Control Valve incorporates the time-tested and proven Segmented
Ball–Eccentric Geometry design (E-Ball), combining exceptionally
tight control and rangeability (100:1), with superior trim wear
characteristics inherent with the eccentric design. Available as
completely automated valve assemblies with the highest quality
actuators and accessories or as bare stem product ready for your
automation needs, the 3800 Series comes in a wide variety of
standard options for body/trim materials and construction builds, from Class IV to Class VI shut off. The ever-popular TTZ Ceramic
Trim is an off-the-shelf choice for erosive or corrosive fluids and a
vast array of custom alloys can be selected for custom construction,
engineered to your specific application needs. The 3800 can flow in
the forward direction, flow-to-open; or reverse direction, flow-to-
close. The 3800 is available in a thru-shaft or split-shaft configuration.
These features allow for maximum flexibility in matching benefits to
your application. The 3800 offers a large combination of preferred
piping positions and acceptable actuator orientations to provide
maximum flexibility in mounting the valve in the piping.
