Cavity-free Design “C” shaped ball eliminates the ball cavity and with it, the inherent risk of trapped product expanding to cause catastrophic valve failure. The valve seat is also fully encapsulated with stainless steel to safeguard against explosive failure.

Single Fixed Seat Seat is fixed in place with a static gasket vs floating seat with spring and dynamic seal in traditional ball valve. Static seat to body seal simplifies design eliminating dynamic seals for greater reliability, improved performance and safety. Sealing in AEV design independent from media pressure and plastic deformation of sealing elements.

Bi-directional Tight Shut-off The unique combination of torque and position seating design ensures bi-directional tight shut-off through mechanical sealing. AEV™ C-Ball can achieve significantly better leakage performance than allowed in BS 6364 and ISO 28921-1 standard.

Stringent Emissions Compliance Futureproof your facility with ISO 15848-1 certification to stay ahead of fugitive emissions regulation. Various packing materials can be configured with live-loading to achieve low emissions requirements.
