    Series SG & FTV

    Suction Guides
    Designed for direct mounting on the suction flange of horizontal and vertical pumps.

    Armstrong Suction Guide Design:


    Model SG: Supplied with cast iron body and ANSI-125/PN16 flanges. Supplied with ductile iron body with grooved inlet connection and ANSI-125/PN16 outlet flange.

    Model SGG:

    Model SGHH: Supplied with ductile iron body and ANSI-250/PN25 flanges.

    Model SG, SGG and SGHH Suction Guides


    Four-function pump fitting
    90 Elbow
    Mounting the Suction Guide on any pump suction turns the piping 90, replacing an elbow. In addition, the Suction Guide can be rotated to any position allowed by the pump suction bolts, from vertical to horizontal.

    Reducing Elbow
    The Suction Guide connects same size piping to the pump suction, but can also connect to inlet piping one size larger than the pump suction, eliminating a reducing elbow.

    Guide Vanes In-Line Strainer


    The stainless steel strainer has free area of at least 250% of pipe sectional area. A disposable fine-mesh strainer is installed for start-up cleaning. Flow stabilizing vanes on the outlet allow the Suction Guide to bolt directly to the pump, saving the space and cost of a long straight pipe length.

    Flo-Trex Valves
    Designed for installation on the discharge side of centrifugal pumps.

    Armstrong Model FTV Flo-Trex Combination Valves


    Model FTV-F: Flo-Trex valve is supplied with hard (cast-in) flanges. Model FTV-G: Flo-Trex valve is supplied with grooved port connections, designed for Armstrong ArmgripTM flange adapters or standard grooved pipe fittings.

    Model FTV Flo-Trex Valves


    Drip-tight Shut Off Valve
    The Armstrong Flo-Trex valve is designed and tested for driptight isolation at 150% of maximum working pressure.

    Flow Throttling Valve


    The Armstrong Flo-Trex valve uses a plug and disc design which is the most effective valve type for combining throttling of flow and isolation. Other design valves may be effective for

    Non-slam Check Valve


    The Armstrong Flo-Trex valve incorporates a spring closure design that closes the valve in a controlled manner, protecting the valve from slamming due to a reversal in flow caused by gravity or recirculation from a parallel pump.

    throttling or isolation, but not both.

    Convertible Body Design


    The Armstrong Flo-Trex convertible body design permits the valve to be changed on-site from straight to angle configuration.

    Technical Information
    Design Benefits
    Reduced field installation and material costs. Cast iron or ductile valve body with hard flanges, or ductile iron valve body with standard grooved ends. Eliminates requirement for two separate valves on pump discharge and, in some cases, a 90 elbow. FTV-G eliminates three welded flange connections. Soft seat to ensure tight shut-off. Spring-closure design uses a non-slam silent check valve feature for vertical mounting. Flow measurement and pump throttling capabilities. Temperature measurement capability. Spring-closure design check valve prevents gravity or reverse circulation when pump is not operating. Bonnet O Ring can be replaced under full system pressure by back seating of valve stem. Suitable for maximum working pressure up to 375 psi (26 bars) and temperatures up to 300F (150C). Valve seat can be changed in the field without use of special tools. Low pressure drop due to Y pattern valve design. Valve Cv designed to ASHRAE flow recommendations for quiet system operation.
