MKII Univalve - A New Flexible Discharge Solution
MKII Univalve Discharge Assembly
In response to market feedback and as part of its continual improvement ethic, Fort Vale is launching a new version of its MKII “Univalve” footvalve/butterfly combination discharge assembly. The latest version incorporates a 3” 45° Highlift footvalve with integral 3” butterfly valve terminating in a slotted outlet flange with a 146mm – 160mm PCD. (3”BSTD / 3” ASA / DIN80)
The main advantage of the new assembly is the flexibility and interchangeability the outlet connection offers to the user. The valve is fitted with a 3” BSP spigot and cap as standard. This may be removed and the outlet flange fitted with a blind flange, or other outlet configuration, without disturbing the butterfly valve main seal. This is possible because the butterfly seal clamp plate is incorporated into the slotted outlet flange which also facilitates ease of valve maintenance, saving valuable time and money.

The MKII Univalve is still a compact discharge valve assembly with the usual strength, durability and safety features customers can expect of a Fort Vale valve.
