Viega North America announced new globe, wafer check and butterfly valves for its MegaPress and ProPress systems. The MegaPress 316 Globe Valve features IPS press ends and EPDM or FKM sealing elements. Available ½″ – 2″, this globe valve provides precise flow regulation where throttling fluids is essential.  Model 5185.1 with the EPDM sealing element features NSF-61 approval for potable water systems. Model 5985.1 with FKM sealing elements, 316 stainless steel body and components provide excellent corrosion resistance. 

The ProPress and MegaPress Butterfly Valves are available in sizes 2 ½-4″. They provide reliable flow isolation and control and are NSF-61-rated. Model 2979.8ZL is crafted with a ductile iron body and epoxy coating. Model 5179.8 features a 316 stainless steel body. Both versions are equipped with an EPDM seal, and are optimized for use with ProPress and MegaPress flange adapters. The Wafer Check Valves are used to prevent reverse flow. Available in sizes 2 ½″ – 4″, these valves feature a dual-disk design to create a more streamlined flow path. Models 2974.3XL and 5174XL include an NSF-61 rating. Model 5974XL has FKM sealing elements for more demanding applications. This valve is optimized for use with ProPress and MegaPress flange adapters.
