Conval now offers Clampseal® Throttling Valves for severe service applications that require repeatable flow control and dependable shut-off. Throttling valves are available in ½” through 4” sizes through ASME Class 4500. Standard forging ASME materials include SA 105, SA 182-F22, SA 182-F91, SA 182-F92 and SA 182-F316.
The venturi is an integral part of the removable seat. Both the seat and the stem assembly are easily changed in-line should flow characteristics be required or replacement necessary from excessive corrosion or erosion. 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.
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. The durable single-piece stainless steel gland contributes to the longevity of the valve.
