Features and Description of Edward Flite-Flow Globe Valves

1. Impactor handwheel - provides many


times the closing force of an ordinary hand-
wheel for positive seating. Impactogear,
available on larger sizes, allows cycling by
one man utilizing the air wrench adaptor.
2. Thrust bearings minimize torque require-
ments and eliminate side loading due to out
of position orientation. Smoother operation
and longer valve life is possible.
3. Stem guide collar - prevents stem rotation
and provides valve position indication.
4. Yoke/Yoke lock ring - the yoke is
designed for ready access to the packing
C chamber and the lock ring allows quick disas-
sembly for maintenance.
5. Bonnet retainer provides loading to effect
a seal at the pressure seal gasket.
6. Bonnet is precision machined, retains
packing and provides an integral hardfaced
stem backseat.
7. Yoke bushing material has low coefficient
of friction which substantially reduces torque
and thread wear and eliminates galling.
8. Stem has ACME threads, is machined to a
fine finish and is heat treated for improved
strength and hardness to resist wear.
9. Stem packing system utilizes flexible
graphite packing material with anti-extrusion
rings for optimum sealability and life.
10. Composite Pressure seal gasket is a
preloaded, pressure energized design for
long reliable service.
11. Disk piston is body guided to eliminate
misalignment, galling and stem bending.
12. Guide ribs - hardfaced on Flite-Flow and
some angle patterns, provide body guiding
for disk/piston assemblies.
13. Integral hardsurfaced seats both body
and disk provide shutoff and long seat life.
14. Body utilizes optimized flow passages to
minimize flow direction changes and reduce For high pressure/high temperature installation, the Flite-Flow
pressure drop. valve is capable of handling millions of pounds per hour of fluid
flow - without sacrificing low pressure drop or piping flexibility.

Features and Description of Edward Stop-Check (Non-Return) Valves
Edward stop-check (non-return) valves
offer the same tight-sealing performance
as Edward stop valves, and at the same
time, give check valve protection in the
event of fluid back flow. Edward stop-check
valves are commonly used to prevent back
flow from a header fed from two or more
sources when there is a loss of pressure in
one of the sources  for example, the boil-
er outlet to a common header or at the Equalizer pipe for
feedwater heater outlets. ➡ full disk lift

C
Flite-Flow®

Angle

Equalizer
Elbow Down All Edward cast steel stop-check valves are equipped with an Equalizer pipe.
Acting as an external pressure balancing pipeline, the Equalizer connects the
zone above the disk with the lower pressure area in the valve outlet (see drawing
above). This reduces pressure above the disk, and as a result, causes the higher
pressure below the disk to raise the disk to full lift. The Equalizer helps reduce
Globe pressure 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

The Edward tilting disk check valve is


designed to close as quickly as possible.
It minimizes loud, damaging slamming
and vibration noises caused when high
velocity reverse flow is allowed to build
up before the completion of closing.

Quick Closing
Quick closing is achieved through a com-
bination of several design construction
features. The disk is dome shaped to
C avoid hesitation of disk motion or closing,
common to conventional flat disks. For
minimum 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, so


that no dashpot action can delay closing.
The disk pivots on pin supports having
chrome-plated bearings for minimum
friction. Totally enclosed torsion springs
in the pivot pins help speed the closing
action, although the disk is counter-
weighted sufficiently to close automati-
cally without aid from the springs
whether the valve is in a vertical or hori-
zontal position. Since the springs are
fully enclosed in the pins, they are not

Features and Description of Edward Equiwedge Gate Valves
For detailed description of the 2 piece flexible wedge see page C-10
1.Yoke bushing - material has low coefficient
of friction which substantially reduces torque
and thread wear and eliminates galling.
2. Weather/Grease seals - are provided to
protect against environmental conditions.
3. Yoke - the yoke is designed for ready
access to the packing chamber.
4. Packing and junk ring - utilizes flexible
graphite packing material with anti-extrusion
rings for optimum sealability and life.
5. Extended bonnet design - further sepa-
rates the packing chamber from fluid flow
area for longer packing life. Also provides
C accessible area for leakoff connections if
required.
6. Composite pressure seal gasket - pre-
loaded, pressure energized design, for long
reliable service.
7. Body guiding system - holds the wedge
halves together and absorbs thrust loads due
to line flow. Integral hardfaced guide system
components reduce friction and prevent
galling for longer valve life.
8. Conical stem backseat - Cone-on-cone
design provides a reliable sealing geometry
that operates over many valve cycles without
leakage.
9. Body - rugged cast steel body provides
maximum flow efficiency. Information on alter-
nate materials can be obtained through your
Edward representative.
10. Handwheel - spoke design provides more
efficient transfer of load with minimum weight.
11. Tapered roller bearings - on larger
valves, tapered roller bearings reduce torque,
carry the stem thrust and provide additional 14. Bonnet retaining ring - assures an effective, tight seal by pulling the bonnet and gasket together at the pressure seal.

Check Valves
Edward standard cast steel valves with the body-guided feature have excel-
lent ability to handle flow at high pressure differentials. However, for
improved accuracy, cast globe and angle stop valves can be equipped with a
special throttle disk. Disk shape provides good regulation over wide ranges
of flow. When required, valves equipped with a throttle disk may also be
ordered with a motor operator. Edward cast stop valves equipped with a
throttle disk are identified by adding the suffix “K” to the standard valve

Features and Description of Edward PressurCombo Valves
1. Stem has ACME threads, is ground to a fine
finish and is hardened to resist wear.
2. Yoke bushing material has low coefficient of
friction which substantially reduces torque and
stem wear and eliminates galling. Mechanical
upset locks bushing to yoke.

3. Yoke-bonnet assembly is two-piece to facili- 9.
tate disassembly for faster in-line internal repairs.
4. Inclined stem construction and optimum flow
shape minimizes flow direction changes and
reduces pressure drop.
5. Body-guided disk utilizes anti-thrust rings to
eliminate misalignment, galling and stem bend- 7.

Controlled Closure Check Valve

Standard Features
• Minimizes water hammer effects
on postulated feedwater line
break.
• Computerized modeling verified
by dynamic testing.

The Edward Controlled Closure Check Valve was developed and qualified to serve a function that no other previous
check valve could handle. If a feedwater line should rupture in a nuclear power plant, the reversed flow from the
reactor or steam generator out of the containment boundary must be contained. Conventional check valves would
close 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 or
equipment.

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 individual
applications limit the flow out of the dashpot and consequently control the valve closing speed. See pg. G-17/G-19
for a discussion of water hammer and a comparison of the controlled closure check valve with other types.
