Feature Benefit
Body-guided disks on globe and angle valves Minimizes wear and ensure alignment for tight sealing
Integral Stellite hard-faced seats in globe and angle valves Permits compact design and resist erosion
Hermetically sealed globe valves with seal-welded diaphragms Prevents stem leakage in critical nuclear plant applications
Equalizers for large check and stop-check valves Ensures full lift at moderate flow rates, and prevent damage due to instability
Compact pressure-seal bonnet joints Eliminates massive bolted flanges on large, high-pressure valves
Qualified stored-energy actuators Allows quick-closing valves in safety-related nuclear plant applications
Qualified valve-actuator combinations Used in main steam and feed-water service throughout the world
Stainless steel spacer rings on gate valves, fitted between Simplifies service; damaged valve seats can be restored to factory fit by
wedge halves in-line replacement with slightly thicker ring

Unique two-piece, flexible wedges on gate valves Automatically adjusts to any angular distortion of body seats; shape provides
greater flexibility; ensures dependable sealing and prevents sticking
Allows workers to generate several thousand foot-pounds of torque, thus
Impactor handwheels and handles
ensuring tight shutoff of manually operated globe and angle valves
Inclined-bonnet globe valves with streamlined flow passages Minimizes pressure drop due to flow
Globe valves available with both vertical and inclined stems Provides stem designs suited to any installation
Live-loaded pressure energized PressurSeat ® for globe valves Globe valve design for high pressure drain and vent service
