HALLIBURTON

High Value, Dependable Performance, Low Maintenance

 i

The high value, dependable performance, and low

maintenance requirements of Halliburton Lo Torc® valves can
help reduce overall operating costs and help cut downtime.

T hese features have made Lo Torc valves the choice

of high pressure plug value users, worldwide:
Provides Outstanding Value
Even though it leads the industry in quality and
performance, the Lo Torc valve, size for size and
service for service, is priced with or below every other
high pressure plug valve on the market—even valves
without stainless steel plugs.
Helps Reduce Valve Replacement Costs
The rugged construction of the Lo Torc valve provides
long, dependable service under severe conditions.
The stainless steel cylindrical plug is heat treated to
help eliminate galling during operation and provides
maximum resistance to corrosion.
Meets A Broad Range of Operating
Requirements

Benefits

Lo Torc valves perform dependably at high working

pressures. The sealing principle of the valve compen-
sates for body deflections. Each valve is hydrostati-
cally tested to the pressure specified by API 6A.
Offers Installation Versatility
Lo Torc valves are lightweight. This feature makes the
valve suitable for many applications, including
mobile installations. Contents

solvents, seals of fluoroelastomer with a stainless steel
backing ring are available. For applications involving
extreme temperatures or the handling of highly corrosive
media, a Teflon seal ring, self-energized by an inconel spring,
can be provided. Maximum service temperatures are 250°F
for nitrile and fluoroelastomer and 300°F for Teflon.

2 Lo Torc plug valves with 2-in. 1502 and 3-in. 1502 connections are available with certification: part numbers 9.1277 (1 in.),
9.1267 (2 in.) and 11.5091 (3 in.). Product certificates are available—request when ordering. Weights and dimensions are the same as given for the
standard, 1-in., 2-in., and 3-in. valves listed above. Other sizes available on request.
3 Operating torque is given for direct stem operated valves only, and at maximum rated working pressure. The torque given is an average reading of new
valves tested with water. 3-in. and 4-in. size valves are equipped with manual gear operators so direct stem operation is not required.

CAUTION: The fact that a valve has never leaked in

service does not necessarily mean that the inserts do not
6 need to be replaced. The inserts may wash out and cause
5 the valve body to erode before leakage is noted. A planned
program of maintenance at specific intervals is the key to
4 2 keeping downtime and repair cost at a minimum.
For Lo Torc plug valve applications involving throttling or
16
choking, the all metal inserts should be used.

3 Lo Torc Valve Operation and Care
Proper operation and maintenance can help extend
the service life of Lo Torc valves.
1
Due to widely varied applications, no specific
frequency of maintenance or in-service inspection for
the Lo Torc plug valves can be recommended.
15 Periodic and frequent inspection of each valve will
provide a basis for predicting the life or usefulness of

the plug and inserts. Replacing these parts when they

13 are eroded or worn will help prevent any erosion of
the body.
Disassembly and Reassembly Instructions
10 12 Disassembly
11
Remove the wrench (15) or handle adapter (2), with
10 stop collars (14).
Loosen adjusting nut (7) with operating bar or hex
11 wrench. Remove adjusting nut, plug (12) and inserts
(10). If necessary, place a wooden block on top of the
plug stem and tap downward.
At this point, the valve body (1) should be inspected
for any interior erosion or pitting. O-ring (11) on the
9 inserts should be replaced if needed. The o-ring (8)
sealing the adjusting nut should also be replaced if
8 worn. Replacing the plug stem packing (9) at the top
7 and bottom of the plug is usually necessary.
If the valve shows signs of leakage, or if inserts show
4 any excessive wear or pitting, the inserts should be
