Figure 12. GX Cavitrol III Trim
GX Cavitrol III for D N25
(NPS 1) through DN50
(NPS 2)
Cavitrol III trim lowers hydrodynamic noise and
reduces vibration by utilizing proprietary drilled hole
shape and spacing to shift the frequency and isolate
the cavitation in order to prevent damage. Cavitrol III
1stage technology is used without altering the
integral GX bonnet design.

Whisper Trim III A1 lowers aerodynamic valve noise by
utilizing multiple orifices of special shape, size, and
spacing. These orifices break up turbulent
compressible fluid streams and shift the acoustic
energy to a higher frequency range. The result is about
20 dBA noise attenuation.
