DENVER, CO - July 29, 2025 - USA Carter Valve Inc., a Colorado-based manufacturer of industrial flow control solutions, announced the official launch of its CARTERUS Trademark six-eccentric butterfly valve [https://carter-valve.com/]. This new valve is engineered to provide reliable, zero-leakage performance and an extended operational lifespan for critical service applications across a wide range of demanding industries.

The development of the CARTERUS valve addresses persistent challenges faced in sectors such as liquefied natural gas (LNG), petrochemical processing, and aerospace, where traditional valves often present performance limitations. The six-eccentric design offers a solution for applications involving extreme temperatures, high pressures, and the need for absolute sealing integrity.

" Our objective with the CARTERUS was to engineer a valve that systematically removes the typical points of failure and inefficiency in critical processes," said Robert Carter, Chief Engineer at USA Carter Valve Inc. "This technology provides a quantifiable performance improvement, ensuring operational safety and lowering the total cost of ownership for our partners. It represents a fundamental shift in how engineers can approach system design, moving from compensating for limitations to designing for new possibilities."

Key technical features of the CARTERUS six-eccentric butterfly valve include:

- Expanded Operational Range: The valve is designed to function across an extensive temperature spectrum, from cryogenic conditions at -196 degrees C (-320 degrees F) to ultra-high heat processes up to +1100 degrees C (2012 degrees F). This single-platform design covers a range that typically requires multiple specialized valve types, simplifying inventory and system design for operators.

- Verifiable Zero-Leakage Sealing: The valve's design focuses on achieving physically verifiable zero leakage. This is accomplished through precision engineering, featuring a seal surface profile tolerance of just 0.0004 inches and a near-mirror surface finish with a roughness of Ra 0.156 m. This level of precision is critical for environmental compliance and safety in handling hazardous fluids.

- Reduced Torque and Operational Costs: A significant engineering advancement is the reduction of operating torque by over 30% compared to industry-standard triple-offset valves. Its patented cam-action, friction-free geometry allows for the selection of smaller, more energy-efficient actuators, directly translating to lower capital expenditure and reduced long-term energy consumption.

The CARTERUS valve also incorporates features aimed at simplifying maintenance and maximizing equipment uptime. The seal ring is designed for non-directional installation, eliminating the need for complex orientation and reducing the risk of human error during replacement. Additionally, chamfered edges on core components prevent accidental damage to sealing surfaces during assembly. This streamlined process drastically reduces Mean Time to Repair (MTTR), directly boosting plant uptime and operational profitability.

The valve is particularly suited for high-value applications, where its unique advantages solve critical industry problems:

- LNG: Providing secure containment for cryogenic media throughout the value chain, minimizing hazardous leaks and costly boil-off gas (BOG) losses during transportation and storage.

- Petrochemical & Refining: Offering durable, long-term performance in high-temperature catalytic cracking units, significantly reducing fugitive emissions and maintenance cycles.

- Aerospace & Defense: Meeting the rigorous demands for lightweight, reliable components that perform flawlessly under extreme thermal cycling in propulsion systems and ground support equipment.

- Nuclear Power: Fulfilling the stringent safety and reliability requirements for nuclear-grade applications, ensuring zero-failure performance in systems critical to plant safety.
