Design:
-
Forged Steel Construction: The valve body and components are made from forged steel, providing superior strength, durability, and resistance to high pressure and temperature.
-
Pressure Seal Bonnet: The bonnet utilizes system pressure to create a tighter seal as pressure increases, ensuring leak-free performance even under extreme conditions.
-
Gate Mechanism: It typically features a wedge or parallel gate design that moves vertically to open or close the flow path, offering precise flow control and tight shut-off.
Functionality:
-
The valve is designed for on/off and throttling services in high-pressure systems.
-
The pressure seal bonnet design ensures that the sealing force increases with system pressure, making it ideal for applications with fluctuating pressure levels.
-
It is capable of handling steam, gases, and liquids in high-temperature and high-pressure environments.
