Some Applications Wear Out Equipment Faster Than Others

Froth treatment processes expose valves to continuous erosion, abrasive particles, and high-velocity flow conditions that can significantly shorten equipment life. Selecting equipment designed for these environments helps reduce maintenance demands and improve long-term operating performance.

More time in service. Less time in repair.

The Emerson Fisher™ Slurry Vee-Ball™ V150S was developed specifically for applications where erosion and abrasive wear are constant challenges. Its reverse-flow design helps protect internal valve components and downstream piping from high-velocity flow while maintaining predictable control performance throughout the wear cycle. In many installations, operators have achieved up to a 4× increase in valve lifespan, allowing maintenance teams to extend replacement intervals and reduce operational disruption.

Extend replacement intervals in erosive service
Maintain predictable control performance over time
Reduce maintenance-related process interruptions
Lower the lifecycle cost of sever-service applications

A customer operating an injection column with highly abrasive slurry was experiencing premature valve failures. After installing the Emerson Fisher™ V150S slurry control valve, valve lifespan increased from 8–12 months to 18–24 months, generating approximately $533,000 in annual savings through reduced maintenance and replacement requirements.
