Section 4<br />
Divert Valves<br />
Divert valves for the pharmaceutical and bio-processing<br />
industries are used for converging media from two pipes<br />
into one (W valve), or for diverting media from one pipe<br />
into two pipes (X valve). This divert function is also known<br />
as non-slamming divert.<br />
4<br />
The valve stem has two gaskets, one upper and one lower.<br />
Dependent on the valve status, either one or the other of the<br />
valve seats is shut while the other is fully open.<br />
One seal is always used on the one-part valve disk in order<br />
to shut-off the pipes from each other (upper – central or<br />
lower – central). If the seal fails, the media in the pipes<br />
may intermix.<br />
