Valves High Pressure Multi Purpose Ball Valves

Features
• High flow in a compact design.
• High pressure capacity designed for blow-out proof with internally loaded ball stem.
• Micro-finished ball provides a positive seal.
• 90 degree actuation for 2-way and 180 degree actuation for 3-way ball valves.
• Panel mounting as standard.
• Chevron stem seal, adjustable with the handle disassembled.
• Handle indicates flow direction.
• Low operating torques and positive handle stops.
• Optional pneumatic actuation.

• Wetted parts and lubricants are listed in blue.
• Lubricant is Fluorinated-based.

Operation and Packing Adjustment

• VH86 valves are designed to control fluid in full open and closed position, using VH86 valves to throttle the flow may reduce the
valve life.
• Stem packing can be adjustable with the handle disassembled. Tighten packing bolt clockwise to tighten the stem packing.
• Valves that have not been actuated for a period of time may have a higher initial actuation torque.
• If the valve system needs to be tested at higher pressure than the valve maximum pressure, the valve must be in open position
during the test so as not to damage the valve seat.
• Optional Sour Gas Service applicable.

Application
VH86 series ball valve offers a safe and reliable performance in a wide range of onshore and offshore applications: Water, oil, gas,
petrochemical in heavy duty applications.

Factory Test, Cleaning and Packaging

• Every valve is factory tested with nitrogen gas at 1,000 psig (68.9 bar) for leakage at seat to a maximum allowable leak rate of
0.1 SCCM. The packing is tested with nitrogen gas for no detectable leakage.
• Every valve is cleaned and packaged in accordance with DK cleaning standard DC-01.

Safe Valve Selection

The selection of a valve for any application or system design must be considered to ensure safe performance. Valve function, valve
rating, material compatibility, proper installation, operation and maintenance remain the sole responsibillty of the system designer
and the user. DK-Lok accepts no liability for any improper selection, installation, operation or maintenance.
