Training Purpose
There are many different types of valves and the correct selection is imperative. Selection of the incorrect valve or sealing concepts may have an impact on safety, reliability, cost, and schedule. Valves used in todays projects are increasingly complex. The process conditions material limitations and specification conditions, limitations, regulations play into the difficulty of valve selection. Understanding the basic drivers behind valve design and material selections will offer competitive advantages for all ate a se ect o s o e co pet t e ad a tages o a parties of the supply chain.
History
Evidence of valves can be traced back to the times of the ancient Egyptians and Greeks. It is the Romans, however, who are generally recognized as the developers of comparatively sophisticated water i d th d l f ti l hi ti t d t systems. Their plumbing was advanced enough to deliver water into individual buildings, for which they developed the plug valve, or stopcock, and there is also evidence that the Romans used check valves to prevent back flow flow.
In manufacturing:
In the field:
Ball Spherical obturator used in Ball combination with a seat (or seats) to stop/allow flow. The ball is supported by trunnion using floating seats in a Trunnion ball valve. Floating ball valves use a floating al e al es se ball that seats on a stationary sealing surface.
Plug Similar to a ball valve, a plug valve has cylindrical or conically-tapered "plugs" which can be rotated inside the valve body to control flow through the valve. With the absence of soft seals in the flow path, these valves are ideal for abrasive service.
Check Used to prevent backflow. A clapper is used to shut with opposing pressure (or assisted by gravity).
Globe - Consists of a movable disk-type element and a stationary ring seat in a generally spherical body. It has an opening in the body that forms a y p g y seat onto which a movable plug can be screwed in to close (or shut) the valve.
Needle This valve has a small orifice and a threaded, needle-like plunger. It allows precise regulation of flow, although it is generally used for, and is capable of, only relatively small flow rates.
**Relief Valves and Control Valves are not covered in this training session.

Pressure moves ball into the downstream seat Trims available for multiple services Economically Priced
Pressure drives the upstream seat into the ball. The ball remains stationary. Double block and bleed design ( g (API 6D) )
Upstream and downstream seats isolate the cavity. The pressure in the cavity can then be relieved to prove the integrity of the seats.

Two individual but self contained ball valves in one compact design. Double Block/Double Isolation Barrier Total Isolation. Simplify critical isolation requirements for facility isolation, emergency shutdown and abrasive environments which often require two valves. Eliminates potential leak paths by removing two flanges and two body seals. Provides weight and space reductions reductions.

Double Piston Effect is a design whereby pressure in the cavity energizes the downstream seat and effects a downstream seal. DPE seats result in a double barrier within a single valve. Valves in liquid service with DPE seats must pipe-away the cavity pressure to the upstream side of the valve to prevent damage from thermal expansion. expansion

Seat with Plastic Insert Seal The plastic seal is inserted by means of a press with the interference determined according to the material. The interference prevents the g extrusion of the insert during the maneuver of the ball.
Metal to Metal Seat The metal to metal seal is obtained by means of a flexible seat with the ball and seat sealing surfaces coated with Tungsten Carbide . Metal seats are typically used in potentially erosive or abrasive service caused by the presence of solids.

The gate assembly consists of four main parts two gate segments and two centralizing levers. The main gate segment connects the gate assembly to the stem. The gate segments are connected together with two centralizing levers. Two gate guides are fitted inside the valve body and react with the centralizing levers.
The gate assembly is expanded g y p as result of the gate contacting on the bottom of valve body at the end of the closing stroke. There are two sealing barriers the upstream and the downstream seats There is no penetration of solid particles into the valve body cavity The valve cavity can be depressurized for valve diagnostic testing. testing
