High Performance For Critical Service

Temperatures that can exceed 1000° F. Pressures surpassing10,000 psi. In critical service conditions, you can’t take chances.You don’t just meet standards, you exceed them. That’s howEdward forged and cast steel valves have become the specifiedchoice for power plants, process facilities, and other high-temperature, high-pressure services.

Conservative DesignEdward Valves takes a conserv-ative approach to valve design.We meet all applicable codesand standards, but we gobeyond that...with finite elementstress analysis of critical areasand rigorous proof testing.Edward valves are built to takepunishment!

And our extensive testing hasalso allowed us to developextremely high flow efficienciesin all our valves.

You’ll find other unique designadvantages on our variousproduct lines, such as ourEquiwedge gate valves, with atwo-piece wedge gate assemblywhich adjusts automatically toany angular distortion of thebody seats. And many otherdesign features, now con-sidered industry “standards,”started on the drawing boardsat Edward Valves.

Precision ManufacturingEdward Valves also exceedsindustry standards on the fac-tory floor. Our forged valves areproduced on a fully automatedline, with CNC machining cen-ters providing precise processcontrol. And we maximize caststeel quality by producing ourvalve body castings using adirectional solidification processfrom patterns designed by ourown technicians. This processassures high strength void freecastings for uncompromisedquality.

Even with the most advancedequipment, we feel our peoplemake the real difference atEdward Valves. Our productionpersonnel have an average 20years in the industry, and 15years with Edward Valves! This exceptional experiencelevel allows us to achieve anextra degree of precision thatcan make a very real differencein the field.

Finally, it’s our people, alongwith our procedures for qualityassurance and lot-traceability,that have earned Edward Valvesthe ASME N stamp, certifying ourRaleigh, North Carolina, manu-facturing facility for nuclear-ser-vice valve production.

Lower Total CostsThose tough standards havecarried over into every valve wemanufacture. Whether it is fornuclear service or not, wedesign and build our valves tolast at least 40 years. Thatmeans not only are they tough,but they are designed with easymaintenance in mind.

Considering the cost of valvefailure, Edward Valves quality isclearly worth specifying. That’sbeen true since 1904, when thefirst Edward valve was made.Today, as industrial companiesbecome increasingly aware thatoperating expenses are part oftotal cost, the choice becomesboth more clear and more criti-cal than ever.

Designed With An Eye On Your Bottom Line

In-house computer-aided design andfinite-element method capabilities giveour engineering staff powerful tools todevelop reliable valves for critical serviceapplications. CAD generated graphicmodels undergo FEM analysis to deter-mine that stresses are within acceptablelimits. Dynamic simulation of valve opera-tion also helps assure reliability ofEdward valve performance.

Prototyping is just as important, and rig-orous proof testing is a mainstay ofEdward valve design. Before we approvea valve for production, we put it throughhundreds, even thousands, of cycles todemonstrate that performance and seal-ing integrity will be maintained in service.Transducers relay data from test assem-blies to computers for further analysis.

Laboratory simulation of critical servicesincludes a steam generator and super-heater, designed for 2700 psi and 1050°F. This flexible system allows testing ofprototype valves under both low pressureand high pressure conditions. In addition

to prototype testing, this system hasbeen used for applications such as:friction and wear tests of valve trimmaterials in hot water and steam environments; qualification tests of new or redesigned valves; and prooftesting of new valve gaskets and valvestem packings.

Before we make the first production unit,that valve has already been through arigorous program to assure long life,simple maintenance, and dependableperformance, for the lowest cost over thelife of the valve. Again, people playimportant roles in design. The Edwardproduct engineering department poolswell over 200 years of valve experience.

Testing Beyond Code Requirements

At Edward Valves, quality assurancestarts with meeting code requirements.Valves are manufactured to ANSI B16.34(Standard, Limited and Special Classes),including standards for:

•Minimum wall thickness of valve body.•Body, bonnet and body-bonnet boltingto specified ASTM material standards.

•Hydrostatic shell testing at 1.5 times the100° F rating of the valve.

From there, Edward Valves goes on toexceed the code, with higher test stan-dards and an additional battery of testsperformed on every type of valve wemake, using in-house test facilities andpersonnel to assure expert quality con-trol. Edward Valves’ quality assuranceprogram includes:

Non-Destructive Examination•All NDE personnel are qualified inaccordance with ASNT-TC-1A guidelines.

•All castings are visually examined perMSS SP-55.

•The first five body castings from everypattern are 100% radiographed to verifycasting quality.

Hydrostatic Testing•The seat-leakage criteria no visibleleakage for forged steel and 2ml/hour/inch of nominal valve size for caststeel are stricter than the allowedleakage rate of MSS SP-61, which is10ml/hour/inch of nominal valve size.

•Seat-leakage test is performed at 110%of 100° F rating.

Statistical Process ControlRequirements are clearly stated andmeasurements are taken to determineconformance to those requirements.“Quality” equals conformance to require-ments.

WeldingAll personnel and procedures are quali-fied in accordance with ASME Boiler andPressure Vessel Code, Section IX.

Additional Standard Tests for Specific ValvesIncludes heavy-wall examination on largebody castings.

We have only listed a few of EdwardValves’ standard tests that exceed industry requirements. Also, EdwardValves has the facilities and the expertise to meet additional quality-assurance standards, as required for the application.

Edward Forged Steel Valves Feature Body-Guided DisksTo Prevent Side-Thrust and Eliminate – 1. Stem galling & binding 2. Disk-seat misalignment and damage 3. High operating torque

Valve disks are guided by rings that fit snugly within the body bore andassure perfect disk-and-seat alignment despite the side thrust of modernhigh velocities and high pressure-differentials. This protects the stemand its contact points; eliminates galling, scoring, bending and the highoperating torque resulting from these abuses. Because they eliminatedisk wobble and assure alignment of disk with seat, they also assuremore dependable closing and longer disk, seat and body life.

Double Duty for Lower Bearing - The lower ring not only serves as ahighly efficient anti-side thrust bearing but serves too, as a “flow direc-tor.” Its snug fit within the bonnet bore reduces by 90% the amount offlow that can get into the bonnet cavity and exert thrust forces againstthe side of the disk. In short, the anti-thrust ring design diverts 90% of theline forces into controllable channels.

Machining Important,Too - To assure concentric alignment essential totight seating, the body bore and the stellite seat are both machined in asingle operation. The disk’s anti-thrust rings and conical stellite seat faceare also faced in a single operation.

Streamlined Flow Passages for Highest CV Values - The inclined bon-net globe stop valves (and check and stop-check valves) continue theEdward reputation for the ultimate in flow passage streamlining. Inclinedbonnet construction minimizes flow directional changes and minimizeswear caused by excessive turbulence.

Whether it’s pounds per hour of steam or gallons per minute of liquid, theinclined bonnet valves give you better flow capacity.

Flow Under or Over Disk - Normal practice is to install globe valves withflow entering from below the disk. However, piping designers may confi-dently install Edward globe stop valves with flow entering over the diskwhen space problems or other considerations suggest this procedure.Our valves operate equally well with flow in either direction; however,with flow over the disk, packing is under pressure when the valve isclosed and there is a slight penality in CV value.

B

Figure 1 - Ordinary Vertical Stem Globe Valves aresubject to side-thrust under high pressure drop con-ditions. Illustration shows how upstream pressurecan slip past stem-guided disk and impart a thrusttoward the downstream side of the valve. Testshave proven that this thrust causes disk-seat mis-alignment plus galling and scoring.

Figure 2 - Inclined Stem Globe Valves of the stem-guided type are also subject to side-thrust underthe same conditions. Illustration above shows pathpressure through the valve.

Figure 3 - This illustration shows the Edward body-guided disk with anti-thrust rings. Lower guide elimi-nates 90% of the flow upward and behind the disk.Both guide rings maintain perfect alignment. Thiseffectively eliminates all side-thrust problems.

Figure 5 - Graph illustrates typical throttling curves for conven-tional stem-guided Globe Valve and Univalve. Note, theUnivalve Curve illustrates that finest control is obtained at lowlifts, when it is needed. Contrast this with conventional valvecurve which shows rapid flow increase as disk lifts off seat.

Figure 4 - Graph illustrates relationship of side-thrust in conven-tional stem-guided Globe Valve and in Edward Univalve withbody-guided disk.

Features and Description of Edward Stop-Check (Non-Return) Valves

C

Edward stop-check (non-return) valvesoffer the same tight-sealing performanceas Edward stop valves, and at the sametime, give check valve protection in theevent of fluid back flow. Edward stop-checkvalves are commonly used to prevent backflow from a header fed from two or moresources when there is a loss of pressure inone of the sources for example, the boil-er outlet to a common header or at thefeedwater heater outlets.

Elbow Down

Flite-Flow®

Angle

Globe

EqualizerAll Edward cast steel stop-check valves are equipped with an Equalizer pipe.Acting as an external pressure balancing pipeline, the Equalizer connects thezone above the disk with the lower pressure area in the valve outlet (see drawingabove). This reduces pressure above the disk, and as a result, causes the higherpressure below the disk to raise the disk to full lift. The Equalizer helps reducepressure drop and disk-piston movement and wear.

All other features are the same as those defined on page C-2 for stop valves.

Features and Descriptions of Edward One-Piece Tilting Disk Check Valves

C

The Edward tilting disk check valve isdesigned to close as quickly as possible.It minimizes loud, damaging slammingand vibration noises caused when highvelocity reverse flow is allowed to buildup before the completion of closing.

Quick ClosingQuick closing is achieved through a com-bination of several design constructionfeatures. The disk is dome shaped toavoid hesitation of disk motion or closing,common to conventional flat disks. Forminimum pendulum period an impor-tant factor in assuring quick closing the disk pivot is located close to the cen-ter of gravity of the disk.

All disk surfaces are open to line fluid, sothat no dashpot action can delay closing.The disk pivots on pin supports havingchrome-plated bearings for minimumfriction. Totally enclosed torsion springsin the pivot pins help speed the closingaction, although the disk is counter-weighted sufficiently to close automati-cally without aid from the springswhether the valve is in a vertical or hori-zontal position. Since the springs arefully enclosed in the pins, they are notsubject to possible erosive effects of linefluids are foreign matter cannot get in.There is no bolting in the flow stream.

Adjustable Hinge PinsAvailable factory-installed or as a con-version kit, Edward’s unique adjustablehinge pin replaces the usual concentrichinge pins with double offset eccentrichinge pins, making core alignment amatter of simply dialing in the fit.

1. Cover retainer provides loading through thecover retainer and bolting to initiate a seal at thepressure seal gasket.

2. Cover is precision machined to retain pressureintegrity and critical gasket seating surfaces.

3. Composite pressure seal gasket is a pre-loaded pressure energized flexible graphite com-posite for long reliable service.

4. Integral hardsurfaced seats, both body anddisk, provide positive shutoff and long seat life.

5. Springs insure quick closing of the disk by pro-viding a positive seating force to speed closing.

6. Hinge pin provides a disk pivot point close to itscenter of gravity for fast response to flow reversalswhich minimizes water hammer effects.

7. Hinge pin gasket is spiral wound, coated steel,or flexible graphite for long reliable service.

8. Body features a straight thru compact design forlow pressure drop.

9. Disk assembly is dome shaped and counter-weighted for fast response to flow reversals.

Features and Description of Edward Equiwedge Gate Valves

Unique 2-Piece Flexible WedgeWedging action provides tight seatsealing, even at low differential pres-sures. Wedge guiding by grooves inbody minimizes seat wear and dam-age, since seating surfaces ofwedge and body are in contact overless than 5% of total travel. Two sep-arate flexible wedge halves are freeto align with seats even when theyare tilted or rotated due to thermaleffects or piping loads. Resistance tothermal binding assures openingwith a torque or load less than designclosing load.

Wedge guide area and strength pro-vides capability to support high dif-ferential pressures with valve partial-ly open, so Equiwedge gate valvescan be opened or closed under“blowdown” conditions. By-passesare not required if full differential isspecified for actuator sizing.

C

Figure 1The outstanding design feature of theEquiwedge gate valve is unique two-piece wedge that permits maximumindependence and flexibility for goodsealability and freedom from sticking.

Some valve designs are capable of sealingsimultaneously against a pressure differentialbetween an internal cavity of the valve and theadjacent pipe in both directions. All doubleseated gate valves, including Equiwedge, areexample of such a design. In fact, seat jointintegrity for these valves is tested in the facto-ry by pressurizing the center cavity and simul-taneously examining each seat. However, if afluid is entrapped in such a valve while closed,and then subsequently heated, a dangerousrise in pressure can result thus leading to pres-sure boundary failure.

Both ASME/ANSI B16.34 (Valves - Flanged,Threaded and Welding End), para 2.3.3 andANSI/ASME B31.1 (Pressure Piping Code),para 107.1(c), recognize this situation andrequire that the Purchaser shall provide means

in design, installation and/or operation toassure that the pressure in the valve shall notexceed the rated pressure for the attainedtemperature. Therefore, if deemed necessaryby the Purchaser, and so specified in the pur-chase order, Edward Valves can provide anequalizer system (internal or external) that willrelieve this trapped fluid to the upstream pipingor a relief valve that will exhaust excessivepressure to some other specified area. Itshould be understood that an internal or exter-nal equalizer will change a basically by-direc-tional gate valve to a design with fully effectiveseat sealing in only one direction. The equaliz-er bypasses the upstream seat and wouldallow leakage by that seat if the pressureshould be reversed. The “downstream” seatwould become the “upstream” seat with pres-sure reversed; the wedging action provided by

stem load provides good upstream seat seal-ing at low to moderate pressures, but leakagecould be excessive at high pressures.

Excessive pressure trapped in the center cav-ity of a gate valve can also produce “pressurelocking” a condition that can make openingdifficult or impossible. Either an internal or anexternal equalizer will prevent pressure lock-ing. However, a relief valve may allow the cen-ter cavity pressure to be higher than either theupstream or downstream pressure, and thiscan allow pressure locking to occur. Edward’sunique ACCEV (Automation Center CavityEqualizing Valve) can alleviate this problem.Refer to section F, page F4 for additional infor-mation.

Edward Throttle Valves

Edward standard cast steel valves with the body-guided feature have excel-lent ability to handle flow at high pressure differentials. However, forimproved accuracy, cast globe and angle stop valves can be equipped with aspecial throttle disk. Disk shape provides good regulation over wide rangesof flow. When required, valves equipped with a throttle disk may also beordered with a motor operator. Edward cast stop valves equipped with athrottle disk are identified by adding the suffix “K” to the standard valve figure number.

Comparison Curves Of TypicalStandard Disk With ThrottleDisk

The standard stop valve disk gives rapidincreases in flow for each increment of liftat low lifts and small increases in flow athigher lifts. This is not desirable in manyapplications where the valve is used forcontrolling flow rate. The conical projectionon the throttle disk gives straight line con-trol at the lower lifts as long as it remainsin the seat. Once the cone lifts entirely outof the seat it permits high capacity at highlifts with only moderate pressure droppenalty.

For check or stop-check applications with a broad range offlow conditions, a “skirted” disk,identified by adding the suffix “K” tothe valve figure number may pro-vide the required minimum lift atlow flow while providing acceptablepressure drop at maximum flow.Specifically, the illustrated disk witha Mini-Skirt provides good low-flowperformance while reducing CV byonly 10%. See Edward TechnicalArticle V-Rep 92-1 for assistanceon high turndown applications.

Features and Descriptions of Edward Hermavalve Hermetically-Sealed Valves

D

1. Position indicator shows whether the valve is open or closed.

2. Handwheel is rugged and knobbed to permit sure grip even whenwearing gloves.

3. Needle thrust bearings minimize torque. Their upper yoke locationprotects from heat and allows lubrication.

4. Yoke bushing. Revolving bushing of aluminum bronze material haslow coefficient of friction, substantially reduces torque, stem wear andeliminates galling.

5. Non-revolving stem is stainless steel. It is ground to a fine finishand keyed to the yoke to prevent rotation and torsional stress on thediaphragm.

6. Yoke of carbon steel.

7. Diaphragm disk is a unique patented shape which maximizesdiaphragm life.

8. Diaphragm of multi-ply flexible metal provides a reliable primarystem seal.

9. Body with inclined stem construction and unique flow shape mini-mizes flow directional changes and cuts pressure drop.

10. Integral hardfaced seat of hard, heat resistant hardfacing materialis integrally welded to the body.

11. Solid Stellite disk assures maximum seating life.

12. Disk guide assembly assures disk/seat alignment. Its completelyencapsulated spring assures full disk life.

13. Diaphragm seal weld is a unique seal weld which makes thediaphragm an integral part of the bonnet and eliminates a potentialleak path past the stem.

14. Backseat provides a secondary stem seal backup.

15. Body-bonnet seal features leak-proof seal-welded construction.The weld is for seal only; the threaded section carries the pressureload. Canopy weld in stainless steel; fillet weld in carbon steel.16.Bonnet is barstock steel with gall-resistant ACME threads to insureeasy disassembly from body.

16. Bonnet is barstock steel with gall-resistant Acme threads to insureeasy disassembly from body.

17. Backup packing with O.S. & Y. design allows for inspection oraddition of packing without disassembling valve.

18. Adjustable gland screws with O.S. & Y. design allow for easyaccess to packing adjustment if necessary.

What is a Hermavalve? A Hermavalve is a hermetically sealed valvethat cannot leak to the environment. The Edward Hermavalve cannotleak because it is double seal welded:

1. The multi-ply flexible metal diaphragm is seal welded to the bonnet.

2. The body-to-bonnet joint is also seal welded.

This patented construction eliminates any potential leakage through amechanical joint. It is more than just packless, it is hermetically sealed.

Zero leakage to environment Welded, heretic design and depend-able metal diaphragm help to insure zero leakage for the life of thevalve. In approved services the valve is warranted against leakage tothe environment.

High efficiency flow-shape Unique flow shape assures high CV

comparable to or greater than conventionally packed valves provenby extensive flow testing.

Non-revolving stem design Assures lowest possible operatingtorque and is the only absolute method of avoiding diaphragm damagecaused by rotational forces from a revolving stem.

Two backup stem seals 1) Packing and 2) backseat provideredundancy in backup seals.

Edward Forged and Cast Steel Valves for Nuclear Service

E

From the beginning of commercial nuclearpower production, Edward valves havebeen used successfully in many of themost difficult applications. The Shipping-port plant went on line in 1957 with specialsize 18 Edward stainless steel tilting diskcheck valves in its primary coolant system.It also incorporated numerous smallEdward capped manual valves. Other “firstgeneration” commercial nuclear plants arestill in operation with a broad variety ofEdward forged and cast steel valves.

Through the evolution of the pressurizedwater reactor (PWR), the boiling waterreactor (BWR), and even the liquid metalfast breeder reactors (LMFBR), Edwardpeople have been involved in meeting themost difficult challenges. This experiencein engineering, manufacturing, and qualityassurance provides an excellent basis forsupplying superior valves for nuclear ser-vice in new construction, retrofit, and lifeextension work.

A major Edward nuclear niche has beenthe main steam and feedwater isolationmarket (MSIVs and MFIVs). These safetyrelated valves must close rapidly, typicallyin 3 to 5 seconds, to prevent major leak-age in the event of a pipe rupture. SpecialEdward Flite-Flow valves with air/springactuators were used in PWRs until theEdward Equiwedge gate valve and storedenergy actuator were developed in the late1970s. Edward Equiwedge MSIVs and

MFIVs with stored energy actuators arenow in service on three continents inPWRs and in steam service in an LMFBR.

Other critical nuclear applications areserved by Edward check and stop-checkvalves, some with special features. EdwardValves provides comprehensive applicationengineering data (see Technical Section) tosupport these valves, helping to avoidmany of the problems which have occurredwith other check valves in nuclear powerplants.

In addition, thousands of small Edwardforged steel valves are widely used inmany nuclear plant applications thatdemand high reliability. Some have hand-wheels, some have electric motor actua-tors, and some have pneumatic actuators,but all are designed and built to nuclearstandards. Univalves and Bolted Bonnetvalves provide excellent service in mostapplications, and Hermavalves are avail-able for applications where the risk ofexternal leakage is unacceptable.

Since there was 50 years of Edward powerplant valve experience before the firstnuclear plants were built, Edward was wellprepared for the new challenges. Now, withover 30 years of nuclear valve experience.Edward Valves is even better prepared forthe challenges of the future.

Features and Description of Edward Hermavalve

Hermetically-Sealed Valves

1. Position indicator shows whether the valve is open or closed.

2. Handwheel is rugged and knobbed to permit sure grip even whenwearing gloves.

3. Needle thrust bearings minimize torque. Their upper yoke locationprotects from heat and allows lubrication.

4. Yoke bushing. Revolving busing of aluminum bronze material haslow coefficient of friction, substantially reduces torque, stem wear andeliminates galling.

5. Non-revolving stem is stainless steel. it is ground to a fine finishand keyed to the yoke to prevent rotation and torsional stress on thediaphragm.

6. Yoke of carbon steel is electroless nickel plated for corrosion resistance.

7. Diaphragm disk is a unique patented shape which maximizesdiaphragm life.

8. Diaphragm of multi-ply flexible metal provides a reliable primarystem seal.

9. Body with inclined stem construction and unique flow shape minimizes flow directional changes and cuts pressure drop.

10. Integral hardfaced seat of hard, heat resistant hardfacing materialis integrally welded to the body.

11. Solid Stellite disk assures maximum seating life.

12. Disk guide assembly assures disk/seat alignment. Its completelyencapsulated spring assures full disk lift.

13. Diaphragm seal weld is a unique seal weld which makes thediaphragm an integral part of the bonnet and eliminates a potentialleak path past the stem.

14. Backseat provides a secondary stem seal backup.

15. Body-bonnet seal features leak-proof seal-welded construction.The weld is for seal only; the threaded section carries the pressureload. Canopy weld in stainless steel; fillet weld in carbon steel.

16. Bonnet is barstock steel with gall-resistant ACME threads to insureeasy disassembly from body.

17. Backup packing with OS & Y design allows for inspection or addition of packing without disassembling valve.

18. Adjustable gland screws with OS & Y design allow for easyaccess to packing adjustment if necessary.

What is a Hermavalve? A Hermavalve is a hermetically sealed valvethat cannot leak to the environment. The Edward Hermavalve cannotleak because it is double seal welded:

1. The multi-ply flexible metal diaphragm is seal welded to the bonnet.

2. The body-to-bonnet joint is also seal welded.

This patented construction eliminates any potential leakage through amechanical joint. It is more than just packless, it is hermetically sealed.

Zero leakage to environment Welded, hermetic design anddependable metal diaphragm help to insure zero leakage for the life ofthe valve. In approved services the valve is warranted against leakageto the environment.

High efficiency flow-shape Unique flow shape assures high CV

comparable to or greater that conventionally packed valves provenby extensive flow testing.

Non-revolving stem design Assures lowest possible operatingtorque and is the only absolute method of avoiding diaphragm damagecaused by rotational forces from a revolving stem.

Two backup stem seals 1) Packing and 2) backseat provide backup seals.

Controlled Closure Check Valve

E

Standard Features• Minimizes water hammer effects

on postulated feedwater linebreak.

• Computerized modeling verifiedby dynamic testing.

The Edward Controlled Closure Check Valve was developed and qualified to serve a function that no other previouscheck valve could handle. If a feedwater line should rupture in a nuclear power plant, the reversed flow from thereactor or steam generator out of the containment boundary must be contained. Conventional check valves wouldclose rapidly, but not fast enough to prevent high reverse flow velocity; closure of the conventional valve would pro-duce severe pressure surges due to water hammer possibly severe enough to produce rupture of other piping orequipment.

The Controlled Closure Check Valve is much like a Flite-Flow piston lift check valve, but it has an integral “dashpot” a plate with a close-clearance fit around the rod connecting the disk and piston. Flow paths sized for individualapplications limit the flow out of the dashpot and consequently control the valve closing speed. See pg. G-17/G-19for a discussion of water hammer and a comparison of the controlled closure check valve with other types.

Soft SeatsThis option is available for both Forged and CastSteel Globe and Check Valves on a limited basis. The disk face can be fitted with a soft seat or insertwhen drop tight sealing is a must. However, somelimitations (temperature, differential pressure, radia-tion) may apply. Consult your Edward Valves repre-sentative for more information.

Washout ConnectionsEdward Cast Steel Valves can be fitted with specialcovers that incorporate a pipe nipple to be used as awashout connection to introduce cleaning solutionsetc. for pipeline flushing.

Automatic Center Cavity EqualizingValve (ACCEV)The Edward ACCEV automatically relieves increasingcenter cavity pressure to the higher pressure end ofthe valve, while preventing leakage to the lower pres-sure end, solving pressure locking and bonnet over-pressurization problems which can occur in double-seated valves. The internal spring gives preferentialconnection to the designated upstream end of thevalve. When system conditions result in the down-stream pressure being higher than the upstream, theball shifts so that the center cavity connects with thedownstream end of the valve. The Edward ACCEV

meets or exceeds MSS SP-61 for tight shutoff in bothdirections. When furnished on an Edward Equiwedgegate valve, all of the necessary connections are madeto the host valve and hydro-tested in our factory. Nopiping connections or testing are required by the user.The Edward ACCEV is available as a kit with neces-sary piping to be field installed on any existingEdward or other manufacturer’s valve, and can bereadily dissassembled and repaired in-line in theevent any maintenance is required. The EdwardACCEV is available in a commercial B16.34 versionfor general service and also in an ASME Section IIIN-Stamp version for nuclear applications.

1.1 Stop Valve Applications

ForewordEdward stop valves are used primarily as isolationvalves in medium and high pressure piping systems.They are offered in a broad range of sizes, pressureratings, and types, and they are used in an immensearray of diverse applications. Only a few are listed forillustration:

• Normally open valves in main steam lines; usedonly for equipment isolation, e.g. during mainte-nance.

• Normally open valves to provide for emergencyshutoff due to failure of downstream piping or otherequipment; closed periodically for verification ofoperability.

• Normally open valves that are throttled to varyingdegrees during start-up or shutdown of plants or sys-tems.

• Frequently cycled valves that are opened andclosed for control of batch processes or for start-upand shutdown of equipment (e.g., equipment that ison-stream daily but shut-down at night).

• Normally closed valves; used only for filling ordraining systems during outages.

Stop valves are sometimes referred to as “on-offvalves.” They should not normally be considered as“control valves,” but they are suitable for moderate orinfrequent flow-control functions. Valves that mustopen and close under high differential pressure andflow conditions (such as “blowdown” service) inher-ently function as flow-control devices while they arestroking.

Considering the diversity of stop valve applications, itis not surprising that there is no universal valve typethat is best for all services. Users’ experience withspecific applications is a valuable basis for selectingthe best valves.

The goal of this guide is to supplement users’ experi-ence with information based on decades of EdwardValves’ laboratory tests and field experience.

IntroductionWhile many other types of valves (ball, plug, butter-fly) are used as stop valves where service conditionspermit, emphasis in this guide is on selection andapplication of Edward valves with forged- and cast-steel bodies and bonnets. Comparisons are present-ed with other similar valves where appropriate.

Edward stop valves are typically of metal-seated con-struction and, where necessary, use gaskets and stemseals designed for severe high-pressure, high-tem-perature service. While special designs with “softseats” and O-ring seals are supplied for unique spe-cific applications, the standard products are designedto stand up to tough service conditions with mini-mum requirements for maintenance or parts replace-ment.

Edward stop valves fall into two basic categories –globe valves and gate valves. The following sec-tions of this guide will address the principal featuresof each type and the design variations within thetypes.

Globe valves are offered in stop, stop-check, andcheck versions. Stop-check valves can also be usedfor isolation in unidirectional flow applications.These valves are discussed in the Check ValvesApplications section (1.2).

The FLOW PERFORMANCE section of this catalogprovides equations and coefficients for the calcula-tion of pressure drop across any of these valves. Thisinformation can be used to evaluate the effects of dif-ferent valve sizes and types on system energy effi-ciency.

Brief notes on the advantages, disadvantages, appli-cations and limitations of the various types of Edwardstop valves are presented in the Stop ValveApplications Chart (section 1.1.4). Some additionalhighlights of the features of these valves and somecomparisons with similar valves are presented in thefollowing paragraphs.

Globe ValvesA globe valve employs a poppet or disk that opensand closes by moving linearly along the seat axis.There are many types of globe valve bodies, seats andmethods of guiding the disk to and from the seat.

• Bodies –Edward stop, stop-check and check typeglobe valves are offered with three basic body styles:

Conventional or 90°-bonnet globe valves areusually the most compact, and the stem and yokeposition allow easy handwheel or actuator access andconvenience for maintenance. Relatively short stemtravel allows fast actuation. Multiple directionchanges in the flow stream result in higher pressuredrop than with other types, but streamlined flow pas-sages in Edward valves generally yield lower pressuredrop than competitive valves of this type.

Angle valves are otherwise similar to conventional

globe valves, but the less tortuous flow path yieldslower pressure drop. Angle valves are particularlyeconomical in piping layouts where use of this con-figuration eliminates an elbow and associated flangedor welded joints.

Inclined bonnet or “Y type” valves, such asUnivalves® and Flite-Flow® valves, yield lowerpressure drop than other styles, because they permita more nearly straight-through flow path. Typically,they require a longer stem travel. In large sizes, thisbody shape is heavier and requires a greater end-to-end length than conventional globe valves.

1.1 Stop Valve Applications Guide (con’t.)

• Seats – Industrial globe valves are available fromvarious manufacturers with a broad variety of seatdesigns — flat or tapered, and integral or inserted(threaded or welded).

All Edward globe valves employ tapered seats with“area contact” under load to seal over minor imper-fections. Many similar valves use “line-contact” seatsthat seal with less load when new but degrade rapid-ly if damaged at the seating line.

Except for hydraulic stop valves, all Edward globevalves employ integral (hardfaced) body seats to per-mit compact design and assure that there can be noleakage “behind” the seat.

• Disk Guiding – Globe valve disks may be guidedby either the stem or the body. When opened orclosed under very high differential pressure, side loaddue to flow pushes a stem-guided disk eccentric tothe seat and makes it difficult to obtain a seal. Underextreme conditions, the stem may bend.

All Edward globe valves employ body guided diskswhich are held closely concentric with the body seat.Guiding is provided at both the top and bottom of thedisk to form a fully body-guided disk piston. The bot-tom guide ring on the disk, and Edward innovation,minimizes flow behind the disk and minimizes theside load. These features make Edward globe valveswell suited to “blowdown” applications in which thereis a high differential pressure across the valve when itis partially open.

Since globe valves are not symmetrical with respectto flow, consideration must be given to the directionof flow and differential pressure. It should be notedthat the direction of flow when open and differentialpressure when closed may not be the same in allapplications (e.g., a block valve on a feed line mayinvolve flow into a system when open but may needto prevent leakage out of the system when closed).Users should consider both factors when deciding onthe installation direction for a globe valve.

In most globe valve applications, pressure is underthe seat when the valve is closed, and the flow is fromunder to over the seat (termed “flow to open” or“underseat flow”). In installations where the down-stream pressure is zero or very low, this arrangementminimizes packing leakage problems. However,handwheel or actuator effort to close the valve is high,because the stem must supply enough load to bothovercome the differential pressure load across theseat area and ensure sufficient sealing load on themetal seat-contact surfaces. Since this flow directionis the most common for globe valves, the flow coeffi-cients given in the Flow Performance section of thiscatalog are for underseat flow.

Globe valves can also be used with overseat flow andpressure (“flow to close”), but such applicationsrequire careful consideration. In systems with dirtyline fluids, this arrangement could lead to trappingforeign material in locations where it would interferewith opening. With overseat pressure, the effort toclose the valve is low, because closure and sealingare pressure-assisted. However, the effort to open thevalve at high differential pressure is high, because thestem must overcome the pressure force to lift the disk(in small valves, the stem diameters approaching theseat diameter, this may not be a problem, because thepressure helps to lift the stem). Also, since the flowcoefficients given in this catalog are for underseatflow, pressure-drop predictions may not be as accu-rate (pressure drop may be up to 10% higher withoverseat flow).

While not designed as control valves and not recom-mended for continuous modulation, Edward globevalves are often used successfully for manual or auto-matic control during limited periods of system oper-ation (start-up, shutdown, etc.). Some manual valvesare also used for continuous throttling or “trimming.”Inclined-bonnet valves, (e.g., Univalves® and Flite-Flow® valves) have an approximately linear flowcharacteristic (CV versus % open).

The Flow Performance section of this catalog coversonly flow coefficients for fully open valves, but con-

sult Edward Valves concerning applications involvingflow control. It should be understood that severethrottling at high pressure drops involves high ener-gy dissipation, and serious problems (e.g., noise,vibration, cavitation, erosion) can develop if not care-fully considered when a system is designed.

Gate ValvesA gate valve employs a closure member (or assem-bly) that opens and closes by moving perpendicularto the flow stream to engage two seats in the body.There are two basically different types of gate valves– parallel-side and wedge gate – in common use inpressure-piping systems, but there are many varia-tions in design within each type.

As compared to glove valves, all gate valves offerstraight-through flow paths which tend to produceless pressure drop than typical globe valves of thesame nominal size. A Venturi gate valve with a small-er port than a Regular gate valve may offer a lowerfirst cost as well as a size and weight saving if a min-imized pressure drop is not required.

The Flow Performance section of this catalog givescomparable flow coefficients for Edward Equiwedge®gate valves and all Edward globe stop valves.Evaluation of many valve applications has shown thatinclined-bonnet globe valves are often competitivewith gate valves when all factors are considered.

The stem in a gate valve does not have to overcomethe full differential pressure load across the valve seatarea to open or close the valve. Instead, it just has toovercome the friction force due to that load.Consequently, for operation at similar differentialpressures, a gate valve generally requires less effortfor actuation than a globe valve and can employ asmaller actuator when powered operation is required.However, a gate valve requires considerably greaterstem travel than a conventional globe or angle valve(slightly greater than an inclined-bonnet globe valve),so a somewhat longer time may be required foraction.

The two body seats – the common feature in all ordi-nary gate valves – can be both an advantage and adisadvantage. Most gate valves are primarily “down-stream-sealing,” because the closure member ispressure-energized in that direction. However, theupstream seating surfaces may help by limiting leakage if the downstream seat is damaged.Simultaneous sealing at both seats can be hazardousif the center cavity of a closed valve is filled or par-tially filled with liquid and then subjected to anincrease in temperature, causing a correspondingincrease in pressure. In moderate cases, this maycause “pressure binding” which can impede or pre-vent valve opening; in extreme cases, it may causepressure-boundary failure (e.g., the bonnet couldblow off).

Note: ASME/ANSI B16.34-1988 (paragraph2.3.3) places the responsibility of the pur-chaser to assure that the pressure in the valvewill not exceed that allowed by the standard.Special operating procedures, such as par-tially opening a valve during warm-up, maybe considered. Special internal design fea-tures or external bypass arrangements are required in many applications. ConsultEdward Valves regarding EdwardEquiwedge® gate valve applications that maybe subject to possible center-cavity over-pressurization.

Some highlights of the various types of gate valves,including the Edward Equiwedge, are discussedbelow:

• Parallel-Slide Gate ValvesEdward does not offer parallel-slide valves. In thesevalves, the two seats in the body are in parallelplanes, and an assembly including two gates withparallel seating faces moves into or out of engage-ment with the body seats. The gates are urged intocontact with the opposing seats in the closed positionby either a spring (or a set of springs) or an internalwedge mechanism.

Since the two gates are relatively independent, thedownstream gate is free to align with the downstreamseat, and new valves usually seal well so long as thedifferential pressure across the valve is sufficient toprovide adequate seating load. Leakage may be aproblem with these valves at low differential pres-sures (e.g. when filling a system or during low-pres-sure start-up operation).

In typical parallel-slide valves, there is continuoussliding contact between the sealing surfaces of thegates and body seats throughout the full stem stroke.Wearing or scoring is possible, particularly when

operating with high differential pressures, and thismay cause seat sealing to be degraded. This shearingaction may be helpful in cleaning loose debris fromthe seats, however.

• Wedge Gate ValvesA wedge gate valve uses one of the oldest engineer-ing principles to provide mechanical advantage toconvert stem load to seat-sealing load. This is partic-ularly important in low-pressure applications wheredifferential pressure alone may not provide sufficientloading on the downstream seat.

Early wedge gate valves forlow pressure employed solidwedges, and these are stillused in many small high-pressure gate valves.However, as industrial valverequirements moved towardlarger sizes and higher pres-sures and temperatures, asolid wedge designed to pro-vide sufficient strengthbecame too rigid to accom-modate the flexibility of thevalve body. The seat planesdeflect significantly in large,high-pressure valve bodiesdue to thermal effects and theloads from connecting pip-ing, and a rigid wedge may

either leak or bind in the closed position.

Many gate valves have been designed with “flexible”one-piece wedges that have overcome these prob-lems to some degree, but the two halves of the wedgeare not truly independent and free to align with thetwo opposing body seats. It is particularly difficult toprovide torsional flexibility in the wedge to accom-modate twist in the valve body.

Consequently, the Edward Equiwedge valve wasdesigned with two independent, flexible wedge halvesthat permit relative rotation and can tilt to accommo-

date changes in the body-seat angles. The thicknessof the wedges was minimized, while maintainingacceptable stresses, to allow deflection to accommo-date out-of-flatness in the seat plane. In prototypetests, acceptable sealing was maintained with seatsintentionally misaligned 1° in angle and up to 2° inrotation.

The result is a valve that has high-pressure sealingperformance comparable to that of a parallel-slidevalve but that can also seal exceptionally well at lowdifferential pressures. The independent, flexiblewedge halves in Edward Equiwedge gate valves alsohave commendable resistance to sticking or bindingin the closed position. In prototype tests, the valvealways opened with a torque less than the designclosing torque when exposed to extreme pipe-bend-ing moments and severe thermal transients (heat-upand cool-down).

All wedge gate valves have body guides that mustsupport the wedges when they are not in the fullyclosed position. The seating surfaces of the wedgesand seats are in sliding contact only through a smallportion of the opening and closing travel, thus mini-mizing wear that may degrade seat sealing. Outsidethat range, the side loads are transferred from theseats to the body guides. Wear or scoring of the bodyguides does not affect sealing.

In Edward Equiwedge gate valves, the body guidesare vertical machined grooves at each side of thevalve body which engage tongues on each side of thewedge halves. Precision machining allows transfer ofside load from the seats to the body guides within 3%to 5% of valve travel. Testing has proven that thisguiding system is rugged and supports the gate

assembly effectively, even in“blowdown” services where highdifferential pressure loads actacross the gates when the valveis partially open.

Gate valves of any type areusually not recommended forthrottling or modulating flow-control service. The seatingsurfaces of the gates are subjectto impingement when partiallyopen, and some gate valvesreportedly exhibit instability(internal vibration) when throttled.Nevertheless, high-velocity flowtests of a prototype Edward

Equiwedge gate valve produced no flow-inducedvibration, and there are cases where these valves havebeen used successfully for limited flow-control func-tions. Consult Edward Valves concerning any pro-posed throttling or control applications.

1.1 Stop Valve Applications Guide (con’t.)

As noted in the previous section, Edward stop valvesare not normally recommended for continuous mod-ulation, and Edward Valves should be consulted con-cerning applications involving flow control. This sec-tion is intended only to provide general guidelines onflow-control characteristics of typical Edward stopvalves. These guidelines may be used for preliminarystudies relating to applications involving throttling,but they should not be considered as a substitute fora complete evaluation of the acceptability of a valvefor a critical application.

Figure A provides typical inherent flow-charac-teristic curves (percent of full-open flow coefficientversus percent opening) of the most common types ofEdward stop valves. It should be understood thatthese curves are approximate, because there are vari-ations due to size and pressure class that cannot berepresented accurately by a single curve for eachvalve type. Nevertheless, these typical curves canprovide some guidance relating to control capabilitiesof the various valve types.

Note the following subtle differences between thecurves in Figure A:

• The conventional 90°-bonnet globe valve providesa relatively steep slope at small openings approach-ing a “quick-opening” characteristic. While the body-guided disk in Edward globe valves moderates thiseffect, it makes the flow coefficient very sensitive tosmall changes in stem position, so it may prove diffi-cult to control low flow rates.

• The angle valve has a characteristic similar to thatof a globe valve, but it is slightly closer to linear dueto its normally higher full-open flow coefficient. Anangle valve has about the same control characteristicsas a globe valve of the same size at small openings.

• The cast-steel Flite-Flow® Y-type valve provides acharacteristic that is nearly linear over most of itsstem-travel range. For control of flow over a broadrange, the high flow efficiency of this type of valvemay permit use of a smaller valve size for a givenallowable pressure drop. The smaller size, combinedwith the linear characteristic, can give improved con-trol of low flow rates when the valve is throttled.

• The forged-steel Y-type Univalve® provides evenbetter control at very small openings because of its“double throttling” characteristic as the lower disk-guide ring opens the machined port in the body. Otherforged-steel valves have this characteristic to somedegree.

• The Equiwedge‚ gate valve has an excellent inher-ent flow characteristic (“concave upward”), approach-ing that of an equal-percentage control valve.However, this is somewhat misleading. Wheninstalled in pipe of the same nominal size as thevalve, the pressure drop of a gate valve is so low atlarge openings (e.g., over 70%) that piping flowresistance usually overshadows that of the valve. Thegate valve would provide little control over flow in thatrange.

While not normally recommended for throttling forthe reasons cited in the previous section, the gatevalve flow-characteristic curve is attractive from astandpoint of controlling low flow rates withoutexcessive sensitivity. Use of a gate valve for throttlingmay be considered for some applications.

Most Edward stop and stop-check valves illustratedin this catalog are shown with handwheels, and themajority of valves are furnished for applicationswhere manual actuation is acceptable. Most largerand higher-pressure globe valves are furnished withstandard Impactor handles or handwheels, whichprovide up to twelve times the stem force of an ordi-nary handwheel, to provide for adequate seatingthrust. Impactogear assemblies on the largest globevalves permit operation using an air wrench. TheseEdward innovations permit practical manual opera-tion of many valves that would otherwise requiregearing or power actuators.

Manual Gear ActuatorsWhen specified, many Edward valves can be suppliedwith manual actuators with gear reduction in lieu of ahandwheel. Such actuators reduce the required rim-pull effort and often permit operation by one person incases where several people would be required to seatthe valve with a handwheel. While manual gear actu-ators slow down operation, they are often an attractiveoption for valves that are not operated frequently.

Operating pressure and differential pressure shouldbe specified.

Note: Users sometimes specify that valvesbe operable at maximum differential pressurewith very low rim-pull forces. This mayrequire selection of gearing that may causetwo problems: (1) literally thousands ofhandwheel turns for full-stroke valve opera-tion and/or (2) capability to damage the valveeasily with rim-pull forces that are readilyapplied by many operating personnel.Manual gear actuators with high ratios pro-vide relatively little “feel” to the operator, andit is difficult to tell when a valve is fully openor closed. Good judgment should be exer-cised in specifying practical rim-pull forcerequirements.

Power ActuatorsWhere valves are inaccessible for manual operationor where relatively fast opening or closing is required,most Edward valves can be furnished with poweractuators. The most commonly used actuators areelectric actuators with torque- and position-controlfeatures. Users frequently have individual preferenceson actuator brand names and type, so Edward valvesare furnished with Limitorque, Rotork, Auma or otheractuators to satisfy customer requirements.

Edward Valves establishes actuator sizes and switchsetting based on specific valve-application require-ments, using a computer program that matches thevalve and actuator operating characteristics to theservice-pressure conditions. Unlike most valve man-ufacturers, Edward Valves makes this selection–notthe actuator manufacturer–since we best know therequirements of our valve. However, we must alsoknow the requirements of your application. As a min-imum, requests for quotation should specify:

• Operating pressures – under-and over-seat anddifferential

• Maximum valve operating temperature

• Ambient conditions – temperature, humidity,radiation

• Motor power supply – AC voltage, frequency, andphase or DC voltage (including variance)

• NEMA rating

• Closing/opening time – if important. If not speci-fied, standard nominal stem speed will be 4 inch-es/minute (100 mm/min) for globe valves and 12inches/min (305 mm/min) for gate valves.

• Valve-stem plane – vertical (stem up or down) orhorizontal

• Special accessories – position indicator, etc.

Any other special requirements should be clearlyspecified. If there are non-standard manual-overriderequirements, see the note above relative to rim-pullforces for manual gear actuators.

Stored-Energy ActuatorsFor critical service applications, special balancedFlite-Flow® valves and Equiwedge® gate valves arefurnished with Edward stored-energy actuators thatwere developed and qualified to meet demandingnuclear power-plant requirements. These linear actu-ators are commonly installed on Main SteamIsolation Valves and Main Feedwater Isolation Valves

(MSIV and MFIV) that must be adjustable to close in3 to 10 seconds in the event of a line break.

The Edward actuator completed exhaustive qualifica-tion testing under elevated temperatures, radiation,seismic loadings and other conditions that realistical-ly simulated the most severe operating conditionsencountered in actual service. In addition, extensivequalification testing was done on an Equiwedge MSIVin combination with an Edward actuator, and over 160of these combinations are installed in nuclear plantson three continents.

The Edward actuator employs compressed gas-thestored energy of closure of the valve-in a compact,essentially spherical reservoir atop the piston of thevalve-actuating cylinder. This integral constructioneliminates reliance on external gas-storage tanks orinterconnecting piping to connect the stored-energygas to the power cylinder. Hydraulic fluid is pumpedinto the cylinder below the piston to open the valve,and regulated release of the fluid to a reservoir pro-vides essential closing-speed control.

When specified, larger Edward cast-steel valves arefurnished with valved by-passes and drains in accor-dance with ASME-ANSI B16.34 and MSS SP-45.Cast-steel stop valves employ forged-steel Edwardglobe stop valves, and cast-steel stop-check valvesuse forged steel Edward stop-check valves as by-passvalves. Sizes and by-pass valve figure numbers are asshown on page F-2.

Drain valves for all main valves are the same as theby-pass valves listed for stop valves. When drains arespecified without valves, the standard drain for class300 and 600 valves is a NPT tapped hole in the valvebody, fitted with a pipe plug. For class 900 and high-er-pressure valves, the standard drain is a pipe nip-ple, six inches (152 mm) long, socket-welded to thevalve body.

Drain sizes are the same as by-passes. By-passvalves are particularly useful when opened before themain valve to permit controlled warming of the valveand downstream line in services involving steam orother hot fluids. By-passes also can be used to par-tially or fully balance the differential pressure acrossthe main valve before opening where the downstreamline or system is of limited volume. This facilitatesopening of a gate valve or a glove valve with overseatpressure.

Large-volume systems may require larger by-passesfor balancing in a reasonable time. If this is the case,a special by-pass size should be specified by the pur-chaser. It should be noted that actuated EdwardEquiwedge gate valves do not require by-passes topermit opening if the full differential pressure is spec-ified for actuator sizing. See page F-2 for tables ofstandard sizes and pressure classes for most applica-tions.

1.2 Check Valve Applications Guide

Check valves are used in fluid circuits in applicationssimilar to those in which diodes are used in electricalcircuits. Reduced to simplest terms, the duty of mostcheck valves is to allow flow in one direction and toprevent flow in the reverse direction. The ideal checkwould have zero resistance to flow in the normal flowdirection and infinite resistance to flow (leakage) inthe reverse direction. Of course, the ideal check valveshould also be perfectly reliable and should requireno maintenance.

There are many different types of check valves, andmost do their duty well, giving long, trouble-free ser-vice. However, in the real world, no single type ofcheck valve achieves the ideal performance character-istics users sometimes expect. In a very few cases,mismatching of check valves to the needs of fluid cir-cuits has produced serious problems (noise, vibra-tion, severe pressure surges and check-element fail-ures with attendant gross leakage and consequentialdamage to other equipment). While it is not necessaryfor every application to be ideal, knowledge of thecharacteristics of each type of check valve shouldhelp system designers and valve users to select thebest type and size intelligently. This knowledgeshould also help in assuring that serious problemsare avoided.

Most check valves seen deceptively simple, with onlyone moving part-a poppet or flapper that appearscapable of allowing flow in only one direction.However, this single mechanical part cannot beexpected to take the place of a sophisticated controlsystem that senses flow (direction, quantity, rate ofchange) and provides output to (1) open the valvefully when flow is in one direction and yet (2) closethe valve to prevent flow and leakage in the reversedirection. Each type of check valve has features thatenable it to perform one or more of its duties well, buteach type also has weaknesses. The relative impor-tance of these strengths and weaknesses is highlydependent on the requirements of individual applica-tions.

The goal of this guide is to provide application engi-neers and users with practical advice on check valveselection and sizing, location in piping systems, pre-ventive maintenance and repairs. Emphasis will be onEdward products, but comparisons will be providedin some cases with other types of check valves.

This guide is based on extensive testing of Edwardcheck valves in sizes from NPS 1/2 through 18 aswell as a reasonable sampling of other types. Sincecomplete performance testing of every valve type, sizeand pressure class is not practical, predictions of theperformance of some valves are based on mathemat-ical models. However, the models are based on sub-stantial test data and are believed to be reasonablyaccurate or conservative. The laboratory test filescover over forty years. Perhaps even more important,the files include feedback from substantial field expe-rience-in fossil and nuclear-fueled power plants,refineries, chemical plants, oil fields and in countlessother applications. It is hoped that this test and fieldexperience will help others avoid problems and pit-falls in the application and use of check valves.

IntroductionThis guide has been prepared to aid fluid-systemdesigners in sizing and selecting check valves forindustrial and power-piping systems. Guidance isalso provided on valve orientation (inclination fromhorizontal, etc.) and on location of check valves withrespect to other flow disturbances. In addition, thisguide should aid users in planning preventive main-tenance programs, performing maintenance andrepairs when necessary, and in evaluating and cor-recting problems.

Emphasis in this guide is on selection and applicationof forged- and cast-steel Edward products, but com-parisons with other types of check valves are givenwhere this can be done based on valid information.

The Flow Performance section of this catalog pro-vides equations and coefficients for the calculation ofpressure drop and the flow required to assure fullvalve opening. In addition, that section provides mostof the necessary supplemental data required for rou-tine calculations, such as water and steam density.

This guide also provides caution notes relative to sys-tem-related problems to be avoided (such as pipingvibration, flow instability, waterhammer). Some ofthese guidelines are qualitative and could involve fur-ther analysis. However, attention to these notesshould help to avoid problems.

Finally, this guide addresses check valve mainte-nance. History indicates that preventive maintenanceof check valves is often neglected, and this can leadto serious valve failures which may damage otherequipment. The guidelines provided on periodicinspection and preventive maintenance should pay offin terms of reduced overall plant maintenance andrepair costs.

While other types are sometimes encountered inpower hydraulics and other specialized applications,four basic types of check valves are commonly usedin industrial and power piping applications.

1- Lift Check ValvesThe closure element is a poppet or disk that is liftedopen by flow and which seats, usually on a matingconical surface in the valve body, under no-flowconditions.

2-Ball Check ValvesA lift check valve in which the closure element is aball.

3-Swing Check ValvesThe closure element is a pivoted flapper which isswung open by flow and which seats, generallyagainst a mating flat surface in the valve body, underno-flow conditions.

1.2 Check Valve Applications Guide (con’t.)

4-Tilting-Disk Check ValveThe closure element is a pivoted disk or flapper,somewhat like that in a swing check valve but with apivot axis close to the center of the flow stream. It isswung open by flow and seats against a mating con-ical surface in the valve body under no-flow condi-tions.

There are many variations among these four basictypes of check valves. For example, springs may beincluded to assist closure and counteract gravitation-al forces, and accessories may be provided for exer-cising or position indication. All Edward lift checkvalves employ body-guided disks with a piston-likeextension to provide good guidance and resistance towear. Accordingly, they are referred to in this guide aspiston-lift check valves. In addition, Edward manufac-turers stop-check valves which are piston-lift checkvalves that allow positive closure for isolation, justlike globe stop valves.

Illustrations of the valve types manufactured byEdward are provided in this catalog, and brief noteson advantages, disadvantages, applications, and lim-itations are provided in the Check Valve ApplicationsChart (section 1.2.2). Some further highlights of thefeatures of these valves are provided in the followingparagraphs.

Edward Piston-Lift Check ValvesIn both small forged-steel and large cast-steel Edwardlines, three distinctly different valve body stylesappear in the illustrations – inclined-bonnet globevalve style, angle valve style, and 90°-bonnet globevalve style.

With respect to check valve function, these valves areall similar, with only slightly different orientation lim-its as discussed in the Valve-Installation Guidelinessection (1.3). The main difference between these sys-tems is in flow performance:

• Inclined-bonnet piston-lift check valves producelow pressure drop due to flow when fully open. Theyhave flow coefficients comparable to those of tilting-disk check valves and only slightly lower than pro-vided by many swing check valves.

• In most cases, angle piston-lift check valves havelower flow coefficients and thus produce more pres-sure drop than inclined-bonnet valves, but they aresuperior to 90°-bonnet valves. Where a piping sys-tem requires a bend and a valve, use of an angle pis-ton-lift check valve eliminates the cost and pressuredrop of an elbow and the cost of associated pipingwelds or flanged connections.

• 90°-bonnet piston-lift check valves have the lowestflow coefficients and produce pressure drops compa-rable to 90°-bonnet globe valves. They are some-times preferred in systems where pressure drop is notcritical or where space requirements dictate a mini-mum size and easy access to a handwheel or actuator(on a stop-check valve).

Piston-lift check valves are generally the most practi-cal type for small sizes, and they generally provide thebest seat tightness. Small forged-steel piston-liftcheck valves normally include a disk-return spring,but may be ordered without springs. The FlowPerformance section of this catalog and section 1.3below address such valves, both with and withoutsprings. Cast-steel piston-lift check valves haveequalizer tubes which connect the volume above thepiston with a relatively low-pressure region near thevalve outlet. This feature allows a much larger valveopening (and higher flow coefficient) than would bepossible otherwise, and it allows the valve to openfully at a relatively low flow.

The body-guided feature of Edward piston-lift checkvalves is an advantage in most services, because itassures good alignment of the disk with the valve seatand minimizes lateral vibration and wear. However,this feature may lead to sticking problems due to for-eign-material entrapment in unusually dirty systems.Another inherent characteristic is that large piston-liftcheck valves may not respond rapidly to flow rever-sals and may cause water-hammer problems in sys-tems where the flow reverses quickly [see thePressure Surge and Waterhammer section (1.4.2)].Since smaller valves display inherently fasterresponse, historic files have shown no water-hammerproblems with small forged-steel check valves.

Edward Stop-Check ValvesStop-check valves offer the same tight sealing perfor-mance as a globe stop valve and at the same time givepiston-lift check valve protection in the event of back-flow. A stop-check valve is nearly identical to a stopvalve, but the valve stem is not connected to the disk.When the stem is in the “open” position, the disk isfree to open and close in response to flow, just as ina piston-lift check valve. When serving as a checkvalve, stop-check valves display the same advantagesand disadvantages as discussed above for piston-liftcheck valves. Small forged-steel stop-check valves,except the Univalve® stop-check valves, employ adisk-return spring, and cast-steel stop-check valveshave equalizer tubes that function in the same manneras those on comparable piston-lift check valves.

The stem in the stop-check valve may be driven eitherby a handwheel or an actuator, and it may be usedeither to (1) prevent flow in the normal direction whennecessary for isolation or (2) supplement line pres-sure to enhance seat tightness in applications withpressure from the downstream side. Some usersautomate stop-check valves to give extra system pro-tection against reverse flow and leakage. For example,an actuator may be signaled to close the valve when apump is shut off; the disk closes quickly by normalcheck valve action, and the stem follows to seat thevalve firmly a short time later.

1.2 Check Valve Applications Edward (con’t.)

Edward Ball Check ValvesBall check valves are offered only in small forged-steel configurations (size 2 and smaller) withinclined-bonnet bodies and ball-return springs.These valves are recommended over piston checkvalves, for service with viscous fluids or where thereis scale or sediment in the system. The bolted-bonnetversions offer flow performance that is generally sim-ilar to that of equivalent piston-lift check valves, andthey are the preferred ball check valves for mostindustrial and power-piping applications.

The threaded-bonnet hydraulic ball check valves areused primarily in very high pressure, low-flow appli-cations with viscous fluids. They have lower flowcoefficients that have proven acceptable for those ser-vices. These valves sometimes exhibit chattering ten-dencies when handling water, so they are not recom-mended for low-viscosity fluids.

A unique feature of the ball check valve is that the ballclosure element is free to rotate during operation,allowing the ball and seat to wear relatively evenly.This feature, combined with the standard returnspring, helps to promote positive seating even withheavy, viscous fluids.

Edward Tilting-Disk Check ValvesTilting-disk check valves are particularly well-suitedto applications where rapid response and freedomfrom sticking are essential. Fully open valves of thistype also exhibit low pressure drop. They have flowcoefficients comparable to those of Edward inclined-bonnet piston-lift (Flite-Flow®) check valves andonly slightly lower than provided by many swingcheck valves.

Tilting-disk check valves provide rapid response,because the center of mass of the disk is close to thepivot axis. Just as in a pendulum, this characteristicpromotes rapid motion of the disk toward its natural(closed) position whenever the force holding it openis removed. This response can be valuable in appli-cations where relatively rapid flow reversals mayoccur, such as in pump-discharge service where mul-tiple pumps discharge into a common manifold. Insuch cases, the flow may reverse quickly, and therapid response of the tilting-disk check valve mini-mizes the magnitude of the reverse velocity and theresulting waterhammer pressure surge. This charac-teristic also minimizes impact stresses on the diskand body seats. However, an extremely rapid flowreversal, as might be produced by an upstream piperupture, could cause a problem. See the PressureSurge and Water Hammer section (1.4.2) for furtherdiscussion.

Size-6 and larger tilting-disk check valves have totally enclosed torsion springs in their hinge pins tohelp initiate the closing motion, but the disk is coun-terweighted to fully close without the springs. Withthe free pivoting action of the disk, this type of valveis highly immune to sticking due to debris in the system.

Tilting-disk check valve are superficially similar toswing check valves in that both operate on a pivoting-disk principle. However, the pivot axis in a swingcheck valve is much farther from the disk’s center ofmass, and this increases the “pendulum period” andhence the time required for closure in services withflow reversal. In addition, the one-piece disk in thetilting-disk check valve avoids the necessity of inter-nal fasteners and locking devices, which are requiredto secure disks to pivot arms in most swing checkvalves. However, like swing check valves, tilting-diskcheck valves have hinge pins and bearings that aresubject to wear due to disk flutter if the valve is notfully open and/or there are flow disturbances or insta-bilities. Such wear may product eccentricity of thedisk and seat when the valve closes, leading to adegradation of seat tightness (particularly at low dif-

ferential pressures). Applications involving severelyunstable flow or prolonged service without preventivemaintenance can lead to failures in which the diskseparates completely from the hinge pins and will notclose. Other sections of this guide address the flowconditions which may lead to problems as well asmaintenance recommendations.

Edward Elbow-Down Check and Stop-Check ValvesElbow-down piston-lift check and stop-check valvesare similar to Flite-Flow valves except that the valveoutlet is in the form of an elbow to direct the flowdownward. These valves were designed specificallyfor applications in controlled-circulation powerplants, and they have special clearances and otherdesign features. Because of these special features, thesizing and pressure-drop calculation methods givenin the Flow Performance section of this catalog do notapply. However, special elbow-down valves can befurnished with conventional check valve design fea-tures for applications where this valve-body geometryis desirable.

Edward Combinations of Check andStop-Check ValvesAs noted in the Foreword to this section (1.2), no sin-gle type of check valve achieves ideal performancecharacteristics. The advantages and disadvantagesnoted in the Check Valve Applications Chart (section1.2.2) and other information in this catalog shouldassist in selection of the best valve size and type forany specific application. However, the selection of anysingle valve may require undesirable compromises.

Some system designers and users specify two checkvalves in series for critical applications, and this doesgive some insurance that at least one valve will closeeven if the other valve fails. However, if two identicalvalves are used, a system characteristic that is trou-blesome to one valve could produce problems withboth. In such cases, use of two valves does not assuredouble safety or double life. Sometimes it is worthconsidering the selection of two different types ofcheck valve, each with advantages to offset disadvan-tages of the other.

One specific check valve combination has been usedin applications of Edward valves to provide advan-tages that no single valve can offer. A tilting-diskcheck valve in series with a piston-lift check valveoffers minimum waterhammer and freedom fromsticking (from the tilting-disk) and good seat tight-ness (from the piston-lift check). The disadvantage isadded pressure drop and cost, but the pressure-droppenalty is minor if the Flite-Flow inclined-bonnet pis-ton-lift check valve is used. Even the cost penalty maybe offset if a stop-check valve is used, because it maybe able to take the place of a stop valve that would berequired otherwise for isolation.G

1.3 Check and Stop-Check Valve Installation Guidelines

Unlike stop valves, which can be installed in any posi-tion with little or no effect on performance, most checkand stop-check valves have limitations as to theirinstalled orientation. Although the normal installationis in a horizontal or vertical line (depending on valvetype), check and stop-check valves can be installed inother orientations. It should be noted, however, thatvalves installed in other than the normal positions mayexhibit a degradation of performance, service life andresistance to sticking, depending on the flow condi-tions and cleanliness of the line fluid. For maximumreliability, it is recommended that piston-lift checkvalves and stop-check valves be installed with flowaxis horizontal (vertical inlet and horizontal outlet forangle valves) with the bonnet above the valve in a ver-tical plane. Following are maximum out-of-positionorientations that may be used for less critical applica-tions and which should never be exceeded.

• All Edward forged-steel check and stop-check valves(except Univalve® stop-check valves) are normallyfurnished with spring-loaded disks and may beinstalled in any position. The spring-loaded diskenables positive closure regardless of valve position.However, installed positions in which dirt or scale canaccumulate in the valve neck should be avoided. Anexample of this would be an inclined-bonnet valveinstalled in a vertical pipeline with downward flow. Ifforged-steel valves are ordered without springs, thelimitations below should be observed.

• Edward cast-steel Flite-Flow®, forged-steel Uni-valve, and inclined-bonnet check and stop-checkvalves without springs, when installed in vertical ornear vertical lines, should be oriented such that thefluid flow is upward and the angle of incline of the lineis not more than 5° past the vertical in the direction ofthe bonnet. When installed in horizontal or near hori-zontal lines, the valve bonnet should be up and theangle of incline of the line should be not more than 5°below the horizontal. See Figure 1A. Also, the rollangle of the valve bonnet should not be more than 20°from side to side for either vertical or horizontal instal-lations. See Figures 1B and 1C. Consult your EdwardValves representative concerning installation limits ofbolted-bonnet forged-steel check valves withoutsprings.

• Edward cast-steel and forge-steel 90°-bonnet checkand stop-check valves without springs should beinstalled with the bonnet up, and the angle of incline ofthe line should not be more than 45° form the hori-zontal. Also, the roll angle of the valve bonnet shouldnot be more than 45° from side to side. See Figures 2Aand 2B.

• Edward cast-steel and forged-steel angle check andstop-check valves without springs should be orientedsuch that the incoming flow is upward, and the angleof incline of the line should not be more than 45° ineither direction. See Figure 3A and 3B.

• Edward tilting-disk check valves may be installed inhorizontal lines and vertical lines and at any inclineangle in between. When the incline angle is not hori-zontal, flow should always be up. The roll angle of thevalve should not be more than 30° from side to side.See Figures 4A and 4B. Also, when installed in otherthan vertical lines, the bonnet should always be orient-ed up.

In each case described above, the limitations given forline inclination and bonnet roll angle should not becombined.

It should be understood that the information given inthe section of this catalog entitled Flow Performance isbased on traditional horizontal orientations. For otherorientations, the pressure drop and flow required forfull lift may be affected. In addition, seat tightness, par-ticularly at low differential pressures, may be adverse-ly affected.

Orientation restrictions may also exist for power-actu-ated stop-check valves. Most linear valve actuators aredesigned to be mounted upright and nearly vertical,although they can usually be modified for mounting inany position. When selecting a stop-check valve andpower actuator, be sure to specify the mounting posi-tion desired if not vertical and upright.

1.3 Check and Stop-Check Valve Installation Guidelines (con’t.)

Check valves, like other valve types, are generallytested for performance and flow capacity in long,straight-pipe runs. Flow coefficients obtained fromthese tests are then used to predict the flow rate orpressure drop that will be experienced in actual appli-cations. The ideal installation of a check valve in aplant would be in a long run of straight pipe so thatperformance would correspond to the test conditions.Since space limitations involved with many installa-tions preclude such ideal straight-pipe runs, theeffects of adjacent pipe fittings, control valves,pumps and other flow disturbances must be consid-ered.

Previously published data have indicated that flowdisturbances, particularly upstream disturbances,may significantly affect check valve performance. Ithas been reported that valve flow capacity may besignificantly reduced as compared to that measuredin straight-pipe tests, and there have been strongsuggestions that such disturbances aggravate checkvalve flutter and vibration. Since these conditionscould degrade valve performance and contribute torapid wear and premature valve failure, they areimportant factors in evaluating check valve applica-tions. Figure 5 illustrates how upstream pipe fittingsmay alter the flow profile entering a check valve,crowding it to one side or the other. A similar distor-tion occurs in a valve located near the discharge of acentrifugal pump or blower, as shown in Figure 6.Elbows in two planes cause a flow stream to swirl,which might produce unusual effects on a checkvalve installed as shown in Figure 7.

1.3 Check and Stop-Check Valve Installation Guidelines (con’t.)

Since there was no known way to predict the effects offlow disturbances on check valves by mathematicalmodels, Edward conducted extensive testing of size 2,4, 8 and 10 check valves in straight-pipe runs and inpiping with upstream flow disturbances. Figures 8and 9 illustrate typical flow-test setups.

In most tests, room temperature water was the flowmedium, but limited straight-pipe testing was per-formed with air. The valves tested included Edwardpiston-lift check (inclined-bonnet, angle and 90°-bonnet), tilting-disk check valves and a size-4 swingcheck valve manufactured by another company. Thetests were designed to evaluate the effects of flow dis-turbances on (1) valve stability, particularly when par-tially open; (2) flow rate required to open the valvefully; and (3) the flow coefficient (CV) of the valve. Theflow disturbances evaluated included single and dou-ble (out of plane) 90° elbows in various orientationsimmediately upstream of the check valves. In addi-tion, the effects of a throttled, upstream control valvewere simulated with an offset-disk butterfly valve (atvarious throttle positions) mounted immediatelyupstream, as well as at five and eleven pipe diametersupstream, of the check valves.

With few exceptions, tests with 10 or more diametersof straight pipe upstream of check valves producedlittle cause for concern. In water flow tests, visualposition indicators usually showed only minor disk“wobble” or very small open-close flutter (e.g. lessthan 1° total rotation of a tilting disk), even at very lowflows and small valve openings. The only conditionsthat produced severe instability were those involvingair flow at very low pressures (below 50 psi or 3.4bar) and valve openings less than 20%. Such condi-tions produced significant cyclic motion, with disksbouncing on and off the body seats. In view or themany uncertainties in applying laboratory test resultsto service conditions, it is considered prudent toavoid operating conditions which produce checkvalve openings of less than 25%, even in idealstraight-pipe applications.

Highlights of the results of the Edward tests with flowdisturbances are given in Table A on page G17. Thetest program clearly showed that upstream flow dis-turbances do affect check valve performance, but theeffect is not always predictable. The magnitude of theeffect can vary, depending on the type and even thesize of the valve. In some cases, even the direction ofthe effect (improvement or degradation) varies from

valve to valve. Nevertheless, some general observa-tions on the results of these tests are:

• Single and double upstream elbows produced lesssevere effects on check valve performance than hadbeen expected, and some valves displayed no dis-cernible effects. For example, Edward angle piston-liftcheck valves exhibited the same stability, lift and flowcoefficients (CV) with upstream elbows as withstraight pipe. In tests of other types of valves,upstream elbows produced both beneficial andadverse effect to various degrees.

• In each case where a check valve was tested with athrottled butterfly valve immediately upstream, therewere significant effects on performance. The effectsincluded increased disk flutter and reduced valveopening at a given flow, as compared to straight-pipeperformance. In some cases, full check valve openingcould not be achieved at any flow within the capabil-ities of the test loop.

Even where full opening was obtained, some valvescontinued to flutter on and off their stops. Theseeffects were worst when the butterfly valve was mostseverely throttled (smallest opening and highestpressure drop). In the worst cases, the butterfly valveexhibited audible cavitation, but it is not clear whetherthe adverse effects resulted from simple flow distor-tion or the two-phase flow stream from the cavitatingbutterfly valve.

In similar tests with the butterfly valve moved 5 diam-eters upstream of the check valve (but with similarthrottling), the adverse performance effects weredecreased significantly but not eliminated. When thebutterfly valve was moved 11 diameters upstream ofthe check valve, normal check valve performance wasrestored.

The results of these tests were enlightening, but theymust be combined with observations based on fieldexperience. For example, while upstream elbows pro-duced less severe effects than expected, there werestill adverse effects on some valves. It is difficult to

extrapolate a laboratory test to years of service in aplant installation, but Edward se vice files include aninteresting and relevant incident. Two size-12 tilting-disk check valves in one plant had hinge-pin failuresover a time period of several months after 25 years ofservice. While this incident might best be cited as acase for more inspection and preventive maintenance,the details of the installation were investigated. It wasdetermined that the flow rates were in a range thatshould have assured full disk opening, but the valveswere installed close to upstream elbows.

Users of this catalog may wish to refer to EPRI ReportNo. NP 5479 (see the Sources for AdditionalInformation section of this catalog) for further data onthe performance of swing check valves in tests simi-lar to those conducted by Edward. The size-4 swingcheck valve used in the Edward test program had astop positioned to restrict the disk-opening angle toabout 38°. This valve opened fully at a relatively lowflow and exhibited reasonably stable performance.The tests sponsored by EPRI showed that other swingcheck valves (with less restrictive stops) exhibitedlarger amplitudes of flutter than were observed incomparable Edward tests.

1.3 Check and Stop-Check Valve Installation Guidelines (con’t.)

The following guidelines are based on Edward testsand field experience, combined with other publishedinformation:

• If possible, check valves near flow disturbancesshould be sized to be fully open, preferably by a goodmargin, even at the lowest sustained flow rate antici-pated for each application. The Flow Performancesection of this catalog provides methods for sizingEdward check valves for new installations or for eval-uating existing applications. When flow-inducedforces load a valve closure element firmly against astop, it is less likely to flutter and suffer from rapidwear.

Full opening does not guarantee freedom from prob-lems if the margin is not sufficient to provide a firmload against the stop. Equalizers on Edward cast-steelpiston-lift check and stop-check valves enhance thismargin and provide good stop loading, but flow dis-turbances may cause other valve disks to bounce onand off their stops. This “tapping” phenomenon maycause faster wear than flutter about a partially openposition. For this reason, the minimum sustainedflow rate through a tilting-disk check valve near flowdisturbances should be about 20% greater than theflow rate required to just achieve full opening.

If it is not possible to assure full opening of a checkvalve at minimum flow conditions, at least 25%opening should be assured. Valves operating at par-tial opening for significant periods of time should bemonitored regularly to determine if there is instability or wear.

• In view of uncertainties associated with long-termeffects of flow disturbances, it is recommended that aminimum of 10 diameters of straight pipe be provid-ed between the inlet of a check valve and anyupstream flow disturbance (fittings, pumps, controlvalves, etc.), particularly if calculations indicate thatthe check valve will not be fully open for a substantialportion of the valve service life. There should be aminimum of 1 to 2 diameters of pipe between thecheck valve and the nearest downstream flow distur-bance.

• In the specific case of upstream elbows, reasonablysuccessful performance should be attainable with 5diameters of straight pipe between an upstream elbowand a check valve if the valve will not be partially openfor a significant portion of its service life. Testsdescribed in EPRI Report No. NP 5479 indicate thatelbows installed 5 diameters or more upstream had anegligible effect on swing check valves, and this isexpected to be true for other check valve types. Evenless straight pipe may be satisfactory, but such closespacing should be reserved for applications with verytight space constraints. More frequent inspection andpreventive maintenance should be planned for valvesin such installations.

• In the specific case of throttled upstream controlvalves, the minimum requirement of 10 upstreampipe diameters should be adhered to rigidly. Calcula-tions indicating full valve opening based on straight-pipe tests cannot be trusted to prevent problems,because severe flow disturbances may prevent fullopening. Even greater lengths of straight pipe shouldbe considered if the control valve operates with veryhigh pressure drop or significant cavitation.

• Users with existing check valve installations that donot meet these guidelines should plan more frequentinspection and preventive maintenance for suchvalves. If a check valve is installed close to anupstream control valve that operates with a high pres-sure drop, considerations should be given to achange in piping or valve arrangements.

1.3 Check and Stop-Check Valve Installation Guidelines (con’t.)

In addition to the fundamentals of check valve selec-tion, sizing and installation, several other potentialsources of check valve problems should be consid-ered in applications engineering or, if necessary, insolving problems with existing installations:

• Piping-System VibrationIn other sections of this guide, it has been noted thatcheck valve damage or performance problems mayresult from flow-induced flutter or vibration of the clo-sure element. Very similar damage may result frompiping-system vibration. Such vibration may origi-nate at pumps, cavitating control valves or otherequipment. Check and stop-check valves are suscep-tible to vibration damage, because the check elementis “free floating” when partially open, with only theforces due to fluid flow to balance the moving weight.Impact damage and internal wear may result if thevalve body vibrates while internal parts attempt toremain stationary. This condition may be avoided byadequately supporting the piping system near thecheck valve or by damping vibration at its source. Ofcourse, it is helpful to assure that the check elementopens fully, because flow forces at the disk-stop helpto inhibit relative motion.

• Debris in Line FluidDebris in the flow stream can cause damage and per-formance problems in check and stop-check valves.Debris entrapped between the disk and seat may pre-vent full closure and lead directly to seat leakage. Ifhard particles or chips are in the debris, they maydamage the seating surfaces and contribute to seatleakage even after they are flushed away. Debriscaught between the disk and the body bore of a pis-ton-lift check valve can cause the disk to jam and pre-vent full opening or closing. To insure best checkvalve performance and seat tightness, line fluidsshould be kept as clean as practical. As noted before,tilting-disk check valves are particularly resistant tosticking or jamming, but they are no more resistant toseat damage than other types.

• Unsteady (Pulsating) FlowAn unsteady flow rate can lead to rapid check valvedamage, particularly if the minimum flow during acycle is not sufficient to hold the valve fully open. Thevalve may be damaged just because it does what acheck valve is designed to do – open and close inresponse to changes in flow. As an example, a checkvalve installed too close to the outlet of a positive dis-placement pump may attempt to respond to the dis-charge of each cylinder. If the mean flow during acycle is low, the disk may bounce off the seat repeat-edly in a chattering action. If the mean flow is higher,the disk may bounce on and off the full-open stop.Such pulsating flows may be difficult to predict. Forexample, a steam leak past the seat of an upstreamstop valve may produce a “percolating” action in aline filled with condensate and cause a check valve tocycle. Such problems may only be discovered by pre-ventive maintenance inspections.

• Vapor Pockets in Liquid PipingSystems

Unusual phenomena are sometimes observed in pip-ing systems containing hot water that partially vapor-izes downstream of a closed check valve. Vapor pock-ets at high points may collapse suddenly when thecheck valve opens (due to the start-up of a pump, forexample). This collapse may be remote from thecheck valve and have no effect on the check valve per-formance. However, if a vapor pocket exists in theupper part of a piston-lift check or stop-check valvebody (above the disk), the collapse may generateunbalanced forces in the direction of disk opening.Since the vapor offers little fluid resistance, rapidacceleration of the disk toward the fully open positionmay occur. In extreme cases, the disk or bonnet stopsmay be damaged due to impact. Such thermodynam-ic quirks are difficult to anticipate when designing apiping system and are sometimes as difficult to diag-nose if they occur in an existing installation. Changesin piping arrangements or operating procedures maybe necessary if severe problems occur. It is possiblethat similar problems may occur during low-pressurestart-up operations in unvented liquid-piping sys-tems.

1.4 Check Valve Performance

Edward check valves are factory-tested with water inaccordance with MSS SP-61 (ManufacturersStandardization Society of the Valve and FittingsIndustry, Inc.) at an overseat pressure of 1.1 times thepressure ratings of the valve. While check valves areallowed leakage rates up to 40 ml/hr per unit of nom-inal valve size by MSS SP-61, Edward allows nomore than 5% of this leakage for cast-steel valves andno visible leakage for forged-steel valves. Tilting-diskand forged-steel check valves are then tested again ata reduced pressure with allowable leakage rateswhich are less than the MSS SP-61 requirements.

Closed check valve closure elements (disk, ball, flap-per, etc.) are acted on by a combination of forces pro-duced by gravity, springs (where applicable) andreversed differential pressure. While gravity andspring forces help to position the closure element intothe substantially closed position, metal-to-metalseating check valves typically rely on pressure forcesto produce the seating loads necessary for good seattightness.

Some metal-seated check valves do not producegood seat tightness at low differential pressures, par-ticularly when the pressure increases from zero. Athreshold level of differential pressure is required toproduce uniform metal-to metal contact and restrictleakage to a reasonable rate. An even higher level isrequired to assure that a valve meets leakage-rate cri-teria like those in MSS SP-61. Unfortunately, theselevels of differential pressure are difficult to predict;they vary with valve type, condition and orientation(and with cleanliness of line fluid).

Tests of new valves in horizontal lines show that cast-steel inclined-bonnet and 90°-bonnet piston-liftcheck and tilting-disk check valves seal off reason-ably well at under 50 psi (3.4 bar) when differentialpressure increases from zero. Small forged-steel balland piston-lift check valves are less consistent,sometimes seating at less than 50 psi (3.4 bar) andsometimes requiring 250 psi (17 bar) or more. This

“seating” action often occurs suddenly when thepressure forces shift the closure element into goodmetal-to metal contact with the body seat, and leak-age generally continues to decrease as the pressure isincreased. Once seated, most valves seal well if pres-sure is reduced below the threshold required for ini-tial seating, but the seat tightness with reducing pres-sure is also difficult to predict.

Some of the Edward check valves described in thiscatalog have been manufactured with “soft seats” toprovide improved seat tightness at low differentialpressures. This design feature includes an elastomer-ic or plastic sealing member on the valve closure ele-ment to supplement the basic metal-to-metal seatingfunction. Since the design and material selection forthese sealing members are very sensitive to pressure,temperature and compatibility with the line fluid, thereare no standard, general-purpose, soft-seated valves.Consult Edward Valves for further information aboutspecific applications.

Foreign material in the flow medium is a major sourceof leakage problems in many valves. Because of thelimited seating forces in check valves, dirt has a fargreater effect on the tightness of these valves thanother types. Attention to cleanliness of the fluid isnecessary where good check valve seat tightness isdesired.

Incorrect sizing or misapplication of a check valvecan also lead to leakage problems. Chattering of theclosure element on its seat due to insufficient flow orpressure can cause damage to the seat or closureelement and result in leakage.

In applications where check valve leakage is a prob-lem, a stop-check valve may offer the solution. Stemload from a handwheel or actuator can provide thenecessary seating force independent of pressure. Ofcourse, the stem must be returned to the “open” posi-tion to allow flow in the normal direction. ConsultEdward Valves about applications that are usuallysensitive to leakage.

A complete treatment of the subject of pressure surgeand waterhammer is beyond the scope of this catalog,but some discussion is provided so that applicationengineers may appreciate the significance of theproblem as it relates to check valves.

One part of the problem is that the terminology or jar-gon is not consistently used. For example, “water-hammer” or “steam hammer” is sometimes used todescribe the implosion which occurs when waterenters a hot, low pressure region and causes a steamvoid to collapse. This has occurred in systems with afailed check valve, where the water came back from alarge reverse flow through the check valve. However,the more common “waterhammer” problem associat-ed with check valves occurs as a result of the checkvalve closing and suddenly terminating a significantreversed flow velocity. This problem is generallyassociated with valves handling water or other liq-uids. A similar pressure surge phenomenon may beencountered with steam or gas, but it is generallymuch less serious with a compressible flow medium.

Waterhammer is a pressure surge produced by thedeceleration of a liquid column, and it involves pres-sure waves that travel at close to the velocity of soundthrough the fluid. It is commonly illustrated in textsby an example involving rapid closure or a valve in along pipe. For such a case, it can be shown thatinstantaneous closure of a valve in a room-tempera-ture water line will produce an increase in pressure ofabout 50 psi (3.4 bar) above the steady-state pressurefor every 1 ft/sec (0.30 m/sec) decrease in watervelocity. Even if the valve does not close instanta-neously, the same pressure increase would develop ifthe upstream pipe is long enough to prevent reflectedpressure waves from reaching the valve before it clos-es. The waves of increasing pressure that are gener-ated by the closing valve “reflect” from a constant-pressure reservoir or vessel, if present in the system,and return to the valve as inverted waves thatdecrease pressure. A solution to the “textbook prob-

lem” is to slow down the valve closure so that thereflected pressure waves attenuate the surge.However, this is not necessarily the best approach inthe case of a check valve.

In a check valve, the fluid velocity is forward beforethe valve starts to close, but it reduces due to somesystem action (e.g., a pump is shut off). If the veloci-ty reverses before the valve closes, a waterhammersurge will be produced by a conventional check valvethat is nearly proportional to the magnitude of themaximum reversed velocity. Figure 10 providescurves illustrating flow transients associated with dif-ferent types of systems and flow interruptions. Thegraphs illustrate velocity in the pipe, forward andreverse, versus time on arbitrary scales. The followingdiscussions describe each of the curves:

• Curve A illustrates flow coast-down in a simplecirculating loop, such as a cooling system, followingswitch-off of pump power. The momentum of thepump impeller and the fluid keeps the fluid going for-ward until it is decelerated and finally stopped by fric-tion. There would be no need for a check valve to pre-vent reverse flow in this system, but one might beincluded to permit pump maintenance without drain-ing other equipment. In normal operation of this system, the check valve could produce no water-hammer.

• Curve B illustrates an application with a pumpfeeding a high-pressure system with a fairly large vol-ume. It might represent a boiler feed system of apump feeding a high reservoir. In this case, assumingsimilar momentum in the pump and fluid, forwardflow continues for a while after the pump is switchedoff, but the downstream pressure decelerates the flowmore rapidly and then reverses its direction. Withouta check valve, the reverse flow would increase andstabilize at some value, unless the downstream sys-tem pressure declined. In the illustration, the magni-tude of the maximum reverse velocity is drawn lessthan the initial forward velocity, but it might be high-er in some systems.

1.4 Check Valve Performance (con’t.)

• Curve C illustrates what would happen in the sys-

tem described for Curve B with a fast-response checkvalve (e.g., a tilting-disk type) installed. As discussedin the Foreword to this guide, an “ideal” check valvewould allow no reverse flow and would close exactlyat the time the velocity curve passes through zero;there would be no waterhammer. A “real” check valvestarts closing while the flow is still forward, but it lagsthe velocity curve. With fast response, it closes beforea high reverse velocity develops, thus minimizing thewaterhammer surge.

• Curve D illustrates the same system with a checkvalve that responds just a bit slower. It shows that justa small increase in check valve lag may allow a largeincrease in reverse velocity (and a correspondingincrease in waterhammer surge pressure).

• Curve E illustrates an accidental situation thatmight develop with a severely worn valve or a dirtysystem. If a check valve in the system describedabove should stick open, it might allow the reversevelocity to build up so as to approach that whichwould occur without a check valve. If the reverse flowforces should then overcome the forces that causedthe sticking, the resulting valve stem could cause adamaging waterhammer surge.

• Curve F illustrates what might happen in the sys-tem described for Curve B if there were a major piperupture just upstream of the check valve. With freedischarge through the open end, the flow woulddecelerate much more rapidly and, without a checkvalve, reach a much higher reverse velocity.

• Curve G shows the response of the system inCurve F if even a fast-response conventional checkvalve were to be used. With a flow deceleration thisrapid, even a small lag may result in a very highreverse velocity to be arrested and a correspondinglyhigh waterhammer surge.

Fortunately, it is not necessary to design every pipingsystem with a check valve to cope with a pipe rupture.However, this requirement has emerged in somepower-plant feedwater piping systems. Edward analy-ses and tests have shown that even the most rapid-responding conventional check valve could produce

unacceptable waterhammersurges. This led to the develop-ment of the special controlled-clo-sure check valve (CCCV–see Figure 11). Since highreverse velocities are inevitable, the CCCV solves theproblem the way the “textbook problem” discussedabove is solved–by closing slowly. The CCCV is apiston-lift check valve, but it has an internal dashpotwhich slows the closing speed of the valve. Closingspeed depends on the rate at which water is squeezedout of the dashpot chamber, through flow paths thatare sized for each application.

• Curve H illustrates the velocity variation in thepipe-rupture situation described for Curve F, but witha CCCV in the line. In this case, the maximum reversevelocity might even be higher than in Curve G, but itis decelerated back to zero slowly, allowing reflectedreducing-pressure waves to minimize the resultingwaterhammer surge. Figure 12 provides a compari-son between a conventional check valve and a CCCVfor a specific pipe-rupture situation. Note that theconventional check valve closes in 0.07 seconds ascompared to 1.0 seconds for CCCV. As a result, theconventional check valve produced a surge of 3000psi (207 bar) while the CCCV limits the surge to 600psi (41 bar). These characteristics have been demon-strated in tests and can be duplicated in computer-based dynamic analysis simulations of specificvalves and systems.

While the CCCV solves a special problem, even thissophisticated product does not fulfill the definition ofan ideal check valve. By closing slowly, it allows sig-nificant reverse blow before it seats. This characteris-tic might be undesirable in common pump-dischargeapplications, because the reverse flow might haveadverse effects on pumps or other equipment. Studiesof systems designs sometimes show that fast-response check valves, such as the tilting-disk type,should be retained at pump discharge points wherean upstream pipe rupture is unlikely, with CCCVsapplied at locations where an upstream pipe rupturecould cause serious consequences (e.g., in feedwaterlines inside the containment vessel of a nuclearpower plant).

1.4 Check Valve Performance (con’t.)

In Curves C, D, E, and G of Figure 10, it may be notedthat the final terminations of reverse velocity areshown as substantially vertical lines. This does notimply that the valve closes instantaneously. However,tests of conventional check valves show that thereverse velocity in the pipe containing the valve doesterminate almost instantaneously. This apparent con-tradiction may be understood by referring to Figure13, which illustrates a check valve approaching theclosed position with reverse flow (while the illustra-tion depicts a swing check valve, the flow conditiondiscussed here would be much the same with a pop-pet or disk in a conventional lift check or piston-liftcheck valve).

The key observation from Figure 13 is that a columnof fluid follows the closure element at roughly thesame velocity that the closure element has as itapproaches its seating surface in the valve body.While the valve may start to close while the flowvelocity is still forward (see Figure 10), an undampedcheck valve has little effect on pipe flow during clo-sure, and the disk velocity is about the same as thereverse flow velocity in the pipe at the instant justbefore closure. Since the disk is stopped substantial-ly instantaneously when it makes metal-to-metal con-tact with the body seat, the reverse flow velocity in thepipe must also be arrested instantaneously. Becauseof this characteristic, the surge produced by the slamof a conventional check valve cannot be attenuatedsignificantly by reflected reducing-pressure waves,and the surge tends to be relatively insensitive to sys-tem pipe lengths.

In some check valve applications, problems havebeen observed due to a phenomenon that is related towaterhammer but not as widely recognized. When ahigh-pressure wave is produced on the downstreamside of a check valve at closure, a reverse low-pres-sure wave is produced on the upstream side. If thislow-pressure wave reduces the fluid pressure tobelow the saturation pressure of the fluid, a vaporpocket can form. This can be compared to a tensilefailure of the flow stream, and it is sometimes referred

to as column separation or column rupture. Thisvapor pocket is unstable and will collapse quickly,with an implosion that produces a high-pressure“spike.” It is possible for this pressure surge toexceed the one initially produced on the downstreamof the check valve. Instrumented laboratory tests haveshown that the upstream pressure spike sometimescauses the disk to reopen slightly and “bounce” off itsseat once or twice. In very rare occasions, sometimesinvolving systems with multiple check valves, thischaracteristic has been known to amplify, leading todamaging pipe vibrations.

In summary, waterhammer can produce complexproblems in check valve applications. Numericalsolutions to these problems require sophisticatedcomputer-based dynamic analyses of both the checkvalve and the fluid in the piping system. This catalogdoes not provide the methods for making such analy-ses; instead, the information in this section is intend-ed to assist fluid-system designers in avoiding theproblem.

Users who already have check valves in liquid flowlines that emit loud “slams” when they close shouldbe aware that the noise is probably associated withpressure surges that could lead to fatigue problems inthe valve, piping or other components. Where theexisting check valve is a piston-lift check or stop-check valve, the solution could be to add a tilting-diskcheck valve in series with the existing check valve togain the advantages of both valve types. Where theexisting valve is a swing check valve, replacement bya tilting-disk check valve might be considered. Seethe section of this catalog entitled Check Valve Typesand Typical Uses (1.2.1) for a discussion of thestrengths and weaknesses of the various valve types.

1.4 Check Valve Performance (con’t.)

Edward Check valves can be provided with variousaccessories which are used to induce check-elementmotion (exercise) or indicate check-element position.Some of the features available are as follows:

• Visual disk-position indicator for tilting-diskcheck valve

• Electrical open/close position indicator for tilting-disk or cast-steel piston-lift check valve

• Manual or pneumatic actuator to partially open tilt-ing-disk check valve under zero differential pres-sure

• CCCVs can be furnished with an injection portwhich allows the valve disk to be exercised byinjecting water into the dashpot chamber when thevalve is under a zero differential pressure.

Periodic inspection and preventive maintenance ofcheck and stop-check valves should be performed toinsure that the valves are operating properly. Bonnet-joint leakage and packing leakage on stop-checkvalves are easy to detect. Seat leakage of a check orstop-check valve might be indicated by one of the fol-lowing: a definite pressure loss on the high-pressureside of the valve; continued flow through an inspec-tion drain on the low-pressure side; or, in hot water orsteam lines, a downstream pipe that remains hotbeyond the usual length of time after valve closure.Leakage of steam through a valve which is badlysteam-cut has a whistling or sonorous sound. If thevalve is only slightly steam-cut, however, leakage isidentified by subdued gurgling or weak poppingsounds. These sounds can often be heard through astethoscope.

Excessive vibration, noise or humming coming fromwithin a piston-lift check or stop-check valve indi-cates the possibility that the disk-piston assembly iswedged inside the body. Such sticking may be causedby uneven body-guide rib wear on the downstreamside. Sticking rarely occurs with tilting-disk checkvalves.

“Tapping,” “thumping” or “rattling” noises detectedfrom or near a check valve may indicate disk instabil-ity or cavitation. Instability could lead to rapid wearand possible valve failure. Audible cavitation is alsodetrimental. It may produce damage to the valve or thedownstream piping. While the noise symptoms may betransmitted through the pipe from other equipment,prompt investigation is required if the check valve’sperformance is critical to plant reliability.

No specific inspection/preventive maintenanceschedule can be given to cover all check valves. It issuggested that small valves be sampled by size andtype (there may be hundreds in a large installation).Schedules for audit of larger valves should considerthe criticality of the valve service. It is wise to opensome critical valves for internal inspection at intervalseven if no suspicious noises are detected.

Where check valves are installed close to pumps,control valves, pipe fittings or other flow distur-bances, they should have more frequent inspection[see the section of this catalog entitled Adjacent FlowDisturbances (1.3.1)]. In addition, attention should begiven to valves in installations with significant pipevibration.

Users of this guide may wish to consider non-intru-sive check valve monitoring methods as a supple-ment to periodic visual inspection and measurementof check valve internals. Noise and vibration, acousticemission, ultrasonic and radiographic methods havebeen studied and demonstrated. EPRI Report No. NP5479 provides an evaluation of the state of the art, butusers are advised to obtain the most current informa-tion available on these emerging technologies.

If problems are found through any of the inspectionsdiscussed above, refer to section J: Maintenance.

2. Flow Performance

The most economical valve is the valve correctlysized for the service flow conditions. Too small avalve will have a high pressure drop and will incurexpensive energy costs in service. Too large a valvewastes money at the time of purchase, and it mayrequire excessive effort or an excessively large andexpensive actuator for operation.

Piping-system designers sometimes optimize the sizeof valves and piping systems to minimize the sum ofinvestment costs and the present value of pumpingpower costs. While this may not be practical forselection of every valve, it is a goal that should bekept in mind. This catalog provides information nec-essary to evaluate the various types and sizes ofEdward valves for stop (isolation), stop-check andcheck valve applications.

In the case of stop-check and check valves, anotherconsideration is that an oversized valve may not opencompletely. Obviously, if a valve is not fully open, thepressure drop will be increased. Also, if the diskoperates too close to the seat, unsteady flow maycause flutter that may damage valve seats, disks orguides.

System designers should also address “turndown” ifservice conditions involve a broad range of flow rates(e.g., high flow in normal operation but low flow dur-ing start-up and standby conditions). For these rea-sons, selection of check valves requires extra stepsand care in calculations.

This section includes equations for the calculation ofpressure drop, required flow coefficient, flow rate orinlet flow velocity. Procedures are also provided tocheck and correct for cavitation and flow choking. Theequations in this section assume that the fluid is a liq-

uid, a gas or steam. Two-component flow (e.g. slur-ries, oil-gas mixtures) is not covered by the equa-tions. Consult Edward Valves for assistance in evalu-ating such applications.

Tables in this section contain performance data for allEdward stop, stop-check and check valves. Flowcoefficients and cavitation/choked-flow coefficientsare given for all fully open Edward valves. In addition,for check and stop-check valves, the tables provideminimum pressure drop for full lift, crack-open pres-sure drop, and a novel “sizing parameter” that is help-ful in selecting the proper valve size for each applica-tion.

Caution: Pressure drop, flow rate and checkvalve lift estimates provided by Edward calcu-lation methods are “best estimate” valves.Calculations are based on standard equationsof the Instrument Society of America (ISA),flow rate and fluid data provided by the user,and valve flow coefficients provided byEdward Valves.

Flow rate and fluid data are often design orbest-estimate values. Actual values may differfrom original estimates. Flow and check valvelift coefficients are based on laboratory test-ing. Valves of each specific type are tested,and results are extended to sizes not testedusing model theory. This approach is funda-mentally correct, but there is some uncertaintybecause of geometric variations betweenvalves.

These uncertainties prevent a guarantee withrespect to valve pressure drop, flow rate andlift performance, but we expect results of cal-culations using Edward Valves methods to beat least as accurate as comparable calcula-tions involving flow and pressure drop ofother piping system components.

This section is divided into two parts. The BasicCalculations section (2.1) covers most applicationswhere pressure drops are not excessive. This is gen-erally the case in most Edward valve applications, andthe simple equations in this section are usually suffi-cient for most problems.

When the pressure drop across a valve is large com-pared to the inlet pressure, refer to the CorrectionsRequired with Large Pressure Drops section (2.2).Various fluid effects must be considered to avoiderrors due to choked flow of steam or gas – or flash-ing or cavitation of liquids. While use of these moredetailed calculations is not usually required, it is rec-ommended that the simple checks in that sectionalways be made to determine if correction of theresults of the Basic Calculations is necessary. Withexperience, these checks can often be made at aglance.

The following equations apply to FULLY OPEN gateand globe valves of all types. They also apply to stop-check and check valves if the flow is sufficient to openthe disk completely. The Check Valve Sizing section(2.3) must be used to determine if a check valve isfully open and to make corrections if it is not.

The following simple methods may be used to calcu-late pressure drop, required flow coefficient, flow rateor inlet flow velocity for fully open Edward valves inthe majority of applications. Always check BasicCalculations against the ∆P/p1 criteria in Figure 14 tosee if corrections are required. This check is auto-matically made when using the Proprietary ValveSizing Computer Program available from EdwardValves.

2.2 Basic Calculations

Note: In preliminary calculations using the following equations, a piping geometry factor, Fp =1.0, may be used, assuming that the valve size is the same as the nominal pipe size. However, if anapplication involves installing a valve in a larger-sized piping system (or piping with a lower pressurerating than the valve, which will have a larger inside diameter), determine Fp from the Pipe ReducerCoefficients section when final calculations are made.

2. Flow Performance (con’t.)

Results of these calculations may be used to select avalve with a valve flow coefficient that meets therequired flow and pressure-drop criteria. Of course,valve selection also required prior determination ofthe right valve type and pressure class, using othersections of this catalog. The tabulated CV of theselected valve should then be used in the appropriatepressure drop or flow-rate equation to evaluate actu-al valve performance. At this stage, the checksdescribed in section 2.2 should be made to correct foreffects of large pressure drops if required.

As discussed below under flow-rate calculations, theflow-coefficient equations assume that the allowablepressure drop is available for the valve. Piping pres-sure drop should be addressed separately.

Caution: In applications of stop-check orcheck valves, the results of these equationswill apply only if the valve is fully open.Always use the methods given in the CheckValve Sizing section (2.3) to assure that thevalve will be fully open or to make appropri-ate corrections.

2.3 Corrections Required With Large Pressure Drops

While most Edward valves are used in relatively high-pressure systems and are usually sized to producelow pressure drop at normal flow rates, care is nec-essary to avoid errors (which may be serious in somecases) due to flow “choking” (or near-choking).Problems arise most often at off-design flow condi-tions that exist only during plant start-up, shutdown,or standby operation.

Since steam and gas are compressible fluids, chok-ing (or near-choking) may occur due to fluid expan-sion which causes the fluid velocity to approach orreach the speed of sound in reduced-area regions.While liquids are normally considered to be incom-pressible fluids, choking may also occur with liquidflow due to cavitation or flashing. In each case, sim-ple calculations can be made to determine if a prob-lem exists. Relatively simple calculations arerequired to correct for these effects. In some cases,these calculations may require a change in the size oftype of valve required for a specific application.

The flow parameters Ki, FL and xT in the valve datatables assume that the valve is installed in pipe of thesame nominal size. This is a fairly good assumptionfor preliminary calculations, but refer to the PipeReducer Coefficients section if there is a mismatchbetween valve and pipe diameters (also see instruc-tions relative to Fp calculations in section 2.1) andmake the appropriate corrections when final calcula-tions are made.

Note: Because large pressure drop problemsare not encountered frequently, equations arepresented in terms of weight flow rate (w) anddensity (�) only. See the Conversion ofMeasurement Units section for convertingother units of flow rate to weight flow rate.

2.3 Corrections Required With Large Pressure Drops (con’t.)

2.3.1.2 Flow Rate – When calculating the flow ratethrough a valve, the actual pressure drop is known,but the flow may be reduced by choking or near-choking.

To check for high pressure-drop effects, calculate R1,the ratio of pressure drop to absolute upstream pres-sure (see equation 5 above) noting that the pressuredrop in this case is the known value.

(1) Flow rates determined using the BasicCalculations are sufficiently accurate if R1 is less thatabout twice the value tabulated in Figure 14 for theapplicable valve type (higher because actual pressuredrop is used in the ratio). In this case, no correctionis necessary.

(2) When corrections for higher values of R1 arerequired, calculate the gas expansion factor directlyfrom:

Y= 1 – 0.467(∆P/p1)(U.S. or metric)(10)kxT

(3) The calculation method to determine the flow ratedepends on the calculated value of Y from equation(10):

• If Y is greater than 0.667 (but less that 1), the flowis not fully choked. Calculate the corrected flow rateas follows:

wC = Yw (U.S. or metric)(11)

• If Y is equal to or less than 0.667, the valve flow ischoked, and the results of the Basic Calculations areinvalid. The actual flow rate may be calculated fromthe equation for wchoked [(8a) or (8b)] above.

Caution: Choked or near-choked flow con-ditions may produce significant flow-inducednoise and vibration. Prolonged operationwith flow rates in this region may also causeerosion damage within a valve or in down-stream piping, particularly if the flow condi-

tion involve “wet” steam. Edward valves tol-erate these conditions well in services involv-ing limited time periods during plant start-up,shutdown, etc., but consult Edward Valvesabout applications involving long exposure tosuch conditions.

The fluid pressure in high-velocity regions within avalve may be much lower than either the upstreampressure of the downstream pressure. If the pressurewithin a valve falls below the vapor pressure (pv) ofthe liquid, vapor bubbles or cavities may form in theflow stream. Cavitation, flashing and choking mayoccur. Use the equations and procedures in this sec-tion to evaluate these phenomena.

Cavitation and flashing are closely related, and theymay be evaluated by calculating a pressure-drop ratiothat is slightly different from that used for gas orsteam:

R1 = ∆P (12)(p1�pv)

To evaluate a particular valve and application, findvalues of Ki and FL from the appropriate valve-datatable, find pV values for common liquids given inFigure 25, calculate R2, and perform the followingchecks:

(1) Cavitation – the sudden and sometimes violentcoalescence of the cavities back to the liquid state –occurs when the downstream pressure (within thevalve or in the downstream pipe) recovers to abovethe vapor pressure.

• If R2 < Ki, there should be no significant cavitationor effect on flow or pressure drop. Results of theBasic Calculations require no correction.

• If R2 > Ki, cavitation begins. If the ratio is onlyslightly greater than Ki, it may be detected as an inter-mittent “ticking” noise near the valve outlet, although

pipe insulation may muffle this sound. This stage ofcavitation is usually related to tiny vapor cavities thatform near the center of vortices in the flow stream,and it generally produces neither damage nor effectson flow characteristics. However, as the pressure dropratio R2 increases, the noise progresses to a “shh,”then a “roar.”

• If R2 > (Ki + FL2)/2, approximately, larger vapor cav-

ities develop and the risk of cavitation damage (pit-ting) in the valve or downstream pipe may be a con-cern if this flow condition is sustained for significantperiods of time. Noise may also pose a problem. Still,at this stage, there is usually no significant effect onvalve flow characteristics. Results of the BasicCalculations require no correction.

As the pressure-drop ration increases beyond thispoint, some valves suffer slight reductions in their CV

values, but there is no practical way of correctingpressure drop or flow calculations for this effect.Vibration and noise increase, ultimately sounding like“rocks and gravel” bouncing in the pipe at about thepoint where flow becomes choked.

2.4 Check Valve Sizing

The most important difference between check (includ-ing stop-check) valves and stop valves, from a flowperformance standpoint, is that the check valve disk isopened only by dynamic forces due to fluid flow. Thepreceding calculation methods for flow and pressuredrop are valid only if it can be shown that the valve isfully open.

The primary purpose of this section is to provide meth-ods to predict check valve disk opening and to makecorrections to pressure-drop calculations if the valve isnot fully open. These methods are particularly applica-ble to sizing valves for new installations, but they arealso useful for evaluation of performance of existingvalves.

In selecting a stop-check or check valve for a newinstallation, the first steps require selecting a propertype and pressure class. The Stop and Check ValveApplications Guide section of this catalog should bereviewed carefully when the type is selected, notingadvantages and disadvantages of each type and con-sidering how they relate to the requirements of theinstallation. Other sections of this catalog providepressure ratings to permit selection of the requiredpressure class.

The first step in evaluating a stop-check or check valveapplication is to determine the Sizing Parameter basedon the system flow rate and fluid properties:

SP = w (U.S. or metric)(16)

√�

Tables in this section provide a Sizing Parameter forfull lift (SpFL) for each Edward stop-check and checkvalve. The amount of opening of any check valve andits effect on pressure drop can be checked simply asfollows:

• If SpFL < SP, the valve is fully open. Pressure dropmay be calculated using the equations given previous-ly for fully open valves (including corrections for largepressure drops if required).

• IF SPFL > SP, the valve is not fully open. A smallersize valve or another type should be selected if possi-ble to assure full opening. If that is not feasible, threeadditional steps are required to evaluate the openingand pressure drop of the valve under the specified ser-vice conditions.

Note: EPRI Report No. NP 5479 (ApplicationGuideline 2.1) uses a “C” factor to calculate theminimum flow velocity required to fully open acheck valve. The sizing procedures in this cat-alog do not employ the “C” factor, but valuesare given in the valve data tables for readerswho prefer to use the EPRI methods. Since theEPRI methods are based on velocity, a flowarea is required as a basis. Valve InletDiameters presented in data tables are thebasis for correlation between flow rate andvelocity.

If the preceding evaluation revealed an incompletelyopen check valve, perform the following additional cal-culations:

Calculate the flow-rate ratio:

RF = SP (U.S. or metric)(17)SPFL

Determine the disk operating position:

Using the RF value calculated above, determine thevalve operating position from Figure 16 (forged-steelvalves) or Figures 17-20 (cast-steel valves).Performance curve numbers for individual cast-steelstop-check and check valves are given in the tabula-tions with other coefficients. Evaluate the acceptabilityof the operating position based on recommendationsin the Check Valve Applications Guide and in the spe-cific sizing guidelines below.

Calculate the pressure drop:

Again using the RF value calculated above, determinethe pressure drop ratio RP from Figures 16-20, and cal-culate the valve pressure drop at the partially openposition:

∆P = RP∆PFL (U.S. or metric)(18)

Values for ∆PFL for all stop-check and check valves aregiven in Valve Tables 1 to 5 and 10 to 15 with othercoefficients.

Note: The values of the various valve coeffi-cients given in the tabulations are based ontesting of a substantial number of valves. Mostare applicable to any line fluid, but thoseinvolving check valve lift are influenced bybuoyancy. Tabulated values are based on refer-ence test conditions with room-temperaturewater. SPFL and ∆PFL are slightly higher inapplications involving lower-density line flu-ids. Considering the expected accuracy ofthese calculations, the following correctionsmay be considered:

• For water at any temperature and other com-mon liquids – No correction required.

• For steam, air and other common gases atnormal operating pressures and tempera-tures – Increase SPFL by 7% and increase∆PFL by 14%.

Considering the recommendations in the Check ValveApplications Guide section of this catalog and the cal-culation methods described above, the following spe-cific steps are recommended for sizing check valves foroptimum performance and service life (it is assumedthat the check valve type and pressure class havealready been selected before starting this procedure):

(1) Constant flow rate – If the application involvesa substantially constant flow rate during all operatingconditions, the check valve should be sized to be fullyopen. This may be accomplished by the following pro-cedure:

• Calculate the check valve sizing parameter (SP) forthe application from equation (15). Values of densityfor water, steam, and air are available in Figures 22-24.

If the flow rate is not given in lb/hr (or kg/hr), refer tothe Conversion of Measurement Units section of thiscatalog to make the necessary calculation.

• Select the valve size with the next smaller SPFL valuefrom valve data tables (Tables 1-5 for forged-steelvalves and Tables 10-15 for cast-steel valves). Makenote of the CV, ∆PCO, ∆PFL, Ki, FL and xT values for usein later calculations.

Note: Preferably, there should be a good mar-gin between SP and SPFL to be sure the valvewill be fully open. In the specific case of tilting-disk check valves, it is recommended that SPFL

be less than 0.83 (SP) to be sure that the diskis fully loaded against its stop (particularly if itis close to a flow disturbance).

• Calculate the pressure drop using the BasicCalculation method in equation (1) and the Cxx valueof the valve size selected above. Make the simplechecks described above in section 2.2 (CorrectionsRequired With Large Pressure Drops), and makeappropriate corrections in necessary (this is rarelyneeded for a valve sized for constant flow rate, but thecheck is desirable).

• Evaluate the pressure drop. If it is too high, a largersize or another check valve type should be tried. If it islower than necessary for the application, a smaller andmore economical valve (with a lower SPFL) may beevaluated with assurance that it would also be fullyopen.

2.4 Check Valve Sizing

• Evaluate the crack-open pressure drop (∆PCO) to becertain that the system head available at the initiation offlow will initiate valve opening. Note that, for somevalves, the crack-open pressure drop exceeds the pres-sure drop for full lift. Preceding calculations mightindicate no problem, but it is possible that a valvemight not open at all in a low-head application (e.g.,gravity flow).

(2) Variable flow rate – If the application involvescheck valve operation over a range of flow rates, addi-tional calculations are necessary to assure satisfacto-ry, stable performance at the lowest flow rate withoutcausing excessive pressure drop at the maximumflow condition. This required careful evaluation ofspecific system operating conditions (e.g., are theminimum and maximum flow rates normal operatingconditions or infrequent conditions that occur onlyduring start-up or emergency conditions?).

The following options should be considered inselecting the best stop-check or check valve size forvariable flow applications:

• The best method, if practical, is to size the valve tobe fully open at the minimum flow condition. Thismay be done by following the first two steps listedabove for the constant flow-rate case, but using theminimum flow rate in the sizing parameter (SP) cal-culation.

The only difference is that the pressure-drop calcula-tions and evaluations in the third and fourth stepsmust be repeated at normal and maximum flow rates.If the selected valve size is fully open at the minimumflow rate and has an acceptable pressure drop at themaximum flow condition, it should give good overallperformance.

• Sometimes a change in valve type provides the bestcost-effective solution for variable-flow applications(e.g. use a smaller Flite-Flow® stop-check or checkvalve instead of a 90°-bonnet type to provide full liftat the minimum flow condition, but a high CV for lowpressure drop at maximum flow).

• Operation at less than full lift may have to be con-sidered.

(3) Operation at less than full lift – “HighTurndown” applications sometimes exist on boilersand other process systems that must swing throughperiodic flow changes from start-up, to standby, tomaximum, and back again. In such cases, calcula-tions may not reveal any single valve that will offer asatisfactory compromise assuring full lift and anacceptable pressure drop at both minimum and max-imum flow conditions.

It may be acceptable to permit a check valve to oper-ate at less than fully open at the minimum flow con-dition if such operation is infrequent or not expectedto be sustained continuously for long periods. A valvemay be sized by following the methods above usingthe lowest expected normal sustained flow rate in thesizing parameter (SP) calculation. Pressure drop atnormal and maximum flow rates should then be cal-culated and evaluated.

The acceptability of valve operation at the minimumflow condition should be evaluated as follows:

• Calculate the sizing parameter (SP) at the minimumflow rate and the flow-rate ratio RF from equation (17).The valve operating position (% open) should bedetermined from the proper performance curve(Figures 16-20).

Caution: Check valve operation at less than25% opening is not recommended. Anycheck valve that operates for sustained peri-ods at partial openings should be monitoredor inspected periodically for evidence ofinstability or wear.

• If the minimum operating position is consideredsatisfactory, the pressure drop at the minimum flowcondition may be calculated from equation (18),using the pressure-drop ratio (Rp) determined fromthe proper performance curve.

(4) Alternatives for high turndown applica-tions – If the preceding steps show that the range offlow rates is too large for any single standard checkvalve, consult Edward Valves. Several alternativesmay be considered:

• Either 90°-bonnet or angle-type stop-check or pis-ton-lift check valves may be furnished with a specialdisk with an extended “skirt” as illustrated in Figure15A. This skirt increases flow resistance at low flowrates, producing additional lifting force to help pre-vent operation at small openings.

Of course, the skirt also reduces the CV of the valvesomewhat when it is fully open and increases pres-sure drop at maximum flow. Nevertheless, a specialdisk sometimes solves difficult high turndown prob-lems. A special disk also permits solution of someproblems with existing valves that are “oversized.”

• A stop-check valve may be used with the stem lift-ed just enough to provide a positive stop for the diskat very low flows (e.g., short-term start-up condi-tions). The stem should be lifted with increasing flowrate to maintain the disk-stopping action while pre-venting excessive pressure drop. At normal flowrates, the stem can be lifted to its fully open position,permitting normal check valve function. The stem

may be actuated manually for infrequent start-upoperations, or a motor actuator may be furnished forconvenience if large flow rate variations are expectedto be frequent.

Caution: This arrangement could producecavitation or flow-choking problems if theflow rate is increased substantially withoutlifting the valve stem to compensate.

• A small check or stop-check valve may be installedin parallel with a larger stop-check valve. The small-er valve may be sized for the minimum flow condition,and the larger stop-check may be held closed with thestem until the flow is sufficient to assure adequate lift.If necessary, the stem on the larger valve may beopened gradually with increasing flow to maintaindisk-stopping action as in the example above. Thesmaller valve may be allowed to remain open at high-er flow rates or, if a stop-check type is used, it may beclosed if preferred. Either or both valves may be man-ually actuated or furnished with a motor actuator forconvenience.

2.5 Pipe Reducer Coefficients

The equations in the Flow Performance section of thiscatalog use a piping geometry factor, Fp, to accountfor the effect of pipe reducers attached directly to thevalve. This permits the valve and pipe reducers to betreated as an assembly, i.e., FpCV is the flow coeffi-cient of the valve/pipe reducer combination. Then, thepressure drop in the flow equations is the pressuredrop of the assembly.

This method is also applicable when valves are fur-nished with oversized ends to fit larger diameter pipe.It should also be used to evaluate line-size valvesused in pipe with a lower pressure rating than thevalve, because such pipe may have less wall thick-ness and a larger inside diameter than the valve inletdiameter given in the valve data tabulations.

This section provides equations for calculation of thepiping geometry factor, Fp, which should be usedeven in Basic Calculations when there is a significantdifference between the pipe diameter and valve inletdiameter (d).

In addition, other coefficients (K1, FL, xT) are affect-ed by the presence of pipe reducers. Equations arealso provided for correction of these terms, which arerequired only when evaluating significant valve-to-pipe diameter mismatch.

Note: These equations apply only where thevalve diameter is less than the connectingpipe diameter.

Specific Gravity – Liquids

Gl =density of liquid

density of water at reference condition

Commonly used relations are:

Gl =density of liquid

=� (lb/ft3)

density of water at 60°F 62.38 (lb/ft3)and atmospheric pressure

and

Gl =density of liquid

=� (kg/m3)

density of water at 4°C 1000 (kg/m3)and atmospheric pressure

For practical purposes, these specific gravities maybe used interchangeably, as the reference densitiesare nearly equivalent.

Specific gravities are sometimes given with two tem-peratures indicated, e.g.,

Gl60°F , Gl

15.5°C , Gl 60°F/60°60°F 4°C

The upper temperature is that of the liquid whosespecific gravity is given, and the lower value indicates the water temperature of the reference den-sity. If no temperatures are shown, assume that thecommonly used relations apply.

Specific Gravity – Gases

density of gas

Gg = (at pressure and temperature of interest)

density of air(at same pressure and temperature)

Because the relation between density, pressure andtemperature does not always behave in an ideal way(i.e., ideally, density is proportional to pressuredivided by temperature, in absolute units), use of theabove relation requires that the pressure and tem-perature of interest be specified. This means that thespecific gravity of a gas as defined may vary withpressure and temperature (due to “compressibility” effects).

Frequently, specific gravity is defined using:

Gg =molecular weight of gas

=Mw

molecular weight of air 28.96

If this relation is used to calculate density, one mustbe careful to consider “compressibility” effects.When the pressure and temperature of interest are ator near “standard” conditions (14.73 psia, 60°F) or“normal” conditions (1.0135 bar abs, 0°C), specific gravities calculated from either of the aboverelations are essentially equal.

3. Edward Valve Design Standards and Features

Engineering and research efforts – both analytical andexperimental – have contributed to innovative leader-ship by Edward Valves through the introduction orpractical development of some major industrial valv-ing features:

• Integral hardfaced seats in globe and angle valvesto permit compact valve designs and to resist erosionand wear.

• Impactor handwheels and handles to permit tightshutoff of manually operated globe and angle valves.

• Body-guided globe and angle valve disks to mini-mize wear and ensure alignment with seats for tightsealing.

• Inclined-bonnet globe valves with streamlined flowpassages to minimize pressure drop due to flow.

• Equalizers for large check and stop-check valves toensure full lift at moderate flow rates and to preventdamage due to instability.

• Compact pressure-seal bonnet joints to eliminatemassive bolted flanges on large, high-pressurevalves:

– First with wedge-shaped metal gaskets withsoft coatings, optimized over more than fourdecades to provide tight sealing in most ser-vices.

– Now, for the severest services, with com-posite gaskets using flexible graphite andspecial anti-extrusion rings to assure tightsealing, even with severe temperature tran-sients – overcomes need for field re-tighten-ing and eases disassembly for maintenance.

• Optimized stem-packing chambers and packing-material combinations to ensure tight stem sealing:

– First with asbestos-based materials andthen with asbestos-free materials.

• Hermetically sealed globe valves with seal-weldeddiaphragm stem seals to prevent stem leakage in crit-ical applications, including nuclear.

• Gate valves with flexible double-wedge construc-tion to ensure tight sealing at both low and high pres-sures and to prevent sticking difficulties when open-ing.

• Qualified stored-energy actuators for quick-closingvalves in safety-related nuclear-plant applications –and qualified valve-actuator combinations that areused in main-steam isolation service throughout theworld.

Edward valve expertise, acquired over more than 85years, is shared with national and internationalcodes-and-standards committees and other technicalsocieties and groups whose activities influenceindustrial valves. This cooperation has included par-ticipation in the development of every issue ofASME/ANSI B16.34 as well as most issues ofASME/ANSI B16.5 (Pipe Flanges and FlangedFittings), which applied to steel valves beforeASME/ANSI B16.34 was first issued in 1973. EdwardValves representatives have also been active in prepa-ration of ISO (International Standards Organization)standards. In addition, Edward representatives haveparticipated where appropriate with trade organiza-tions such as EPRI, INPO and various nuclear power-plant owners’ groups in addressing valve issues.

Edward valves are designed, rated, manufactured andtested in accordance with the following standardswhere applicable:

• ASME B16.34-1996 – Valves: flanged, threadedand welding end.

• ASME/ANSI B16.10-1992 – Face-to-face and end-to-end dimensions of valves.

• ASME B16.11 – Forged Fittings, Socket-weldingand Threaded.

• ASME Boiler and Pressure-Vessel Code –Applicable sections including Nuclear Section III.

• ASME and ASTM Material Specifications –Applicable sections.

• MSS Standard Practices – Where appropriate:Edward sealability acceptance criteria are equal to orbetter than those in MSS SP-61.

Users should note that ASME/ANSI B16.34-1996 hasa much broader scope than the previous editions.While this standard previously covered only flanged-end and butt welding-end valves, the 1988 editioncovered socket welding-end and threaded-end valvesas well. With this revision, the standard now address-es practically all types, materials and end configura-tions of valves commonly used in pressure-pipingsystems. All Edward valves in this catalog with a list-ed class number (e.g. Class 1500) comply withASME B16.34.

In addition to the standards listed, special require-ments such as those of API and NACE are consideredon application.

Edward valve-pressure ratings are tabulated in pres-sure-versus-temperature format. The temperaturesrange from -20°F (-29°C) to the maximum tempera-ture permitted for each specific design and pressure-boundary material. Typically, pressure ratingsdecrease with increasing temperature, approximatelyin proportion to decreases in material strength.

Valves in this catalog with a listed class number arerated in accordance with ASME B16.34-1996. Thisstandard establishes allowable working pressure rat-ings for each class number and material. These rat-ings also vary with class definitions as describedbelow.

Standard Class (Ref: Paragraph 2.1.1 of ASMEB16.34-1996) – These lowest ratings apply to allflanged-end valves as well as any threaded-end orwelding-end valves that do not meet the requirementsfor other classes. Typically, ratings for these valvesare consistent with ratings listed for flanges andflanged fittings of similar materials in ASME/ANSIB16.5-1988.

Special Class (Ref: Paragraph 2.1.2 of ASMEB16.34-1996) – These ratings apply to threaded-endor welding-end valves which meet all requirementsfor a Standard Class rating and in addition meet spe-cial nondestructive examination (NDE) requirements.Valve bodies and bonnets are examined by volumet-ric and surface examination methods and upgradedas required. Pressure ratings for Special Class valvesare higher than those for Standard Class valves (par-ticularly at elevated temperatures) because of theimproved assurance of soundness of pressureboundaries and because they are not subject to thelimitations of flanged and gasketed end joints.

Limited Class (Ref: Paragraph 2.1.3 of ASMEB16.34-1996) – These ratings apply only to thread-ed-end or welding-end valves in sizes 2-1/2 andsmaller, with generally cylindrical, internal-wettedpressure boundaries. Limited Class valves meet allrequirements for Standard Class valves, and bodydesigns must also satisfy special reinforcement rulesto compensate for irregularities in shape. Typically,the regions of minimum wall thickness in thesevalves are very localized, so minor plasticity in suchregions at high temperature will not adversely affectvalve geometry. Pressure ratings for Limited Classvalves are the same as those for Special Class valvesat lower temperatures, but Limited Class ratings arehigher at very high temperatures [above 900°F(482°C) for ferritic steels and above 1050° (565°C)for austenitic steels].

3. Edward Valve Design Standards and Features (con’t.)

It should be understood that flanged-end valves canbe supplied only as Standard Class valves withnumerically even pressure-class designations (300,600, 900, 1500, 2500), for consistency with matingflanges in piping systems. Threaded-end or welding-end valves can be supplied with the same designa-tions or as Class 4500 (for which there is no standardfor flanged-end connections). In addition, threaded-end or welding-end valves can be furnished withintermediate ratings or class designations (ref: para-graph 2.1.4 of ASME B16.34-1996), up to Class2500 for threaded ends and up to Class 4500 forwelding-ends. For example, Class 2680 welding-endUnivalves‚ can be applied in superheater-drain appli-cations that could not be satisfied with a Class 2500valve rating.

Series or CWPA few valves in this catalog with “Series” or “CWP”designations are designed, rated, manufactured andtested to Edward proprietary standards. These valvedesigns, qualified by decades of successful field per-formance, will provide safe and reliable service inapplications where an ASME/ANSI rating is notrequired by a piping code or other specifications.

These valve designs and ratings are generally, but notcompletely, in conformance with recognized nationalstandards (e.g., some employ high-strength materi-als not listed in standards). These valves have a his-tory of excellent performance and safety, and theymay be applied with confidence in applications whereASME/ANSI ratings are not required.

Notes:1. While Edward cast-steel valves describedin this catalog have even listed ratings (e.g.,1500), many designs provide more wallthickness than required in critical areas.Accordingly, welding-end valves can often beoffered with intermediate ratings (ref:Paragraph 6.1.4 of ASME B16.34-1996)moderately higher than the nominal class rat-ings. With appropriate revisions to testingprocedures, this can allow somewhat higherpressure ratings than those listed in the tab-

ulations. Consult Edward Valves and provideinformation on specific required design pres-sure and temperature conditions.

2. Pressure ratings for carbon steel (A105and A216 WCB) valves are tabulated for tem-peratures through 1000°F (538°C), which isconsistent with ASME B16.34-1996. Asnoted in that standard, these materials arepermissible but not recommended for pro-longed usage at above about 800°F (427°C).This precaution is related to the possibilitythat carbides in carbon steel may be convert-ed to graphite.

3. Other codes or standards applicable topiping systems may be more restrictive thanASME B16.34-1996 in limiting allowablepressures for valves. For example, ASMEB31.1-1995 (Power Piping) does not permituse of carbon steel (A105 and A216 WCB) atdesign temperatures above 800°F (427°C).Users must consider all codes or regulationsapplicable to their systems in selectingEdward valves.

4. The maximum tabulated temperatures atwhich pressure ratings are given for Edwardvalves are in some cases less than the maxi-mum temperatures given in ASME B16.34-1996 for valves of the same material. Themaximum tabulated temperatures in this cat-alog may reflect limitations of materials usedfor other valve parts (e.g., stems). Use ofEdward valves at temperatures above themaximum tabulated values may result indegradation and is not recommended.

The time-proven Edward pressure-seal bonnet sealsmore effectively as pressure increases, because thepressure forces the sealing elements into closer con-tact. Metal pressure-seal gaskets with soft platingemploy optimum contact angles and materials foreach applicable valve type, size and pressure-classrating. The gaskets yield initially under bolting loadand then under pressure, to provide excellent sealingcontact.

Newest designs for highest pressure/temperatureservices employ improved composite pressure-sealgaskets with flexible graphite rings. Edward leader-ship in proof-testing of flexible graphite stem pack-ings clearly showed the superior sealing characteris-tics of this material, and continued research led to thedevelopment of a test-proven bonnet closure thatprovides highest sealing integrity. The compositepressure-seal provides excellent sealing at low andhigh pressures, even under severe pressure/tempera-ture transients. It provides easier disassembly formaintenance, seals over minor scratches and doesnot depend on re-tightening under pressure after re-assembly.

3. Edward Valve Design Standards and Features (con’t.)

Integrity of seating surfaces on bodies, wedges anddisks in gate, globe, and check valves is essential fortight shutoff. Valve body seats must be hardfaced, andwedges and disks must either be hardfaced or madefrom an equivalent base material.

The standard seating material for most Edward valvesis cobalt-based Stellite 21,® which has excellentmechanical properties and an exceptional perfor-mance history. As compared to Stellite 6,® whichwas used in many early Edward valves and is stillused in many competitive valves, Stellite 21® ismore ductile and impact resistant. These propertiesprovide superior resistance to cracking of valve seat-ing surfaces in service.

Stellite 21 is used either as a complete part madefrom a casting (as in Univalve® disks and smallEquiwedge® gate valve wedges) or as a welded hard-surfacing deposit. Depending on valve size and type,hardsurfacing material is applied by a process thatassures highest integrity (PTA, MIG, etc.).

While the as-deposited (or as-cast) hardness ofStellite 21 is somewhat lower than that of Stellite 6,Stellite 21 has a work-hardening coefficient that isfive times that of Stellite 6. This provides essentiallyequivalent hardness after machining, grinding, andexposure to initial seating stresses. In addition, lowfriction coefficients attainable with Stellite 21 providevaluable margins in assuring valve operation withreasonable effort or actuator sizing.

The properties of Stellite 21 also provide an advan-tage to the user long after a valve leaves the Edwardplant. If a large valve seat is severely damaged in alocalized area, as may occur due to closing on foreignobjects, the seat may be repaired locally and refin-ished, in such cases, where a valve cannot be ade-quately preheated before welding, a Stellite 6 seatmay crack during the repair process – requiring eitherremoval of the valve from the line or in situ removalreplacement of the complete seat.

Some Edward valves have used solid disks made ofhardened ASTM A-565 Grade 616 or MSI 615 stain-less steel. This corrosion-resistant alloy has beenproven in seating and erosion tests and in service.This material can be furnished in certain valves fornuclear-plant services where reduced cobalt is desir-able. Similar iron-base trim materials are used inproduction of certain standard valves. Extensiveresearch on other cobalt-free valve trim materials hasalso identified other alloys which provide good per-formance under many service conditions. ConsultEdward Valves about any special trim requirements.

Stem sealing is an extremely important valve perfor-mance feature, since seal leakage can represent ener-gy loss, a loss of product and a potential environ-mental or safety hazard. Consequently, Edward stopand stop-check valves employ stem packings thathave been qualified by extensive testing.

The search for improved sealing performance was aprimary reason for seeking out new stem-packingmaterials to replace asbestos-based packings. Thedemand of many valve users to discontinue use ofasbestos due to health risks was an important sec-ondary reason. Since there are no simple laboratorytests that will predict sealing performance based onmeasurable properties of packing materials, hundredsof tests have been necessary with various packings invalves or valve mockups.

Some packings required frequent adjustments due towear, extrusion or breakdown, and some could not bemade to seal at all after relatively brief testing. Allstandard Edward stop and stop-check valves nowemploy flexible graphite packing which providesexcellent stem sealing. However, the key to its suc-cess involves retaining the graphitic material withspecial, braided end rings to prevent extrusion.Various end rings are used, depending on the valvepressure class and expected service-temperaturerange. All Edward valves assembled since January1986 have been asbestos-free.
