7. Accessories & Special Requirements
-
Actuator (if electric): Provide motor data, voltage, and Explosion-proof class (Exd IIBT4 / Exd IICT4).
-
Yoke: Consider a finned-type yoke for heat dissipation in high-temp applications.
-
Vent/Drain: Add vent/drain ports on bonnet if the medium is prone to solidification.
-
Nameplate: Stainless steel, riveted securely.
Filling Instructions:
-
Material Selection:
-
WCB (Carbon Steel): Suitable for -29°C ~ 425°C.
-
WC6 (1.25Cr-0.5Mo): Suitable for steam service up to 540°C.
-
WC9 (2.25Cr-1Mo): Suitable for steam and hot oil up to 595°C.
-
C12A (9Cr-1Mo-V): Suitable for severe service up to 650°C.
-
-
Bypass Operation: To operate, open the bypass valve first to equalize pressure across the main gate. This allows the main valve to open easily without high torque. Always close the bypass valve last when shutting down the line.
