Throttling Valve Design Features
Replaceable 4400 Stainless Steel Seat/Venturi
The venturi is an integral part of the removable seat. It is easily changed in-line should different flow characteristics be required or replacement be necessary from excessive wear. The orifice is sized to keep fluid velocity across the seat below damaging levels. The exit orifice angle is designed to minimize downstream piping erosion and noise. Several erosion-resistant materials are available. Consult factory.
Position Indicator
The position indicator is easy to read and an accurate indication of valve stem position.
Axially-loaded Packing System
The Axial design ensures tight concentricity, which eliminates side loading of the packing and minimizes wear forces on the trim components. This feature is critical for superior valve performance.
Mated Stem Assembly
The stem assembly is mated to the orifice for proper control. Like the orifice seat assembly, it is easily changeable should different flow characteristics be required or excessive erosion or corrosion be a problem.
Pressure Seal Bonnet
The simple and effective pressure seal bonnet provides ready access for servicing with no welds to cut or seal rings or gaskets to replace. The body-to-bonnet joint integrity is maintained through countless thermal cycles.
Single-piece Gland
In extreme environments, the simpler the design and the fewer the parts, the better. The durable single-piece stainless steel gland contributes to the longevity of the valve.
Pressure-Actuated Backseat
The Clampseal® pressure-actuated backseat provides maximum valve integrity by ensuring a positive internal stop for the valve stem and disc assembly. The pressure actuated backseat also extends packing life by securely isolating the packing from the pressure when the valve is fully open.
Rapid In-Line Renewability
The CLAMPSEAL® Throttling Valve is much easier to renew than anything else on the market. The CLAMPSEAL® Valve line provides a modular solution to rising maintenance expenses. Low acquisition cost is not as important as low cost over the serviceable life of a valve. Maintaining a Conval valve is far easier and much less costly than replacing a competitor’s valve.
