, the valve’s self-gasketing seat design eliminates the need for mating flange gaskets. The Pool-Pro comes with an ISO mounting pad, allowing for easy field-mounting of accessory options, including stem extensions, gear operators, and electric or pneumatic actuation.
