Vee-Ballr Designs V150, V200 and


V300 Noise Attenuator
The Vee-Ball Series valves (V150, V200, and V300)
with the severe service Attenuator (figure 1) combine
the efficiency of a rotary valve with the energy absorb-
ing capability of a special trim to provide improved per-
formance for demanding applications. The attenuator
design from Fisher can be utilized in both liquid and
gas service to reduce cavitation and noise effects that
cause pipeline vibration. See table 1 for a competitive
comparison.
