Design RSS Lined Globe Valve

The Design RSS lined globe-style valve (figure 1) has
pure-modified (reinforced) PTFE trim parts, push-
down-to-close action, and positive shutoff. The sophis-
ticated PTFE trim has replaced the previously used
glass-filled or carbon-filled standard PTFE trim without
any loss of mechanical or thermal properties and has
improved the universal chemical resistance. This valve
is for applications involving severely corrosive and tox-
ic flowing media. Within its temperature and pressure
limitations, the Design RSS valve body may be applied
to most media. The Design RSS valve body provides
an economical alternative to alloy valve bodies in a
wide variety of applications.

Features

Fluid Compatibility—The PFA (perfluoroalkoxy
resin)-lined assembly provides corrosion protection by
shielding metal parts from the process media, making
it ideal for controlling severely corrosive media.

Permeating Service—A heavy duty PTFE bel-

lows with PTFE/carbon support rings is available for
permeating service. Compared to a standard bellows,
the heavy duty bellows design has an enhanced re-
sistance to permeation (especially in combination with
a Hastelloy C stem) and an extended pressure/tem-
perature range. This is due to a wall thickness of 0.1
inch (2.5 mm) and pressure retaining rings inside of
the bellows. An optional N10276 nickel alloy (Hastelloy
C276) bellows seal is also available to meet the needs
of severe service conditions.

Economy—Because all metal parts are shielded
from the process fluid, the use of expensive alloys is
not necessary.

and 3050 Positioner
Greater safety under vacuum and high temperature
service is achieved by dovetail anchorings which pro-
vide a mechanical bond, effectively preventing detach-
ment of the lining from the cast valve body.

Easy In-Line Maintenance—The top entry de-
sign eases in-line maintenance. This design also mini-
mizes the transfer of pipeline stress, which minimizes
leakage both at the valve body joint and seat ring.

Liner Integrity—Lining thickness is a minimum
of 5 millimeters at all areas where the valve is exposed
to process flow. Transfer molding techniques provide
for excellent consistency, density, and low permeabil-
ity. Transfer molded PFA material is translucent. This
allows for checking of the entire wall surface for pin
holes and cracks in the material during the manufac-
turing process.

Longer Life Bellows Seal—The PTFE bellows
seal is leak tight and, with proper use and mainte-
nance,can have an expected life cycle exceeding
500,000 full stroke cycles. The N10276 nickel alloy
bellows seal, with proper use and maintenance, can
have an expected life cycle of 10,000 cycles at full
stroke, 100,000 cycles at 1/2 stroke, and 1,000,000
cycles at 1/4 stroke.

1. Inch equivalents of these metric port diameters have been rounded to common fractional diameters. Actual diameter of the 15 millimeter port diameter is 0.591 inches, the 40
millimeter port diameter is 1.575 inches, and the 96 millimeter port is 3.780 inches.
2. KV = (0.865) (CV)
3. With the 3/16-inch port diameter, some variations of the flow coefficients is expected due to dimensional changes of the PTFE seat ring because of cold flow and thermal
expansions.
