The FCA PR Resilient seated model Plug valve is a rotatory valve with its closure part as a plug, which can turn 90º inside the body cavity to control flow through the plug in open position. At closed, this valve solution ensures a perfect performance bubble tight and bi-directional sealing due to an accurate design concept at any size for liquids, gases and corrosive applications.

The plug valve can also be used for throttling applications based upon suitable medium and erosion resistance properties of the sealing surfaces.

PR model valve sealing is assured by a sleeve that is securely fitted in the valve body surrounding the plug to permit a quick and easy valve operation. As the plug rotates, the 360º port lips casted on the body provide a self-cleaning function to prevent media to be adhered. There are no cavities in the body so there is no possibility of fluid accumulating and contaminate the process or build up excessive pressure. As the sleeve provide a self lubrication function to the plug, the maintenance is reduced therefore reducing its cost significantly.

FCA Plug valves come with a variety of end connections: Flanged type, as standard, comes with Raised Face (RF) according to ASME Class 150#, 300# and 600#. Buttwelded ends can also be supplied, with schedule according to customer specifications.
