ChannelStream trim prevents cavitation from forming and minimizes hydrodynamic noise even under the most severe liquid applications. This unique, patented design not only eliminates cavitation damage, but also provides easy maintenance and long life, even when installed in the most difficult applications. The Channel-Stream cartridge may appear similar to other competitive designs because of its drilled holes and close-fitting cylinders but here the similarity ends. Rather than acting as a flow restriction, the drilled holes in the ChannelStream cartridge are used as expansion areas for the fluid as it enters from restrictive channels machined in the outside of all interior cylinders. This prevents the fluid recovery from occurring adjacent to a critical trim surface. Successive intersections of the restrictive channels result in additional pressure losses while expansion holes connected to the channels create a series of expansions and contractions that result in a series of pressure drops. This staged pressure drop eliminates cavitation in most applications and minimizes the energy of cavitation that may still occur in others.
