Red Valve engineers expanded the use of the original Tideflex^® Check Valve by developing it into a Variable Orifice Inlet Nozzle that provides superior mixing characteristics. When used as part of the TMS, the Tideflex^® Variable Orifice Nozzles optimize jet velocity at all flow rates and discharge an elliptically shaped jet, producing rapid and complete mixing that improves water quality. The Tideflex^® Mixing System (TMS) Brochure gives an overview of the system which is known for eliminating short-circuiting, requiring no outside energy source and virtually no maintenance, resulting in cost savings over a long life span.
