Emerson Introduces Compact Fisher®
Design D3 On-Off Control Valve for High Pressure Applications
New
valve is ideal as dump valve for gas separators and scrubbers
MARSHALLTOWN, IOWA (November 27, 2006) --
Emerson Process Management
introduces the new
Fisher®
compact Design D3, high pressure on-off control valve—a globe
style valve ideal for use as a dump valve on gas separators and
scrubbers. It is also well suited for other high pressure
applications in natural gas production, compression, and
processing.
The Design D3 FloPro valve is
available in 1- and 2-inch Class 900 NPT end connections and
2-inch Class 600 raised face flanged end connections. With its
ENVIRO-SEAL® packing technology, the D3 valve offers
a long stem seal life. Rugged construction details, like
heavy-duty valve plug guiding and optional ST (super-tough)
Carbide trim, provide a long service life. Fisher ST Carbide
trim is designed specifically for severe service applications.
Low temperature-tolerant materials used in construction allow
applications as low as -46°
C (-50°
F). The standard trim, valve body, and bonnet meet the
metallurgical requirements of NACE MR0175/ISO 15156.
Featuring easy-maintenance,
the trim and packing can be maintained by removing the patented
deep-bore hammer nut and lifting the actuator/bonnet assembly
off the valve without disassembling the actuator. Pins mounted
in the valve bonnet body help ensure the bonnet disengages from
the valve body as the hammer nut is loosened, while the threads
are still engaged. This allows internal pressure to be vented,
while keeping the actuator retained to the valve body.
Adjustment of the flow
capacity without changing the trim is field selectable. A
single trim set can be used for more than one flow requirement,
reducing inventory and maintenance cost.
The
new Design D3 valve compliments three other recent oil and gas
control equipment introductions from Emerson, including: the
Design D4 valve for throttling control applications; the Type D2
control valve for on-off dump applications; and the Type L2
liquid level controller for high pressure liquid level
applications.
