Heat resistant and noncorroslve, UNIFLEX Remote Mechanical Valve

Operators are engineered to last. All components are shock- and vibe-tested.

In fact, UNIFLEX hardware is similar to valve-control components now in use on all U.S. Naval vessels. And, it weighs much less than other RMVO units, allowing higher speeds with greater payloads.

But the biggest advantage Elliott offers is ease of installation and operation. That reduces installation complexity and cost. And UNIFLEX's torque advantage means easier operation.

UNIFLEX...another flexible design solution from Elliott. Call today for more information and FREE UNIFLEX RMVO literature. : CLLIOTT MANUFACTURING
