WATER:

Any of the core Industrial products will work in water services. The metallurgy of the Body and Trim components may change
based on the type of water (sea water, heavy water, de-ionized water, borated water, etc. …). Remember, potable water must
be Lead Free.

AIR & GAS:

Any of the core Industrial products will work in typical air service. Some industrial gases (vapors) can be very corrosive so
material selection for the valve becomes critical. If handling fuel gasses there may be requirements for compliance to various
Standards and/or customer specification requirements.

CHEMICAL:

Because of the broad offering of material Apollo casts, most all of the core Industrial products are capable of meeting the needs
of the Chemical segment. Potential corrosive and erosive applications.

PETROLEUM:

Most Petroleum installations are typically concerned with materials-of-construction. As an example, Sour Gas (H2S) requires
special consideration for the application and can effect Trim and Fastener material selections. Potential corrosive and erosive
applications.

SLURRY:

These applications require a proper combination of Body, Seat and Ball material selection. Slurry applications also require a
valve that is easy to repair, in-line or out-of-line. Critical to the proper selection of a valve for Slurry service are pipeline velocity,
solid particle size and percentage of solids in the slurry.
