The PROVALVE® tray delivers proven performance in high-capacity, fouling-resistant applications like Coker Fractionators, Bioethanol Beer Strippers, and Sour Water Strippers. Its innovative design, featuring large deck openings, high net rise, and tapered valve covers, ensures effective tray cleansing by directing liquid flow and flushing solids downstream. With no moving parts, the fixed valve design eliminates risks of sticking or spinning. 🔹 Learn more about the PROVALVE® tray here: https://utm.io/uhOkh 🔹 For detailed insights on valve selection in fouling applications, read our article, "Consider Moving to Fixed Valves": https://utm.io/uhOT0
