Features that Add Value:
- Valves in intermediate classes reduce total cost of ownership
- Pressure-Seal mechanism utilizes line pressure to enhance seal; ensures sealing integrity at higher operating pressures.
- Higher hardfacing thickness (3 mm) to ensure consistent hot hardness
- Disc guides hardfaced for longer life
- Customised deposition process in F91/ C12A valves to avoid delamination of hardfaced surfaces
- Live loading of bonnet bolts for F91/ C12A valves
- Special high purity graphite packing (seven rings) provided for pressure rating > Class 2500 in Power applications
- Live loading of bonnet bolts and gland bolts for all valves in F91/ C12A construction
