Extreme protection against industrial corrosion

To ensure safe operation and extend the service life of the equipment, we apply a specific, high-resistance paint finish.
This special coating acts as an impenetrable barrier against UV radiation and environmental corrosion. As a result, our gate valves maintain their structural and operational integrity, drastically reducing maintenance costs and unscheduled plant downtime.

Technical customisation for critical processes

The success of this project lies in the customisation of the internal components of the valves. Fluids in the oil and gas sector present critical variables in terms of pressure, temperature and chemical composition. Following a rigorous technical analysis, we configured the internal components using bespoke alloy materials to mitigate erosion and prevent destructive leaks.

To optimise the operability of these gate valves, we integrated high-performance manual gearboxes. These mechanical mechanisms ensure smooth opening and closing, minimising the torque required by the operator and maximising operational safety under demanding differential pressures.

Valve engineering to global standards

This supply reinforces Comeval Valve Systems’ position as a strategic international partner in the energy sector. We do not simply distribute components; we adapt and certify every industrial valve to the strictest industry standards (API, ASME, ISO). Our technical flexibility enables us to transform standard designs into bespoke engineering solutions for critical environments.

Critical functions of valves in reservoirs

In large reservoirs, butterfly valves perform vital functions for public safety and the management of water resources. This equipment is responsible for precisely regulating the water sent to distribution channels, controlling bottom intakes and managing the drainage systems required to release water in a controlled manner during floods or emergencies. Furthermore, they act as safety isolation devices, allowing sections of pipework to be isolated so that maintenance work can be carried out on the dam without interrupting the general water supply.

Double-eccentric technology

Our range of double-flanged, double-eccentric butterfly valves reliably meets these stringent requirements. Their double-eccentricity design offsets the axis of rotation relative to the seat, which drastically reduces friction during opening and closing. This results in minimal wear on components, a stable operating torque over the years and a bidirectional leak-tight seal that prevents any leakage under massive water columns.

Maximum safety automation with Bernard actuators

The automation of these units is equally critical, as the safety of a reservoir depends on a rapid and reliable response. For this reason, all the equipment has been fitted with Bernard Controls electric actuators. These industrial actuators provide millimetre-precise flow regulation and seamless integration with the dam’s centralised control system. The combination of our valves’ smooth operation with the motor’s controlled torque ensures safe manoeuvres, protecting the pipework against water hammer. With this supply contract, at COMEVAL we reaffirm our commitment to bespoke engineering for safe water management.

This project required a highly engineered technological solution to transport highly concentrated phosphoric acid slurries. This critical fluid presents an extreme combination of two of the greatest threats to the service life of any plant: aggressive chemical corrosion and severe mechanical abrasion caused by the high concentration of suspended solids.

Straight-through diaphragm valves

For this project, straight-through diaphragm valves are the ideal choice. Unlike weir-type models, the obstruction-free flow design of the straight-through series provides a fully concentric channel.

This optimised geometry offers decisive operational advantages for the fertiliser plant:

• Minimal pressure drop: The slurry flows smoothly without internal restrictions.
• No blockages or sediment: Its design, free from internal cavities, prevents the accumulation and solidification of phosphoric acid at the bottom of the body.
• Self-cleaning effect: When fully open, the continuous flow of the fluid itself carries away particles, drastically reducing unscheduled maintenance downtime.

High-strength linings and elastomers

The key to the success of this project lies in the careful selection of materials. To withstand the simultaneous effects of abrasion and corrosion, the body of the DN150 valves features a specific, highly porous and resistant internal lining.

This technical lining acts as an impenetrable barrier for the valve’s metal structure. Combined with the brand’s advanced elastomer diaphragms, the assembly guarantees a completely leak-tight seal and prevents any external leakage. Furthermore, it enables perfect bidirectional flow shut-off and facilitates on-site maintenance work without the need to remove the valve from the pipework.

Bespoke solutions for the chemical industry

With this project, Comeval Valve Systems reaffirms the reliability of its DIAVAL® brand in critical industrial environments with high chemical and mining demands. Our ability to design bespoke solutions tailored to the specific variables of each process is the key differentiator that guarantees maximum safety, durability and cost-effectiveness at our customers’ plants.

To precisely meet every on-site requirement, the DIAVAL® range is divided into two key configurations, each with very specific technical advantages:

DIAVAL® Corrugated Diaphragm Valves (W Series)

This configuration is specially designed for critical applications and the handling of concentrated chemicals. Its main design benefits include:

• • Leak-tight shut-off with less effort: The central vent reduces the diaphragm’s travel, ensuring an immediate leak-tight seal without straining the mechanism.
  • Flow regulation capability: Its design allows the handwheel to be positioned at intermediate points for precise flow control.
  • Safety with aggressive chemicals.
  • Prevent cross-contamination.
  • In-line maintenance capability: Thanks to its bolted bonnet, the diaphragm can be replaced without removing the valve from the pipework, minimising downtime.

DIAVAL® Straight-Through Valves (ST Series)

This is the preferred choice when extreme abrasion caused by solids and heavy slurries are a key feature of the production process. It stands out for the following advantages:

• • Zero blockages: When fully open, the body behaves like a continuous straight pipe, preventing pressure drops or the risk of blockages in viscous fluids.
  • Less abrasive wear: Solids, sand and sludge flow straight through without striking internal bends directly, extending the equipment’s service life.
  • Direct mechanical cleaning: Its completely straight geometry allows internal cleaning systems to be inserted easily.
  • Perfect bidirectional flow: It guarantees optimal shut-off performance regardless of the direction of fluid flow.
