Description
The Design V260 throttling ball valves are available in
single-seal, double block-and-bleed, dual-seal, and
bidirectional flow constructions with or without attenua-
tors. Valves with dome-style attenuators combine the
efficiency of a rotary valve with the noise reducing ca-
pability of a special trim (figure 4). Valves without at-
tenuators present little or no restriction to flow at full
travel.
