Working Principle of Pneumatic Gate Valve

Brief introduction of pneumatic gate valve:
The pneumatic gate valve is equipped with a pneumatic actuator, which is driven by compressed air to control the gate valve. The valve core is composed of a wedge-shaped structure and a parallel structure, which is suitable for the emergency cut-off and discharge of gas and liquid pipelines.

Working principle of pneumatic gate valve:
When using the air source to operate the gate valve, the small handle of the manual device must be turned to the pneumatic position to open and close the nut and the screw rod. When the compressed air enters from the upper pipeline of the cylinder, the piston and the piston rod in the cylinder are pushed straight When the compressed air enters from the lower pipe, the gas pushes the piston and piston rod in the cylinder to move upwards, and at the same time drives the valve stem to move upwards to open the valve. When there is no air source, the screw rod and the opening and closing nut can be used to open and close the valve. First, the upper and lower intake pipes of the cylinder are in the exhaust state, and the small handle of the manual part is in the manual position, so that the opening and closing nut and the screw are in the manual position. In the normal meshing state, turn the large handwheel at the manual part at this time. When the handwheel is turned clockwise, the valve is closed, and when the handwheel is turned counterclockwise, the valve is opened. When the air source is introduced from the upper air inlet, the valve stem drives the valve plate to move downward, and the valve is closed.
When the air source is introduced from the lower air inlet, the valve stem drives the valve plate to move upward, and the valve opens.

full bore ball valve vs reduced bore ball valve

The difference and selection of full bore ball valve and reduced bore ball valve
Ball valve is currently the most widely used mechanical product in all valve markets. It is mainly composed of valve body, valve seat, ball, valve stem and transmission device. The ball core is driven to rotate through the actuator to achieve the function of switching or adjusting. . In the chemical industry, environmental protection, water treatment, urban construction, machinery, and food industries, it is widely used and very popular! there are Electric ball valve and Pneumatic ball valve, and other actuated ball valves.

There are many types of ball valves, which can be combined into various products with different functions through different structures, connection methods, pressure levels, drive forms, etc., but from the most basic point of view, ball valves have two types: full-diameter ball valves and reduced-diameter ball valves. The difference between major categories. Generally speaking, when the inner diameter of the valve ball is less than or equal to 85% of the inner diameter of the ball valve port, it is called a reduced-diameter ball valve, and when the inner diameter of the ball valve is greater than 95% of the inner diameter of the ball valve port, it is called a full-bore ball valve. So what is the difference between the two in the selection or application?
The definition of full bore ball valve and reduced bore ball valve:

fixed ball valve

fixed ball valve

1. The full-bore ball valve has equal-width flow channels, that is to say, the size of the orifices from inflow to outflow is the same, and its size cannot be less than the value specified by the standard, which is roughly equivalent to the nominal diameter of the specification, such as DN50 full-diameter The diameter of the ball valve flow path also needs to be about 50;
2. The inlet of the reduced diameter ball valve is wider than the diameter of the flow path, and the actual diameter of the flow path is about one specification smaller than this specification. For example, the diameter of the DN50 reduced diameter ball valve is about 38, which is roughly equivalent to the specification of DN40. One specification is reduced within DN250 and two specifications are reduced from 250-600. Above 600 depends on the actual situation.
Applicable medium for full bore ball valve and reduced bore ball valve:
1. The full-bore ball valve is generally used on pipelines for conveying viscous and slagging media. Because of its low fluid resistance, it can be said that there is basically no flow resistance, and it is convenient for regular wax scrapers to pass through.
2. Reduced diameter ball valve is suitable for conveying gas or pipelines with physical properties similar to water. Because its weight is about 30% lighter than a full-diameter ball valve, and its flow resistance is only 1/7 of that of a stop valve of the same diameter. about. It is helpful to reduce the pipeline load and reduce the cost.
Applicable process for full bore ball valve and reduced bore ball valve:
1. For pipelines that require regular pigging, no matter what kind of medium is transported, full-diameter ball valves must be used. The medium passing through the full-bore ball valve will not reduce the flow, and the flow resistance is small, which is an ideal product for pipeline control, especially for strict working conditions. Especially when the main line in the oil pipeline and gas pipeline needs to be buried underground, full-diameter welded ball valves must be used.
2. The reduced diameter ball valve is suitable for some working conditions such as low requirements and small convection resistance requirements. When the inner diameter of the valve is greater than 80% of the inner diameter of the pipe end, it has almost no effect on the pipeline fluid passing capacity. Many valves have a reduced diameter, which is generally controlled within 0.8. On the one hand, the reduced diameter reduces the flow capacity of the valve, that is, the Kv value of the valve, and increases the pressure drop at both ends of the valve, causing energy loss. That said, there is not much impact, and it may increase the erosion of the pipeline.
The advantages and disadvantages of full-bore ball valves and reduced-bore ball valves are compared:
1. Installation space: The reduced-diameter ball valve has a small volume, so its installation space requirements are smaller. Because its weight is about 30% lighter than a full-diameter ball valve, it is beneficial to reduce the pipeline load, reduce the transportation load and reduce the cost.
2. Cost: Reduced-diameter ball valves are one grade lower than full-diameter ball valves. Considering the cost performance, it is generally accepted internationally that adjacent pipe diameters use the same ball-diameter valve body. For example, dn32 and dn40, dn50 and dn63, dn90 and dn110, dn160 and dn200, dn250 and dn315 use the same sphere.
Note: Since the inner diameter of the reduced diameter ball valve is small, the torque on the valve stem is small, which is more suitable for prolonging the service life of the valve switch. Especially the low-torque design of large-diameter valves. However, the diameter cannot be reduced too much, otherwise the system resistance will increase. However, if the diameter is not reduced, the purchase cost will be increased, and the control characteristics of the valve will generally be reduced, which will make the adjustment effect worse. For example, if the regulating valve is always used at a small opening, the service life of the valve will be reduced.

Application of low temperature butterfly valve

Article title: Application of low temperature triple eccentric butterfly valve
With the rapid development of industrial technology, more stringent requirements have been put forward for valves, especially for butterfly valves used in low temperature media. In addition to meeting the performance of general valves, it is more important that butterfly valves seal under low temperature conditions. Reliability, flexibility of action and some other special requirements for cryogenic valves. Now combined with its structural characteristics, a brief introduction to the performance of the cryogenic butterfly valve is given. Remarks: The cryogenic butterfly valve we are talking about here specifically refers to the low temperature triple eccentric butterfly valve.

triple offset valve parts-after-cryogenic process

triple offset valve parts-after-cryogenic process

Requirements for sealing performance of low temperature triple eccentric butterfly valve:
There are two main reasons for the leakage of the low temperature triple eccentric butterfly valve, one is internal leakage; the other is external leakage.
1. Internal leakage of butterfly valve:
The main reason for the internal leakage of the valve is the deformation of the sealing pair in the low temperature state. When the temperature of the medium drops to a phase change of the material, the volume changes, which causes the sealing surface with high grinding accuracy to warp and deform, resulting in poor low-temperature sealing. We conducted a low temperature test on the DN250 valve. The medium was liquid nitrogen (-196 ℃) and the butterfly plate material was 1Cr18Ni9Ti (without low temperature treatment). It was found that the sealing surface warped and deformed up to about

0.12mm, which is the main cause of internal leakage. And if the plane seal of the butterfly valve is changed to a cone seal. The valve seat is an oblique cone ellipse sealing surface, which forms a sealing pair with a round elastic sealing ring embedded on the butterfly plate. The sealing ring can float radially in the butterfly plate groove. When the valve is closed, the elastic sealing ring first contacts the short axis of the elliptical sealing surface. As the valve stem rotates, the sealing ring is gradually pushed inward, forcing the elastic ring to contact the long axis of the oblique cone surface, and finally the elastic sealing ring All contact with the oval sealing surface. Its sealing is achieved by the deformation of the elastic ring. Therefore, when the valve body or butterfly plate is deformed at low temperature, it will be absorbed and compensated by the elastic sealing ring, and leakage and jamming will not occur. When the valve is opened, this elastic deformation disappears immediately, and there is basically no relative friction during the opening and closing process, so the service life is long.
2. Leakage of butterfly valve:
One is that when the valve and the pipeline are connected by flanges, leakage occurs due to the unsynchronized contraction and relaxation of the connecting gasket, connecting bolts, and connecting materials at low temperatures. Therefore, we changed the connection between the valve body and the pipeline from a flange connection to a welded structure to avoid low temperature leakage. The second is leakage at the valve stem and packing. Generally, most valve packing adopts F4 because of its good self-sliding performance, low friction coefficient (friction coefficient for steel f=0.05 ~ 0.1), and unique chemical stability, so it is widely used. However, F4 also has shortcomings. First, the tendency of cold flow is large; second, the linear expansion coefficient is large, and the cold shrinkage at low temperature causes leakage, which causes a large amount of ice at the valve stem, so that the valve fails to open. The low-temperature triple-eccentric butterfly valve developed for this purpose adopts a self-shrinking sealing structure, that is, taking advantage of the large expansion coefficient of F4, and achieves the purpose of sealing at room temperature and low temperature through the reserved gap.
Design requirements for low temperature triple eccentric butterfly valve body and stem bushing:
1. The structure and shape of the cryogenic valve shell. The correct selection of materials is of great significance to the normal and reliable operation of the valve. Compared with the stop valve and gate valve, the structural characteristics of the butterfly valve not only avoid the irregular shape and uneven shell wall thickness, which can cause problems at low temperatures. Due to the small size of the butterfly valve, the shape of the valve body is basically symmetrical, so the heat capacity is small; the pre-cooling consumption is also small; the shape is regular and it is convenient to take measures to keep the valve cold. ,
2. Selection of stem bushing: Some low-temperature triple-eccentric butterfly valves are in operation, the rotating parts of the valve are sticky, and seizure occurs from time to time. The main reason is: unreasonable selection of matching materials, too small pre-cooling clearance, and processing Causes such as low accuracy. In the development of cryogenic valves, a series of measures have been taken to prevent the occurrence of the above phenomena. For the upper and lower bushings of the valve stem, SF-1 type composite bearings with low friction coefficient and self-lubricating properties are selected, which can be suitable for some special needs of cryogenic valves. The metal-sealed butterfly valve has the characteristics that some ordinary valves do not have, especially the small flow resistance, reliable sealing, rapid opening and closing, and long service life. The triple eccentric metal sealing butterfly valve is sealed by the deformation of the elastic ring, so it does not need to rely on the force of the medium, so it can be used for two-way sealing.

7 types of flange sealing surface: FF, RF, M, FM, T, G, RTJ

Flanged butterfly valve has a flange on the valve, and bolts are used to connect the flanges at both ends of the valve to the pipe flange. Do you know all the 7 types of flange sealing surfaces? FF, RF, MF, M, T, G, RTJ
The flange sealing surface basically has:

Full plane: FF
Raised face: RF
Concave/female: FM
Convex/Male: M
Tenon: T
Groove surface: G
Ring connection surface RTJ (RJ)  types, according to the different working conditions, medium, pressure, specifications, temperature, etc., so the selected types are not the same. Let’s get to know the types of these flange sealing surfaces together!
FF-full plane:
Flat Face Full Face type sealing surface is completely flat, suitable for occasions where the pressure is not high and the medium is non-toxic.

flange FF

flange FF 

RF-raised face:
The Raised Face type of sealing surface is the most widely used among several types, and the most commonly used one. The international standards, European system and domestic standards are all fixed heights, but in the American standard flange, it should be noted that the height of high pressure will increase the sealing surface. There are also many types of gaskets used. Gaskets suitable for raised face sealing surface flanges include various non-metallic flat gaskets, coated gaskets; metal-wrapped gaskets; spiral wound gaskets (including outer ring or inner and outer ring).

flange RF

flange RF

Convex/Male: M
Concave /female: FM
The two types of sealing surfaces, Male Face and Female Face, are a pair, one female and one male. They must be used together. They are easy to align and prevent the gasket from being extruded. Suitable for occasions with higher pressure.
The suitable sealing gaskets for the concave-convex sealing surface include: various non-metallic flat gaskets and coated gaskets; metal-clad gaskets; basic type or winding stopper with inner ring, etc.
T-tenon
G-groove surface
Tongue Face and Groove Face are similar to the concave-convex surface. They are also a male and female matched sealing surface type, and they are also used in pairs. The gasket is located in the annular groove and is restricted by the metal walls on both sides. It can prevent the gasket from being compressed and deformed and squeezed into the pipeline. Since the gasket is not in direct contact with the fluid medium in the pipe, it is less eroded or corroded by the fluid medium, so it can be used for high pressure, flammable, explosive, and toxic mediums that require strict sealing. This kind of sealing surface gasket has good installation and neutrality, but it is difficult to process the sealing surface. It is easy to damage the sealing surface when replacing the gasket, and the flange must be separated in the axial direction during installation and disassembly. Therefore, consideration should be given to the pipeline design. It is possible to separate the flange in the axial direction.
Suitable gaskets for the sealing surface of the tongue and groove surface include: various metal and non-metal flat gaskets, metal-clad gaskets and basic spiral wound gaskets.

flange TG-

flange TG-

RTJ(RJ)-Ring connection surface
The flange of the Ring Joint Face seal is also a narrow-face flange, and an annular trapezoidal groove is opened on the flange surface as the flange sealing surface, which is the same as the tongue-and-groove flange. The flange must be separated in the axial direction during installation and disassembly. Therefore, the possibility of separating the flange in the axial direction should be considered in the pipeline design.
The sealing surface is specially designed to cooperate with solid metal gaskets processed into octagonal or elliptical shapes from metal materials to achieve a sealed connection. Since the metal ring gasket can be based on the inherent characteristics of various metals, the sealing performance of this sealing surface is good, and the installation requirements are not too strict. It is suitable for high temperature and high pressure working conditions, but the processing accuracy of the sealing surface is relatively high.

European countries mainly use “column/cone” matching threads; countries outside Europe mainly use “cone/cone” matching threads. The inspection gauges for the two types of threads are somewhat different; the current ISO inch seal pipe thread gauge standard (ISO 7- 2:2000) is designed according to the “column/cone” coordination system.

The complete mark of inch unsealed pipe thread is composed of thread feature code, thread size code, pitch diameter tolerance grade code and rotation direction code.

The characteristic code of inch unsealed cylindrical thread is: G

For inch non-sealed cylindrical internal threads, the codes for the tolerance grades of the median diameter are omitted and not marked; while the codes for the pitch diameter and metric grades of the inch non-sealed cylindrical external threads are A and B respectively.

When indicating the thread pair of the inch unsealed pipe thread, only the marking code of the external thread is marked.

Example:

Right-handed, non-sealed cylindrical female thread with size code 2: G2

Class A with size code 3, right-handed, unsealed cylindrical external thread: G3A

Grade B with size code 4, left-handed, unsealed cylindrical external thread: G4 B-LH

Thread pair consisting of a right-handed, non-sealed cylindrical internal thread and a grade A cylindrical external thread with a dimension code of 2: G2A

The inner thread is processed by pipe thread taps, and the outer thread has die.

Classification and introduction of pipe thread-(2)

“Cylinder/cone” and “cone/cone”. Two inch seal pipe threads use different thread ring gauges (cylindrical thread ring gauge and tapered thread ring gauge) and thread plug gauge (the position of the datum plane is different, the two datum planes are different Half-tooth apart). Pipe threads that pass the inspection in European countries may be unqualified if they are inspected by countries outside of Europe. In international trade, you must pay attention to this difference, otherwise there may be waste. Before 1994, the ISO standard for sealed pipe threads and their gauges The standard is designed according to the “cone/cone” coordination system. China’s imperial sealed pipe thread products can directly enter the international market. However, the pipe thread products of European countries are in a disadvantageous position. After 2000, ISO’s imperial seal The pipe thread standard and its gauge standard are designed according to the “column/cone” matching question system. Our country’s original inch seal pipe thread products will encounter difficulties when entering the international market. For this reason, China revised the inch seal pipe in 2000 Thread national standard. Change the original one thread standard into two thread standards to remind the designer to pay attention to the difference and correct selection of the two mating threads. Japan still insisted on adopting 1994 when it revised the inch seal pipe thread standard in 1999 The ISO standard a year ago. Therefore, the international inch seal pipe thread market after 2000 is more complicated, and domestic

manufacturers must be careful.

Inch sealing pipe thread is a general purpose sealing pipe thread. Sealing filler should be added to the thread pair during use. Its characteristics are economical and the processing accuracy requirements are moderate. Without sealing fillers, it can ensure that the sealed connection thread is dry sealed Pipe thread. There is no dry seal pipe thread in the inch pipe thread system.

Sealed pipe threads have two functions: mechanical connection and sealing; non-sealed pipe threads have only one function of mechanical connection. Therefore, the accuracy of sealed pipe threads is stricter than that of unsealed pipe threads. Some people see unsealed pipe threads The tolerance of the pitch diameter is half of the tolerance of the sealed pipe thread. It is considered that the accuracy of the unsealed pipe thread is higher than that of the sealed pipe thread. This view is incorrect. The sealed pipe thread has requirements for the accuracy of the tooth shape. Its large diameter, The tolerances of the pitch diameter and the minor diameter are the same; the flank angle and pitch error have a greater impact on the sealing performance. The non-sealed pipe thread basically has no requirements for the accuracy of the tooth form. The top diameter tolerance is greater than the pitch diameter tolerance; the bottom diameter There is no tolerance requirement. In addition, some people think that it is possible to use non-sealed cylindrical internal threads and sealed cylindrical external threads to form a fit. This view is also wrong. This is equivalent to relaxing the accuracy requirements of sealed internal threads, and the sealing of pipe threads There may be a problem.

Due to differences in the use of sealed pipe threads, processing accuracy, assembly and testing techniques, the pipe thread standard cannot guarantee that all threaded parts that meet the standard can be sealed. In the imperial sealed pipe thread standard, a unified thread item cannot be proposed. The accuracy requirements of the parameters. These individual thread parameters have a direct impact on the sealing performance. The fundamental way to solve the problem is to formulate their own internal control measures for their specific products. Each industry or company formulates its own internal control measures. The internal control indicators of these parameters are generally confidential. Companies in other industries are not universal, and manufacturers must have a clear understanding of this. Sealing pipe thread standards are not omnipotent, and sealing problems may require manufacturers to pay attention to them. Before 1987, China did not have American and British pipe thread standards. But In production, these two internationally commonly used pipe thread standards cannot be avoided. For this reason, the old mechanical drawing standards once stipulated the marking codes for American and British pipe threads. These thread codes are derived from the Chinese Pinyin alphabet, and have not considered the foreign Whether the standard codes of standard pipe threads are consistent. Since this standard only specifies the thread codes and not the thread parameters, the same thread code may have different thread parameters in different companies or industries. There is no basis for judging who is right and who is wrong when there is a scrap .From 1987 to 1991, China promulgated the British pipe thread standard. From then on, the pipe thread code and marking should comply with the pipe thread standard. The pipe thread code specified in the old mechanical drawing standard should be abolished immediately.

Classification and introduction of pipe thread-(1)

Pipe thread is a thread used for connection on the pipe wall to the valves. There are 55-degree unsealed pipe threads and 55-degree sealed pipe threads. Mainly used to connect pipes to make the internal and external threads fit tightly. There are two types which are straight pipes thread and tapered pipes thread.
Common pipe threads mainly include the following types: NPT, PT, G, etc.

NPT thread picture

NPT thread picture

1) NPT is the abbreviation of National (American) Pipe Thread, which belongs to the American standard 60-degree tapered pipe thread and is used in North America. Refer to GB/T12716-1991 for the national standard.

2) PT (BSPT) is the abbreviation of Pipe Thread. It is a 55-degree sealed tapered pipe thread. It belongs to the Wyeth thread family. It is mostly used in Europe and the Commonwealth countries. It is often used in the water and gas pipe industry. The taper is 1:16. Refer to GB/ T7306-2000. The domestic name is ZG.

3) G is a 55-degree non-sealed pipe thread, which belongs to the Wyeth thread family. Marked as G stands for cylindrical thread. Refer to GB/T7307-2001 for the national standard.

Metric and inch threads

Metric threads are expressed by pitch, while American and British threads are expressed by the number of threads per inch;

Metric thread is 60-degree equilateral profile, inch thread is isosceles 55-degree profile, and American thread is isosceles 60-degree profile;

Use metric units (such as mm) for metric threads, and use imperial units (such as inches) for American and British threads;

“Insiders” usually use “minutes” to refer to the thread size, one inch equals 8 points, 1/4 inch equals 2 points, and so on.

In addition, there are: ISO—Metric Thread Standard 60°; UN—Unified Thread Standard 60°; API—American Petroleum Pipe Thread Standard 60°; W—British Wyeth Thread Standard 55°.

The difference between various threads

NPT, PT, G  are all pipe threads.

NPT is the abbreviation of National (American) Pipe Thread, which belongs to the American standard 60-degree tapered pipe thread and is used in North America. National standards can be found in GB/T12716-1991

PT is the abbreviation of Pipe Thread. It is a 55-degree sealed tapered pipe thread. It belongs to the Wyeth thread family and is mostly used in Europe and Commonwealth countries. Commonly used in water and gas pipe industry, the taper is 1:16. National standards can be found in GB/T7306-2000

G is a 55-degree non-thread sealed pipe thread, which belongs to the Wyeth thread family. Marked as G stands for cylindrical thread. National standards can be found in GB/T7307-2001

In addition, the 1/4, 1/2, and 1/8 marks in the thread refer to the diameter of the thread size, and the unit is inch. Insiders usually use points to refer to the thread size, one inch equals 8 points, 1/4 inch equals 2 points, and so on. G is the general name of pipe thread (Guan). The division of 55 and 60 degrees is functional, commonly known as pipe circle. That is, the thread is processed by a cylindrical surface.

ZG is commonly known as pipe cone, that is, the thread is processed by a conical surface. The general water pipe joints are like this. The national standard is marked as Rc metric thread to indicate the pitch, and the American thread is 60 degrees. Metric units are used for metric threads, and imperial units are used for American and British threads. Pipe thread is mainly used to connect pipelines. The internal and external threads are closely matched. There are two types of straight pipes and tapered pipes. The nominal diameter refers to the diameter of the connected pipe, obviously the thread diameter is larger than the nominal diameter. 1/4, 1/2, 1/8 are the nominal diameters of inch threads, and the unit is inches.

Inch pipe threads are derived from British Wyeth threads. The combination of Wyeth threaded pipe series and Wyeth thread profiles establishes the basic dimensions of British pipe threads. According to the 1/16 taper relationship, the radial diameter tolerance of Wyeth threads is converted into British sealed tubes. Tolerance of the axial number of threads (there is a certain amount of rounding and adjustment). Then refer to the tolerance value of the inch seal pipe thread to propose the tolerance of the inch unsealed pipe thread (the tolerance changes from one-way distribution to one-way distribution, relax the top Diameter tolerance, let go of the bottom diameter tolerance). The time for the three types of threads is:

In 1841, the British Wyeth thread was proposed, and in 1905, the new Wyeth thread standard (BS 84) was promulgated.

In 1905, the British Sealed Pipe Thread Standard (BS 21) was promulgated.

From 1905 to 1940, Wyeth Thread performed the responsibility of the imperial unsealed pipe. In 1940, the unsealed pipe thread series (BSP series) of Wyeth Thread was proposed; in 1956, the British unsealed pipe thread standard (BS 2779) was issued separately.

European countries and Commonwealth countries first accepted the imperial pipe thread standard. The ISO/TC5/SC5 Pipe Thread Standardization Technical Committee and its secretariat are controlled by European countries, and the imperial pipe thread standard was adopted by the ISO standard. In 1955, the ISO proposed the imperial sealed pipe thread Standard (ISO R 7); In 1961, ISO proposed the standard for imperial unsealed pipe threads (ISO R 228). In 1978, ISO promulgated two official standards for imperial pipe threads (ISO7-1 and ISO228-1). Threads have been generally accepted by countries outside North America and are widely used in international trade.

The inch pipe thread in the ISO standard has been converted to the metric system. The metric method of the inch pipe thread is very simple. Multiply the inch size of the original pipe thread by 25.4 to convert it to the millimeter size. The inch pipe thread size is being eliminated. The so-called use of real pipe thread standards is unrealistic. There is no distinction between real metric pipe threads and fake metric pipe threads.
