Diverter Valves
Automatic “Tee” and “Wye” Stack Low Leakage Diverter Valves
Air Systems offers diverter valves that are custom designed for in-stack volume control or duct system isolation applications. The Air Systems diverter valve is our own special design eliminating the traditional two automatic dampers mounted in a “Tee” duct section and utilizes only one “flipper” blade damper and actuator integrally built into a diverter duct body. We build our diverter valves in a wide range of shapes, sizes and materials of construction.
Our Diverter Valve design offers the following distinct advantages:
- Custom design based on the application requirements
- Available in mild steel, stainless steel and special alloy construction
- Up to 1000F design available
- Available for ultra-low leakage – less than 0.25%
- Factory insulation and cladding of diverter body available
- Maintenance friendly design
Air Systems has over 20 years of combined experience designing low leakage diverter valves, offering our customers industry leading drawing and delivery lead times.
