SPENCE

SPENCE ENGINEERING COMPANY, INC.


The Spence Engineering Company was founded in 1926 by Paulsen Spence in Walden,
New York. Paulsen Spence developed the original patent for the normally closed external
pilot operated packless pressure regulator. This design is the basis for the products offered
today. This technology offers the maximum in application and selection flexibility. Spence
stands alone in their ability to produce regulators up to 12 inches in cast iron and cast steel.
Their pilots are used to control pressure, temperature, differential pressure or back pressure
either mechanically or with a pneumatic pilot.
Spence Engineering is a widely recognized leader in the steam regulator and flow control
field. Spence regulators are used extensively for heating systems in buildings, institutions
and district heating systems as well as major industrial plants.
In 1984, Spence Engineering was acquired by Watts Industries. The company continued
to grow and develop new fluid control and steam specialty products. A new line of pneumatic
control valves was introduced in 1986. In 1989, a range of self contained temperature regulators was added to the line to meet the demand for an economical temperature regulator.
1990 was an active year, with Spence becoming certified by the ASME for the assembly and
setting of safety relief valves manufactured by their sister Watts company in Canada. Spence
was also instrumental in the acquisition and management of the Nicholson Steam Trap
Company. In 1994, Nicholson was integrated into the Spence Plant.
Spence continued its product development program with the introduction of free float
steam traps and pressure operated condensate pumps. In 1996, Watts moved the manufacturing responsibility for safety valves to the Spence Engineering plant in Walden, New York.
Spence is now an ASME certified manufacturer of bronze and iron safety relief valves.
Watts Industries, Inc. split in 1999 and Spence Engineering Company became a division
of the newly formed corporation, Circor International.
Spence Engineering continues to focus their attention on providing single source steam
specialty products for regulating and control of steam and fluids for the institutional and
industrial marketplace. Their growth efforts are to expand the already comprehensive
product capabilities to reach new developing markets.

HOW TO CHOOSE A REGULATOR


If you already know the product that you want information on, find the product page in the Table of
Contents. Pages showing popular combinations of Pilot and Regulators are found in the Combination
Regulators Chapter. Detailed product information on materials, ratings, dimensions, weights and applications are found in the Products Chapters. All sizing information is contained in the Regulator Sizing Chapter.
If you are not sure of what you need, collect all the following information. You will need it to select the right
product for your needs.
Inlet Pressure
Flow Rate
Flow Media (i.e.: Steam, Water, etc.)
Desired Delivery Pressure
Noise Restrictions, if any
Type of Pilot Control (i.e.: Self Contained, Pneumatic, Electronic, etc.)
Application (i.e.: Temperature Regulation, Single Stage Pressure Regulation, etc.)
Application data is listed on each Product Page. If you identify the nature of the installation, it will assist
you selecting the proper equipment.

DIRECT ACTING

OR PILOT OPERATED REGULATOR?


You may be able to use a Direct Operated Regulator for your application. They are generally less expensive than Pilot Operated Regulators. However, they do not provide the same level of accuracy or rangeability.
If a Direct Acting Regulator is an option, consult the Direct Operated Valves Chapter to determine which
best fits your specific needs. Then, consult the appropriate pages in the Regulator Sizing Chapter to
select the exact size you need.
If a Pilot Operated Regulator is required, go to Page __ (for Pressure Regulators) or Page __ (for
Temperature Regulators). These selection charts will help you to quickly determine the type of product
that you need. The Pilot can be self contained, pneumatically or electronically actuated. Consult the
appropriate pages in the Regulator Sizing Chapter to select the exact size Regulator and Pilot you need.
Overall dimensions of the most popular combinations are provided in the Combination Regulators Chapter.

ECONOMICAL, ENGINEERED

OR ENGINEERED WITH NOISE SUPPRESSION?


The choice of how to size a regulator for an application is up to you. The most economical choice does
not necessarily take into consideration the optimum loading of the Regulator, which could affect its
service life. Properly engineered Spence Regulators have been in continuous service for as much as 50
years. In high pressure reduction stations, noise can be a serious environmental problem. Spence offers
a number of Noise Suppression products to reduce this problem. You will find comprehensive noise
reduction sizing and selection information in the Noise Reduction Chapter.

THE OPERATING CYCLE OF A SPENCE PRESSURE REGULATOR


The basic Type ED has been selected to illustrate the operation of a SPENCE Pilot Operated Pressure Regulator.
This presentation describes the successive steps in the mechanical cycle of the Regulator.
MAIN VALVE is normally closed.
On placing Regulator in service,
initial pressure fills the passages
shown in red.

CONTROL LINE connects


Pilot Diaphragm Chamber
to Delivery piping.

PILOT receives
initial pressure
through Nipple and
Union Connection.

ADJUSTING SPRING,
when compressed,
forces Pilot Valve open.

CONNECTING TUBING
conducts fluid from Pilot
to Main Valve Diaphragm
and Bleedport. When Pilot
opens, fluid flows through
Pilot faster than it can
escape at Bleedport, creating
a loading pressure (orange)
which forces Main Valve
open.

DELIVERY PIPE and Control Line


are now being filled with fluid
flowing through Main Valve.
As delivery pressure (yellow) rises,
it overcomes the force exerted by
Adjusting Spring and Pilot throttles.
This , in turn, allows Main Valve to
throttle just enough to maintain the
set delivery pressure.
If the demand ceases, Pilot closes,
allowing the Main Valve to close
effecting a DEAD-END SHUTOFF.

VAPOR PRESSURE

CONNECTING TUBING conducts steam from


Pilot to Main Valve Diaphragm and Bleedport.
When Pilot opens, steam flows through Pilot faster
than it can escape at Bleedport, creating a loading
pressure (orange) which forces Main Valve open.

FLUID HEATED

PRESSURE SPRING
forces Pilot Valve open.

HEATER, Delivery Pipe and Control


Line are now being filled with steam
flowing through Main Valve.
As delivery pressure (yellow) rises, it
overcomes the force exerted by Pressure
Spring and Pilot throttles. This, in turn
allows Main Valve to throttle just enough
to maintain the set delivery pressure.

THERMOSTAT ELEMENT (vapor tension type) is connected into heater outlet.


The rising temperature of the fluid (blue) being heated creates a vapor pressure
(green) on the Temperature Diaphragm. When this pressure has reached a point
sufficient to overcome the Temperature Adjusting Spring, it applies a force on the
Lever so as gradually to decrease the spring loading on the Pressure Diaphragm.
This produces a stem-by-step reduction in the delivery pressure as the temperature
rises through several degrees.
If the desired temperature is exceeded, the vapor pressure on the Pilot
Temperature Diaphragm overcomes the forces of the Spring. This allows Pilot and
Main Valve to close tight.

QUICK SELECTION CHART


FOR STEAM PRESSURE REGULATORS
Review the application data that you have collected. Consult the chart, starting with the inlet pressure that matches the inlet
pressure you have. Next, select your outlet pressure (reduced or delivery pressure). Then select the type of pilot control that you
will be using and, finally, the level of accuracy that your system requires. This will lead you to a recommended regulator.
Please bear in mind that these recommendations are general in nature and you should check the Product Pages and Sizing Section
to ensure you have selected the correct product. If you need assistance, contact your local Spence Technical Sales Representative.

NOTES:

MAIN VALVE
ACCESSORIES

MAIN VALVE OPTIONS


BALANCED CONSTRUCTION
There are installations where it is desirable to not have the inlet pressure
forcing down on the Main Valve Disc. In these instances, the E Main
Valve should be internally balanced. The balance parts allow the downstream pressure to rest on top of the disc, thus allowing for finer
adjustments in the Main Valve travel and a smoother operating regulator.

SECOWELD
The greatest weakness in a High Pressure Valve is the threaded joint between the
Seat Ring and the body. A slight leak developing at this point will gradually erode
the Body metal, thus accentuating the leak and eventually ruining the body.
Various impractical schemes, such as welding the Seat Ring into the Body, have
been tried to overcome this weakness. The invention SECOWELD solves this
problem and, at the same time, provides an easily renewable Seat Ring. In the
SECOWELD Design, a SECO Metal Bushing is welded to and thus sealed in the
Body and, in turn, is threaded to take the Main Seat Ring, which is also of SECO
Metal. As SECO Metal resists wiredrawing, if slight leakage should occur, no
damage can be done to the body or to the threads of either SECO Metal piece.

EZ CONNECTIONS
Provides the performance of a flanged connection with the simplicity
of a union connection. Unlike conventional unions, EZ Connections
do not require matched sets or springing pipe to clear cone
tolerances and do not leak after just a few disassembly/reassembly
cycles. Uniform end to end dimensions simplify rough-in schematics.
Available on 12" through 2" threaded main valves in NPT, socketweld
and threaded by socketweld connections.
See Uniflex Couplings

CONDENSATION CHAMBER
A Condensation Chamber is standard on the Type E5 Main Valve. A
Condensation Chamber is standard on the Type E Main Valve when
steam temperatures exceed 600F. Any Main Valve discharging steam
into a vacuum should include a Condensation Chamber.

MAIN VALVE OPTIONS


LOW DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE (LP) MAIN SPRING
The E Series Main Valves provide superior regulation in a broad range of applications by
utilizing a specialized Main Spring. When differential pressures between 10-50 psi are desired,
E Main Valves should be equipped with the optional LP Main Spring. The LP Main Spring
alone will achieve differential pressures to 15 psi. In order to attain differential pressures to 10
psi, optional 5B Open Elbow and 116" 4A Bleedport are required.

COMPOSITION DISC
In a Single Seat Main Valve, the Integral (all-metal) Disc is interchangeable
with the Composition Disc Assembly. The Composition Disc is recommended
for service on air, gas and water where absolutely tight shutoff is required and
is available on Full and Normal seats and Parabolic valve plugs. The Composition Disc is suitable for pressures to 200 psi and temperatures to 200F.

PARABOLIC DISC
In order to meet special flow requirements, any Spence Main Valve
can be equipped with a Parabolic or other specially shaped Disc.
Due to the fact that the Spence Main Valve is operated by a large,
balanced Diaphragm and is nearly frictionless in operation, special
Discs are not required on normal installations.

DASHPOT
In order to prevent water hammer, Dashpots are required in all single
seat, normally closed Main Valves used on liquid service, except Type
C34. Dashpots are neither necessary nor desirable on steam, air or gas
service and are not required in double seat valves or in normally open
single seat valves. Illustration shows Dashpot and Composition Disc for
initial pressures of 200 psig and less. For initial pressures greater than
200 psig, standard metal to metal seat and disc are used.

INSULCAP JACKET
The Spence Insulcap Removable Insulating Jacket is an easy to
install, reusable, one piece, asbestos-free insulating cover
designed specifically to fit and be used on Spence Type E and
Type C Main Valves. In addition to providing insulation to limit heat
energy losses, using the Insulcap also helps reduce noise
transmission. Being a removable and reusable jacket, the
Insulcap makes replacement and maintenance costs much less
than those associated with rigid insulation. Simple but effective
Velcro fasteners make the Insulcap easy to install.
The Insulcap Jacket surface material is manufactured by a two
step process, combining the benefits of impregnation and coating
processes. It contains a well-stabilized woven glass reinforcement
(result of impregnation) and an extremely durable surface
membrane barrier (result of coating) wrapped around 1" thick
mechanically bonded long textile glass fibers.
The Insulcap Jacket is available for valve sizes 2" screwed and 2"6" flanged. Jackets for smaller or larger valves are available upon
request. It is lightweight and will withstand temperatures to 550F.

AUXILIARY FITTINGS
BLEEDPORTS
For steam, air and gas service, a 3/32" bleedport orifice is used for main valve
sizes up to 8". For 10" and 12" main valve sizes, a 1/8" bleedport orifice is used.
If the initial pressure or pressure drop is less than 15 psig, the orifice is reduced
to 1/16". For liquids: fuel oil utilizes a 3/32" bleedport and all other fluids utilize
a 1/16" bleedport regardless of pressure conditions. For main valve sizes up to
8" on long pressure drops, the orifice is sometimes increased to 1/8" to
eliminate hunting or to make the valve close faster and open slower.

The maximum anticipated flow requirements for
a regulator on heating service is 500 lbs. of
steam per hour. The unit steam pressure is 50
psig and the downstream pressure is essentially
zero because the steam downstream is discharged into an open drain.
ANSWER: Locate 50 psi on the inlet pressure
scale on the left side of the Series 2000 Capacity
Chart. Choose the outlet pressure line up to 20
psig because the downstream pressure is
essentially zero. Follow the up to 20 outlet
pressure line until you come to the value closest
to 500 lbs. of steam per hour (in this case, 505).
Read upward to the valve size and we see that
the 1/2" single seated valve is the correct size. To
size for three-way valves, use single seated
capacities 1/2" through 2" size.
NOTE: FORMULAS FOR EXACT CALCULATIONS.
If the outlet pressure is equal to or less than
53% of the absolute inlet pressure:
Q (lbs steam/hr) = 1.5 x Cv x inlet pressure (psia)
If the outlet pressure is greater than 53% of the
absolute inlet pressure:
Q (lbs steam/hr) = 3 x Cv x pressure drop (psi) x
outlet pressure (psia)

PERFORMANCE VARIABLE

EXAMPLE

STEAM FLOW REQUIREMENTS


Use the top chart on this page to determine the
pounds of steam per hour required to raise the
temperature in tank of known capacity to the
required temperature. Determine the rise in temperature (control temp. - room temp.) on the left
hand column, read the corresponding pounds of
steam per hour under the corresponding gallons
of water to be heated. Use the lbs. steam/hr.
figure in the chart on the opposite page to determine valve size.
Formula for converting the length, width and
depth of solutions (all measured in feet) to
gallons of solution: Gallons=7.48 x length x
width x depth.
EXAMPLE

FOR COOLING SERVICE


Find the correct regulator valve size that will feed
a compressor intercooler that requires 100 gallons
of water per minute under maximum operating
conditions. The supply (inlet) pressure (P1) is 60
psi and the downstream pressure (P2) under
maximum flow conditions is 20 psi. The 20 psi
pressure is required to force the full flow of water
through the compressors cooling system. Inlet
pressure must not exceed maximum upstream
pressure, per the Series 2000 Temperature Regulator Product Pages.
ANSWER: The pressure drop permitted across
the regulator is P1 minus P2 (40 psi). In the
Water Capacity Table (right), locate 40 psi in the
differential pressure column and read across to
the required gallons per minute. Read to the
highest value (in this case, 130 GPM). The chart
indicates that a 11/4" double seated valve is
required. To size 3-way valve, use single seated
capacities 1/2" through 2" size.

DEFINITIONS RELATING TO REGULATOR CAPACITY


The capacities contained in this bulletin are based on a specific
level of performance by the regulator. The measure of performance is accuracy of regulation, also known as offset or deviation.
Each table is appended with a footnote indicating the accuracy
of regulation obtainable at the rated capacities listed.
Pertinent terms involved in the determination of accuracy of
regulation and rated capacity are defined as follows:
* REGULATED VARIABLE is the controlled condition of the
fluid either (1) flowing through a regulator or (2) in a process
served by a regulator. Reduced pressure, back pressure and
differential pressure are the typical regulated variables to be
dealt with in this instance. Other cases, such as vapor pressure
produced by a steam-heated vapor generator, will be found.
* MINIMUM CONTROLLED FLOW is the lowest flow at which
a steady condition of fluid pressure can be maintained. Any
further reduction of flow produces a noticeable deviation of the
regulated pressure toward dead-end shut off. For convenience,

minimum controlled flow is often considered as being at 5% of


rated capacity.
* SET POINT is the value of the regulated pressure at minimum
controlled flow.
* RATED CAPACITY of a pressure regulator pertains to specified
inlet and outlet conditions and is the rate of flow through the
regulator, guaranteed by the manufacturer, when the regulated
pressure deviates no more than a specified number of psi from
the set pressure at minimum controlled flow.
* ACCURACY OF REGULATION is the amount by which the
regulated pressure deviates from set point at minimum
controlled flow as the flow through the regulator is gradually
increased from minimum to rated capacity.
* LOCK-UP is the increase from set value due to dead end shut-off.
* Adapted from Definitions of Regulator Capacities, Standard
No. FCI 58-1, published by Fluid Controls Institute, Inc.

TYPICAL REGULATION CURVE


The performance characteristic of a Spence Pressure Regulator
is shown above. Using this curve to illustrate several terms of
reference, the following facts are evident:
REGULATED VARIABLE

REDUCED PRESSURE

Minimum Controlled Flow4%


Set Point 25.0
Reduced Pressure at Rated (100%) Flow 22.5 psi
Accuracy of Regulation, psi 2.5 psi
Accuracy of Regulation, % of set pressure 10%

The slight slope of the curve establishes a definite relationship


between flow and regulated pressure. Note that 1 psi accuracy
of regulation is obtainable at 95% of rated flow.
For back pressure regulation, or differential where the regulator
opens on increasing differential, the characteristic curve would lie
opposite to that shown. It would slope upward with flow increase
because a positive deviation is required to cancel valve opening.

NOTES

ON

USE

OF

TABLES

The lowest reduced pressures are approximate critical pressures.


No appreciable increase in flow can be obtained at lower pressures.
Downstream pipe size should be enlarged at regulator outlet to
approximately equalize pipe velocities before and after the
reduction. The Steam Capacity Tables are useful for determining
steam pipe sizes and regulator size at any desired lower velocity
level.
Reduced SeatsSpence Regulators are available with a choice
of seat sizes called Full and Normal Ports. There is a capacity
table for each port with standard plugs. The Cv Valve Coefficients
shown on the back page, indicate where 75% and 50%
parabolic plugs are available. For a given pressure drop, rated
flows with various ports and plugs in the same size body may be
compared. Thus, valve and port size may be selected to limit
velocities entering and leaving the regulator. Lower velocities
mean a greater proportion of the pressure drop occurs at the
valve seat, where it belongs, rather than in the body outlet and
connected piping.
Capacity ratings apply to Spence Regulators with Type D, N and
Q Pilots which are spring loaded and have 31/2 inch diaphragms.
Other pilots having greater or lesser sensitivity will provide
proportionally greater or less accuracy of regulation.

PLANNING MAIN VALVE INSTALLATION


A. PLANNING THE INSTALLATION
1. Locate the valve in a straight run of horizontal pipe. See Fig. 1.
2. Allow headroom above the valve for access through the blind
flange. Provide clearance for stem withdrawal underneath.
3. Prevent water hammer and erratic operation by installing
traps to provide proper drainage before and after the valve,
and before secondary PRV or control valve.
4. Avoid damaging affects of scale and dirt in pipe lines by
using a strainer as shown in Fig. 1 .
5. Provide a 3-valve by-pass to facilitate inspection without
interrupting service.
6. To eliminate excessive noise and erratic regulation with
steam and other compressible fluids enlarge the delivery
pipe size to effect a reasonable flow velocity at the reduced
pressure. A tapered transition is recommended. If possible,
avoid a sharp turn close to the regulator outlet and a bullheaded tee connection to the low pressure main.
7. Install initial and delivery pressure gauges to indicate
performance. If the pressure rating of the delivery system or
connected equipment is less than the initial steam pressure,
provide a safety valve.
B. CONTROL PIPE
1. Use 1/4 pipe for this line which connects the pilot diaphragm
chamber to the desired point of pressure control. See Fig. 1.
2. Take the control at a point of minimum turbulence. Avoid
control immediately at the valve outlet or after a turn. When
the delivery pipe expands in size select a spot at least 4 pipe
diameters beyond the point of enlargement.
3. Pitch away from pilot to avoid erratic operation and fouling.
Eliminate water pockets.
4. Locate delivery pressure gauge in control pipe to show
pressure actually reaching pilot diaphragm.

C. DESIGN GUIDELINES TO MINIMIZE NOISE


1. Size the regulator to provide a maximum inlet velocity of
about 10,000 FPM.
2. Determine the regulator outlet velocity. if it would exceed
30,000 FPM, use a Spence muffling orifice or a second stage
regulator.
3 Expand regulator outlet piping to limit discharge line velocity
to about 10,000 FPM.
4. Avoid abrupt changes in pipe size. Limit pipe diameter
changes to two pipe sizes per stage of expansion. Do not
use eccentric reducers.
5. Directional changes in downstream piping should be made
only after the line size has been increased. Use long radius
fittings; avoid bull-head tee connection.
6. Provide as much straight run of pipe on both sides of
regulator as possible:
a - 10 pipe diameters minimum to the inlet.
b - 20 pipe diameters minimum of expanded line size from
the outlet.
7. Size all piping components, including strainer and stop valves
for a maximum flow velocity of about 10,000 FPM (Exception:
An outlet stop valve mounted at the regulator outlet should
be equal in size to the regulator). In areas where low sound
levels are specified, reduce this limit by 25% to 50%.
8. To limit noise transmission through the buildings structure.
keep the regulator and piping at least 3 feet away from solid
surfaces. Use sound-isolating piping supports.
9. Apply high density insulation to the regulator body, piping and
system components. Insulation reduces heat loss significantly
and can provide moderate (3-6 dB) local noise attenuation.
10. Use a Spence noise suppressor to reduce the propagation
of noise via the downstream piping.

RULES FOR MAIN VALVE SELECTION


When you select a Main Valve, your sizing can be based on
one of three methods. They are:

ECONOMICAL MAIN VALVE


Economical Main Valve Selection is choosing a regulator that
has the line size and rough capacity to handle the load. No
consideration is given to velocities or noise. If you are
interested in an economical selection, select a regulator type
for your application, then go to the Capacity Tables and select
the size that will provide you with the capacity needed.

ENGINEERED MAIN VALVE


Engineered Main Valve Selection takes into consideration the
inlet and outlet velocities of the regulator, It will limit these
velocities to acceptable standards. See Pressure Reducing
Station Design Guidelines on the following pages for details. If
you are interested in an engineered selection, select a regulator

RULES

FOR

type for your application, and then to the Capacity Tables and
select the size that will provide you with the capacity needed.
Verify that the velocities fall within the guidelines by consulting
the Velocity Charts in this Section.

ENGINEERED MAIN VALVE WITH NOISE SUPPRESSION


Engineered Main Valve Selection with Noise Suppression
considers both velocity and noise suppression in the selection
of the regulator. For this selection, it is recommended that you
contact your local Spence Technical Sales Representative who
can provide you with a computer generated solution.

SELECTING A REGULATOR TYPE


The following rules should be used to help you to determine
the type of regulator that you should use. You should consult
the Product Pages, Velocity Tables and Capacity Tables for
additional information on your selection.

MAIN VALVE SELECTIONSTEAM SERVICE

Together with the following rules, reference should be made to the Main Valve Specification Table or individual Product Pages for
maximum initial pressures and temperatures and minimum differentialsfor the several types of Main Valve. For pressure reduction
where fast response time is important, but capacity and accuracy are not critical, select D50 DIRECT OPERATED REGULATOR.

EITHER DEAD-END OR CONTINUOUS FLOW SERVICE


RULE 1. For Initial Pressures exceeding 15 psi:
(a) TYPE E Select when the Delivery Pressure is less than
75% of Initial Pressure. For Differential Pressures of 15-50
psi, specify optional LP Spring (10 psi minimum Differential Pressure is attainable by adding optional fittings).

RULES

FOR

(b) TYPE E5 Select when the Delivery Pressure is 75%


to 96%of Initial Pressure.
RULE 2. For Initial Pressures less than 15 psi:
(a) TYPE E2 Select when Initial Pressure is less than 15 psi.

MAIN VALVE SELECTIONWATER SERVICE

Pilot Operated Regulators are not uniformly successful in liquid pressure reducing service unless the delivery system has unusual
cushioning such as afforded by an elevated tank or large air chamber.

WATER PRESSURE REDUCING VALVES


The TYPE D34 DIRECT OPERATED VALVE was developed
for application on rapidly changing and intermittent flow to an
inflexible system.
RULE 1. Select TYPE D34 DIRECT OPERATED VALVE for
pressure reducing service.

FOR PILOT OPERATED WATER REGULATORS


When a pilot operated regulator is required the following rules
for the selection of a main valve govern:
RULE 2. When pressure drop across valve exceeds 10 psi:
(a) TYPE C34 -Select for all normal requirements.

(b) TYPE E6 with Dashpot-Select where high lift is desired


or special flow requirements encountered.
RULE 3. When pressure drop across valve is between 5 and
10 psi:
(a) TYPE E5 - Select for pressure drops not less than 5 psi.
(b) TYPE E6 with Dashpot-Select if auxiliary operation is
possible.
Together with the above rules, reference should be made to
the Main Valve Specification Table for maximum initial pressures and temperatures and minimum differentials for the
several types of Main Valves.

PRESSURE REDUCING STATION DESIGN GUIDELINES


I. SINGLE STAGE PRESSURE REGULATOR

A. When intermediate steam pressure is required.

1. When to use single stage regulator:

B. When concerned with PRV generated noise, use two


stage station when specific volume ratio, outlet to inlet, is
greater than 3 to 1, unless manufacturer offers
assurance or other means of meeting noise specification.

A. When load turndown requirement is generally no greater


than 10:1.
B. When ratio of specific volume of steam, outlet to inlet, is
no greater than 3 to 1.
C. When only one reduced steam pressure level is
required.

II. PARALLEL PRESSURE REGULATORS


1. When to use parallel pressure regulator stations:
A. When maximum specified capacity requires selection of
a pressure regulator greater than 12 inch pipe size. (It
may be more economical to install two smaller valves
than one very large one.)
B. When normal conditions require operation at 10% or
less of specified maximum capacity for sustained
periods.

C. When complying with Power Piping Code ANSI B31.11986, which reads, in part, in district heating and steam
distribution systems where the steam pressure does not
exceed 400 psi (2758 kPa) and where the use of relief
valves and vent piping are not feasible, two or more
pressure reducing valves may be installed in series, each
set at or below the safe working pressure of equipment
served and no relief valve is required.

IV. TWO STAGE


PARALLEL PRESSURE REGULATORS
1. Whenever any condition from II and any condition from III
applies.

SPACE CONSIDERATIONS FOR REDUCING STATIONS

C. When there are two distinct load requirements; i.e.,


summer/winter operation.

1. Following are rules of thumb for approximating space


requirements for installing reducing stations:

2. When to use a pneumatically operated parallel pressure


regulator station:

A. Single stage (with or without noise suppressors)

A. When the combined accuracy of regulation of


mechanically operated controls is unacceptable.
For Spence mechanically operated regulators normal
sizing/selection results in accuracy of regulation of
approximately 5% of set pressure. Combined accuracy
of regulation of mechanically operated parallel installed
regulators is approximately 10% of set pressure.
Pneumatically operated regulators equipped with reset
maintain set point within 1% for all sustained flows.

Inlet side: ten (10) diameters of PRV pipe size


Outlet side: twenty (20) diameters of final pipe size, where
final pipe size is determined on the basis of 10,000 fpm
line velocity.
B. Two stage
Inlet side of primary: ten (10) diameters of PRV pipe size.
Intermediate: twenty (20) diameters of secondary PRV pipe
size.

III. TWO STAGE PRESSURE REGULATORS

Outlet side: twenty (20) diameters of final pipe size, where


final pipe size is determined on the basis of 10,000 fpm
line velocity.

1. When to use two stage pressure regulator stations:

C. Two stage with muffling orifice; same as A above.

Primary PRV requires optional base bypass and 1/8" bleedport.

The Parabolic Discs given in the above table are designed to:
a) Improve performance at minimum flows by improving stability over wide flow ranges.
b) Provide easy field conversion to obtain a substantial increase or decrease in regulator Cv to meet system load requirements.
c) Facilitate selection of smaller size safety relief valves.
d) Size more precisely to the required Cv, thereby eliminating one of the most frequent causes of poor performance.

NOTES

ON

SELECTION

OF

PILOTS

D SERIES PILOTS meet the requirements of the majority of all


pressure regulator problems. They are spring-loaded. Other
Pilots are modifications of the D Series for specific purposes.
A SERIES PILOTS are air-loaded. These Pilots are recommended where frequent changes in setting must be made and
the Regulator is not easily accessible.
In any one Series of Pilots a larger Diaphragm will produce closer
accuracy of control but with less range in delivery pressure.

Water Service Pilot operated Regulators are not uniformly


satisfactory as water reducing valves unless the delivery
system has the ample cushioning afforded by an elevated tank
or air chamber. When the flow is intermittent to an inflexible
system, the SPENCE Type D34 Direct Operated Pressure
Reducing Valve is recommended.

SELECTING TEMPERATURE PILOTS


Any of the Main Valves described in the Main Valve Section can
be combined with any of the Pilots listed below, to produce the
SPENCE Temperature Regulator. This Regulator is designed to
control the flow of fluid to a heating or cooling element so as to
maintain a constant, adjustable, precise predetermined temperature. Pilots fully stroke valve within 5F. The table below lists
the principal Temperature Pilots.
The Thermostats of these SPENCE Pilots are of the Vapor
Tension Type. They are ruggedly constructed and will not be
injured by overheating.

These SPENCE Temperature Pilots can be furnished with 150F


range of temperature adjustment on special order. It should be
noted that since heavier Adjusting Springs are required for this
greater range the regulation will not be quite so accurate.

SELECTION

OF

PILOTS

HEATING CONTROL Single Pilot Types T134 and Combination Pilot Type T14D2 reduce the steam pressure as well as
regulate the output temperature. A choice should be made
according to the maximum required delivery pressure, i.e., the
pressure needed in the heater to carry the peak load. Pilot
Types T14D and T14D2 in cast steel are designed for initial
steam pressures in excess of 500F.
Of the Air Control Pilots, the Type T61 is the general choice.
The Type T60 is used for temperature indication or for remote
adjustment. The required heater pressure will determine the
choice of the A Series Pilot. See Product Pages.

COOLING CONTROL Pilot Type T52 is employed With Type


E or C Series Main Valves to control temperature by regulating
the flow of a cooling medium. This Pilot opens the Main Valve on
rising temperature and exercises no control over the delivery
pressure. The Air Control Pilots can be furnished with increasing
air signal on temperature rise for use in cooling control.
TEMPERATURE RANGES Selection of the following ranges of
temperature adjustment is recommended for the services noted:
50F to 150F Room or air duct control
120F to 220F Domestic or laundry hot water service.
70F to 170F Fuel oil preheating.

SELECTING DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE PILOTS


SPENCE Differential Pressure Regulators may usually be classified in one or the other of the following groups:

sure on a steam atomizing oil burner at a constant differential


above the oil pressure at the nozzle.

1. Control of the delivery pressure at a constant, adjustable, predetermined differential above another source of fluid pressure.
This case is illustrated by the use of the SPENCE Type EN
Differential Pressure Regulator on a boiler feedwater make-up
line to control the delivery pressure of the feedwater at a constant differential above the boiler steam pressure. Another
example is the use of the Type EN to control the steam pres-

2. Control of the differential pressure or pressure drop across


the Pressure Regulator itself. This case is illustrated by the use
of the SPENCE Type EN24 Differential Pressure Regulator
installed in parallel with a heat exchanger to maintain a constant differential across it, thereby limiting the flow rate of
fluid through the heater.

NOTES

ON

SELECTION

OF

PILOTS

TYPE N AND N33 PILOTS require that the delivery pressure


(pressure of fluid discharged from the Regulator) be controlled
at a given differential above some separate source of loading
pressure.
TYPE N meets the requirements of most boiler feedwater
make-up and steam atomizing oil burner differential control
problems as described in the first group in the above table.

TYPE N33 is a version of the Type N in which two separated


diaphragms are employed to preclude the possibility of contact
between the two fluids applied to the pilot.
TYPE N20 is a differential relief pilot which causes the Main
Valve to open when its initial pressure exceeds the loading
pressure by a set differential.

SELECTING BACK PRESSURE PILOTS


Any of the Main Valves described in the Main Valve Section can
be combined with any of the Pilots listed below to produce the
SPENCE Back Pressure Regulator. Provided the delivery (discharge) pressure is sufficiently below the desired back pressure
to operate the Regulator, it will maintain a steady back pressure
regardless of fluctuations in the load. The Pilot is guaranteed to
shut tight when the back pressure falls below a predetermined

setting. The table below lists the principal Back Pressure Pilots.
THE SPENCE BACK PRESSURE REGULATOR IS NOT A
SAFETY VALVE AND SHOULD NEVER BE USED AS SUCH.
The discharge pressure must always be low enough in relation
to the back pressure to provide the required minimum differential listed in the Main Valve Selection Chart in the Technical

than that flowing through the regulator. Type F Series Pilots are
also recommended for usual back pressure service in the event
that long control pipes are unavoidable.

SELECTING PUMP GOVERNOR PILOTS


SPENCE Pump Governors are classified in four groups as follows:
1. Constant Pressure Pump Governor which is illustrated by
the SPENCE Type EP14 Pump Governor. This Regulator
governs the steam supply to a pump, either reciprocating or
turbine-driven, and maintains a constant, adjustable pump
discharge pressure.
2. Excess Pressure Pump Governor which is illustrated by the
SPENCE Type EN Differential Pressure Regulator. Although
this Regulator is not a Pump Governor, it is recommended to
govern the steam supply to boiler feed pump where it is
desired to maintain the pump discharge pressure at a constant, adjustable differential pressure in excess of the boiler
steam pressure.

3. Vacuum Pump Governor which is illustrated by the SPENCE


Type EF46 Pump Governor. This Regulator governs the
steam supply to a vacuum pump and maintains a constant,
adjustable vacuum on the pump suction.
4.Differential Control for electric motor-driven centrifugal pumps
which is illustrated by the SPENCE Type EN Differential
Pressure Regulator. Although this Regulator is not a Pump
Governor, it is recommended to maintain a constant, adjustable differential between the feedwater pressure and the boiler
steam pressure; i.e., a constant pressure drop across the
feedwater regulator.

SELECTION

OF

PILOTS

P SERIES PILOTS are used for constant pressure control. In


this Series a larger Diaphragm will produce closer accuracy of
control but with less range in pump discharge pressure.
TYPE F46 is a vacuum pump governor Pilot.
TYPE N is a differential pressure Pilot which is applied to the
discharge of a constant speed centrifugal pump to effect

excess pressure control. The design of the Pilot requires that


the delivery pressure (pressure of fluid discharged from Regulator) be controlled at a given differential above some separate
source of loading pressure. In typical service, boiler feedwater
flows through the Regulator and is delivered at constant excess
pressure above the boiler steam pressure.

Used at such low pressure drops, a 1 psi deviation of reduced
pressure at rated capacity is a significant portion of the total
drop. It must be accounted for in calculations dealing with a
subcritical flow condition.
Also, because E2 valve opening, for 1 psi accuracy of
regulation, varies with the pressure drop, a regulation factor K
is inserted in the formula.
Cv=

W
2.1 K

Where

P(P1 +P2)

K = Factor from accompanying table


Cv = Valve coefficient
W = Flow, #/Hr. (saturated steam)
P = P nominal plus 1 psi
P1 = Inlet pressure, psia (psi + 14.7)
P2 = Reduced pressure, psia (psi + 14.7)
P2 = P2 nominal (set point value) minus 1 psi
P = Pressure drop, psi

NOTE: When computing W for safety valve sizing, use K = 1.0

VALVE SIZE SELECTION

EXAMPLE

Prior to selecting valve size, the maximum required flow and


the pressure drop across the valve must be determined. Enter
the Capacity Chart at the maximum required flow GPM and
follow vertically to the intersection of the horizontal pressure
drop line. The valve size nearest to, but to the right of this
intersection is the smallest valve that will satisfy the flow
requirements.
The vertical portion of the curves indicate the flow at which
approximately 15 feet per second velocity is reached. By
selecting the next larger size valve, a lower velocity may be
maintained. For general service, 8 to 10 feet per second is
recommended.

Required maximum flow is 100 GPM, Inlet Pressure is 60 psi,


Delivery Pressure is 35 psi (Pressure drop is 25 psi). Enter the
Capacity Chart at the 100 GPM line and follow up to 25 psi
pressure drop. It falls to the right of the 11/2" valve size line,
therefore 2" is the minimum valve size required.

SIZING D36 WATER PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE


GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

EXAMPLE

When sizing a water valve, the following points should be


considered:

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS
Initial Pressure
Reduced No Flow Pressure
Capacity Required
Allowable Droop

(a) The recommended velocity in the pipe (8-10 ft./sec.)


(b) The droop which is the fall-off pressure below the no flow
pressure setting.

100 PSIG
50 PSIG (lock-up pressure)
30 GPM
10-15 PSIG

1. Enter Capacities vs. Droop Chart, below, at 30 GPM. Move


up until you intersect a curve line (possibly more than one
curve). e.g. points (a), (b)etc.

FLOW VS. VELOCITY CHART


(Specific Gravity of 1)

The lowest point indicates the minimum size valve required


(3/4") at a droop of approximately 16 psi.

2. Enter Flow vs. Velocity Chart (left) at 30 GPM and move up


until you reach the 3/4" pipe size curve. Move downward and
note that the velocity is approximately 18.5 ft./sec., which is
unacceptably high.
At the point of intersection of 30 GPM with the next valve
curve (1"), the velocity will be approximately 11 ft./sec.,
which is closer to the recommended value.
Referring back to the Capacities vs. Droop Chart, you will
find that the droop for a 1" valve is only 11 psig, which is also
more acceptable.
SELECT A 1" TYPE D36

NOTE: The capacities shown in the Capacities vs. Droop


Chart are based on a difference of 50 psig or more between
the initial pressure and the regulator lock-up pressure.
Where this difference is less than 50 psig, deduct 20% from
the capacity obtained.

CAPACITY TABLE

Given an initial steam pressure of 100 PSIG and a required flow


of 500 #/hr. at a reduced pressure of 30 PSIG, determine
droop, minimum controllable flow pressure and valve size.
In the Capacity Table opposite, the droop has been fixed at
25% of the maximum range of the adjusting spring. Therefore,
for a 30 PSIG delivery pressure, a 25-80 adjusting spring
would be selected. Thus, the droop is (25% x 80 = 20) 20 PSI.
Minimum controllable flow pressure = Reduced Pressure +
Droop = 30 + 20 = 50 PSIG
Entering the Capacity Table at a minimum controllable flow pressure (OUT) of 50 PSIG, an initial pressure (IN) of 100 PSIG, the
smallest valve size capable of delivering 500 #/hr. is the 1" size.

Given an initial steam pressure of 150 psig and a required flow


of 900 #/hr. at a reduced pressure of 25 PSIG, determine the
valve size, droop and minimum controllable flow pressure.
P2 = (25 + 14.7) = 39.7 = .24 thus P = .24P < .58P

P1 (150 + 14.7) 164.7
Therefore, use Critical Flow Cv formula:

900
Cv =

= 3.2
1.71P1
1.71 (150 + 14.7)
1.71 (164.7)
Referring to the Cv line of the Capacity Table opposite, the 3/4"
valve size (Cv = 3.3) is the smallest valve with the required
capacity.
Droop is a function of valve size (3/4"), regulator capacity in
percent [(3.2 3.3) x 100 = 97%] and adjusting spring range
(10-30). Enter the 3/4" Valve Droop Chart (below) at 97% and
draw a line upward until you intersect the 10-30 curve. From
there , draw a line left to the vertical axis. Droop in this case is
11 PSIG.
Minimum Controllable Flow Pressure = Reduced Pressure +
Droop = 25 + 11 = 36 PSIG
Repeating the above procedure substituting a 1" valve size
with a maximum Cv of 4.9, droop would be 8 PSIG and
minimum controllable flow pressure would be 33 PSIG.

packing is selected or specified, use alternating rings of braided
and die-cut anti-extrusion rings. Live-loaded PTFE V-ring packing
shall be used to 450F. Packing gland, clamp, studs and nuts
shall be of 300 Series stainless steel. Cage type guiding and
throttling shall be used for 2" valves and larger. Valves shall be of
a "quick change" trim design utilizing a hung cage in all pressure
classes. Seat rings shall be non-threaded and retained by a load
spring with laminated graphite seat/body gasket. Trim shall be of
400 Series hardened stainless steel. Plugs shall be balanced
unless otherwise noted. Where specified or required, valves shall
be provided with stellite seating surfaces on 400 Series hardened
stainless steel plug and seat ring. Seat stellite thickness shall be
3/32" minimum. Valve characteristic shall be modified linear or
equal percent. Valve leakage shall be ANSI/ISA 70-2 Class IV
unless otherwise specified. Valve stems shall be 316 stainless
steel with a minimum 16 RMS finish. Plug/stem assemblies shall
be of a two piece threaded and pinned design. Actuators shall be
of the spring and diaphragm type suitable for 60 psig continuous
service. Actuators shall be capable of shutting off the valve
without the use of line pressure assist. Actuator yokes shall be of
cast iron unless otherwise specified and bolted or clamped to the
valve bonnet. Locknut mounting is not preferred. Top mounted
handwheel manual overrides shall be provided where specified.

BOSS HUNG CAGE DESIGN


Unlike competitors valves (which use the cage to compress
the seat ring into the body), Spences cage is suspended in the
body from a machined shoulder. This eliminates bonnet gasket
leakage, cage deformation, sticking plugs, seat gasket and body
washout which can occur with cage retained seat designs. The
Spence hung cage design utilizes a 17-4 Ph stainless steel
Belleville load ring to maintain a constant seat gasket load,
even in temperature cycling service.

The Spence Boss D Series Control Valves are specifically


designed for high pressure drop service. Pressure drop, high
velocities and throttling occur between the cage window and
the plug, thereby protecting the seat ring and tight shutoff
capability of the valve. An optional protected seat seat ring
provides outstanding wear and shutoff performance.

STANDARD CAGE

ANTI-CAVITATION CAGE

The full ported, standard cage, provides


maximum flow with minimum pressure drop.
The inherent modified linear flow characteristic
provides excellent low flow control, high rangeability and maximum flows per given body size.

The Seco-Cav cage eliminates the effects of


valve cavitation providing a normal valve/trim
life expectancy in cavitating conditions. Diametrically opposed holes, increase the valves cavitation index (Kc) and direct impinging flows to
the center of the cage, preventing mechanical
trim/body damage.

40% REDUCED TRIM CAGE

NOISE REDUCING CAGE

This optional cage reduces the maximum


Cv and flow to 40% of the normal, full port
valve. Used to provide body velocity control,
future flow expandability, or to correct for oversized valve conditions.

The Seco-Sonic cage is designed to reduce


valve generated noise up to 10dBA in steam, gas
or any compressible fluid service. When used in
conjunction with a Seco-Sonic silencing orifice,
noise attenuations of 15-20dBA can be achieved.

BOSS TRIM MATERIAL SELECTION


Balanced Plug design allows line pressure under the plug to
build up above the plug, effectively cancelling out any unbalanced stem force due to pressure. In addition to providing
smooth, high pressure control, balanced plugs allow use of
small, light, cost effective actuators. Class III, IV or VI shutoff
can be provided.

The piston seal is critical to maintaining tight shutoff in any


cage valve. The Bosss heavy cupwasher style PTFE plug seal
has three times the cross sectional area and wear surface of
competitive valves and provides tight shutoff for longer than
competitors designs at both low and high pressures.

throttling control even at pressures to 1000
psi. Standard PTFE piston seal provides
ANSI Class IV tight shut-off to temperatures of 500F.

Balanced plug with high-temp ni-resist


or carbon piston seal provides ANSI Class
II shut-off at temperatures up to 800F.

Balanced plug with PTFE piston seal and


an optional seat design with PTFE insert
provide ANSI Class VI bubble tight shut-off
at temperatures up to 460F.

DOCTOR PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION


The Three Way Globe Valve design has been successfully applied for over 50 years in chemical, refining, power, paper, and H.V.A.C.
industries worldwide. They are designed for mixing or diverting of clean, dirty, viscous and corrosive liquids, high and low pressure
steam, and clean, dirty and corrosive gases.
MIXING SERVICE (Type MX)
The inner valves in type MX seat inside the two seat rings (see
illustration A). When these valves are used for mixing service, the
forces developed by the two inlet flows oppose each other,
creating little, if any, unbalance. Thus, the actuator can control the
flow efficiently, with very little power lost in overcoming dynamic
unbalance.
The Type MX valve is also used for diverting service, generally
restricted to the smaller sizes (see illustration B).

DIVERTING SERVICE (Type DV)


In contrast to the MX control valve, the inner valve in the
type DV seats outside the two seat rings (see illustration C).
The flow enters between the two seats and the pressure
tends to move the inner valve away from the seats, adding
to the stability of operation. Therefore, the Type DV is
preferred for diverting service in larger valve sizes and at
higher pressure.

Note: When selecting a direct acting actuator, plug is up on air loss. When selecting a reverse acting actuator,
plug is down on air loss.

PACKING CONFIGURATIONS

LIVE-LOADED PTFE - V-RING


(STANDARD)

PTFE/GRAPHITE
(OPTIONAL)

Live-loaded PTFE V-ring packing


provides the most maintenance free stem
seal. The V-ring packing is both pressure
energized and live-loaded by a 304 stainless
steel spring to automatically compensate
for packing wear. Maximum service temperature is 460F (238C). V-rings can be
inverted for vacuum service.

Split rings allow packing replacement


without removal of actuator. Graphite impregnated PTFE provides 500F (260C)
service temperature, better memory and
sealing than pure PTFE rings, lowered
stem hysteresis, and is ideal for fluids
that contain suspended particles.

Available on Kombat, Intimidator, Boss


and Doctor.

HIGH TEMPERATURE
LAMINATED GRAPHITE
(OPTIONAL)

Available on Intimidator, Boss and

SPENCE/KUNKLE COMPETITIVE CROSSOVER CHART


WHY CHOOSE SPENCE SAFETY AND RELIEF VALVES?
1) Spence Engineering sets and tests all valves in accordance with the applicable ASME code and API 527. Most competitive
valves do not meet API 527, leading to premature simmering and leakage causing system problems and premature valve failure.
2) Spence Engineering Safety and Relief Valves are designed and manufactured with a more rugged body/bonnet design than
most competitive valves. This exceptionally rugged design withstands excessive piping strains that often lead to valve failure.

FIGURE 31 BRONZE SERIES SOFT SEATS


Safety Valves with metal seats will start to leak at 90% of set
pressure. A Spence Safety Valve equipped with a soft seat
seals on both the metal and soft seats (see illustration). As a
result, it will not begin to leak until system pressure reaches
95% of set pressure, minimizing system energy loss.

The o-rings in standard soft seat safety valves tend to blow out
during discharge. Spence Soft Seat Safety Valves utilize a flat
soft seat insert in the disc assembly of the valve that stays in
place during operation, thus providing hassle-free operation.
There are many troublesome applications where using a
Spence Soft Seat Safety Valve can reduce costly downtime
and repair costs. Consider a Spence Soft Seat Safety Valve
for:
Operating very close to set pressure
Heavy vibration
Hard-to-hold fluids
Occasional foreign particles
Icing problems

FIGURE 31 BRONZE SERIES DUAL RING CONTROL


Safety Valves are pressure relief devices actuated by inlet static
pressure and characterized by rapid opening or pop action.
The difference between Safety Valves from different manufacturers is how well they do this.

Spence Figure 31 Safety Valves have Dual Ring Control which


allows for finer adjustment of the popping action and length
of blowdown. This allows exceptional flow efficiency and
maximum lifting force while minimizing system energy loss.

CLOSED

OPENING

OPEN

System pressure is pushing upward against the disk which is held


closed by the downward force of
the spring against the spindle.

When system pressure rises above the set


pressure of the spring, the disc begins to lift. This
simmer/warn stage allows system pressure to
enter the huddling chamber where it acts on a
larger, secondary area of the disc. This magnified
force causes the valve to pop open.

As pressure increases, the disc


continues to lift until fully open.
When pressure is reduced to a
level below the set point of the
valve, the spring force against the
spindle will snap shut the disc.

FIGURE 800 SERIES SOFT SEATS


Safety Valves with metal seats will start to leak at 90% of set
pressure. A Spence Safety Valve equipped with a soft seat
seals on both the metal and soft seats (see illustration). As a
result, it will not begin to leak until system pressure reaches
95% of set pressure, minimizing system energy loss.

The o-rings in standard soft seat safety valves tend to blow out
during discharge. Spence Soft Seat Safety Valves utilize a flat
soft seat insert in the disc assembly of the valve that stays in
place during operation, thus providing hassle-free operation.
There are many troublesome applications where using a
Spence Soft Seat Safety Valve can reduce costly downtime
and repair costs. Consider a Spence Soft Seat Safety Valve
for:
Operating very close to set pressure
Heavy vibration
Hard-to-hold fluids
Occasional foreign particles

Icing problems

SAFETY RELIEF
VALVE SIZING

BASICS OF RELIEF VALVES


Parts
Nozzle - The pressure containing element which constitutes
the inlet flow passage and includes the fixed portion of the
seat closure. The nozzle can be of two designs: Full-nozzle or
Semi-nozzle.
Full Nozzle - a single member extending from the face
of the inlet flange to the valve seat.
Semi-Nozzle - the lower part of the inlet throat is
formed by the body casting and the upper part is valve
seat threaded or welded into the valve body
Disc - The pressure containing movable element of a pressure
relief valve which effects closure.
Trim - Internal parts. Specifically the seat (nozzle) & disc.

Types of Relieving Devices


Pressure Relief Valve - A pressure relief device designed to
re-close and prevent the further flow of fluid after normal
conditions have been restored.
Safety Valve - An automatic pressure relieving device
actuated by the static pressure upstream of the valve,
and characterized by rapid full opening or pop action.
It is used for steam, gas or vapor service
Relief Valve - An automatic pressure relieving device
actuated by the static pressure upstream of the valve,
opening in direct proportion to the pressure increase.
It is used primarily for liquid service.
Safety Relief Valve - An automatic pressure relieving
device suitable for use as either a safety or relief valve,
depending on application.
Conventional Safety Relief Valve - A safety relief valve
having its spring housing vented to the discharge side
and which is directly affected by fluctuations in
backpressure.
Balanced-Bellows Safety Relief Valve - A safety relief
valve incorporation in its design a means of compensation
for fluctuations due to backpressure.
Pilot Operated Pressure Relief Valve - A pressure
relief valve in which the major relieving valve is combined
with and is controlled by a self-actuated auxiliary
pressure relief valve.
Temperature Relief Valve (P&T) - A pressure relief valve
which may be actuated by external or internal temperature or
by pressure o the inlet side.
Rupture Disc - A nonre-closing pressure relief device actuated by inlet static pressure and designed to function by the
bursting of a pressure containing disc.
Breaking Pin Device - A nonre-closing pressure relief device
actuated by inlet static pressure and designed to function by
the breakage of a load-carrying section of a pin which
supports a pressure containing member.

Orifice - A computed area of flow for use in flow formulas to


determine the capacity of a pressure relief valve.
Huddling Chamber - The annular pressure chamber located
beyond the valve seat for the purpose of generating a popping
characteristic.
Lifting Device (Lever) - A device to manually open a pressure relief valve by the application of external force to lessen
the spring loading which holds the valve closed. Lifting devices
can be an open lever or a packed lever (fully enclosed design).
Balanced Bellows - A bellows designed so that the effective
area of the bellow is equivalent to that of the valve seat, thereby canceling out the additive effect of the backpressure. Balanced bellows are used for the following reasons: Backpressure is excessive or variable, fluid is highly viscous or slurry, or
the fluid is corrosive to the upper works of the valve.

BASICS OF RELIEF VALVES, CONTD.


Operational Characteristics
Rated Capacity - The measured flow at an authorized percent overpressure permitted by the applicable code. Rated
capacity is generally expressed in lbs/hr for Steam, SCFM for
gases and GPM for liquids.
Operating Pressure - The pressure to which the vessel is
usually subjected in normal service.
Set Pressure - The inlet pressure at which the valve is
adjusted to open under service conditions. On a relief valve
(liquid service), this is considered the point at which the first
continuous stream of water starts to discharge and runs
vertically down from the outlet of the valve. On a safety valve
(Steam, air or gas) it is the inlet pressure at which the valve
pops (not the point of first audible simmer or warning).
Cold Differential Test Pressure (CDTP) - The inlet static
pressure at which a pressure relief valve is adjusted to open
on the test stand. This test pressure includes corrections for
service conditions of backpressure and/or temperature.
Simmer (Warn/Pre-Open) - The audible or visible escape
of fluid between the seat and disc at an inlet static pressure
below set pressure and at no measurable capacity. All pressure relief valves will have some simmer. Typically a metal
seated valve will simmer at 90% of the set pressure and a
soft seated valve will simmer at 95% of the set pressure.
Coefficient of Discharge - The ratio of the measured
relieving capacity to the theoretical relieving capacity.
Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP) - The
maximum gauge pressure permissible in a vessel at a designated temperature.
Overpressure - The pressure increase over the set pressure
of a pressure relief valve, usually expressed as a percentage
of the set pressure.
Accumulation - The pressure increase over the maximum
allowable working pressure (MAWP) of the vessel during discharge through the pressure relief valve usually expressed as
a percentage of the set pressure.

Blowdown - The difference between the actual set pressure


of a pressure relief valve and the actual reseating pressure,
expressed as a percentage of the set pressure or in pressure units.
Leak Test Pressure - The specified inlet static pressure at
which a standard quantitative seat leakage test is performed.
Backpressure - Pressure from the discharge side of a
pressure relief valve. There are two types of backpressure:
Constant Backpressure and Variable Backpressure.
Constant Backpressure - Backpressure which does
not change appreciably under any condition of operation,
whether or not the pressure relief valve is open or closed.
A conventional relief valve may be used, provided the
spring setting is reduced by the amount of the constant
backpressure.
Variable Backpressure - Pressure from the outlet side
of the relief valve as a result of the Superimposed Variable
Backpressure or Built-up Backpressure.
Superimposed Variable Backpressure - A variable
backpressure that is present before the pressure relief
valve starts to open. It is usually the result of one or more
valves discharging into a common header, causing a
varying degree of backpressure on each valve connected
to the system. It will cause the spring set pressure to be
increased an amount equal to the backpressure. It can
be negated by the use of a bellows-style relief valve.
Built-up Backpressure - Pressure which develops at
the valve outlet as a result of flow after the pressure relief
valve has opened.
Lift - The actual travel of the disc away from the closed
position when a valve is relieving.
Chatter - Abnormal, rapid reciprocation movement of the
disc on the seat of a pressure relief valve.

DUAL RING CONTROL


Safety Valves are pressure relief devices actuated by inlet
static pressure and characterized by rapid opening or
pop action. The difference between Safety Valves from
different manufacturers is how well they do this.

Spence Figure 31 Safety Valves Dual Ring Control allows


for finer adjustment of the popping action and length of
blowdown. This allows exceptional flow efficiency and
maximum lifting force while minimizing system energy loss.

CLOSED

OPENING

OPEN

System pressure is pushing upward against the disk which is held


closed by the downward force of
the spring against the spindle.

When system pressure rises above the set


pressure of the spring, the disc begins to lift.
This simmer/warn stage allows system pressure
to enter the huddling chamber where it acts
on a larger, secondary area of the disc. This
magnified force causes the valve to pop open.

As pressure increases, the disc


continues to lift until fully open.
When pressure is reduced to a
level below the set point of the
valve, the spring force against the
spindle will snap shut the disc.

SIZING GUIDELINES
GENERAL
1. Recommend a 20% or 10 PSIG differential between operating and set pressure, whichever is greater. The set pressure of each pressure relief valve must be in conformance
with limits specified in the appropriate ASME code.
2. Relieving Capacity
a. ASME Section I - The minimum required relieving capacity
of the pressure relief valve for all types of boilers shall not
be less than the maximum designed steaming capacity
as determined by the Manufacturer and shall be based
on the capacity of all the fuel burning equipment as
limited by other boiler functions. (ASME Section I, PG67.2.1, 1998)
b. ASME Section VIII - The minimum required relieving capacity shall be sufficient to carry off the maximum quantity
that can be generated or supplied to the attached
equipment without permitting a rise in pressure within the
vessel with appropriate overpressure condition above the
maximum allowable working pressure.
3. Pressure relief valves should not be oversized. Oversizing a
pressure relief valve will cause chatter. A multiple valve
selection should be used in order to eliminate the possibility
of chattering. Use a multiple valve installation when:
a. The maximum specified capacity requires selection of a
pressure relief valve greater than 6 inch pipe size.
b. When it is more economical to install two smaller valves
than one very large one.
c. If the normal operating capacity of the system is less
than approximately 50% of the valve capacity. In this
case the volume is not sufficient to keep the valve in its
open position and the spring will push the valve closed
causing chattering. The first pressure relief valve should
be sized on the normal operating capacity and the
remaining should be sized on the additional capacity that
can be required during the maximum possible capacity
of the system.

SINGLE VALVE INSTALLATION


1. Set pressure of the pressure relief valve shall be set at or
below the Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP)
of the weakest item in the system. This includes but is not
limited to Steam Boilers, Pressure Vessels and Equipment
and Piping Systems.

2. Set Pressure
a. ASME Section I - One or more safety valves shall be set
at or below the maximum allowable working pressure. If
additional valves are used the highest pressure setting
shall not exceed the MAWP by more than 3%. The

steam safety valves shall not exceed 10% of the highest
set pressure to which any valve is set. (ASME Section I,
PG-67.3, 1998)
b. Section VIII - One valve need to be set at or below the
MAWP and the other valves can be set at a higher pressure not to exceed 105% of the MAWP of the weakest
item in the system. (ASME Section VIII, UG-134, 1998)

PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES


IN PRESSURE REDUCING STATIONS
There has been much debate in regards to the sizing of
Pressure Relief Valves in Pressure Reducing Stations. The
sizing guidelines presented below are the recommendations
of Spence Engineering. These recommendations are conservative and based on the worst case scenarios. The guidelines
are in agreement with the ASME Section VIII code, the
National Board Inspection Code and the Power Piping Code
ASME B31.1. It is important to understand that each local
jurisdiction may have its own set of approved practices and
those practices should be followed.
All sizing is based on maximum capacity from the source and
piping is in accordance with handling the maximum pressure
from the source. Determination of capacity through a given
pipe size is complicated. Spence recommends the computation of such values should be through published fluid
dynamics reference materials. If the capacity through the pipe
is unknown, Spence suggests that when sizing for the limiting
value, use the maximum capacity of the first pressure reducing valve and by-pass in the system or maximum capacity
from the source, whichever is less.

A. Single Stage Reducing Stations


1. Where pressure reducing valves are used, one or more
pressure relief valves shall be provided on the low pressure
side of the system. Otherwise, the piping and equipment
on the low pressure side of the system shall be designed
to withstand the upstream design pressure. The relieving
capacity provided shall be such that the design pressure of
the low pressure system will not be exceeded if the reducing
valve fails open (ASME B31.1 section 122.5.1, 1995)

2. Overpressure
a. ASME Section I - The pressure cannot rise more than
6% above the maximum allowable working pressure
(ASME Section I, PG-67.2, 1998)
b. ASME Section VIII - The pressure cannot rise more than
10% or 3 psi, whichever is greater, above the MAWP.
(ASME Section VIII, UG-125 (c), 1998).

1. Overpressure
a. ASME Section I - The pressure cannot rise more than
6% above the maximum allowable working pressure
(ASME Section I, PG-67.2, 1998)
b. ASME Section VIII - The pressure cannot rise more than
16% or 4 psi, whichever is greater, above the maximum
allowable working pressure (ASME Section VIII, UG-125
(c)(1), 1998).

2. Size SRV for pressure drop across regulator using regulator
high side pressure and the safety relief valve set pressure.
3. Hand controlled bypass valves having a capacity no greater
than the reducing valve may be installed around pressure
reducing valves if the downstream piping is protected by
relief valves as required in section ASME B31.1 Section
122.5.1 or if the design pressure of the downstream piping
system and equipment is at least as high as the upstream
pressure (ASME B31.1 section 122.5.2, 1995)
4. When a pressure reducing valve is installed, there are two
possibilities of introducing boiler pressure into the low
pressure system. It is necessary to determine the flow
under both circumstances and check that the size of the
pressure relief valve under either condition will be adequate.
The two possibilities are:
a) the failure of the pressure reducing valve so that it remains
at 100% full travel
b) the possibility of the by-pass valve being wide open
(National Board Inspection Code ANSI/NB-23, Appendix G,
1999)
When taking into consideration the worst possible scenario,
Spence Engineering recommends that the pressure relief
valve be sized for the maximum flow through both the
pressure reducing valve and the by-pass or the
maximum possible flow through the downstream piping
whichever is less. Consideration should be given to the
maximum capacity of the source .

2. In the case of failure of the pressure reducing valve, the


capacity shall be sized on the basis of the possibility that
both valves & would fail open at the same time plus
the by-pass or the maximum possible flow through the
downstream piping, whichever is less . Consideration
should be given to the maximum capacity of the source .
3. Size SRV for pressure drop across regulator using regulator
high side pressure and the safety relief valve set pressure.

C. Two Stage Pressure Reducing Stations


1. When sizing a pressure relief valve in a two stage pressure
reducing station, the conditions listed above in (A) should
all be met.
2. In the case of failure of the pressure reducing valve, the
capacity shall be sized on the basis of the high side pressure regulator (National Board Inspection Code ANSI/NB-23,
Appendix G, 1999) having the largest possible orifice size
plus the bypass or the maximum possible flow through
the downstream piping, whichever is less. Consideration
should be given to the maximum capacity of the source .
FIG. 41 SAFETY
RELIEF VALVE

For unknown regulator and/or bypass valve capacities, see


Section E for approximate sizing formulas
5. When calculating the maximum possible flow through the
regulator, in all cases your sizing should be based on the
largest orifice size available in the pipe size of the regulator
. It may be possible that an originally supplied reduced
orifice can be changed in the field to a full port orifice without any consideration to the effect on the capacity of the
Pressure Relief Valve.
6. In determining the maximum flow through the pressure
reducing valve when the valve fails, the failure mode should
be considered when the valve plug has reached 100% full
travel .

B. Parallel Pressure Reducing Stations


1. When sizing a pressure relief valve in a parallel pressure
reducing station, the conditions listed above in (A) should
all be met.

(National Board Inspection Code ANSI/NB-23, Appendix G,
1999) plus the bypass or the maximum possible flow
through the downstream pipe , whichever is less. Consideration should be given to the maximum capacity of the

E. When Flow Coefficients Are Not Known


For sizing Spence regulators and/or control valves:
Main Valve Sizing Formula
CV Data
For all other manufacturers valves where flow coefficients are
not known, the following may be approximated.
It is possible that the flow coefficients K and K1 may not be
known and in such instances for approximating the flow, a
factor of 1/3 may be substituted for K and 1/2 for K1.
The formulas in E above then become:
W = 1/3AC for the capacity through the pressure reducing
valve and
W = 1/2A1 for the capacity through the by-pass valve
WHERE:
W = steam flow, in lbs/hr through the pressure reducing valve

1. Sizing is based whenever any condition from (B) and any
condition from (C) applies.
2. In addition, all sizing should be based on maximum
capacity from sources.

Caution should be exercised when substituting these factors


for the actual coefficients since this method will provide approximate values only and the capacities so obtained may in fact
be lower than actual. It is recommended that the actual flow
coefficient be obtained from the pressure reducing valve
manufacture and reference books be consulted for the flow
coefficient of the by-pass valve (National Board Inspection
Code ANSI/NB-23, Appendix G, 1998).

When a relief valve is sized for viscous liquid service, it


is suggested that it first be sized for nonviscous type
application in order to obtain a preliminary required
discharge area, (A). The next larger manufacturers
standard orifice orifice size should be used in determining the Reynolds number from either of the
formulae below.
After the value of R is determined, the factor Kv is
obtained from the graph on the left. Kv is applied to
correct the preliminary required discharge area. If the
corrected area exceeds the chosen standard orifice
area, the above calculation should be repeated using
the next larger standard orifice size.

INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING


GUIDELINES
Spence Pressure Relief valves are safety devices designed to
protect pressurized vessels, lines or systems during an
overpressure event. The recommendations below are general
and it is the responsibility of the user to assure that installation
and maintenance are in accordance with the applicable ASME
Codes, API 520 Part II, local jurisdictional requirements and
any other requirements. Neither Spence Engineering nor its
agents assume any liability for valves improperly installed,
maintained or troubleshot.

A. INSTALLATION - SINGLE VALVE


1. Installation must be performed by qualified service
personnel only.
2. Pressure relief devices intended for use in compressible
fluid service shall be connected to the vessel in the vapor
space above any contained liquid or to piping connected
to the vapor space in the vessel that is to be protected.
Pressure relief devices intended for use in liquid service
shall be connected below the normal liquid level (ASME
Section VIII, UG-135 (a), 1998).
3. The operating pressure of the system should be a
minimum of 20% or 10 PSI, whichever is greater, below
the set pressure of the valve. The set pressure of each
pressure relief valve must be in conformance with
pressure limits of the system and of the limits specified in
the appropriate ASME codes.
4. Valves must be installed in an upright position with the
spindle vertical. (ASME Section VIII, Appendix M, 1998).
Mounting valves in any other position will cause
additional friction on the guiding surfaces and the valve
performance will be affected. Mounting valves in other
positions may allow dirt and other foreign substances to
accumulate in the valve and adversely affect the valve
action.

should be mounted downstream from any device at a


distance sufficient to avoid turbulence.
12. In a pressure reducing valve station, it is recommended
that the pressure relief valve be installed a minimum of
20 pipe diameters from the outlet of the pressure
reducing valve to avoid turbulent flow and an unstable
condition.
13. When Pressure Relief Valves are left on line during an
extended shutdown, the valves should be inspected and
re-tested due to the potential of corrosion, fouling or
tampering.
Inlet Piping
14. The opening through all pipe, fittings, and nonreclosing
pressure relief devices (if installed) between a pressure
vessel and its pressure relief valve shall have at least the
area of the pressure relief valve inlet. (ASME Section VIII,
UG-135 (b)(1), 1998).
15. The flow characteristics of the upstream system shall
be such that the cumulative total of all nonrecoverable
inlet losses shall not exceed 3% of the valve set pressure
(ASME Section VIII, Appendix M-7(a), 1998)
Outlet Piping
16. Discharge pipes shall be at least of the same size as
the pressure relief valve outlet (ASME Section VIII,
Appendix M-8(a), 1998).
17. Where feasible, the use of a short discharge pipe or
vertical riser, connected through long-radius elbows from
each individual device, blowing directly to the
atmosphere, is recommended (ASME Section VIII,
Appendix M-8(a), 1998). Discharge piping should be
designed to place the minimum load on the valve under
all conditions of valve operation. See 16 of this Section.

6. Pressure Relief Valves for use on steam, air and water


(over 140(F) shall be supplied with a lifting device (ASME
Section VIII, UG-136 (a)(3), 1998).

18. When the nature of the discharge permits, whereby


condensed vapor in the discharge line, or rain, is
collected and piped to a drain, a Drip Pan Elbow
(Spence DPE) is recommended. This construction has
the further advantage of not transmitting discharge-pipe
strains to the valve (ASME Section VIII, Appendix M,
1998).

7. Do not plug or cap any drain or vent openings. Remove


any and all shipping plugs.

19. The discharge piping should be anchored to prevent


any swaying or vibration while the valve is discharging.

8. Test gags must be removed (if supplied). Failure to do so


renders the valve inoperable and, due to overpressure
may damage the Pressure Relief Valve, the system
and/or cause personal injury.

20. If excessive lengths of discharge piping and fittings are


required, they should be sized larger than the valve
outlet. Any discharge piping that appears to be
excessive should be reviewed by calculation for backpressure and piping strains.

5. The connection to the vessel should be provided with a


radius to permit smooth flow to the valve - sharp corners
should be avoided.

9. Make sure the system is clean and free of any dirt,


sediment or scale that might become lodged on the
valve seats.
10. Apply a small amount of sealant only to the male
threads and tighten valve by hand. Use the proper
wrench on the hex area of the base, taking care not use
excessive force during tightening.
11. The valve should be normally placed close to the
protected equipment so that the valve will be fed
properly under flowing conditions. However, valves

21. Discharge lines from Pressure Relief Valves shall be


designed to facilitate drainage or shall be fitted with
drains to prevent liquid from lodging in the discharge
side of the pressure relief device, and such lines shall
lead to a safe place of discharge (ASME Section VIII UG135(f), 1998).
Stop Valves
22. ASME Section I - No valve of any description shall be
placed between the required safety valve or safety relief

INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING


GUIDELINES - CONTD
valve or valves and the boiler, nor on the discharge pipe
between the safety valve or safety relief valve and the
atmosphere (ASME Section I PG 71.2, 1998).
23. ASME Section VIII - There shall be intervening stop
valves between the vessel and its pressure relief device
or devices, or between the pressure relief device or
devices and the point of discharge, except as under the
conditions as stated in ASME Section VIII UG-135(d)(1)
and in Appendix M.

B. INSTALLATION -MULTIPLE VALVES


1. All items listed above in the Installation of Single Valves
should be followed.
2. When two or more required pressure relief devices are
placed on one connection, the inlet internal crosssectional area of this connection shall be either sized to
avoid restricting flow to the pressure relief devices or
made at least equal to the combined inlet areas of the
safety devices connected to it. (ASME Section VIII UG136 (c)1998)
3. The sizing of any section of a common-discharge header
downstream from each of the two or more pressure
relieving devices that may reasonably be expected to
discharge simultaneously shall be based on the total of
their outlet areas. The effect of the back-pressure that
may be developed when certain valves operate must be
considered (ASME Section VIII, Appendix M-8 (b), 1998).
4. It is recommended that the smaller orifice valve be set at
the lower set pressure and that it is installed up stream
of the other valves.

C. MAINTENANCE
1. Valves are set and sealed to prevent tampering,
guarantee is void if any seal is broken. The setting,
adjustment or repair should be done only by an
Authorized Pressure Relief Valve repair facility.
2. The valves should be checked periodically to see that
they are not clogged or seized due to dirt or other
foreign matter and that they will operate satisfactorily.
3. Installation conditions should be reviewed, seals should
be checked to verify that they are not broken and no
unauthorized adjustments have been made.
4. Valves may be manually operated by means of the lifting
lever only when the system pressure is at least 75% of
the nameplate set pressure. A Pressure Relief Valve
should never be lifted without 75% of the nameplate set
pressure.
5. Pressure Relief Valves should be re-tested as part a
normal routine inspection program. The intervals
between tests can vary in accordance with the severity
of the service condition. Guidelines for inspection are
provided in the API Inspection Code and the National
Board Inspection Code. However, consideration should
be given to your local jurisdictional policies, your
insurance company polices and/or your company
policies.

6. Only original, unmodified manufacturer parts should be


used to assure safe and proper operation.

D. TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Valves are set and sealed to prevent tampering,
guarantee is void if any seal is broken. The setting,
adjustment or repair should be done only by an
Authorized Pressure Relief Valve repair facility.
2. Occasionally a newly installed valve may leak as a result
of shipping and handling or installation procedures. For
valves with levers, apply pressure to the inlet side equal
to 75% of the operating pressure so that the lift lever can
be manually activated. For valves without lift levers, raise
the system pressure to the point of valve operation. In
most instances, the valve will properly reseat and the
leakage will stop.
3. If a valve is leaking under normal operating conditions,
the following three scenarios should be checked:
a. Make sure that a minimum operating to set point
differential is maintained according to the guidelines
specified in the Spence Sizing Guidelines.
b. It is possible that dirt or foreign material is lodged
under the seat. Perform the check as outlined in part 2
of the troubleshooting.
c. Valve seating surface could be worn or damaged.
Please contact your local Pressure Relief Valve Repair
Facility.
4. If a valve is chattering it may be the result of the
following:
a. Improper piping at valve inlet or outlet. See the
appropriate ASME Codes and the Spence Installation
Guidelines.
b. Valves are oversized. Review the Spence Sizing
Guidelines.
c. Back-pressure may be present which may not have
been accounted for in the original sizing. Review Sizing
Formulas.
d. Valve holes may be plugged. Check to make sure all
holes are not plugged and any shipping plugs have
been removed.
e. Valve may be worn or damaged. Please contact your
local Pressure Relief Valve Repair Facility.
5. If a valve is not popping at the set pressure as stamped
on the nameplate, the following should be checked:
a. All Pressure Relief Valves have tolerance built into the
set pressure. Review the Spence Engineering Testing
Specifications and/or the appropriate ASME codes to
ensure the valve is operating within the allowed
tolerances.
b. Make sure the gauge reading the pressure is properly
installed and calibrated. Compensate for the water leg
between the valve and gauge.
c. Review the inlet piping to make sure that the inlet
piping is at least the area of the Pressure Relief Valve

INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING


GUIDELINES - CONTD
inlet. Review the inlet piping to ensure no other
pressure drops can occur. See the Spence Installation
Guidelines.
d. Review the outlet piping to ensure that backpressure
has been accounted for in the original sizing and
selection of the valve. See the Spence Installation
Guidelines.
e. Valve may be worn or damaged. Please contact your
local Pressure Relief Valve Repair Facility.
6. If a valve is not closing or has an excessive blowdown,
the following should be checked:
a. It is possible that dirt or foreign material is lodged
under the seat. Perform the check as outlined in part 2
of this Section.
b. Operating pressure may not be reduced below the
reseating pressure of the valve. Reduce the operating
pressure of the system to 50% of the normal operating
pressure and then slowly bring the system back to the
normal operating pressure. Make sure that a minimum
operating to set point differential is maintained
according the guidelines specified in the Spence Sizing
Guidelines.
c. Valve may be worn or damaged. Please contact your
local Pressure Relief Valve Repair Facility.

DESUPERHEATERS
SPECIFICATIONS
The Desuperheater shall be air operated, consisting of atomizing
injector nozzle, dual controller, air pilot and strainers. It shall be
capable of handing wide load variations from full load to 5% of
maximum and control within 5F.
The injector nozzle shall be designed and installed to disperse the
minute water particles and atomizing steam counter to the flow
of superheated steam, enabling the fine mist to be easily
evaporated.
The dual controller shall be so constructed that it will maintain a
balanced, modulated flow of steam and water to the injector
nozzle at all times and shall be so arranged that the atomizing
steam shall lead the water on opening and trail on closing, so that
it is impossible for the water to reach the injector nozzle before
the steam.

RULES FOR SIZING DESUPERHEATERS


The required amount of cooling water to be injected into the
superheated steam is the basis on which a Desuperheater size
is determined. Since the heat gained by the injected cooling
water equals the heat lost by the superheated steam, the
required cooling water, G, in gallons per minute is calculated as
follows:
Ws
hs hd
G=
x
gpm
500
hd (t 32)
Where: Ws = Superheated steam flow, lb per hour
hs = Total heat of the superheated steam, Btu per lb
hd = Total heat of the desuperheated steam, Btu per lb
t = Temperature of the cooling water, F

The values hs and hd may be taken from the Steam Tables on


the inside back cover. Having determined the amount of cooling
water, G, choice of the size unit may be made directly from the
Selection table below.
Cooling water supply pressure must always be at least 75 psig
higher than the pressure of the steam being desuperheated.
With Steam Atomizing Desuperheaters, the atomizing steam
pressure must always be at least 50 psig higher than the pressure of the steam being desuperheated. Also, when there is
more than approximately 100 psig difference between cooling
water and atomizing steam pressures, a pressure reduction should
be made on the higher of the two.

FOR

ATOMIZATION

A source of higher pressure atomizing steam offers no problem


on most desuperheater installations. Generally, the steam being
desuperheated is at reduced pressure, having either been
throttled by a reducing valve or extracted from an intermediate
stage of a turbine.
When a pressure reduction is required in conjunction with
desuperheating the steam, it is recommended that the reduction
take place prior to desuperheating for the following reasons:
1. Auxiliary high pressure steam for atomization is
immediately available.

2. The Pressure Regulator is not subject to a damaging


accumulation of soluble salts precipitated by evaporation
from the cooling water.
3. Elimination of resuperheating when the pressure reduction
is after the point of superheat control.
If higher pressure steam is not available, a Mechanical Atomizing Desuperheater must be employed. The Injector Nozzle is
identical with the Steam Atomizing Nozzle except that it does
not have the advantage of secondary atomization into mist by
the action of the steam.

INTRODUCTION TO NOISE REDUCTION


WHY

IS

NOISE IMPORTANT?

Excessive noise is stressful to the human body and constitutes


a serious health hazard. The Walsh-Healy Public Contracts Act
and the Occupational Safety and Health Act have prompted
system designers to pay careful attention to the noise generated by pressure reducing stations.
OSHA has established limits on the length of time any employee
may be exposed to various sound levels. These limits are
shown in Figure 1 below. For a typical eight hour working day,
the limit is 90 dBA. OSHA does not provide sound level limits
for periods longer than eight hours. Figure 1 extrapolates the
OSHA limits to a full 24 hour day.

When daily exposure is composed of two or more at differing


sound levels, their combined effect must be considered. In
such cases, the sum of the ratios of actual to permissible
exposure times must not exceed unity. that is:
t1
t
t
+ 2 = = n
T1
T2
Tn

<1

Where:
T = permissible time at specified noise level
t = actual time at specified noise level
1, 2, , n = differing noise levels

* Values for 12 and 24 hour per day exposure are extrapolated.


NOTE: Ear protection must be worn above 90 dBA.

WHAT IS A DBA?
Sound results from pressure fluctuations in the air. The sound
pressure level which the most sensitive listener can detect is
about 20N/m2. This level is normally taken as the reference
point for the measurement of sound pressure levels.
Sound pressure level cover an enormous range of values. In
order to compress this range, sound levels are usually expressed
in decibels. A decibel (dB) is simply the logarithm of the ratio of
two quantities. In this case, the two quantities are the sound

pressure level being measured and the reference level. The


reference level is, by definition, 0 dB.
The human ear does not respond equally to all frequencies. It
tends to be insensitive to very low and very high frequencies.
Standard sound level meters are equipped with a scale which
approximates the human ears response. Sounds measured on
this scale are expressed as A-weighted decibels (dBA). The
dBA is commonly used in engineering work.

IMPORTANT CHARACTERISTICS OF DECIBELS


ADDING SOUND LEVELS
Since decibels express a logarithmic ratio, they cannot simply
be added or subtracted. Figure 2 below provides a means of
adding decibels without lengthy calculations.

To add two sound levels:


1. Determine difference between sound level
2. Find correction from Figure 2.
3. Add the correction to the higher sound level.

FIGURE 2

SOUND LEVEL REDUCTIONS


Similarly, a 10% reduction in the decibel level does not represent
a 10% reduction in absolute sound pressure level. For example,
a reduction from 60 dB to 54 dB (a 10% dB reduction) produces a 50% reduction in the absolute sound pressure level. A

6 dB reduction always cuts the absolute sound pressure in half.


The relationship between decibel and absolute sound pressure
level reductions is summarized in Figure 3.

SOUND LEVELS DECREASE

WITH

DISTANCE

Sound ratings for reducing valves are conventionally established


at a point three feet downstream from the valves outlet and three
feet from the outlet pipe's surface. At further distances from the
pipe surface, the radiated sound drops off in intensity. Some typical
values are shown below in Figure 4.

The values shown in Figure 4 assume that the valve is acoustically


isolated from the surrounding structure. Sound can be transmitted throughout the structure with little attenuation if the piping
system is not properly isolated or if surroundings are acoustically
hard. The piping system itself can also act as a conduit for sound.

NOISE REDUCTION DESIGN GUIDELINES


1. Size the regulator to provide a maximum inlet velocity of
about 10,000 FPM.
2. Determine the regulator outlet velocity. If it would exceed
30,000 FPM, use a Spence Muffling Orifice or a second
stage regulator.
3. Expand regulator outlet piping to limit discharge line velocity
to about 10,000 FPM.
4. Avoid abrupt changes in pipe size. Limit pipe diameter
changes to two pipe sizes per stage of expansion. Do not
use eccentric reducers.
5. Directional changes in downstream piping should be made
only after the line size has been increased. Use long radius
fittings; avoid bullhead tee connections.
6. Provide as much straight run of pipe on both sides of the
regulator as possible:
a. 10 pipe diameters minimum to the inlet.

b. 20 pipe diameters minimum of expanded line size from


the outlet.
7. Size all piping components, including strainer and stop valves
for a maximum flow velocity of about 10,000 FPM (Exception:
An outlet stop valve mounted at the regulator outlet should
be equal in size to the regulator.) In areas where low sound
levels are specified, reduce this limit by 25% to 50%.
8. To limit noise transmission through the buildings structure,
keep the regulator and piping at least 3 feet away from solid
surfaces. Use sound isolating piping supports.
9. Apply high density insulation to regulator body, piping and
system components. Insulation reduces heat loss significantly
and can provide moderate (3-6 dB) local noise attenuation.
For greater noise reduction, use removable Spence Insulcap
Jacket with lead lining on regulator body.
10. Use a Spence Noise Suppressor to reduce the propagation
of noise via the downstream piping.

SELECTING NOISE REDUCING DEVICES


SOURCE TREATMENT
A Spence Muffling Orifice will reduce high flow pressure
regulator noise by 6 to 10 dBA. Installed in the expanded down-

stream piping, the Muffling Orifice reduces the generation of


noise at its source.

MUFFLING
ORIFICE PLATE
FIGURE 5A: SINGLE STAGE INSTALLATION WITH MUFFLING ORIFICE

PATH TREATMENT
A Spence Noise Suppressor will reduce pipeline carried noise
by 10 to 20 dBA. Installed at the regulator outlet, the

Suppressor absorbs noise generated by the pressure regulator


and limits its propagation through the piping system.

NOISE SUPPRESSOR

SOURCE

AND

PATH TREATMENT

For maximum reduction of pipeline transmitted noise, the combined installation of a Spence Muffling Orifice and Spence Noise
Suppressor will reduce the sound pressure level by 15 to 30 dBA.

Installation of a Spence Insulcap Jacket with lead lining on the


regulator body will further reduce sound pressure levels.

AND

TYPE

OF

COMPONENTS

REGULATOR SIZE
1. Enter Saturated Steam Flow Table (opposite) at the specified
initial pressure. Read across the first tabulated value
which includes the specified steam flow. The regulator size
at the head of this column is the minimum required to limit
inlet velocity to 10,000 FPM.
2. Move up this column to the specified reduced pressure
(chosen outlet pressure, if Muffling Orifice is used) and note
the tabulated flow value. If the specified flow is more than
three times the tabulated flow, the regulators exit velocity
will exceed 30,000 FPM. (Use a Spence Muffling orifice or a
second stage reduction.)
DELIVERY PIPE SIZE
Enter Saturated Steam Flow Table (opposite) at the specified
reduced pressure. Read across to the first tabulated value
which includes the specified steam flow. The pipe size at the
head of this column is the minimum expanded pipe size to limit
velocity to 10,000 FPM.

EXAMPLE
SPECIFIED CONDITIONS
Saturated Steam Flow = 5,000 lb/hr
Initial Pressure = 100 PSIG
Reduced Pressure = 15 PSIG
REGULATOR SIZE
Entering Saturated Steam Flow Table (opposite) at 100 psig,
the first tabulated value which includes 5,000 lb/hr is 5190
lb/hr. The head of this column indicates a 21/2" regulator is
required to limit inlet velocity to 10,000 FPM.
Moving up this column to 15 psig, the tabulated flow is 1440
lb/hr. Specified flow is 3.47 times the tabulated flow. The exit
velocity for a 21/2" regulator will be 34,700 FPM. The use of a
Muffling Orifice is indicated.
DELIVERY PIPE SIZE
Entering Saturated Steam Flow Table (opposite) at 15 psig, the
first tabulated value which includes 5000 lb/hr is 6030 lb/hr.
The delivery pipe size at the head of this column is 5". For this
pipe size, flow velocity will be 8,290 FPM.

MUFFLING ORIFICE SIZE


If a Noise Suppressor is installed, the Muffling Orifice size is the
same as the regulator size. Otherwise, it is the same as the
delivery pipe size.
NOISE SUPPRESSOR SIZE
The inlet size of the Noise Suppressor is the same as the regulator size. The outlet size is the same as the delivery pipe size.
ANSWER: 21/2" SPENCE REGULATOR WITH MUFFLING ORIFICE,
NOISE SUPPRESSOR AND 5" DELIVERY PIPE.
NOTE: Regulators should always be protected by properly designed Strainers.

CALCULATING VELOCITY
VELOCITY FORMULA
The Saturated Steam Flow Tables (opposite) provide a convenient means of calculating flow velocity. The flows tabulated are
based on 10,000 feet per minute (FPM) velocity. The velocities
at other steam flows can be obtained by simple proportioning:
Actual Velocity =

Actual Flow
Tabulated Flow

x 10,000 FPM

NOISE REDUCTION COMPONENT FLOW COEFFICIENTS


1. Enter Cv Table below at the components (regulator or
orifice) inlet pressure. Read the tabulated value for W/Cv
at the components outlet pressure.

2. Divide the specified steam flow by the tabulated W/Cv to


obtain the regulator (CvR) or orifice (CvO) required flow coefficient.
Refer to Rated Steam Capacity Tables earlier in this Section
for rated capacities and minimum pressure drops for Spence
Regulators. The definition of component inlet and outlet
pressures is below.

Note that the lowest outlet pressure listed for each inlet
pressure corresponds to a critical pressure drop. An outlet
pressure lower than this will not provide any further increase
in flow.

Chosen regulator outlet/orifice inlet pressure. A rule of thumb is to chose this pressure so that regulator flow is barely subcritical.

SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL (SPL) CALCULATIONS


REGULATOR SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL

EXAMPLE

1. Enter Regulator Sound Pressure Level Chart L1 of SPLR at


top of following page at the specified initial pressure. Move
vertically to the specified reduced pressure (chosen outlet
pressure, if Muffling Orifice is used). Read L1 to the left of
this intersection.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS
Saturated Steam Flow = 5,000 lb/hr
Initial Pressure = 100 PSIG
Reduced Pressure = 15 PSIG
From the component sizing example on preceding pages, a
21/2" regulator with a 5" Muffling Orifice is required. Choose an
orifice inlet (regulator outlet) pressure of 55 PSIG (critical pressure
is 52 PSIG).

2. Enter Regulator Sound Pressure Level Chart L2 of SPLR at


bottom of following page at the required regulator flow
coefficient (CVR). Move vertically to the delivery pipe size.
Read L2 to the left of this intersection.
3. Regulator sound pressure level is:
SPLR = L1 + L2
NOTE: If SPLR exceeds specified limits, use a Muffling Orifice to
reduce the regulators pressure drop.

MUFFLING ORIFICE SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL


1. Enter Muffling Orifice Sound Pressure Level Chart L3 of
SPLO at top of following page at the chosen orifice inlet
(regulator outlet) pressure. Move vertically to the specified
reduced pressure. Read L3 to the left of this intersection.
2. Enter Muffling Orifice Sound Pressure Level Chart L4 of
SPLO at bottom of following page at the required orifice
flow coefficient (CVO). Move vertically to the orifice plate
size. Read L4 to the left of this intersection.
3. Regulator sound pressure level is:
SPLO = L3 + L4

Entering Flow for Cv=1 Table on facing page at 100 PSIG,


W/Cv = 191 at 55 PSIG outlet pressure. Thus CVR = (5,000
191) = 26.2.
Flow for Cv=1 Table does not provide a listing for 55 PSIG inlet
pressure. Using the critical pressures at both 60 PSIG and 50
PSIG, we estimate that W/Cv = (128 + 111) 2 = 120; thus
CVO = (5,000 120) = 41.7.
Entering L1 of SPLR Chart on following page at 100 PSIG, L1
= 41 at 55 PSIG outlet pressure. Entering L2 of SPLR Chart at
CVR = 26.2, L2 = 37 at 5" pipe size. Thus SPLR = L1 + L2 =
78 dBA.
Entering L3 of SPLO Chart on following page at 55 PSIG, L3 =
52 at 15 PSIG reduced pressure. Entering L4 of SPLO Chart at
CVO = 41.7, L4 = 16 at 5" plate size. Thus SPLO = L3 + L4 =
68 dBA.
SPLR SPLO = 10 dBA. From the dB Correction Table below,
the decibel correction is 0.4 dB. Thus the combined SPL =
SPLR + 0.4 = 78.4 dBA.

COMBINED SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL


Combine SPLO and SPLR as follows:
1. Determine difference between SPLO and SPLR.
2. Find correction from dB Correction Table at right.
3. Add the correction to the higher SPL.

SIZING INFO

OPERATION
The vent valve is open, the pressure supply valve is
closed and the float is positioned in the lower part
of the tank as the condensate or other liquid enters
the tank through the inlet check valve. As the tank
fills with liquid, the float rises to the point where the
spring mechanism snaps past the center position.
The compressed spring instantly closes the vent
valve and opens the pressure supply. This allows

pressure into the tank which forces the liquid through the
outlet check valve.
As the liquid level falls, the float lowers to the point where
the spring mechanism snaps past the center position
which immediately closes the pressure supply valve and
opens the vent valve. The pressure in the tank decreases,
allowing liquid to flow through the inlet check valve,
repeating the cycle.

CONDENSATE COMMANDER PUMP PRIMER


The SPENCE Condensate Commander
belongs to a class of pressure operated
pumps primarily intended to move condensate or other fluids without the use
of electricity. When compared to conventional electrical pumps, the Condensate Commander is particularly suited
to pumping "difficult" media such as
high temperature condensate and corrosive fluids. Pressure operated pumps
and the Condensate Commander in
particular enjoy a reputation of long life
with very little required maintenance.
Generally these types of pumps, by
eliminating rotating seals, electrical
motors, and impellers, last five to ten
times as long as conventional electrical
pumps while eliminating most of the
standard maintenance.
Returns hot condensate conserving boiler feed water chemicals
and reducing fuel cost associated
with reheating boiler feed water.
Pumps without requiring electrical
service.
Pump design provides safe operation for hazardous or explosive
environments.
Operates on steam, compressed
air or gas from 5 psig to 250 psig
depending on model.
Capacities to 48,000 lbs./hr.
OPERATION
The Condensate Commander pumps by
displacing fluid with steam or compressed gas. The float is connected to a
linkage and spring that simultaneously
actuates a motive valve and an exhaust
valve. During the fill cycle the motive

valve closes while the exhaust valve


opens, allowing condensate to fill the
pump housing. When the float, rising
with the entering fluid level, reaches
the top of its stroke, the mechanism
releases the spring, opening the motive
and closing the exhaust valves. Steam
or compressed gas then flows into the
pump displacing the fluid. Check valves
positioned at the inlet and outlet of the
pump direct the fluid in the direction of
the flow.
CHARACTERISTICS
Flow capacity is dependent on several
parameters. Bearing in mind that that
the Condensate Commander pumps in
discreet, relatively consistent slugs of
fluid, the total capacity will depend on
how quickly the Commander cycles.
Motive pressure available and resistance in the flow line are the obvious
causative and limiting factors of capacity. Less obvious is the Cv of the
check valves, pressure or head of the
incoming fluid, resistance in the vent
line, and characteristics of the motive
gas used.
There is no "vacuum" side of a Commander pump. While there certainly is
an inlet side, it is important to understand that the class of pumps the Condensate Commander belongs to does
not draw or suck fluid into it. The media
must flow by gravity into the pump.
The greater the pressure and/or head,
the greater the Cv of the inlet check,
and to a lesser extent the greater the
Cv of the exhaust vent, the faster the
fill portion of the cycle will complete.
With the fill portion completed the

Commander mechanism will shut off


the exhaust vent and open the motive
valve. Steam or compressed gas will
now displace the fluid contained in the
pump housing. Factors controlling the
speed of the discharge portion of the
cycle include pressure of motive steam
or gas, outlet check Cv, downstream
backpressure, and potentially temperature of flow media and/or ambient
conditions if steam is utilized as the
motive gas. This last component is often
overlooked, but the fact that steam will
condense and reduce actual motive
pressure could become significant in
some applications.
RECEIVER
Conventional electric condensate
pumps typically require a receiver sized
to allow condensate to cool and vent
flash steam. This is necessary, as the
suction side of the pump will lower
pressure potentially allowing the hot
condensate to boil as it is drawn past
the impeller. This action, known as
cavitation, will quickly erode the impeller. While the temperature of the flow
media is generally not a concern it
must be remembered that the Condensate Commander pumps in discrete
cycles. While the Commander is expelling fluid the body is pressurized and
cannot receive fluid. If fluid is draining
to the Commander in a continuous
fashion, a receiver sized to accommodate the maximum volume expected
during the time required to discharge
the commander must be utilized.
Failure to do so will back condensate
up and possibly increase pressure,
potentially causing problems.

SELECTION GUIDELINES
To correctly select a Condensate Commander
Pump that meets the requirements of the
application, some specific data is needed.
1.Condensate load in lbs/hr. *
2.Motive pressure available (air or steam).
3.Total lift in feet (hydraulic head).
4.Pressure in return piping.
5.Filling head available in inches
(recommended minimum of 12 inches).
EXAMPLE 1, Steam motive:
1.Condensate Load:
4,000 lb/hr.
2.Steam pressure available: 50 psig
3.Total vertical lift:
20 ft.
4.Pressure in return piping: 10 psig
5.Filling head available:
12 inches
For filling head other than 12 inches,
multiply capacity by correction factor
found in Table 3.
SOLUTION:
1.Calculate total back pressure. Back pressure
is the total head in feet multiplied by 0.433
plus the pressure in the return piping.
(20 ft. x .433) + 10 psig = 19
2.Select from the Pump Capacity Table a
pump with 50 psig motive pressure and
greater than 19 (25) psig total back
pressure: a 1 x 1 Condensate Pump.
EXAMPLE 2, Air motive:
(conditions same as Example 1)
1.To determine correction factor for air, divide
total back pressure from Example 1 by
motive pressure available (BPMP).
19 50 = 38%
Correction factor from Table 2 is 1.10
2.Divide required condensate load by
correction factor.
4000 1.10 = 3636
Select from the Pump Capacity Table
(Table 1) a 1" x 1" Condensate Pump.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION OF A CONDENSATE


COMMANDER PUMP WITH A VENTED RECEIVER
Condensate is being pumped from a vented receiver to an overhead elevated condensate return line that may
contain pressure. For safety, the pump exhaust and receiver should be vented to atmosphere if steam is used
for the motive pressure.

To efficiently drain condensate from an open system, the vented receiver should be horizontally located a
minimum of twelve inches above the pump. To allow for sufficient volume of condensate and flash vapor,
the receiver must be sized adequately to permit the complete separation of flash vapor from condensate.
The receiver may be either an ASME coded tank or a length of large diameter pipe.
Sizing Example: Condensate Load = 10,000 lb/hr. Traps are draining a Heat Exchanger
running at 100 psig and the receiver is vented to atmosphere. Table 5 shows 13.3% of
the condensate flashes to steam, so total flash steam = 10,000 x .133 = 1,333 lb/hr flash
steam. Table 4 indicates a vent size of 6" and a receiver size of 16" Dia. x 36" long.

To efficiently drain condensate in a closed system, the receiver should be horizontally located a minimum of
twelve inches above the pump to allow for sufficient condensate collection. The receiver must be sized to
provide the minimum condensate capacity required to prevent equipment flooding. The receiver may be
either an ASME coded tank or a length of large diameter pipe. A safety relief valve may be required. Consult
factory for capacity when a steam trap is utilized after the pump.

Condensate Commander Pumps can pump liquids from low lying areas such as manholes, steam pits or any
area that may collect liquid or flood. The non-electric feature makes it a good choice if compressed air or any
other gas is readily available for use as the driving force. Steam is not recommended as a motive vapor
because a submerged pump may quickly condense the motive steam, potentially reducing performance.

SIZING INFO

Canadian Registration # OE0591.9C

OPERATION
On startup, the thermostatic air vent (caged stainless
welded bellows) is open, allowing air to flow freely
through the vent valve orifice. When condensate flows
into the trap, the float rises, allowing condensate to
be discharged. Once air and non-condensibles have
been evacuated, hot condensate will cause the thermostatic vent to close. Condensate will continue to be
discharged as long as condensation occurs.

During normal operation, an increase in the load causes


the liquid level in the trap to rise. The float then rises and
rolls off the seat ring, allowing more condensate to flow
out. The float sinks as the condensate load decreases,
moving nearer to the seat ring, decreasing the effective
size of the orifice and allowing less condensate to discharge. This provides smooth, continuous operation that
reacts instantly to load variation while maintaining a
water seal over the seat ring to prevent live steam loss.

SIZING INFO

OPERATION
Air entering trap is immediately discharged through
the high capacity integral air vent. The thermostatic
vent will close just prior to saturation temperature.
The balanced design will allow venting of non-condensibles that collect in the float chamber when operating
at design pressure. When steam enters the trap, the
thermostatic air vent closes to prevent steam loss.

When steam gives up its latent heat, it becomes condensate. This condensate enters the trap and causes the
stainless steel ball float to rise. Raising of the float opens
the discharge valve, allowing condensate to be continuously discharged as it enters the trap. The condensate level
in the trap body is maintained above the discharge seat,
providing a positive seal against the loss of steam.

OPERATION
During startup, air and non-condensible gases
enter the trap and are automatically vented through
an accurate balanced pressure internal thermostatic air vent. As condensate enters the trap, the float
and lever mechanism is raised, lifting the valve off

the seat, discharging the condensate. Condensate will


continue to be discharged at the same rate at which it is
entering. Any air or non-condensible gas that may
accumulate will be continually and efficiently passed by
the thermostatic air vent.

OPERATION

Trap Closed After trap is installed


and primed, steam entering the
trap collects in the top of the
bucket, floating the bucket and
forcing the valve into its seat.

Trap Begins to Open As


condensate begins to flow into the
trap, steam and air are forced from
the bucket. This causes the bucket
to begin losing buoyancy, tending
to pull the valve from its seat.

Trap Discharges When enough


condensate has entered the trap,
displacing the steam and air, the
bucket drops, pulling the valve
from the seat and allowing
condensate and air to discharge.

Trap Closes As the flow of


condensate stops, steam enters
the trap and refloats the bucket,
forcing the valve into its seat. The
cycle then repeats as more
condensate reaches the trap.

SIZING INFO

OPERATION
Incoming air and condensate flow through the trap
body and into the control chamber. Line pressure
raises the disc off the seat allowing complete discharge. When flashing condensate enters the cartridge, flow velocity increases, creating low pressure
underneath the disc. Flashing condensate at high
velocity strikes the inside wall of the disc chamber
and is deflected to the top of the disc causing a

pressure buildup. The disc is forced down onto the seat by


this pressure imbalance. The trap remains closed as
flashed vapor in the control chamber keeps the disc seated.
Pressure inside the cap is not lowered until the trapped
flash vapor condenses due to body radiation. Condensing
steam lowers the pressure above the disc. Disc is then
lifted and the cycle repeated.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Thermal actuator is filled at its free length with
a liquid having a lower boiling point than water.
On start-up, valve is normally open. When
steam enters trap, thermal actuator fill
vaporizes to a pressure higher than line
pressure. This forces valve into seat orifice to
prevent any further flow. As condensate
collects, it takes heat from thermal actuator,

lowering internal pressure. Line pressure will then compress


thermal actuator to open valve and discharge condensate.
Valve opening automatically adjusts to load conditions from
minimum on very light loads to full lift at maximum load.
Restricted orifice in UMT451T (small opening at bottom of
valve seat) prevents trap from discharging continuously on
light loads such as are encountered on tracer lines.

SELECTION EXAMPLE
1.00

For optimum service life, the filter should have a 1 psi maximum pressure drop. Select a 5 micron filter for a flow rate
of 110 lbs/hr (w) of saturated steam at 45 psi.
w
Where: Cs =
CmCp
Designing for .75 PSI differential pressure, Cm is 225 from
the capacity chart and Cp is 2.0.
Therefore: Cs = 110

SIZING INFO

Installation Tip: Always install a Y Strainer between


the Steam Separator and Trap

OPERATION
When the vapor enters the steam separator, a series
of baffles change its flow direction several times.
During this process, the baffles in the housing collect
impinged water droplets that are carried in the system.
Gravity allows the accumulated water droplets and

other foreign particles to fall to the drain and exit the


system through a steam trap. The remaining steam in
the system is clean and dry, allowing improved and
maintained performance.

ELIMINATOR
SERIES STEAM
SEPARATOR
SPECIFICATION
Steam Separator shall have an internal baffle that does not
exceed an equivalent length of pipe. The Steam Separator
shall be installed in a horizontal pipe configuration with the
drain directly below the line. The Steam Separator shall
have an NPT bottom drain on which a mechanical
constant flow steam trap shall be installed.

Canadian Registration # OE0591.9C

OPERATION
A simple disc is used with no linkage or close fitting
parts to eliminate problems found in ordinary small
float or piston-operated devices used in drip legs on
air lines. Disc will lift off seat on a periodic time
cycle, allowing moisture to be discharged and
atomized through the muffler. Positive action of the
disc assures reliable condensate removal with

minimum loss of air and rapid shutoff on no load condition.


Intermittent discharges atomize condensate to avoid messy
accumulations produced by other devices. Highly effective,
specially designed muffler eliminates noise and diffuses
moisture so that discharge drain piping is usually unnecessary. Freeze proof when mounted in vertical position with
outlet facing down and muffler removed.

TAVHigh capacity w/welded SS actuator

Canadian Registration # OE0591.9C

OPERATION
Thermal actuator is filled at its free length with a
liquid having a lower boiling point than water. As
assembled, valve is normally open. On startup, air
passes through vent.As air is eliminated, hot steam
reaches vent and the thermal actuator fill vaporizes
to a pressure higher than line pressure. This forces

valve into seat orifice to prevent any further flow. Should


more air collect, it takes heat from the actuator, lowering
internal pressure. Line pressure will then compress thermal
actuator to open valve and discharge air. Valve lift automatically adjusts to variations.

WHY DO WE NEED STEAM TRAPS?

WHAT IS A STEAM TRAP?

In order to operate economically and


efficiently, all steam systems must be
protected against 3 factors:

A steam trap is basically an automatic


valve which discharges condensate,
undesirable air and non-condensibles
from a system while trapping, or holding
in, steam. They fall into 4 major categories; Thermostatic, Mechanical,
Thermodynamic and Drain Orifice.
Each type will be discussed in detail in
this section.

* CONDENSATE
* AIR
* NON-CONDENSIBLES
Condensate is formed in a system
whenever steam gives up its useable
heat. And, since condensate interferes
with the efficiency of the operation of a
steam system, it must be removed.
Air, one of natures finest insulators,
when mixed with steam, will lower its
temperature and hinder the the overall
effectiveness of an entire system. For
example: A film of air 1/1000th of an
inch thick offers as much resistance to
heat transfer as 13" of copper or 3 of
steel. For that reason, air MUST be
continuously bled from a system by
steam traps to have it operate
efficiently and to conserve energy.
Non-condensibles, such as carbon
dioxide promote corrosion and other
deterioration of equipment and inhibit
their function.

In every steam system, there are four


phases of operation in which traps play
a vital role:
1) Start-up During start-up, when the
system is initially activated, air and
non-condensibles must be discharged.
2) Heat-up During heat-up, as the
system works to achieve the desired
temperature and pressure, condensate
is discharged.
3) At Temperature At temperature,
when the desired levels are reached,
the valve must close to retain the
steam.
4) Using Heat At the using heat
level, the valve's job is to stay closed
unless and until condensate occurs;
then the valve must open, discharge
the condensate and close quickly and
positively, without allowing valuable
steam to escape.

WHAT ARE THE QUALITIES OF A


GOOD STEAM TRAP?
A good steam trap should:
Discharge condensate, air and
non-condensibles.
Be equal to the load over a wide
range of pressures and
temperatures.
Be freeze-proof where
necessary.
Be simple and rugged.
Have few moving parts.
Require low maintenance and
spare parts inventory.
Have a long life.
A good steam trap should not:
Discharge live steam.
Fail or malfunction if pressure
changes.
Respond slowly or hesitantly.
Open too often, too briefly or for
too long.
Require constant adjustment or
frequent repair.
Require a wide variety of
models, spare parts or orifice
sizes for different pressures.

THERMOSTATIC STEAM TRAPS


Thermostatic steam traps, as their name
implies, operate in direct response to
the temperature within the trap. There
are two primary types: BELLOWS and
BIMETALLIC.
BELLOWS TRAPS
Of all actuating devices, the bellows trap
most nearly approaches ideal operation
and efficiency and is most economical.
It is positive in both directions, is fast
acting and does not require adjustment.
Bellows traps employ only one moving
part - a liquid filled metal bellows which responds quickly and precisely to
the presence or absence of steam.

FIGURE 14
Next, condensate is discharged (Figure
14). Then heat from arriving steam will
cause the liquid in the bellows to vaporize and close the valve (Figure 15).
At temperature, the valve will remain
closed indefinitely opening only when
condensate, air or other non-condensibles cause it to retract and open.
When live steam re-enters the trap
housing, the bellows extends immediately, trapping the steam (Figure 15).

BIMETALLIC TRAPS
Bimetallic traps work like the differential
metal strip in a thermostat, using the
unequal expansion of two different
metals to produce movement which
opens and closes a valve.
Figure 16: When the cooler condensate contacts the bimetallic discs, the
discs relax. Inlet pressure forces the valve
away from its seat and permits flow.

FIGURE 16

FIGURE 13
During startup and warmup, a vacuum
in the bellows keeps it retracted, with
the valve lifted well clear of the seat
permitting air and non-condensibles to
be freely discharged (Figure 13).

FIGURE 15
The bellows, unlike a disc trap, is a
temperature sensitive rather than a time
cycle device. There is no way that air
can be mistaken for steam and cause
binding, since bellows react to
temperature only. And unlike bucket
traps, bellows traps do not require a
variety of sizes for valves and seats for
various pressures.

FIGURE 17

Figure 17: When steam enters the trap


and heats the bimetallic discs, the
discs expand forcing the valve against
its seat preventing flow.
Bimetallic traps are simple and positive
in both directions. However, they have
a built-in delay factor which makes
them inherently sluggish. Moreover;
they do not maintain their original
settings because the elements tend to
take a permanent set after use, which
requires repeated adjustment to
maintain efficiency.

MECHANICAL STEAM TRAPS


There are two basic types of mechanical steam traps:
1) FLOAT & THERMOSTATIC
2) INVERTED BUCKET
Inverted bucket traps, as their name
suggests, operate like an upside down
bucket in water.
Figure 1: During startup, the trap is
filled with water, with the bucket (A) at

FIGURE 1
the bottom and the valve (B) fully open
to allow condensate to flow out freely.

FIGURE 2
Figure 2: Air trapped in the bucket
escapes through a vent hole (C). On

MECHANICAL STEAM TRAPS CONTD.


some buckets, an additional vent hole is
controlled by a bimetallic strip which is
kept closed by the steam. Therefore, the
vent only operates during startup. This
limits bucket trap air handling capacity.
Figure 3: At temperature, steam enters

Because bucket traps rely on a fixed


force, the weight of the bucket, discharge
orifices must be sized by pressure. For
example, a trap sized to operate at 50
PSIG will not open at 150 PSIG.
Float traps are manufactured in a
variety of sizes, shapes and configurations. The most commonly used (for
steam service) is the float and thermostatic, or F & T. F & T traps combine
the excellent air venting capabilities of
a thermostatic trap with the liquid level
controlling capabilities of a float trap.

FIGURE 7

FIGURE 3

under the bucket and causes it to float


up and close the valve (B). During heat
use, any condensate entering the line is
forced up into the bucket. The bucket
looses buoyancy and drops down,
reopening the valve and discharging the
condensate. (see Figure 1)
Bucket traps are rugged and reliable,
however, air building up in the bucket
can bind them closed causing condensate to back up in the line. Also, they
can waste steam if they lose their prime

FIGURE 4

(see Figure 4). Bucket traps require


priming water in the trap which makes
them vulnerable to freeze up unless
expensive insulation is added.

FIGURE 5
Figure 5: During startup, before condensate reaches the trap, the thermostatic
element is fully open to discharge air. The
float rests on the lower seat.

FIGURE 6
Figure 6: As hot condensate and steam
reach the trap, the thermostatic element
expands, closing the air vent. Condensate lifts the float, allowing condensate
to flow out of the trap.

Figure 7: As the condensing rate


decreases, the float lowers, reducing
flow through the trap. The buoyancy of
the float will maintain a liquid level seal
above the lower seat ring, preventing
the escape of steam. As with inverted
bucket traps, float and thermostatic
traps rely on a fixed force (the buoyancy of the float). Discharge orifices
must be sized by differential pressure.
Placing a low pressure float and thermostatic trap in high pressure service will
result in the trap locking up. A
contrasting characteristic of both the
float and thermostatic and inverted
bucket is the discharge cycle. A float &
thermostatic trap tends to continuously
discharge condensate while the
inverted bucket trap discharges
condensate in cycles.

THERMODYNAMIC STEAM TRAPS


Essentially, a thermodynamic steam trap
is a time cycle device which responds
to imbalances of pressure applied to a
valving device, usually a disc.

blown past the disc into the upper


chamber, forcing the disc downward.

This type of trap is also subject to water


binding. If water pressure is trapped
above disc, trap will fail closed.

FIGURE 11

FIGURE 9
Figure 9: Pressure caused by air or
condensate lifts the disc permitting
flow through the trap.

FIGURE 10
Figure 10: When steam arrives at the
inlet port, blowby at a high velocity
creates low pressure under the disc.
Some of the flashing condensate is

Figure 11: Further flow is stopped


when sufficient pressure is trapped in
the chamber above the disc. During
operation, a decrease in chamber
pressure permits inlet pressure to lift
the disc and open the trap (Figure 9).

FIGURE 12
Figure 12: Trap is easily affected by
dirt and/or other foreign matter which
will cause trap to fail open.

The decrease in the chamber pressure


should only be caused by the presence
of cooler condensate. Due to the
design of most thermodynamic traps,
especially in cold or wet conditions, the
chamber may be prematurely cooled
causing improper or frequent cycling as
well as steam loss and increased wear.
Advanced TD designs have a steam
jacket which surrounds the chamber
and prevents ambient conditions
affecting the operation of the disc.

ORIFICE STEAM TRAPS


60 Mesh Dome Strainer
Orifice type traps are engineered conand Gasket Assembly
tinuous flow devices. Orifice traps discharge air, condensate and all other
Gasket
non-condensible gases with minimal
live steam loss.
The fixed orifice size is calculated, for
a given application, to discharge the
condensate load at maximum thermal
efficiency. Approximately 10 to 25 percent of discharging hot condensate
flashes to steam at the downstream
side of the orifice, at a constant pressure drop. This flashing effect further
restricts the flow of saturated steam. In
actual conditions, a minimum percenOrifice Plate

volume of steam is relatively large


compared to that of the condensate.
The velocity through the orifice is
highly turbulent. The initial calculated
steam loss can be expected to remain
relatively constant over the expected
trap life of 10 plus years.
The major factor for energy efficient
performance is based on initial orifice
sizing for the application. Properly sized,
thermal efficiencies of 98 percent plus
can be attained.
While Orifice Traps can be applied at
all pressures, they are ideally suited for
use on saturated or superheated steam
250 PSIG or greater.

SIZING STEAM TRAPS


HOW TO DETERMINE THE PROPER
SIZE TRAP
Capacity tables that follow show
maximum discharge rates in pounds
per hour. To select the correct size trap
from these tables, the normal condensing rate should be converted to a
pounds per hour basis and multiplied
by a safety factor.
REASON FOR SAFETY FACTORS
For steam applications, the condensation rate varies with:
(1) The starting or warming-up
condition.
(2) The normal operating condition.
(3) Any abnormal operating condition.
Of these, the condensing rate for the
normal condition is occasionally known,
or it can be estimated with sufficient
accuracy for trap selection; the loads
imposed by warm-up and abnormal
conditions are seldom known and
practically impossible to predict.
During warm-up the trap load is heavy,
since air as well as large quantities of
condensate must be discharged. Condensate forms at a rapid rate as the cold
equipment and connecting piping are
brought up to temperature. This usually
results in pressure drop at the trap inlet,
thereby reducing its capacity during the
period when the load is maximum.
Safety factors are therefore necessary,
to compensate for start-up conditions,
variation of steam pressure and product
initial temperature, the process cycle
speed required, and discrepancies
between assumed and actual conditions which determine the normal
condensing rate.
The selection of a safety factor
depends on the type of trap and the
operating conditions. If the known or
calculated normal condensing rate is
multiplied by the recommended factor
from the pages which follow, efficient
trapping will be assured.
EFFECT OF BACK PRESSURE ON
TRAP CAPACITY
Most trap installations include piping
the outlet into a common return system
or to an available disposal location. In
either case a constant static back pres-

sure may exist, against which the trap


must discharge. This back pressure
may be unintentional or deliberately
produced.
Unintentional back pressure in condensate return piping is caused by lifting
the condensate to a higher level, piping
which is too small for the volume of
liquid conveyed, piping with insufficient
or no pitch in the direction of flow, pipe
and fittings clogged with rust, pipe scale
or other debris, leaking steam traps,
etc. In steam service an intentional
back pressure is instigated by means
of a pressure regulating or springloaded valve in the discharge system,
when a supply of flash steam at a
pressure less than the trap pressure is
needed.
If very hot condensate is discharged to
a pressure less than that existing in the
trap body, some of it will flash into steam,
with a tremendous increase in volume
and consequent choking and build-up
of pressure in the trap's discharge orifice
and the passages and piping adjacent
thereto. For condensate at or close to
steam temperature, this flash pressure
is quite high, usually considerably
higher than any static back pressure
existing in the trap outlet piping.
For this reason, capacity tables for
thermostatic and thermodynamic traps
are based on gage pressure at the
trap inlet, instead of on the difference
between trap inlet and discharge pressures. Experiments have shown that,
for the temperatures applying to these
tables, unless the static back pressure
in the return piping exceeds 25% of the
trap inlet pressure, no reduction of the
trap capacity results. For back pressures greater than 25% of the trap inlet
pressure there is a progressive decrease
of trap capacity.
Thus, if the return piping static pressure
is less than 25% of the trap inlet pressure, the capacities shown in these
tables should be utilized for trap selection. If the return piping pressure is
greater than 25% of the trap inlet
pressure, reduce the table capacities
by the percentage indicated in second
line of Table A on the following pages.

Above data does not apply to float and


thermostatic traps, capacities are based
on differential pressure, obtained by
subtracting any static back pressure
from trap inlet pressure.
WHEN THE NORMAL CONDENSING
RATE IS KNOWN
Normal condensing rate means the
pounds of steam condensed per hour
by the average conditions which prevail
when the equipment drained is at
operating temperature.
If this amount is known, simply multiply
by the safety factor recommended for
the service and conditions, obtained
from the pages which follow, and determine size directly from the capacity
tables for the type of trap selected.
WHEN THE NORMAL CONDENSING
RATE IS UNKNOWN
Determine by utilizing proper formula
for the service and equipment to be
trapped. Multiply the result by safety
factor recommended for the operating
conditions. See examples on the
following pages.

SIZING CONDENSATE RETURN LINES


SIZING CONDENSATE RETURN
LINES

based upon the upstream and downstream pressures (this percentage can
be seen in Table 5 in the Condensate
Commander section).

When condensate passes through a


steam trap orifice, it drops from the upstream pressure in the heat exchanger
to the downstream pressure in the condensate return line. The energy in the
upstream condensate is greater than the
energy in the downstream condensate.
As the condensate passes through the
steam trap, the additional energy from
the upstream condensate forms a percentage of flash steam that changes

sure in the return line that often leads


to poor steam trap performance.
We will size the condensate return line
based upon flash steam velocities, The
percentage of flash steam versus condensate (water) is usually on the order
of 20 to 1, so the effect of the water in
the system sizing is usually small.
Choosing a velocity of flash steam is
often subjective and different manufacturers will suggest different values. The
nomograph below sizes return lines
based upon 50 feet/second.

When sizing condensate return lines


after the steam trap, it is important to
take into account the amount of flash
steam created when hot, saturated condensate undergoes a pressure drop.
The flash steam has very large volume
and can cause very high velocities if the
return line is not sized properly. These
high velocities can create high backpres-

EXAMPLE:
Inlet Trap Pressure = 100 psig
Outlet Pressure (return) = 0 psig (atmospheric)
Actual condensate flow rate = 5,000 lb/hr.
Start at the Upstream Pressure line at 100 psig. Make a
straight line through the End (Downstream) Pressure of 0
psig and stop at the pivot line. From that point, make a
straight line through the Condensate Flow Rate of 5,000
and stop at the Nominal Pipe size line. It intersects
slightly higher than 4. You may select the 4 line size
without concern for undersizing the line because a low
velocity of 50 ft/sec was used.
Note: If design requirements dictate using a velocity other
than the 50 ft/sec value in the Nomograph, a ratio can be
made of the pipe size because the velocity is proportional
to the Pipe Diameter squared. For example, if you require
a Pipe Diameter for 80 ft/sec, use the following equation:

STEAM TRACING DESIGN GUIDELINES


V.1.1 INTRODUCTION
Steam tracing is one of many ways to
preheat, add heat and prevent heat
loss from piping systems and their
components. Some other ways are:
Jacketed piping
Hot water and oil tracing
Dowtherm tracing
Jacketed piping systems are used primarily to maintain a constant high temperature. Due to its high cost of construction, jacketed systems are seldom
used except where temperature control
is critical. Hot water and oil must be
pumped at a high velocity to maintain
a desired temperature, and must have
a separate return header as does Dowtherm. Hot water, oil or dowtherm are
also an additional system which add to
the cost of a plant.
Steam tracing is most often selected
because:
There is generally available a surplus
of low and/or medium pressure
steam.
Steam has a high latent heat and
heat-transfer-coefficient.
Steam condenses at a constant
temperature.
Steam flows to end-point without
the aid of pumps (when designed
correctly).

Maintaining A Desired Temperature


The viscosity of some liquids
becomes higher as their temperatures become lower causing more
difficult and costly pumping and
leading to down-time for cleaning.
Condensation may occur in some
gases if the ambient temperature
falls below the dewpoint which is
harmful and expensive in such
systems as:
-Natural Gas where control valves
freeze up and burners malfunction.
-Compressor Suction Lines where
compressors can be damaged.
V.1.3 MATERIAL
Steam tracing material is normally as
follows:
-Use the material specified for steam
piping from the steam header (through
the distribution manifold, if applicable)
to and including the tracer block valve.
-Use 1/4 through 7/8 O.D. copper or
stainless steel tubing (depending on the
design conditions) from the block valve
to the steam trap. Though sizes may
vary with different applications, 3/8
and 1/2 O.D. are the most often used.
Tube fittings and adapters are normally
flareless compression type or 37
degree flared type.

A small amount of return piping is


needed due to existing condensate
headers.

-Use the material specified for


condensate piping from the steam trap
(through the collection manifold, if
applicable) to the condensate header
or end-point (drain or grade).

V.1.2 USES

V.1.4 DESIGN GUIDELINES

Freeze Protection (winterizing)


Adding sufficient heat to abovegrade piping systems and equipment which are exposed to ambient
temperatures below the freezing
point of their media prevents freezing.

1. Steam piping should be run within


12 of the line or equipment being
traced to minimize exposed tubing.
2. Spiral tracing should be limited to
vertical piping using multiple
tracers on horizontal lines which
require more heat.

3. Tracers should be designed so that


the flow is always down. Avoid
pockets! ! Where vertical flow is
unavoidable, steam pressure
should be a minimum of 25 PSIG
for every 10 of rise.
4. Tracers should be a maximum of
100' long and continuous from the
supply to the collection manifold or
endpoint. For lines over 100 long,
provide another tracer and overlap
the two 3 inches to avoid cold
spots.
5. Tracers should have no branch tees
except as indicated in Section V.3.
6. Provide each tracer with a separate
strainer and steam trap.
7. Manifolds can be horizontal or vertical depending upon the design
conditions.
8. Tracers should be attached to the
pipe at 8 to 10 maximum intervals
with stainless steel wire. Wire
tension should be sufficient to hold
the tracer secure and flush against
the pipe.
9. Some piping materials, such as lined
pipe, might require spacer blocks
to avoid hot spots.
10. Tracer loops with unions are
necessary:
when joining tubing lengths.
at all break flanges and unions.
at all flanged valves.
11. Tracer discharge lines should be as
short as possible since long discharge lines can freeze even with a
fully functioning steam trap.

CLEAN STEAM DESIGN GUIDELINES


Clean Steam is a general term used to
describe a range of steam pureness. It
may be generated by such methods as:
Filtration of plant steam typically
requiring the removal of particles
larger than 5 microns
An independent steam generator.
E.g. Stainless steel reboiler fed with
distilled water.
One stage of a multi-effect still within
the overall water purification system.
Uses for Clean Steam vary by industry,
however typical applications include:
In-line sterilization of storage tanks
and equipment
Powering sterilizers and autoclaves
Cleaning and sterilizing process
piping systems without
disassembling the piping system commonly known as CIP (Clean in
Place)
Pasteurization utilizing Ultra High
Temperature Processing (UHT)
The highest quality clean steam however, is typically used by the Pharmaceutical and Biotechnical industries.
This steam, occasionally referred to as
Pure Steam, is most often supplied
by an independent steam generator
utilizing Water for Injection (WFI) as
feed water. WFI is typically produced
by a Reverse Osmosis (RO) generator

and then distilled thus removing any


traces of organics, bacteria, and pyrogens. Pure steam is required for the
sterilization of cell culture processing
equipment such as incubators where
contaminants could adversely affect
cell growth. Other uses include pharmaceutical manufacture and direct steam
injection pasteurization where contaminants could collect in products intended
for human consumption.

304L, 316 and 316L stainless steel and


higher alloys such as Inconel. While
these materials have proven
themselves in practice, it should be
noted that there are currently no U.S.
governmental standards specifying
materials for clean steam service.
Regulatory agencies concern themselves with the purity and quality of the
product, leaving the design standards
entirely up to the manufacturer.

Clean steam produced from high purity


make up water is highly corrosive due
to the minimal ion content. High purity
water, pure steam and the resultant
condensate will aggressively attempt to
absorb or leach ions from their environment to achieve a more natural balance.
Additionally, chemicals used to passivate steam and condensate in conventional systems are generally prohibited
from clean steam system as such
chemicals could contaminate or alter
sensitive end products. Should corrosion
begin, the oxidation byproducts may
travel through the steam system catalyzing corrosion throughout in a process
known as rouging.

In addition to the use of corrosion


resistant materials in sanitary systems,
features designed to inhibit bacterial
growth are often required. Piping, valves
and fittings should be free draining and
maintain industry standard surface
finishes. Free draining valves and
fittings are designed not to retain or
Puddle condensate when installed
correctly. After shut down of the steam
system, any puddled condensate could
potentially promote bacterial growth.
Inadequate surface finishes reduce the
effectiveness of system sterilization
techniques, increasing the possibility of
bacterial contamination. Industry
standard surface finishes are measured
in micro inches, the lower the number
the smoother, and are expressed as an
arithmetic average (Ra). Typical industry
specified surface finishes range from
32 to 10 in. Ra.

To combat the corrosive nature of clean


steam, design practices require piping,
fittings and valving to be comprised of
corrosion resistant materials. Current
industry accepted materials include

5.

6.

Extra care should be taken for expansion stresses due to the higher
coefficient of expansion for stainless steel.
Branch connections are to be made
from the top of headers with the
block valve as close as possible to
the header.
The recommended types of
branch connections are tees and
reducing tees.
Steam lines should slope down to
traps (recommended 1% min.).
A dirt leg with trap station is
recommended at every change of
elevation (no undrainable pockets).
Extra care should be taken in pipe
supports to eliminate sagging.

7.

8.

9.

Instruments in general should be


kept to a minimum. However, where
required, it is recommended that:
A) All are installed in tees.
B) Pressure gauges be installed
with diaphragm seals.
C ) Flow meters be installed in the
vertical flow-up position to
eliminate pockets
D) Pressure reducing stations be
kept to a minimum.
Traps should be installed in the
vertical flow-down position to
eliminate pockets.
Trap block valves should be located
as close as possible to the user.

10. Condensate lines should be


sloped (recommended 1% min.) to
the end point. Note that
contaminated condensate should
always be piped to a process
sewer. Uncontaminated condensate (from drip legs) may be
recovered, if cost effective, and
used elsewhere in the plant (not as
Clean Steam make-up).
11. Condensate terminal points should
contain an air break (2 or 2 pipe
diameters, whichever is greater)
between the end of the pipe and
the drain, floor or grade.
12. Test connections for traps are
recommended-trap efficiency is
essential for Clean Steam.

FOR

STEAM APPLICATIONS

EXAMPLE

Using your system pressure and capacity, select a


size from the Pressure Drop Tables below that will
yield a pressure drop in boldface type. This will
provide the most efficient separation with velocities
between 30 and 100 ft/s for sizes up to 212" and
between 30 and 90 ft/s for sizes 3" and above.

For a system under 400 PSIG with a capacity of


500#/hr, a 1/2" or 3/4" separator is recommended.
a. A 1/2" separator will provide a 1.86 PSIG
pressure drop.
b. A 3/4" separator will provide a 0.59 PSIG
pressure drop.

SIZING ELIMINATOR STEAM SEPARATORS


SIZING

FOR

AIR APPLICATIONS

EXAMPLE

Using your system pressure and capacity, select a


size from the Pressure Drop Tables below that will
yield a pressure drop in boldface type. This will
provide the most efficient separation with velocities
between 8 and 60 ft/s for sizes up to 212" and
between 8 and 50 ft/s for sizes 3" and above.

For a system under 400 PSIG with a capacity of 500


SCFM, a 2" or 212" separator is recommended.
a. A 2" separator will provide a 0.12 PSIG
pressure drop.
b. A 212" separator will provide a 0.06 PSIG
pressure drop.

No Energy Losses from expensive steam and process
fluid leaks. A spiral-wound gasket ensures a leak-tight seal.
Lower Maintenance/Labor Costs Replacement of the
union housing is eliminated. Only a change of gasket is
required when the Uniflex Coupling is disassembled. No
need to spring the pipe during make-up or disassembly. It
is less costly to make and break than flanges.
Lower Inventory Costs Only a few Uniflex Pipe
Couplings and gasket kits in each size are required to back
up installations. One Uniflex satisfies all pressure series of
flanges in pipe sizes 1/2" to 2".
Ease of Installation The gasket is held firmly in place
with a patented retainer. There is no danger of damaging
the seal during installation as it is fully protected from
overtorquing.
Welded Piping Systems With the gasket removed while
welding coupling into the piping, the danger of damaging
the seal is eliminated. Costly removal of sections of pipe to
replace leaky unions is eliminated.
Component Interchangeability All components of the
Uniflex Couplings, in each size class, are fully interchangeable. End connections can be socket weld, threaded, or a
combination of both.

OPERATION
The Uniflex Pipe Coupling (SUA) has successfully
solved frequent leakage, intensive maintenance
and stocking difficulties associated with ground
joint-pipe unions.
The SUA is a modified forged steel or stainless
steel pipe union utilizing a Spiral-Wound Gasket

to provide a leak-tight joint. This design, similar in


principle to flange joints, has been proven in the field for
many years. Because the joint seal is formed by the
replaceable gasket (not a ground joint finish), failures
caused by poor mating surfaces are eliminated.
Components may be stocked and replaced individually
because mated parts are not required for sealing.

DUAL DISK CHECK VALVE DESIGN FEATURES


WAFER DUAL DISC DESIGN ADVANTAGE
The short face to face design inherently
makes this check valve significantly lighter
(10% of the weight of a conventional swing
check). The valve is designed to fit between
two flanges and requires no flanges of its
own. The dual disc check valve can be

installed in any position as the spring aids in


keeping the valve closed (Consult factory for
vertical downward flow). These features allow
you to design your piping layout in the most
efficient and least expensive fashion.

SHOCK BUMPERS
An integral cast bumper is present on all Series
WT dual disc check valves (Except class 125
Lb.). The bumpers can be found on both discs,
which meet when the valve reaches a fully open
position. This design feature prevents the discs
from pressing against the stop pin and eliminates
leverage that would cause unnecessary stresses
and wear. The purpose of the stop pin is to
prevent over travel of either disc, which would
result in valve failure.

FIGURE 1

RESILIENT SEAT
The basic design of the Series WT dual disc
check valve is illustrated in Fig. 2. This seal is
chemically bonded using specially designed
adhesives that provide rubber tearing bonds
throughout the operating range of the seat
material. In case of resilient seat failure, the
design permits the discs to float and make

FIGURE 2

contact with the metal surface the seats were


adhered to. This feature allows the valve to
function even if the resilient seat is not present.
The seat design illustrated in Fig. 3 is also
available. This design results in a controlled
seat squeeze and provides a metal to metal
backup seal (Fig.4).

FIGURE 3

FIGURE 4

DUAL DISK CHECK VALVE DESIGN FEATURES


MINIMAL SEAT WEAR
The Series WT dual disc check valve was
designed to eliminate the possibility of seat
wear caused by friction at the heel of the
dual discs while maintaining low back
pressure sealing capabilities. The clearance
between the body, disc and hinge pin
results in the discs cracking open at the

heel location first. When the valve opens the


heel does not drag across the seating surface
and cause wear. As the valve closes, the
spring will take the toe of the disc into the
seating surface first, while the line back
pressure will force the heels and hinge pin
back to the seat to complete the seal.

FIGURE 5

SPRING CLOSING
The specially designed torsion spring in the Series WT
dual disc check valve holds the valve discs closed
under no flow conditions (Consult factory for vertical
downward flow). Pipeline flow (head) causes the discs
to open and conversely when flow decays to a point
near zero velocity, the force from the legs of the torsion
spring instantly closes the valve discs for non-slam
shutoff. The Series WT dual disc check valve comes
complete with corrosion resistant stainless steel springs
as standard.

FIGURE 6

RETAINERLESS OPTION
A retainerless design is available that eliminates all possibility of leakage through the pin
retainers. Please contact factory.

(1) If # appears, material is recommended for use up to indicated temperature (F). (2) AB = Aluminum Bronze, CS = Carbon Steel, 316 = 316 Stainless Steel.
(3) If uncertain, please contact factory concerning valve compatibility.
No representation, warranty or guarantee of compatibility, expressed or implied, is made by this Selection Guide due to the complexity and almost infinite
variations of mixtures, concentrations, temperatures and flow conditions possible in actual service. As a result, the end user must assume all responsibility
for ultimate determination of value compatibility.

INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS


DUAL DISC CHECK VALVES
VALVE LOCATION

AND

ORIENTATION

IN

PIPING

Check valves should be installed if possible a minimum


of 6 pipe diameters from other line elements, i.e.
elbows, pumps, valves, etc.
Horizontal Lines
Valves installed in horizontal lines must be bolted
in place with the hinge post in the vertical position,
i.e. in such a manner that the hinge pin retainers
are at the top and bottom of the installed valve,
perpendicular to the flow.

Vertical Lines
In the upward position, no special attention needs
to be given to the hinge post position. The only
exception being when mounted directly downstream of an elbow. In this case the hinge post
should be mounted perpendicular to the outermost portion of the elbow. Consult factory for
vertical down flow applications.

PRECAUTIONS

Do not install Series WT check valves directly


against another valve whereby the check valve
discharges downstream directly into the valve.
Do not install the valve whereby it directly
discharges downstream into a tee or elbow fitting.

Series WT check valves should not be used in


severe pulsating services such as reciprocating
compressor discharges.
It is recommended that the check valves be
installed a minimum of three pipe diameters
downstream of a pump or compressor.

MAINTENANCE
Spence Series WT check valves are permanently lubricated and normally require no routine maintenance.

RECONDITIONING
IMPORTANT! PRIOR TO DISASSEMBLY, VALVE
MUST FIRST BE ISOLATED FROM SYSTEM
PRESSURE AND FLOW.
Disc & Shaft Removal
CAUTION! BEFORE ATTEMPTING THE
FOLLOWING SHAFT EXTRACTION, BE SURE TO
PRESS A HAND OVER THE DISC SPRING.
FAILURE TO DO THIS MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY DUE TO THE SPRING LAUNCHING
ITSELF UNEXPECTEDLY ONCE THE SHAFT IS
PULLED FREE OF IT.

After observing the above precaution, remove the


valve from the pipeline and lay flat with open,
body cavity side facing up. Remove pipe plugs
from top and bottom of body with a wrench.
Insert a punch and lightly tap the top of the shaft
until it is accessible on the other side of the body.
Pull shaft through body to remove. The internals
of the valve are now ready to be cleaned and
inspected.

REASSEMBLY
Use new replacement parts, as required and a liberal
amount of general-purpose grease (such as Mystic JT6) on seals and machined mating surfaces. Reinsert
the disc into the body cavity with the shaft holes inline
with top and bottom shaft port. Slide the shaft into the

body through the shaft opening on one side of the


valve. Continue sliding the shaft through the disc,
spring and remaining shaft port the opposite side of
the body. Install pipe plugs into the body using a good
industrial grade thread sealant compound.

(1) PS stands for PHYSICAL STATE at room temperature; S=Solid, L=Liquid, G=Gas.
(2) If uncertain, please consult factory concerning valve compatibility.
No representation, warranty or guarantee of compatibility, expressed or implied, is made by this Selection Guide due to the complexity and almost infinite
variations of mixtures, concentrations, temperatures and flow conditions possible in actual service. As a result, the end user must assume all responsibility
for ultimate determination of value compatibility.

INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS


BUTTERFLY VALVES
1.0

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

A. Piping and Flange Compatibilities - The Series


125 WB/LB butterfly valves have been designed
to be installed between all types of ANSI 125/150
flanges, whether flat-faced, raised-faced, slip-on,
weld-neck, etc. They have been engineered so that
the critical disc chord dimension at the full open
position will clear the adjacent inside diameter of
most types of piping, including Schedule 40, lined
pipe, heavy wall, etc. If in question, one should
compare the minimum pipe I.D. with the published
disc cord dimension at full open.
B. Valve Location and Orientation in Piping.
1. Valve Location - Butterfly valves should be
installed, if possible, a minimum of 6 pipe diameters from other line elements, i.e. elbows,
pumps, valves, etc. Of course, 6 pipe diameters
is not always practical, but it is important to
achieve as much distance as possible. Where

INSTALLATION

PROCEDURE

A. General Installation
1.Make sure the pipeline and pipe flange faces
are clean. Any foreign material, such as pipe
scale, metal chips, welding slag, etc., can
obstruct disc movement and/or damage the
disc or seat.
2. The valve has a phenolic backed seat. As a
result, no gaskets are required. This seat serves
the function of a gasket.
3. Align the piping and then spread the pipe
flanges a distance apart so as to permit the
valve body to be easily dropped between the
flanges without contacting the pipe flanges.
4. Check to see that the valve disc has been
positioned to a partially open position, with the
disc edge about 1/4 to 3/8 from the face of
the seat (approximately 10 open).
5. Insert the valve between the flanges, taking
care not to damage the seat faces. Always pick
the valve up by the locating holes or by using a
nylon sling on the neck of the body. Never pick
up the valve by the actuator or operator
mounted on top of the valve.
6. Place the valve between the flanges, center it,
and then span the valve body with all flange
bolts, but do not tighten the bolts. Carefully
open the disc to the full open position, making
sure the disc does not hit the adjacent pipe I.D.
Systematically remove jack bolts on other

3.0

the butterfly valve is connected to a check


valve or pump, use an expansion joint between
them to ensure the disc does not interfere with
the adjacent equipment.
2.Valve Orientation
a) In general, we recommend the valve be
installed with the stem in the vertical position
and the actuator mounted vertically directly
above the valve; however there are those
applications as discussed below where the
stem should be horizontal. The valve should
not be installed upside down.
b) For slurries, sludge, mine tailing, pulp stock,
dry cement, and any media with sediment or
particles, we recommend the valve be installed
with the stem in the horizontal position with the
lower disc edge opening in the downstream
direction.

MAINTENANCE

AND

flange spreaders and hand-tighten the flange


bolts. Very slowly close the valve disc to ensure
disc edge clearance from the adjacent pipe
flange I.D. Open the disc to full open and
tighten all flange bolts per specification. Repeat
a full close to full open rotation of the disc to
ensure proper clearances.
B. Installation with Flange Welding - When butterfly
valves are to be installed between ANSI welding
type flanges, care should be taken to abide by the
following procedure to ensure no damage will
occur to the seat:
1. Place the valve between the flanges with the
flange bores and valve body bore aligned
properly. The disc should be in the 10 open
position.
2. Span the body with the bolts.
3. Take this assembly of flange-body-flange and
align it properly to the pipe.
4. Tack weld the flanges to the pipe.
5. When tack welding is complete, remove the
bolts and the valve from the pipe flanges and
complete the welding of the flanges. Be sure to
let the pipe and flanges cool before installing
the valve.
6. NOTE: Never complete the welding process
(after tacking) with the valve between pipe
flanges. This causes severe seat damage due
to heat transfer.

REPAIR

The many features of the Series 125 WB/LB minimize


wear and maintenance requirements. No routine lubrication is required. If components require replacement,

the valve may be removed from the line by placing the


disc near the closed position, then supporting the
valve and removing the flange bolts.

Y STRAINER DESIGN FEATURES


BODY-COVER FLANGED JOINTS
Flanged body-cover joints are designed to meet
the requirements of ASME Section VIII, Div. 1
and/or ASME B16.5.
For Series 150YF and 300YF strainers, the
body-cover joint is designed using the equations
found in Appendix II of the ASME Pressure
Vessel Code. Calculations are performed using
standard gaskets and with the existence of a
edge moment. The gasket cavity is fully enclosed
ensuring proper gasket alignment while preventing unwinding of spiral wound gaskets if used.
Exclusive

Series 600YF, 900YF and 1500YF strainers


incorporate a body-cover joint that is in dimensional accordance with the flange dimensions
specified in ASME B16.5. Among the advantages
of this strong leak-proof design is the convenience of using gaskets that are in accordance
with ASME B16.20 and ASME B16.21. This
feature eliminates the need for dimensionally
special gaskets when maintenance is performed.

BODY-COVER THREADED JOINTS


The design of a strong threaded body-cover
joint is dependent on many factors. When
designing these joints for strainers, calculations
are performed taking into account thread shear
(ASME B16.34), cover thickness and operating/
gasket seating loads (ASME Sect. VIII, Div. 1).
Basic dimensions such as wall thickness and
band diameters are in accordance with ASME
codes.

Y STRAINER DESIGN FEATURES


SCREEN SEATING
All

Spence Y-Strainers are manufactured with both


upper and lower machined seats. This feature
eliminates debris by-pass while also acts to securely hold the screen in position when in service.
For assembly and disassembly purposes,
Spence Y-Strainers are designed so that the
screen is securely slid over or into a machined lip
on the cover bonnet. This allows the screen to be
easily guided into the upper machined seat
during assembly.
In particular, for Series 600YF, 900YF and 1500YF
strainers, where the cover flange tends to be
heavy and difficult to maneuver, the screen is also
guided around its circumference by the strainer
body. This feature eliminates the possibility of
misaligning the strainer screen during assembly
while providing additional support to the screen
when in service. This circumferential support
reduces maintenance time and costs since the
strainer can be assembled quicker and safer than
with other designs.

Using the above formula, Spence can design and manufacture any strainer screen to suit your specific strength
requirements.

EFFECT OF SCREEN AREA ON PRESSURE DROP

Pressure Drop

All Spence Y-Strainers are equipped with


screens that have an open flow area many
times greater than the pipe nominal crosssectional area. This is important in order to
reduce initial pressure drop and decrease the
rate in which the pressure drop increases as
the strainer screen becomes clogged. As
shown in the figure the larger the screen area
the lower the rate of increase in pressure drop.
A Y-Strainer screen must be strong enough to
handle the resulting differential pressure that
occurs when in service. In general all Spence
strainer screens are designed to handle a
minimum burst pressure of 50 psid. Spence
calculates the burst pressure of screens using
the formula:

ORDERING CODE

SIZING INFO

FABRICATED STRAINERS
QUICK OPENING COVERS AND COVER REMOVAL AIDS
The quick release covers and cover removal aids available on fabricated strainers are
distinguished by their compact size and functional design. Materials of construction are in
accordance with ASME specifications and manufacturing complies with the applicable rules
of the ASME Code for Pressure Piping and with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.

COVER TYPE BD DAVIT ASSEMBLY


The Davit assembly is used to enable the user
to swing the cover away from the strainer in
order to facilitate basket or screen removal for
cleaning. Its primary use is for larger sized
strainers where cover removal is difficult. The
davit assembly is an inexpensive alternative to
quick release covers, especially when operating
conditions require a bolted cover to be utilized.

COVER TYPE H T-BOLT HINGED COVER


The T-bolt hinged cover is used for nominal
pressure applications while being the most
inexpensive closure available on Spence
fabricated strainers. The T-bolt hinged cover is
opened quickly and easily using an O-Ring as
a seal. The operator merely loosens the T-bolts
until they clear the holding lugs and allow the
head to be swung open on its hinge. Camlock
and Break-over Wrench assemblies are also
available that eliminate the need of a wrench.

FABRICATED STRAINERS
QUICK OPENING COVERS AND COVER REMOVAL AIDS
COVER TYPE Y YOKE HINGED COVER
The yoke hinged closure is a true ANSI rated closure.
Used primarily on high pressure applications, yoke
hinged covers are available with 150#, 300#, 600#,
900#, and 1500# ANSI ratings. Yoke hinged covers
available on fabricated strainers are available with a
wide range of operating aids ranging from single-lever
chain and sprocket drives to completely auto mated
types. O-rings are utilized as the sealing member.

COVER TYPE T QUICK OPENING THREADED COVER


The threaded cover closure consists of a cap
which fastens to a hub that has been welded to
the strainer body. The female cap is threaded
onto the male hub and an O-Ring is utilized to
make the seal. The placement of this O-Ring
prevents corrosion of the closure threads
allowing for long, trouble free service. The
threaded closure can be utilized on both
nominal and high pressure applications.

FACTORS

TO CONSIDER

1 Purpose
If the strainer is being used for protection
rather than direct filtration, standard screens
will suffice in most applications.

2 Service
60 Mesh - 38% O.A.
0.010 Openings
40 Mesh - 41% O.A.

0.027 Dia. - 23% O.A.

0.033 Dia. - 28% O.A.

With services that require extremely sturdy


screens, such as high pressure/ temperature applications or services with high
viscosities, perforated screens without
mesh liners are recommended. If mesh is
required to obtain a certain level of filtration,
then a trapped perf/mesh/perf combination
is recommended.

3 Filtration Level
When choosing a perf. or a mesh/perf.
combination, attention should be given to
ensure overstraining does not occur. As a
general rule, the specified level of filtration
should be no smaller than half the size of
the particle to be removed. If too fine a
filtration is specified, the pressure drop
through the strainer will increase very
rapidly, possibly causing damage to the
screen.

3/64 Dia. - 36% O.A.

1/16 Dia. - 37% O.A.

3/32 Dia. - 39% O.A.

How to Use:
1) Determine the pressure drop (P1) through the strainer with water flow and standard screens.
2) If non-standard screens (i.e. 40 mesh, etc.) are being used, apply factors in Chart #1 to determine
corrected pressure drop (P2).
3) Multiply P1 or P2 (if used) by the specific gravity of the fluid actually flowing through the strainer to get P3.
4) Using Chart #2 multiply P3 by the appropriate Component Factor (CF) to get P4.
5) Let P5 = P3 - P4.
6) Multiply P4 by the appropriate Body Loss Factor (BF) in Chart #3 to get P6.
7) Multiply P5 by the appropriate Screen Loss factor (PF or MF) in Chart #3 to get P7.
8) Total pressure drop P8 = P6 + P7.
Example:
Strainer Size: 6
Model:
150BFSBW1
Filtration:
100 Mesh lined 1/8 perf.
Flow rate:
700 GPM
Specific Gravity:1
Viscosity:
100 cP

A) As shown in the above example, the corrected pressure drop


(P2) = 1.08 psid
B) Since S.G. = 1, P3 = P2 = 1.08 psid
C) Using Chart #2 P4 = 0.35 x P3 = 0.38 psid
D) P5 = 1.08 - 0.38 = 0.7 psid
E) Using Chart #3 P6 = 0.38 x 1.6 = 0.61 psid
F) Again using Chart #3 P7 = 0.7 x 6.5 = 4.55 psid
G) Total pressure drop P8 = 0.61 + 4.55 = 5.16 psid clean

The Pressure Drop Chart indicates a drop of 0.75 psid with standard screen.
The Screen Openings Chart indicates the % Open area (OA) of 5/32 Perf. is 58%.
Using Chart #1 we read the correction factor to be 0.65 for 5/32 Perf.
Total clean pressure drop equals 0.75 x 0.65 = 0.49 psid.
Since a non-standard screen is being used, we must calculate the Ratio free

F) The Effective Area Chart indicated Ag = 330 in2, Ap = 113 in2.
G) The ratio free area to pipe area is calculated as 1.7:1. (2:1 approx.)

INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS


STRAINER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Ensure all machined surfaces are free of defects


and that the inside of the strainer is free of
foreign objects.
For horizontal and vertical pipelines, the strainer
should be installed so that the blow-down drain
connection is pointed downward.
For flanged end strainers, the flange bolting
should be tightened gradually in a back and forth

SCREEN REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS (Y, BASKET, T

AND

Drain piping (For Duplex Strainers, isolate


required chamber).
Vent line to relieve pressure.
Loosen cover and open to access screen.
Remove, clean and replace screen in original
position (Note: In some instances, a high
pressure water jet or steam may be required for
effective cleaning)

clockwise motion. Threaded end strainers should


use an appropriate sealant.
Once installed, increase line pressure gradually
and check for leakage around joints.
If the strainer is supplied with a start-up screen,
monitor pressure drop carefully.

DUPLEX)

Inspect cover gasket for damage. If necessary,


replace. (Note: If spiral wound gaskets have been
used, they must be replaced and can not be
used again).
Tighten cover. The strainer is ready for line startup.
CAUTION SHOULD BE TAKEN DUE TO POSSIBLE
EMISSION OF PROCESS MATERIAL FROM PIPING.
ALWAYS ENSURE NO LINE PRESSURE EXISTS
WHEN OPENING COVER.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
For maximum efficiency, determine the length of time
it takes for the pressure drop to double that in the
clean condition. Once the pressure drop reaches an
unacceptable value, shut down line (For Duplex
Strainers divert flow to other chamber) and follow the

TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDES

AND

Screen Removal Instructions above. A pressure


gauge installed before and after the strainer in-line
will indicate pressure loss due to clogging and may
be used to determine when cleaning is required.

DIAGNOSTIC TECHNIQUES

After pressurizing, inspect cover and other joints


for leakage. Gasket replacement or cover
tightening is necessary if leakage occurs.

If the required filtration is not taking place, ensure


the screen is installed in the correct position, that
being flush to the screen seating surfaces.

LIMITED WARRANTY

ED SINGLE STAGE

TYPE ED
SINGLE STAGE PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE

APPLICATION:
To reduce a steady or varying lnlet pressure to a constant adjustable delivery pressure.
OPERATION:
Valve is operated by incoming pressure. As delivery pressure nears spring setting on
pilot, valve starts to modulate and maintain set pressure.

RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION OF REGULATOR WITH STRAINER

ADVANTAGES:
Accurate, sensitive control.
Packless construction.
High capacity.
Inexpensive.

ED PARALLEL

TYPE ED PARALLEL (ADDITIVE)


PRESSURE REDUCING STATION

APPLICATION:
Used on widely varying flow conditions
OPERATION:
Load is typically split 1/3 - 2/3. Small valve is sized for 1/3 of load and is lead valve set
for desired delivery pressure. Large valve is lag valve set 2 - 3 psig lower than delivery pressure
of small valve. On low flow demand, small valve only will be flowing; as flow increases and
small valve cannot handle flow, the delivery pressure drops and large valve opens.

ADVANTAGES:
Better rangeability.
Accurate control.

ED TWO STAGE

TYPE ED TWO-STAGE
PRESSURE REDUCING STATION

APPLICATION:
Used when reducing from high inlet pressure to low delivery pressure.
OPERATION:
Same as single stage reduction. When delivery pressure approaches spring setting on
pilot, main valve throttles to maintain setting.

ADVANTAGES:
Less velocity noise.
Less maintenance costs.
Safety is increased.

ED TURBINE EXHAUST MAKE-UP

TYPE ED
TURBINE EXHAUST MAKE-UP VALVE

APPLICATION:
To provide additional (make-up) steam to turbine exhaust main.
OPERATION:
When turbine load decreases and turbine exhaust is insufficient for steam load, very slight
drop in exhaust pressure causes pressure regulator to feed correct amount of steam to meet demand.

ADVANTAGES:
Pilot operated accuracy avoids undue pressure drop before makeup starts.
Constant accurate supply to user.
Ease of operation - set & forget.

EF14(D) STEAM
ALLOCATING

TYPE EF14 AND EF14D


STEAM ALLOCATING VALVES
APPLICATION:
To provide for distribution of steam from an occasionally overloaded boiler to most
essential services first.
OPERATION:
With boiler operating within rated load and at rated pressure, F14 pilots (set slightly lower)
are wide open and main valves are either wide open or under control of alternate pilots and
delivering all the steam each line requires. Then, when load increases beyond boiler capacity and
boiler pressure drops, the F14 pilots will throttle the main valves, restricting the flow to the less
vital processes and permitting the others to function at rating.

ADVANTAGES:
Less expensive than separate back pressure valve (when combined with pressure,
temperature or other regulating valves).
Can frequently postpone necessity of buying larger boiler.
Provides assurance against loss of steam to boiler auxiliaries.

ED REMOTE
SHUTOFF

TYPE ED
REMOTE SHUT OFF

EP130 TRIP VALVE


FOR TALL BUILDINGS

TYPE EP125 TRIP VALVE


APPLICATION:
In some district heating and steam distribution systems, the use of relief valves and vent
piping may not be feasible, because of building height. Where such a condition exists, and the
system steam pressure does not exceed 400 psi, ANSI B31.1-1977, Paragraph 102.2.5 permits
the use of a pressure reducing valve and a trip stop valve in series to provide over-pressure
protection.
The P125 trip pilot is a self-operated device intended to be used in conjunction with a
normally-closed Spence main valve, providing a trip stop valve, as cited in previous paragraph.
OPERATION:
During normal operation, the P125 pilot holds its main valve in the open position. Reduced
pressure is under control of primary P.R.V.
If reduced pressure rises to the set point of P125 (generally 5 psig over controlled
pressure), it will shut and lock closed. This action closes its main valve and shuts system off.

EA93 AUTOMATIC
TRANSFER

EA93 AUTOMATIC TRANSFER


PRESSURE REDUCING STATION
APPLICATION:
The Spence Type EA93 Automatic Transfer Station is designed to provide accurate and
stable control of reduced pressure throughout an exceptionally wide range of flow conditions.
This design maximizes the rangeability of the station, while minimizing the extreme throttling
encountered in single valve stations operating under the identical conditions. Balanced
construction insures stability of regulator.
OPERATION:
The Type EA93 Automatic Transfer Station consists of two pressure reducing valves
installed in parallel. The larger of these valves is sized for 100% of the required load. The smaller
valve is sized for a fraction (typically 15% to 25%) of the required load. Both valves are operated
in a predetermined sequence by a pneumatic controller. An interlocking system of pneumatic
relays provided the logic to sequence the operation of the station.
Under low flow conditions, the smaller valve will handle the demands on the station; the
larger valve will be shut. As demand increases, the smaller valve will gradually open until it
reaches the full open position. Upon further increases in demand, the larger valve will open and,
simultaneously, the smaller valve will shut. The larger valve will then carry the higher loads on its
own. Should demand drop, this sequence reverses: control of the flow is transferred back to the
smaller valve and, simultaneously, the larger valve closes.

ADVANTAGES:
Greater rangeability than single valve.
Pressure switches can be adapted to system for additional safety.
Standard stock valves can be used.

air loading pressure to diaphragm of E2 valve. Opening time is regulated by adjusting needle
valve on flow control. When solenoid is shut off, it bleeds loading air from diaphragm of the E2
valve allowing it to close.

ADVANTAGES:
Low cost.
Closes on loss of air.
Remote controlled.

EA FOR GAYLORD
SHOWER

pressure saturated steam instead of high pressure dry steam at the Gaylord Shower.
OPERATION:
A Spence Type EA Pressure Regulator supplied by a Type B Panel is installed in the steam
supply line to the Gaylord Shower and Steamer Pipe (if used) to reduce the steam pressure used.
When high pressure saturated steam is reduced in a single step to 0 psi, the quality of the steam
may be so enhanced as to introduce a certain degree of superheat. By comparison to low
pressure saturated steam, low pressure superheated steam is a rather inefficient transmitter of
heat and moisture to paper.

ADVANTAGES:
Reduced steam consumption.
Improved paper conditioning.
Self-contained, packless construction.
Reduced pressure relatively unaffected by varying supply pressures.
B Panel may be remotely located.

EA FOR CORRUGATOR PLATE

APPLICATION

TYPE EAT60 TEMPERATURE REGULATOR


for WAX APPLICATION CONTROL

APPLICATION:
To provide fast accurate control of the wax temperature in order to assure the proper
coating of the product.
OPERATION:
The Spence Type EAT60 utilizes cascade control, whereby a pneumatic Temperature
Controller, sensing wax temperature, is used to reset a pneumatically adjusted pressure regulator
sensing the steam pressure in the heater. Any change in demand on the heater causes a change
in the steam pressure in the heater, and the EA Pressure Regulator responds to it immediately,
maintaining a given pressure in the heater. When a change in wax temperature is sensed by the
T60 Temperature Controller, it resets the EA Pressure Regulator to a new pressure, thus
maintaining a fixed wax temperature.

ADVANTAGES:
Fast accurate control of wax temperature
Packless construction
Pressure sensing anticipates load changes before thermostat sees temperature change
(cascade control).
No separate PRV needed.

APPLICATION:
To provide increased economy by controlling the viscosity of the fuel oil to a burner unit
while, at the same time, retaining conventional self-contained temperature regulation for
emergency use in the event of pneumatic system failure.
OPERATION:
In normal operation the 1/4" gate valve supplying the Type T124 Pilot is closed, the 1/4:"
gate valve supplying the Type A Pilot is open. The Norcross Viscosity Meter samples the viscosity
of the fuel oil discharge of the fuel oil heater and adjusts the 3 to 15 psi air loading signal to the
Type EA Regulator. The correct steam pressure and flow is supplied to the fuel oil heater to
optimize fuel oil viscosity for burner unit efficiency. In the event of a pneumatic system failure,

TYPE EF14D PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE


with BACK PRESSURE CONTROL

APPLICATION:
To retard flow of steam to a rate that can be handled by the boiler.

Frequently, large automatic on-off control valves, or inexperienced equipment operators,


impose load pick-ups on a steam system that the boilers cannot follow. An F14 pilot added to the
pressure regulator feeding such loads can be set to throttle, when the boiler pressure sags, as it
does on such a quick load surge. Then, when the boiler has increased its steam rate, the F pilot
will re-open and permit full load to be handled.

ADVANTAGES:
Only slight additional cost overpressure regulator alone.
Operates on small differential - does not allow large drop in boiler pressure.
Prevents upsetting boiler controls.
All standard equipment.

PUMP BYPASS

OPERATION:

TYPE EN
DIFFERENTIAL REGULATOR

APPLICATION:
To regulate the atomizing steam pressure to an oil burner by pre-setting that amount
higher than the oil pressure.

EN DIFFERENTIAL
FOR OIL BURNER

OPERATION:
The steam pressure under the diaphragm of the Type N Pilot is balanced by the oil
pressure and the adjusting spring on top. Once set, the adjusting spring force is constant.
Therefore, as the combustion control valve raises the oil pressure, the regulator raises the
steam pressure until the pilot diaphragm is again in balance.

ADVANTAGES:
Accurate pilot control.
Valve can be balanced for greater rangeability.
Self contained.

TYPE N6
DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE VALVE

APPLICATION:
To maintain pump discharge pressure at a constant differential above boiler steam pressure.

The desired differential is made by the adjusting spring. The boiler feed pressure will then
be maintained by the N6 at a constant pressure above the steam drum pressure by modulating
the quantity of water by-passed to pump suction.

ADVANTAGES:
Self contained.
Easily adjustable.
Stainless steel trim.

OPERATION:

TYPE C34N
DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE REGULATOR

APPLICATION:
To provide control of pressure drop across the boiler level regulator, when boiler is
supplied by a motor driven centrifugal pump.

C34N DIFFERENTIAL
BOILER LEVEL

OPERATION:
As the demand for feedwater decreases and the level regulator throttles, the C34N also
throttles, offsetting the increased pump discharge pressure and maintaining the inlet pressure to
the level regulator at a constant differential over the boiler pressure. For high temperature water
over 200F., use E main valve instead of C34.

ADVANTAGES:
Reduces maintenance on level regulator.
Self operated.
Accuracy of pilot operation.

TYPE C34N20
DIFFERENTIAL REGULATOR

APPLICATION:
To maintain a constant pressure differential across the terminal units of a chilled water
system.

The differential pressure across the system is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the
spring compression on the N20 pilot. This spring force, plus the return line pressure, is balanced
by the supply line pressure. A change in flow through the terminal units will be compensated by
the C34 valve, with the result that the pressure drop across the system will be held at a constant
value.

with MUFFLING ORIFICE

APPLICATION:
The Spence muffling orifice reduces the generation of pressure regulator noise at its source.
It provides an economical means of attenuating high flow PRV noises by 6 - 20 dba.

The muffling orifice consists of a steel plate with primary orifices, to which is welded a
stainless steel plate with secondary orifices. The plate is installed in the expanded downstream
piping, and creates the desired back pressure on the PRV for maximum attenuation.

ADVANTAGES:
Inexpensive.
Maintenance free.
Capacity of valve not reduced.
Ease of installation.

REGULATOR W/

OPERATION:

PRESSURE REGULATOR
with NOISE SUPPRESSOR

APPLICATION:

REGULATOR W/
NOISE SUPPRESSOR

The Spence Noise Suppressor is designed to attenuate the noise generated by a pressure
reducing station. These devices are particularly effective in limiting the propagation of valvegenerated noise into the downstream piping. Being of the dissipative reactive type, they are effective
over abroad frequency band (up to 12,000 Hz). Depending upon flow and piping configuration, noise
attenuation of up to 20 decibels is obtainable.
OPERATION:
Installed at the reducing valve outlet, the required pipeline expansion takes place within
the noise suppressor. This expanded outlet feature eliminates the expense and noise often
associated with separate expansion fittings. A reflector assembly improves performance by
increasing the interaction of flow and acoustic material. The straight through design minimizes
pressure drop, permitting normal valve sizing.

ADVANTAGES:
Maintenance free.
Standard Spence valves used.
Capacity of valve not reduced.

TYPE NFT FREE FLOAT STEAM TRAP


for FAST START-UP in CORRUGATION PLANTS
APPLICATION: Hot Plates and Cylinder Dryers
PLANTS: Corrugator Plants
EXAMPLES: Green Bay Packaging
Menasha Corporation
Packaging Corporation of America
International Paper
PROBLEM:
The existing systems were always designed to eliminate the problems with a standard inverted
bucket steam trap. This is due to the on/off operation of inverted bucket and the inability for an
inverted bucket to vent air fast for start-up purposes. The plants will typically group-trap the
cylinders and hot plates and this will cause temperature fluctuation and production problems.
SOLUTION: Free Float Trap with SLR (Steam Lock Release)
Use a free-flow design steam trap which gives them the ability to vent air for a fast start-up. Also,
the continuous flow operation allows for even temperature on the hot plate and cylinder dryer.
The cylinder dryer will have a siphoning joint on the unit and a continuous flow design steam trap
will always ensure condensate being evacuated from the cylinder.
Lifting condensate from the cylinder dryer through the rotary siphoning joint may cause the
condensate to flash. Utilizing the SLR option allows a slight, continuous bleed which prevents
flash steam from locking up the trap. This option is useful wherever piping configurations require
a lift in elevation before the trap.
In some cases, our preference is to discharge the steam trap into a high back-pressured
condensate return system and return this condensate directly back to the de-aerator, thus
capturing all the flash steam and energy.

TYPE NFT FREE FLOAT STEAM TRAP


to PREVENT FREEZING in STEAM COILS
APPLICATION:
Steam Coils are used for process heating and HVAC purposes in industrial and commercial plants,
universities, hospitals, etc.

NFT TRAP
STEAM COILS

PROBLEM:
The maintenance staff usually have a lot of problems with steam coils freezing during winter
operation. This is caused by steam traps being the wrong design and also sizing problems. Steam
Coils will have a modulating control valve on the inlet of the coil to modulate the steam flow to the
coil, depending on outlet temperature. When there is just a small requirement for heating and the
outside air temperature is between 28 and 38 degrees Fahrenheit, which is cold enough, if
condensate backs up in the coil it will freeze the coil. The steam trap should be sized for a very
low differential at the full condensate load rate. Also, there is a need to review the condensate
return system to ensure there is no unnecessary back pressure on the steam traps.
SOLUTION: Free Float Steam Trap
The free float design steam trap is continuous flow, which is the best operational design for steam
coil applications. The steam trap can operate at a half or one PSI differential and remove the
condensate without any problem. If the steam coils are properly piped, trapped, there should not
be any problem with coils freezing.Typically when you approach a customer, do not to ask them if
they have any problems with steam coils but how many steam coils did they freeze the previous
year in operation. Now you have the solution.

TYPE NFT FREE FLOAT STEAM TRAP


to PREVENT FREEZING of OUTSIDE AIR HEATING COILS
APPLICATION:
Air pre-heat coils must be constantly drained or they will freeze. If flow stops, the bottom of the
coil will freeze, even when there is steam in the top of the coil. Maintenance people become
expert at cutting and soldering split tubes. If traps are failed open or a throttled, open, by-pass
valve is used, freezing will not occur, but this results in considerable steam loss. The solution is to
use a continuous discharge type trap (Variable orifice free float trap).
The trap must be sized for a high load at a low pressure differential. This is because the coils use
modulating control valves which reduce the pressure from time to time, even though air
temperature is below freezing. A coil of 2 feet by 6 feet (a very common size) will require a SFT
252 with a #20 or #100 orifice, depending on the maximum inlet pressure.
INSTALLATION:
Piping must gravity drain the trap. A 1-1/2 pipe is recommended. High back pressure in the
condensate return cannot be tolerated. In some cases, discharge to a vented receiver is required.
A vacuum breaker on the coil is recommended, particularly on low steam pressure (15 psig).
ADVANTAGES:
True continuous condensate discharge of the NFT trap provides flow through the coil at all times.
No minimum operating pressure. Condensate drainage continues as long as any differential
exists, no matter how small.

NFT TRAP
AIR HEATING COILS

SELECTION:

TYPE NFT FREE FLOAT STEAM TRAP


for REBOILERS

NFT TRAP
REBOILERS

APPLICATION: REBOILERS
The most common process heat exchanger is a shell and tube vessel. Heat exchange occurs
through the tube surface with the product in the tubes or in the shell surrounding the tubes.
The steam, of course, is in the opposite space. In chemical plants or refineries, many shell
and tube heat exchangers are referred to as Reboilers. The steam is normally in the shell side,
with the product being heated in the tubes. The product is a petroleum base or other
chemical that can be subject to damage from overheating (known as charring). In order to
maintain the highest efficiency, it is necessary to control the temperature as close to this char
temperature as possible. If the heat exchange surface contacting the product reaches the
char temperature, charring occurs. This creates a hot spot that accelerates charring,
necessitating a cleaning (Hydro-blast) of the tubes. These reboilers are furnished in pairs, so
that one will be operating when the other is being cleaned (a lengthy and expensive
operation).
SELECTION:
The trap for a reboiler must be sized. However, it is relatively simple, as reboilers are usually
fully instrumented and the customer can tell you the exact load and pressure. In 75% of the
applications, the capacity required will be in the range of the NFT 253. If the reboiler does not
have a steam flow meter, revert to the drawing (always available) for design criteria.
ADVANTAGES OF THE NFT FREE FLOAT TRAP:
The continuous low velocity discharge of condensate allows for extremely good temperature
control.
The trap reacts immediately to control valve changes.
There is never a high velocity impingement of steam on the tubes. This does occur with
cycling traps that have static periods followed by high velocity flow. The impingement on
tubes increases heat transfer in a small area creating a hot spot and charring occurs.
Even flow, due to continuous discharge of condensate, prevents charring.
The simple construction provides long, maintenance-free life as opposed to traps with hinges,
pins, levers and fasteners.

pneumatic signal to the control valve to maintain the desired differential pressure (level).
ADVANTAGES:
Control action can be set for either direct or reverse action.
Utilizes standard plant air up to 60 psig maximum.
Use of a Valve Positioner can be eliminated with sufficient supply air pressure.
Easy to install and operate.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Reprinted Courtesy Fluid Controls Institute
PRESSURE REGULATORA self-operated device, either pilot or direct operated, in which
power to position the valve closure member is provided by the pressure of the controlled variable.
PRESSURE REDUCING REGULATORA device that controls and responds to changes in its
outlet pressure.
BACK PRESSURE REGULATORA device that controls and responds to change in its inlet
pressure.
DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE REGULATORA device that maintains a constant differential
pressure between a reference pressure and the pressure of the controlled fluid.
PUMP PRESSURE REGULATORA device that controls the speed of a pump in response to
changes in pump discharge pressure.
TEMPERATURE REGULATORA self operated device in which the energy to position valve
closure member(s) is provided by changes of temperature energy of the controlled variable.
DIRECT OPERATEDA regulator that uses a temperature thermal system to directly provide the
power to move the plug.
PILOT OPERATEDA regulator that uses a temperature thermal system to power a pilot
mechanism which generates an amplified signal to position the plug of the regulator. The pilot may
be internal or external.
PRESSURE TEMPERATUREA dual function piloted regulator combining the control of both
temperature and pressure. Control of pressure and temperature may be by a single pilot or multiple
pilots. Pilot(s) may be internal or external or these functions in combination may be available.
DIAPHRAGM ACTUATED REGULATORA regulator utilizing a diaphragm as the position
actuator.
ACCURACY OF REGULATION is the value of controlled variable (pressure, or differential
pressure) expressed as a percentage of the set value (at minimum controllable flow) when with a
constant supply pressure the flow through the regulator is increased from the minimum controllable
flow to the rated capacity (also equal to 100% minus the offset (droop) %).
MINIMUM CONTROLLABLE FLOW is the lowest flow at which a steady regulated condition of
the controlled variable can be maintained.
FLOW COEFFICIENT (Cv) is the regulator capacity in GPM of H2O at 20 degrees C with one PSI
pressure drop at full rated travel. Refer to ISA S75.01 and S75.02 for Testing Procedures and Sizing
Equations.
DEAD BANDThe range through which the controlled variable can reverse direction without and
observable regulator response.
REPEATABILITYAbility to return to any defined point within stated limits of regulation within a
specified tolerance.
DRIFTA change in set point over an extended period of time.
REVERSE ACTIONA regulator that increases its output as the measured variable increases.
DIRECT ACTIONA regulator that decreases its output as the measured variable increases.
PACKLESSA construction that does not employ a dynamic seal isolating internal fluid from
ambient or atmosphere.
BALANCEDA regulator style featuring a pressure balanced plug. May be single or double
seated.
UNBALANCEDA regulator where the plug closure number is not pressure balanced. Generally
a single regulator.
DROOPSee accuracy of regulation.
