✔︎ Integral metal seat. With our proprietary HVOF RiTech® coating technology, the integral seat in ValvTechnologies’ valves is resistant to the attack of abrasive magnetite and ferrous oxides that may be seen in the steam flow.
✔︎ Body seal ring. ValvTechnologies employs a field proven seal ring technology to ensure sealing under all operating conditions, up to 1400°F. The body seal ring is loaded at a pressure higher than 20,000 psi. In addition, valves sized three inch and above contain a secondary Grafoil seal to further guarantee reliability.
✔︎ Patented coating process. The sealing surfaces are overlaid with tungsten or chromium carbide using our exclusive HVOF RiTech® process. These surfaces have a hardness of 68 – 72 Rc to allow long periods of operation in the most severe conditions.
✔︎ Live-loaded gland area. The V Series’ sealing design features a four stud, live-loaded assembly designed for heavy industrial applications. The sealing material is high purity Grafoil® surrounded by stainless steel wire mesh anti-extrusion rings. The six Belleville® springs (per stud) provide constant load pressure through extreme thermal shocks and prevent wear leaks in high-cycle service.
✔︎ Blow-out proof stem design utilizes a one piece, hard-faced, blow-out proof stem that is inserted through the inside of the body cavity eliminating the possibility of blow-out through the gland area.
✔︎ Backpressure protected sealing. Standard with the V1-1 valves, the design prevents the upstream spring from collapsing in a reverse flow condition, protecting the internals from damage and guaranteeing shutoff in the reverse direction.
✔︎ Zero-leakage shutoff. ValvTechnologies tests every valve according to ANSI procedures, however, we toughen the standard and define zero-leakage as no detectable leakage of gas or a liquid for a period of three minutes or greater. The ValvTechnologies’ standard is zero drops and zero bubbles, guaranteed.
