VALVE DESIGN FEATURES


This advanced design features three-way eccentricity and unique elliptical seat geometry ensuring compressive sealing around entire seat and a tight bubble free valve.
G SEAT
Detail A

Raised, conical seat prevents solids build-up from interfering with seal. Seat is hardfaced with Stellite to meet severe service. Alternative space age alloys are also used. G LAMINATED RESILIENT DISC SEAL to 1000F (538C) One to four graphite layers are carefully assembled between stainless steel rings using Phenolic Resin. Flexible seal rings without glue are available for higher temperatures.

Load

Detail A

G "ZERO LEAKAGE" - SEAT TIGHTNESS The disc seal, evenly compressed around its circumference, produces a wedging effect which flexes the seal ring and reacts like a spring. The resilient seal assures "zero leakage" of liquids or gases to API 598 - resilient seat standard. Resiliency in the seal allows disc movement during thermal cycles while retaining tight shutoff as shown. G NO CAVITY There is no cavity (contrary to Gate Valves) to allow build-up of solids. G ONE-PIECE SHAFT Large diameter shaft for safety is connected to the disc close to the bearings to absorb loads with taper pin and key to allow for differential expansion due to temperature. Internal External G SHAFT BEARINGS The shaft is centered on two long bearings, chromed, nitrided, or as stellite (option) protected against the entrance of solids by O-rings (Bearing flush taps available as an option). G LOW EMISSION SHAFT SEALS 0 20 ppm Shaft is burnished to 8 RMS, ID of packing chamber finish 32 RMS. Live-loading available for long maintenance free service. Easy access for packing adjustment. (See page 8 for details and alternative stem seals.) 4

DOUBLE SHAFT BLOWOUT PROTECTION CONFORMS TO API 609

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The Velan Triple Offset Butterfly Valve provides a bi-directional bubble tight shut-off. This geometry ensures that the disc seal contacts the body seat only at the final shut-off position without rubbing or galling, providing a torque generated resilient seal with sufficient wedging to ensure a uniform seal contact.

THE TRIPLE OFFSET GEOMETRY


OFFSET 1 The shaft is offset behind the seat axis to allow complete sealing contact around the entire seat OFFSET 2 The shaft centerline is offset from the pipe and valve which provides interference free opening and closing of the valve OFFSET 3 The seat cone axis is offset from the shaft centerline to eliminate friction during closing and opening and to achieve uniform compressive sealing around the entire seat.

FRICTION FREE SEALING FOR LONG CYCLE LIFE


THE LAMINATED DISC SEAL
Disc Retainer ring Gasket(2) Hardfaced seat(1)

Seating forces are generated by the torque during closing uniformly around the entire circumference. The resilient seal flexes and energizes, assuming the shape of the seat. The compression forces equally distributed around the perimeter provide a tight bi-directional shut off. The resiliency of the seal allows the valve body and disc to contract or expand, without the risk of jamming due to temperature fluctuations. It is self-adjusting.

Radial Loading

Velan provides an extra rigid retaining ring with bolting, resulting from ASME stress calculations. (1) Seat is hardfaced with Stellite as standard. (2) The gasket is spiral wound SS/Graphite for zero leakage

NEW STEM SEAL TECHNOLOGY PIONEERED BY VELAN


As a result of extensive tests conducted by Velan between 1966 and 1972, a new technology emerged at the time for high performance, leakproof, long life, and low maintenance stem seals for nuclear power, now available for all industries and applications. Velan is continuing its efforts in updating the low emission technology which, in the case of butterfly valves, concerns the stem seal alone (no body-bonnet joint) to newly emerging standards.

ASSURES LOWEST POSSIBLE ENVIRONMENTAL EMISSIONS


The new European specification, called TA-LUFT which is controlled by a section of the German TUV agency (Technischer berwachungs-Verein), demands for critical valves a maximum leakage of less than 1 ppm (0.0014 ppm). Certification issued after extensive pressure and cycling tests with H.P. helium, witnessed by TA-Luft inspectors, assures the design and performance of a given stem seal to be equivalent to a bellows seal design. Velan has qualified two different stem seal designs to the TA-LUFT regulations.

1. STANDARD LOW EMISSION STEM SEAL WITH 0-20 PPM

OPTIONAL LIVE-LOADING
provides predictable and constant packing compression for more than 5000 cycles before adjustment or re-packing.

3. THE TA-LUFT* SEAL WITH LESS THAN 1 PPM (0.0014 PPM)


* Technical instructions to maintain cleanliness of air.

1) Short and narrow packing chamber Maximum 5 rings, 1/4" wide. 2) Large compression load required Graphite rings precompressed to 4000 psi for effectiveness of all rings. Gland torque must be maintained after installation and in service to levels shown in manuals. 3) Superior finish (32 RMS) of packing chamber and stem (8 RMS) to assure long cycle life.
Stem bearing

1) Fully-guided stem Stem bearings in body and gland follower prevent wobbling and packing leakage due to side thrust on stem. 2) Precompressed packing rings to 4000 psi. 3) Two O-Rings in gland follower provide additional stem seal protection to assure tightness of less than 1 ppm. 4) Live-loading Provides constant packing compression and is essential for this packing arrangement. 5) Two-piece flanged gland. 6) Superior finish of packing chamber (32 RMS) and stem (8 RMS) to assure long life.

4) Stem bearing to assure concentric stem rotation, allowing stem packing to provide maximum sealing effectiveness. 5) Two-piece gland with spherical mating surfaces to assure an even packing load over 360%.

2. EFV* STEM SEAL WITH 0 HELIUM BUBBLES


* Environmentally Friendly Valve

4. LANTERN RING OPTION DOUBLE PACKED WITH LEAK-OFF MONITORING PURGE PORT
OPTIONAL LIVE-LOADING
provides predictable and constant packing compression for more than 5000 cycles before adjustment or re-packing.

Graphite high density

Graphite low density Braided Graphite FEP TYP.

1) The Garlock EVSP 9000 High Performance Packing is installed and then compressed using gland bolting to approximately 80% of its "free length". The inherent sealing ability due to its cup and cone technology and excellent quality of materials has been proven in standard and very difficult valve applications, all backed up by an intensive research program carried out by BP-Amoco, calling it the Environmentally Friendly Valve Technology. 2) 10% of valves are tested for compliance or zero helium bubbles with helium leak detectors, at the highest, cold operating pressure for a given pressure class (150 & 300).

Double packing with leak-off monitoring purge port. Two sets of packing rings, precompressed to 4000 psi (graphite). A lantern ring and leak-off connection allows removal of leakage, if any, from bottom packing set.

RELIABILITY THROUGH FUNCTIONAL QUALIFICATION TESTS


Reliability of valve operation affects service life and maintenance. To predict reliability, a sound valve design, backed up by a stress analysis must be subjected to functional cycle testing under critical operating conditions. To develop the Velan Torqseal Triple Offset Metalseated Butterfly valves, it required an unusual effort and extended period of time as many competitive valves in the same category, tested in our R&D, showed repeated leaks of seats and laminated disc gaskets. Some highlights of the tests performed in our R&D laboratory are shown here. Detailed reports are available on request.

CRYOGENIC BUTTERFLY VALVE TECHNOLOGY METALLIC FLEXIBLE SEAT


A double flexible metallic O-Ring seat provides a (1) static and (2) dynamic seal and assures compliance to fire-safe specifications. Each O-Ring has a double envelope, with the inner ring in stainless steel, the external in copper alloy and an Inconel spring. The (3) flexible retaining ring provides a complementary seating pressure on the disc.
(3) Retaining ring (1) External o-ring

Inconel spring

(2) Internal o-ring

STEM SEALING
is achieved by a system of high efficiency O-rings in PTFE and a graphite packing for fire-safe operations.

IN-LINE MAINTENANCE
The side entry design allows easy and quick in-line maintenance through the side cover with free access to the seat and disc for inspection or maintenance without disassembly of actuators. No special tools are required.

FIRE SAFE
In compliance with API 607 API 6FA BS 6755 - Part II

VALVE DESIGN FEATURES


G

ACTUATORS Pneumatic, hydraulic, electric or manual gear temperature.

STEM SEAL O-RINGS Viton O-rings Expanded graphite ring for fire safe. NO CAVITY
There is no cavity (similar to Gate Valves) to allow build-up of solids.

UNIQUE SEALING SYSTEM Combined with the eccentric disc rotation, the patented flexible metallic seat provides an exceptional tight shutt-off even with high temperature fluctuations.

EXTENSION BONNET with a sufficient gas column to keep the stem packing away from the cold fluid. IN-LINE SERVICING Allows quick and easy in-line seat removal and replacement within minutes.

HIGH QUALITY CASTINGS with X-ray and PT examination from approved foundries

OFF-CENTERED DISC ensures progressive and low friction seat-disc closing.

STAINLESS STEEL SHAFT BEARINGS coated with nickel-reinforced PTFE for perfect stem guiding and smooth closing.
