Two-Way-Tight Option Available With New Valve Design

June 22, 2011
New V-port segment valve design offers the possibility of combining control and on/off performance in a single valve assembly.

Metso adds a new valve design derived from its traditional V-port segment valve series. The new two-way-tight, single-seat design is suitable for a wide range of applications and is available for R-series valves. The optional two-way-tight feature covers the size range from DN25 up to DN700 (1-inch up to 28 inches) in all available pressure classes.

The new V-port segment valve design offers the possibility of combining control and on/off performance in a single valve assembly. The standard bidirectional shut-off classifications of the V-port segment valves are according to 10x ISO Rate D / FCI 70.2 Class IV; optional improved tightness classes are ISO Rate D / FCI 70.2 Class V @ dp 20 bar.

The two-way-tight option is available for both RA and RE valve series for all standard pressure classes and flange drillings. It is also available in all standard body materials.
