Introduction

Section

EV-100
4th Edition

High Performance For Critical Service


A

Temperatures that can exceed 1000 F. Pressures surpassing


10,000 psi. In critical service conditions, you cant take chances.
You dont just meet standards, you exceed them. Thats how
Edward forged and cast steel valves have become the specified
choice for power plants, process facilities, and other hightemperature, high-pressure services.

Conservative Design
Edward Valves takes a conservative approach to valve design.
We meet all applicable codes
and standards, but we go
beyond that...with finite element
stress analysis of critical areas
and rigorous proof testing.
Edward valves are built to take
punishment!
And our extensive testing has
also allowed us to develop
extremely high flow efficiencies
in all our valves.
Youll find other unique design
advantages on our various
product lines, such as our
Equiwedge gate valves, with a
two-piece wedge gate assembly
which adjusts automatically to
any angular distortion of the
body seats. And many other
design features, now considered industry standards,
started on the drawing boards
at Edward Valves.

Precision Manufacturing
Edward Valves also exceeds
industry standards on the factory floor. Our forged valves are
produced on a fully automated
line, with CNC machining centers providing precise process
control. And we maximize cast
steel quality by producing our
valve body castings using a
directional solidification process
from patterns designed by our
own technicians. This process
assures high strength void free
castings for uncompromised
quality.
Even with the most advanced
equipment, we feel our people
make the real difference at
Edward Valves. Our production
personnel have an average 20
years in the industry, and 15
years with Edward Valves!
This exceptional experience
level allows us to achieve an
extra degree of precision that
can make a very real difference
in the field.

Finally, its our people, along


with our procedures for quality
assurance and lot-traceability,
that have earned Edward Valves
the ASME N stamp, certifying our
Raleigh, North Carolina, manufacturing facility for nuclear-service valve production.
Lower Total Costs
Those tough standards have
carried over into every valve we
manufacture. Whether it is for
nuclear service or not, we
design and build our valves to
last at least 40 years. That
means not only are they tough,
but they are designed with easy
maintenance in mind.
Considering the cost of valve
failure, Edward Valves quality is
clearly worth specifying. Thats
been true since 1904, when the
first Edward valve was made.
Today, as industrial companies
become increasingly aware that
operating expenses are part of
total cost, the choice becomes
both more clear and more critical than ever.

Designed With An Eye On Your Bottom Line


to prototype testing, this system has
been used for applications such as:
friction and wear tests of valve trim
materials in hot water and steam
environments; qualification tests of
new or redesigned valves; and proof
testing of new valve gaskets and valve
stem packings.

In-house computer-aided design and


finite-element method capabilities give
our engineering staff powerful tools to
develop reliable valves for critical service
applications. CAD generated graphic
models undergo FEM analysis to determine that stresses are within acceptable
limits. Dynamic simulation of valve operation also helps assure reliability of
Edward valve performance.
Prototyping is just as important, and rigorous proof testing is a mainstay of
Edward valve design. Before we approve
a valve for production, we put it through
hundreds, even thousands, of cycles to
demonstrate that performance and sealing integrity will be maintained in service.
Transducers relay data from test assemblies to computers for further analysis.
Laboratory simulation of critical services
includes a steam generator and superheater, designed for 2700 psi and 1050
F. This flexible system allows testing of
prototype valves under both low pressure
and high pressure conditions. In addition

Before we make the first production unit,


that valve has already been through a
rigorous program to assure long life,
simple maintenance, and dependable
performance, for the lowest cost over the
life of the valve. Again, people play
important roles in design. The Edward
product engineering department pools
well over 200 years of valve experience.

Testing Beyond Code


Requirements
At Edward Valves, quality assurance
starts with meeting code requirements.
Valves are manufactured to ANSI B16.34
(Standard, Limited and Special Classes),
including standards for:

Minimum wall thickness of valve body.


Body, bonnet and body-bonnet bolting
to specified ASTM material standards.
Hydrostatic shell testing at 1.5 times the
100 F rating of the valve.
From there, Edward Valves goes on to
exceed the code, with higher test standards and an additional battery of tests
performed on every type of valve we
make, using in-house test facilities and
personnel to assure expert quality control. Edward Valves quality assurance
program includes:

Non-Destructive Examination
All NDE personnel are qualified in
accordance with ASNT-TC-1A guide
lines.
All castings are visually examined per
MSS SP-55.
The first five body castings from every
pattern are 100% radiographed to verify
casting quality.
Hydrostatic Testing
The seat-leakage criteriano visible
leakage for forged steel and 2ml/hour/
inch of nominal valve size for cast
steelare stricter than the allowed
leakage rate of MSS SP-61, which is
10ml/hour/inch of nominal valve size.
Seat-leakage test is performed at 110%
of 100 F rating.
Statistical Process Control
Requirements are clearly stated and
measurements are taken to determine
conformance to those requirements.
Quality equals conformance to requirements.
Welding
All personnel and procedures are qualified in accordance with ASME Boiler and
Pressure Vessel Code, Section IX.
Additional Standard Tests for
Specific Valves
Includes heavy-wall examination on large
body castings.
We have only listed a few of Edward
Valves standard tests that exceed
industry requirements. Also, Edward
Valves has the facilities and the
expertise to meet additional qualityassurance standards, as required for
the application.

Edward Forged Steel Valves Feature Body-Guided Disks


To Prevent Side-Thrust and Eliminate
1. Stem galling & binding 2. Disk-seat misalignment and damage 3. High operating torque
Valve disks are guided by rings that fit snugly within the body bore and
assure perfect disk-and-seat alignment despite the side thrust of modern
high velocities and high pressure-differentials. This protects the stem
and its contact points; eliminates galling, scoring, bending and the high
operating torque resulting from these abuses. Because they eliminate
disk wobble and assure alignment of disk with seat, they also assure
more dependable closing and longer disk, seat and body life.

B
Figure 1 - Ordinary Vertical Stem Globe Valves are
subject to side-thrust under high pressure drop conditions. Illustration shows how upstream pressure
can slip past stem-guided disk and impart a thrust
toward the downstream side of the valve. Tests
have proven that this thrust causes disk-seat misalignment plus galling and scoring.

Double Duty for Lower Bearing - The lower ring not only serves as a
highly efficient anti-side thrust bearing but serves too, as a flow director. Its snug fit within the bonnet bore reduces by 90% the amount of
flow that can get into the bonnet cavity and exert thrust forces against
the side of the disk. In short, the anti-thrust ring design diverts 90% of the
line forces into controllable channels.
Machining Important, Too - To assure concentric alignment essential to
tight seating, the body bore and the stellite seat are both machined in a
single operation. The disks anti-thrust rings and conical stellite seat face
are also faced in a single operation.

Streamlined Flow Passages for Highest CV Values - The inclined bonnet globe stop valves (and check and stop-check valves) continue the
Edward reputation for the ultimate in flow passage streamlining. Inclined
bonnet construction minimizes flow directional changes and minimizes
wear caused by excessive turbulence.
Whether its pounds per hour of steam or gallons per minute of liquid, the
inclined bonnet valves give you better flow capacity.
Flow Under or Over Disk - Normal practice is to install globe valves with
flow entering from below the disk. However, piping designers may confidently install Edward globe stop valves with flow entering over the disk
when space problems or other considerations suggest this procedure.
Our valves operate equally well with flow in either direction; however,
with flow over the disk, packing is under pressure when the valve is
closed and there is a slight penality in CV value.

Figure 2 - Inclined Stem Globe Valves of the stemguided type are also subject to side-thrust under
the same conditions. Illustration above shows path
pressure through the valve.

Figure 4 - Graph illustrates relationship of side-thrust in conventional stem-guided Globe Valve and in Edward Univalve with
body-guided disk.
Figure 3 - This illustration shows the Edward bodyguided disk with anti-thrust rings. Lower guide eliminates 90% of the flow upward and behind the disk.
Both guide rings maintain perfect alignment. This
effectively eliminates all side-thrust problems.

Figure 5 - Graph illustrates typical throttling curves for conventional stem-guided Globe Valve and Univalve. Note, the
Univalve Curve illustrates that finest control is obtained at low
lifts, when it is needed. Contrast this with conventional valve
curve which shows rapid flow increase as disk lifts off seat.

Heres How The Unique Stem-Disk Assembly is Made...

Figure 1
First, a Stellite wire is inserted into a hole in a
Univalve body guided disk.

Figure 2
Next, the Stellite wire is fed around circular
grooves, adjacent to one another, on the
inside bore of the disk and outside diameter
of the stem.

Figure 3
Finally the hole through which the wire was
fed is welded closed.

Features and Description of Edward Bolted Bonnet Globe Valves


1. Handwheel is rugged and knobbed to provide sure grip even when wearing gloves.
2. Stem has ACME threads, is ground to a
fine finish and is hardened to resist wear.

3. Yoke bushing material has low coefficient


of friction which substantially reduces torque
and stem wear and eliminates galling.
Mechanical upset locks yoke bushing to yoke.
4. Bolted Bonnet joint utilizes a spiral wound
gasket for positive sealing and four-bolt
design for ease of assembly. Bonnet has pilot
extension to insure proper alignment and positive metal to metal stop to prevent over-compression of gasket.
5. Integral hardsurfaced seat provides positive shutoff and long seat life.
6. Stem packing system utilizes flexible
graphite packing material with anti-extrusion
rings for optimum sealability and life.
7. Integral backseat provides a secondary
stem seal backup for positive shutoff and leak
protection.
8. Body utilizes optimized flow passages to
minimize flow direction changes and reduce
pressure drop.
9. Body-guided disk utilizes anti-thrust rings
to eliminate misalignment, galling and stem
bending.

4th Edition

Features and Description of Edward Flite-Flow Globe Valves


1. Impactor handwheel - provides many
times the closing force of an ordinary handwheel for positive seating. Impactogear,
available on larger sizes, allows cycling by
one man utilizing the air wrench adaptor.
2. Thrust bearings minimize torque requirements 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
chamber and the lock ring allows quick disassembly 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
pressure drop.

For high pressure/high temperature installation, the Flite-Flow


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 boiler outlet to a common header or at the
feedwater heater outlets.

Equalizer pipe for

C
Flite-Flow

Angle

Equalizer
Elbow Down

Globe

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
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 combination of several design construction
features. The disk is dome shaped to
avoid hesitation of disk motion or closing,
common to conventional flat disks. For
minimum pendulum period an important factor in assuring quick closing
the disk pivot is located close to the center 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 counterweighted sufficiently to close automatically without aid from the springs
whether the valve is in a vertical or horizontal position. Since the springs are
fully enclosed in the pins, they are not
subject to possible erosive effects of line
fluids are foreign matter cannot get in.
There is no bolting in the flow stream.
Adjustable Hinge Pins
Available factory-installed or as a conversion kit, Edwards unique adjustable
hinge pin replaces the usual concentric
hinge pins with double offset eccentric
hinge pins, making core alignment a
matter of simply dialing in the fit.

1. Cover retainer provides loading through the


cover retainer and bolting to initiate a seal at the
pressure seal gasket.

6. Hinge pin provides a disk pivot point close to its


center of gravity for fast response to flow reversals
which minimizes water hammer effects.

2. Cover is precision machined to retain pressure


integrity and critical gasket seating surfaces.

7. Hinge pin gasket is spiral wound, coated steel,


or flexible graphite for long reliable service.

3. Composite pressure seal gasket is a preloaded pressure energized flexible graphite composite for long reliable service.

8. Body features a straight thru compact design for


low pressure drop.

4. Integral hardsurfaced seats, both body and


disk, provide positive shutoff and long seat life.

9. Disk assembly is dome shaped and counterweighted for fast response to flow reversals.

5. Springs insure quick closing of the disk by providing a positive seating force to speed closing.

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 alternate 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
radial support for side loads imposed by
handwheel or power actuator. Smaller size
valves have needle roller bearings.
12. Stem - has ACME threads, is machined to
a fine finish and is heat treated for improved
strength and hardness to resist wear.
13. Packing gland - made of alloy steel, and
retained against the stuffing box pressure by
an easy-to-maintain stud and heavy hex nut
assembly.

For detailed description of the 2 piece flexible wedge see page C-10

14. Bonnet retaining ring - assures an effective, tight seal by pulling the bonnet and gasket together at the pressure seal.
15. Yoke lock ring - permits easier field maintenance of upper structure without disturbing pressure containing parts. Valves in smaller sizes utilize
a wishbone yoke design. Class 600 valves utilize a bolted pressure seal bonnet.
16. Bonnet backseat - especially hard faced to assure long-term sealability.
17. Hemispherical-type bonnet - reduces valve body height and provides weight savings. Hemispherical-type design results in better pressure distribution across the bonnet area.
18. Two-piece wedge assembly - allows each wedge half to flex and adjust independently to compensate for body distortions caused by thermal
changes or pipe bending stresses. (see pg. C-10)
19. Welded-in seat ring with hardfaced seat - assures better wear and longer valve life. Seat ring is welded into the valve body to prevent leakage.

Features and Description of Edward Equiwedge Gate Valves

Unique 2-Piece Flexible Wedge


Wedging action provides tight seat
sealing, even at low differential pressures. Wedge guiding by grooves in
body minimizes seat wear and damage, since seating surfaces of
wedge and body are in contact over
less than 5% of total travel. Two separate flexible wedge halves are free
to align with seats even when they
are tilted or rotated due to thermal
effects or piping loads. Resistance to
thermal binding assures opening
with a torque or load less than design
closing load.
Wedge guide area and strength provides capability to support high differential pressures with valve partially open, so Equiwedge gate valves
can be opened or closed under
blowdown conditions. By-passes
are not required if full differential is
specified for actuator sizing.

The outstanding design feature of the


Equiwedge gate valve is unique twopiece wedge that permits maximum
independence and flexibility for good
sealability and freedom from sticking.

The body groove extends high in the


body neck region so that in the open
position the wedge assembly is both
trapped and fully guided. Body
grooves are hardfaced in stainless
steel and critical service valves.

Wedge halves are separated the


proper amount by a spacer ring which
provides controlled deflection from
stem loading. Use of a space and
weight-saving captured stem (shown
here and in Figure 4) is possible
because of the two-piece wedge
design.

The Equiwedge two-piece wedge


design allows the use of a space and
weight saving captured stem.

Center Cavity Overpressurization


Some valve designs are capable of sealing
simultaneously against a pressure differential
between an internal cavity of the valve and the
adjacent pipe in both directions. All double
seated gate valves, including Equiwedge, are
example of such a design. In fact, seat joint
integrity for these valves is tested in the factory by pressurizing the center cavity and simultaneously examining each seat. However, if a
fluid is entrapped in such a valve while closed,
and then subsequently heated, a dangerous
rise in pressure can result thus leading to pressure boundary failure.
Both ASME/ANSI B16.34 (Valves - Flanged,
Threaded and Welding End), para 2.3.3 and
ANSI/ASME B31.1 (Pressure Piping Code),
para 107.1(c), recognize this situation and
require that the Purchaser shall provide means

in design, installation and/or operation to


assure that the pressure in the valve shall not
exceed the rated pressure for the attained
temperature. Therefore, if deemed necessary
by the Purchaser, and so specified in the purchase order, Edward Valves can provide an
equalizer system (internal or external) that will
relieve this trapped fluid to the upstream piping
or a relief valve that will exhaust excessive
pressure to some other specified area. It
should be understood that an internal or external equalizer will change a basically by-directional gate valve to a design with fully effective
seat sealing in only one direction. The equalizer bypasses the upstream seat and would
allow leakage by that seat if the pressure
should be reversed. The downstream seat
would become the upstream seat with pressure reversed; the wedging action provided by

stem load provides good upstream seat sealing at low to moderate pressures, but leakage
could be excessive at high pressures.
Excessive pressure trapped in the center cavity of a gate valve can also produce pressure
locking a condition that can make opening
difficult or impossible. Either an internal or an
external equalizer will prevent pressure locking. However, a relief valve may allow the center cavity pressure to be higher than either the
upstream or downstream pressure, and this
can allow pressure locking to occur. Edwards
unique ACCEV (Automation Center Cavity
Equalizing Valve) can alleviate this problem.
Refer to section F, page F4 for additional information.

Special Application Valves

NACE VALVES
(NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CORROSION ENGINEERS)
Edward can provide valves constructed of materials that meet NACE standard MR-01-75 for sour service.
This standard entitled Sulfide Stress Cracking Resistant Metallic Materials For Oil Field Equipment covers material
requirements for production, drilling, gathering and flow line equipment used in hydrogen sulfide bearing hydrocarbon
service.

SPECIAL TRIM
Edward Valves provides a standard valve trim
this is compatible with the valve body chemistry,
pressure class, operating temperature, and fluid.
However, on application special trim materials to
meet specific customer needs can be provided.
Edward also can provide cobalt free trim for
nuclear applications.

NON-STANDARD ENDS
Most Edward forged and cast steel valves can
be provided with welding ends or flanged ends
(small forged valves with threaded or socket
weld ends also). On special order non-standard
ends can be furnished to meet specific customer
requirements. A partial list of available options
include:

GRAYLOC hubs.
Special flange facings.
Non-standard end-to-end lengths - most
Edward valves are manufactured to ANSI
B16.10 criteria however, non- standard ends
are available as a special order.
Venturi ends.
Flanged by buttweld.
Blank ends.
Others as required.

Special Application Valves

Edward Skirted
Check Valves

Edward Throttle Valves


Edward standard cast steel valves with the body-guided feature have excellent 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
figure number.

D
For check or stop-check
applications with a broad range of
flow conditions, a skirted disk,
identified by adding the suffix K to
the valve figure number may provide the required minimum lift at
low flow while providing acceptable
pressure drop at maximum flow.
Specifically, the illustrated disk with
a Mini-Skirt provides good low-flow
performance while reducing CV by
only 10%. See Edward Technical
Article V-Rep 92-1 for assistance
on high turndown applications.

Comparison Curves Of Typical


Standard Disk With Throttle
Disk
The standard stop valve disk gives rapid
increases in flow for each increment of lift
at low lifts and small increases in flow at
higher lifts. This is not desirable in many
applications where the valve is used for
controlling flow rate. The conical projection
on the throttle disk gives straight line control at the lower lifts as long as it remains
in the seat. Once the cone lifts entirely out
of the seat it permits high capacity at high
lifts with only moderate pressure drop
penalty.

Stop-Check & Check Valves

Elbow Down

Edward Elbow Down stop-check valves are available for special service requirements.
Because they eliminate the need for a piping elbow, and at the same time offer tight shut-off with minimum pressure
drop, they are commonly used at discharge of circulating pumps on controlled circulation boilers.

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.

8.
9.

3. Yoke-bonnet assembly is two-piece to facilitate 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 bending.

7.
1.

6. Integral hardsurfaced seat provides positive


shutoff and long seat life.

14.

7. Handwheel is rugged and knobbed to provide


sure grip even when wearing gloves.

10.

8. Impactor handle provides many times the


closing force of an ordinary handwheel for positive seating.

11.

9. Threaded bonnet has ACME threads for


resistance to galling and ease of disassembly.
10. Stem packing system utilizes flexible
graphite packing material with carbon fiber antiextrusion rings for optimum sealability and life.
11. Bonnet locking collar.
12. Bonnet seal ring is die formed flexible
graphite seated to a prescribed bonnet torque to
provide reliable bonnet seal.
13. Integral backseat provides a secondary
stem seal back up for positive shutoff and leak
protection.

under varying pressures and temperatures.
16. PressurEater nozzle prevents excess wear
on valve seat.

Note: Also available as a single valve.

17. Valve test report is an actual report of the


individual valve hydrostatic test.
18. Nameplate contains all relevant data for
operational and maintenance records.

Features and Descriptions of


Edward Hermavalve Hermetically-Sealed Valves

1. Position indicator shows whether the valve is open or closed.


2. Handwheel is rugged and knobbed to permit sure grip even when
wearing gloves.
3. Needle thrust bearings minimize torque. Their upper yoke location
protects from heat and allows lubrication.

16. Bonnet is barstock steel with gall-resistant Acme threads to insure


easy disassembly from body.
17. Backup packing with O.S. & Y. design allows for inspection or
addition of packing without disassembling valve.
18. Adjustable gland screws with O.S. & Y. design allow for easy
access to packing adjustment if necessary.

4. Yoke bushing. Revolving bushing of aluminum bronze material has


low coefficient of friction, substantially reduces torque, stem wear and
eliminates galling.
5. Non-revolving stem is stainless steel. It is ground to a fine finish
and keyed to the yoke to prevent rotation and torsional stress on the
diaphragm.

What is a Hermavalve? A Hermavalve is a hermetically sealed valve


that cannot leak to the environment. The Edward Hermavalve cannot
leak because it is double seal welded:

6. Yoke of carbon steel.

1. The multi-ply flexible metal diaphragm is seal welded to the bonnet.


7. Diaphragm disk is a unique patented shape which maximizes
diaphragm life.

2. The body-to-bonnet joint is also seal welded.

8. Diaphragm of multi-ply flexible metal provides a reliable primary


stem seal.

This patented construction eliminates any potential leakage through a


mechanical joint. It is more than just packless, it is hermetically sealed.

9. Body with inclined stem construction and unique flow shape minimizes flow directional changes and cuts pressure drop.

Zero leakage to environment Welded, heretic design and dependable metal diaphragm help to insure zero leakage for the life of the
valve. In approved services the valve is warranted against leakage to
the environment.

10. Integral hardfaced seat of hard, heat resistant hardfacing material


is integrally welded to the body.
11. Solid Stellite disk assures maximum seating life.
12. Disk guide assembly assures disk/seat alignment. Its completely
encapsulated spring assures full disk life.
13. Diaphragm seal weld is a unique seal weld which makes the
diaphragm an integral part of the bonnet and eliminates a potential
leak path past the stem.

High efficiency flow-shape Unique flow shape assures high CV


comparable to or greater than conventionally packed valves proven
by extensive flow testing.
Non-revolving stem design Assures lowest possible operating
torque and is the only absolute method of avoiding diaphragm damage
caused by rotational forces from a revolving stem.
Two backup stem seals 1) Packing and 2) backseat provide
redundancy in backup seals.

14. Backseat provides a secondary stem seal backup.


15. Body-bonnet seal features leak-proof seal-welded construction.
The weld is for seal only; the threaded section carries the pressure
load. Canopy weld in stainless steel; fillet weld in carbon steel.16.
Bonnet is barstock steel with gall-resistant ACME threads to insure
easy disassembly from body.

Edward Valves

Nuclear Application Valves

Section E
EV-100
4th Edition

Edward Forged and Cast Steel Valves for Nuclear Service

From the beginning of commercial nuclear


power production, Edward valves have
been used successfully in many of the
most difficult applications. The Shippingport plant went on line in 1957 with special
size 18 Edward stainless steel tilting disk
check valves in its primary coolant system.
It also incorporated numerous small
Edward capped manual valves. Other first
generation commercial nuclear plants are
still in operation with a broad variety of
Edward forged and cast steel valves.
Through the evolution of the pressurized
water reactor (PWR), the boiling water
reactor (BWR), and even the liquid metal
fast breeder reactors (LMFBR), Edward
people have been involved in meeting the
most difficult challenges. This experience
in engineering, manufacturing, and quality
assurance provides an excellent basis for
supplying superior valves for nuclear service in new construction, retrofit, and life
extension work.

E
Edward Equiwedge gate valve with an Edward gas hydraulic actuator being prepared for
shipment.

A major Edward nuclear niche has been


the main steam and feedwater isolation
market (MSIVs and MFIVs). These safety
related valves must close rapidly, typically
in 3 to 5 seconds, to prevent major leakage in the event of a pipe rupture. Special
Edward Flite-Flow valves with air/spring
actuators were used in PWRs until the
Edward Equiwedge gate valve and stored
energy actuator were developed in the late
1970s. Edward Equiwedge MSIVs and

MFIVs with stored energy actuators are


now in service on three continents in
PWRs and in steam service in an LMFBR.
Other critical nuclear applications are
served by Edward check and stop-check
valves, some with special features. Edward
Valves provides comprehensive application
engineering data (see Technical Section) to
support these valves, helping to avoid
many of the problems which have occurred
with other check valves in nuclear power
plants.
In addition, thousands of small Edward
forged steel valves are widely used in
many nuclear plant applications that
demand high reliability. Some have handwheels, some have electric motor actuators, and some have pneumatic actuators,
but all are designed and built to nuclear
standards. Univalves and Bolted Bonnet
valves provide excellent service in most
applications, and Hermavalves are available for applications where the risk of
external leakage is unacceptable.
Since there was 50 years of Edward power
plant valve experience before the first
nuclear plants were built, Edward was well
prepared for the new challenges. Now, with
over 30 years of nuclear valve experience.
Edward Valves is even better prepared for
the challenges of the future.

All Edward valves constructed for Nuclear service can be offered for Code class 1, 2 or 3.

Features and Description of Edward Univalve Globe 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 yoke bushing to yoke.

7.

3. Yoke-bonnet assembly is two piece to


facilitate 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
bending.
6. Integral hardsurfaced seat provides positive shutoff and long seat life.

7. Handwheel on smaller size valves is


rugged and knobbed to provide sure grip even
when wearing gloves. Impactor handle or
handwheel on larger, higher pressure valves
provides many times the closing force of an
ordinary handwheel for positive seating.
8. Threaded bonnet has ACME threads for
resistance to galling and ease of disassembly.
Unwelded models utilize a graphitic gasket for
dependable sealing. Welded models employ a
fillet weld (canopy weld on stainless steel
valves) for absolute protection from body-bonnet leakage.
9. Stem packing system utilizes flexible
graphite packing material with carbon fiber
anti-extrusion rings for optimum sealability
and life.

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 produce 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.

Accessories Cast and Forged Steel


The following accessories or options are available for Edward Forged and Cast Steel Valves. Consult your Edward
Valves sales representative for specific details.

Relief valve (J)

Impactor Handwheel

Impactogear

Custom Paint

Larger size Edward Valves (except gate


valves) feature an Impactor handwheel
that permits one or two men to develop
several thousand ft. lbs. of torque for
final valve closure up to twelve times
the force of an ordinary handwheel.

The Edward Impactogear makes cycling


of larger, high pressure valves a one
man operation. Impactogear is an exclusive Edward ring gear and pinion assembly that is fastened to an Impactor handwheel and yoke. Using the mechanical
advantage of gearing reduction, the
assembly permits large valves to be
cycled between full open and full closed
with an air wrench operating off a nominal air supply. The Impactogear wrench
connection is equipped with a safety
wrench guard.

Unless otherwise specified Edward Cast


and Forged (carbon or alloy) Steel
Valves are painted with a high temperature aluminum lacquer paint. Upon special order Edward Valves can be provided with customer specified paints or
coatings.

Drain or Vent

Relief Valve

All Edward Cast Steel Valves can be


supplied with drains and/or vents. A
standard drain or vent pipe, six inches
long, is socket welded to the valve body,
or as specified by the customer.

A pressure relief valve can be attached


to the bonnet of the Equiwedge Gate
Valve to protect against overpressurization, but not prevent pressure locking.
See drawing and page C-10 for additional information.

External equalizer (DD)

center cavity pressure to the higher pressure end of
the valve, while preventing leakage to the lower pressure end, solving pressure locking and bonnet overpressurization problems which can occur in doubleseated valves. The internal spring gives preferential
connection to the designated upstream end of the
valve. When system conditions result in the downstream pressure being higher than the upstream, the
ball shifts so that the center cavity connects with the
downstream end of the valve. The Edward ACCEV

meets or exceeds MSS SP-61 for tight shutoff in both


directions. When furnished on an Edward Equiwedge
gate valve, all of the necessary connections are made
to the host valve and hydro-tested in our factory. No
piping connections or testing are required by the user.
The Edward ACCEV is available as a kit with necessary piping to be field installed on any existing
Edward or other manufacturers valve, and can be
readily dissassembled and repaired in-line in the
event any maintenance is required. The Edward
ACCEV is available in a commercial B16.34 version
for general service and also in an ASME Section III
N-Stamp version for nuclear applications.

Forged and Cast Steel
Edward Valves supplies actuators for Edward forged and cast steel valves when alternate sources of power are required
to open, close or maintain an intermediate position in the valve.
The most commonly used actuators are: electric, pneumatic, hydraulic, manual gear, or a stored energy gas hydraulic
used in nuclear applications. Most Edward valves can be equipped with an actuator if required. Where specific or special
customer requirements are needed, Edward engineering and expertise with all types of actuators can be applied and
adapted to meet the most rigid codes.
The following information on page F6 will allow Edward engineers to correctly size and select the proper motor actuator

1. Stop and Check Valve Applications Guide


1.1.1 Stop Valve Types and
Typical Uses

1.1 Stop Valve Applications

Foreword
Edward stop valves are used primarily as isolation
valves in medium and high pressure piping systems.
They are offered in a broad range of sizes, pressure
ratings, and types, and they are used in an immense
array of diverse applications. Only a few are listed for
illustration:
Normally open valves in main steam lines; used
only for equipment isolation, e.g. during maintenance.
Normally open valves to provide for emergency
shutoff due to failure of downstream piping or other
equipment; closed periodically for verification of
operability.
Normally open valves that are throttled to varying
degrees during start-up or shutdown of plants or systems.
Frequently cycled valves that are opened and
closed for control of batch processes or for start-up
and shutdown of equipment (e.g., equipment that is
on-stream daily but shut-down at night).
Normally closed valves; used only for filling or
draining systems during outages.

The goal of this guide is to supplement users experience with information based on decades of Edward
Valves laboratory tests and field experience.

Introduction
While many other types of valves (ball, plug, butterfly) are used as stop valves where service conditions
permit, emphasis in this guide is on selection and
application of Edward valves with forged- and caststeel bodies and bonnets. Comparisons are presented with other similar valves where appropriate.
Edward stop valves are typically of metal-seated construction and, where necessary, use gaskets and stem
seals designed for severe high-pressure, high-temperature service. While special designs with soft
seats and O-ring seals are supplied for unique specific applications, the standard products are designed
to stand up to tough service conditions with minimum requirements for maintenance or parts replacement.
Edward stop valves fall into two basic categories
globe valves and gate valves. The following sections of this guide will address the principal features
of each type and the design variations within the
types.

Brief notes on the advantages, disadvantages, applications and limitations of the various types of Edward
stop valves are presented in the Stop Valve
Applications Chart (section 1.1.4). Some additional
highlights of the features of these valves and some
comparisons with similar valves are presented in the
following paragraphs.

globe valves, but the less tortuous flow path yields


lower pressure drop. Angle valves are particularly
economical in piping layouts where use of this configuration eliminates an elbow and associated flanged
or welded joints.

Globe Valves
A globe valve employs a poppet or disk that opens
and closes by moving linearly along the seat axis.
There are many types of globe valve bodies, seats and
methods of guiding the disk to and from the seat.
Bodies Edward stop, stop-check and check type
globe valves are offered with three basic body styles:
Conventional or 90-bonnet globe valves are
usually the most compact, and the stem and yoke
position allow easy handwheel or actuator access and
convenience for maintenance. Relatively short stem
travel allows fast actuation. Multiple direction
changes in the flow stream result in higher pressure
drop than with other types, but streamlined flow passages in Edward valves generally yield lower pressure
drop than competitive valves of this type.

Inclined bonnet or Y type valves, such as


Univalves and Flite-Flow valves, yield lower
pressure drop than other styles, because they permit
a more nearly straight-through flow path. Typically,
they require a longer stem travel. In large sizes, this
body shape is heavier and requires a greater end-toend length than conventional globe valves.

Angle valves are otherwise similar to conventional

Stop valves are sometimes referred to as on-off


valves. They should not normally be considered as
control valves, but they are suitable for moderate or
infrequent flow-control functions. Valves that must
open and close under high differential pressure and
flow conditions (such as blowdown service) inherently function as flow-control devices while they are
stroking.
Considering the diversity of stop valve applications, it
is not surprising that there is no universal valve type
that is best for all services. Users experience with
specific applications is a valuable basis for selecting
the best valves.

Globe valves are offered in stop, stop-check, and


check versions. Stop-check valves can also be used
for isolation in unidirectional flow applications.
These valves are discussed in the Check Valves
Applications section (1.2).
The FLOW PERFORMANCE section of this catalog
provides equations and coefficients for the calculation of pressure drop across any of these valves. This
information can be used to evaluate the effects of different valve sizes and types on system energy efficiency.

1.1 Stop Valve Applications Guide (cont.)


Seats Industrial globe valves are available from
various manufacturers with a broad variety of seat
designs flat or tapered, and integral or inserted
(threaded or welded).
All Edward globe valves employ tapered seats with
area contact under load to seal over minor imperfections. Many similar valves use line-contact seats
that seal with less load when new but degrade rapidly if damaged at the seating line.
Except for hydraulic stop valves, all Edward globe
valves employ integral (hardfaced) body seats to permit compact design and assure that there can be no
leakage behind the seat.
Disk Guiding Globe valve disks may be guided
by either the stem or the body. When opened or
closed under very high differential pressure, side load
due to flow pushes a stem-guided disk eccentric to
the seat and makes it difficult to obtain a seal. Under
extreme conditions, the stem may bend.
All Edward globe valves employ body guided disks
which are held closely concentric with the body seat.
Guiding is provided at both the top and bottom of the
disk to form a fully body-guided disk piston. The bottom guide ring on the disk, and Edward innovation,
minimizes flow behind the disk and minimizes the
side load. These features make Edward globe valves
well suited to blowdown applications in which there
is a high differential pressure across the valve when it
is partially open.

Since globe valves are not symmetrical with respect


to flow, consideration must be given to the direction
of flow and differential pressure. It should be noted
that the direction of flow when open and differential
pressure when closed may not be the same in all
applications (e.g., a block valve on a feed line may
involve flow into a system when open but may need
to prevent leakage out of the system when closed).
Users should consider both factors when deciding on
the installation direction for a globe valve.

In most globe valve applications, pressure is under


the seat when the valve is closed, and the flow is from
under to over the seat (termed flow to open or
underseat flow). In installations where the downstream pressure is zero or very low, this arrangement
minimizes packing leakage problems. However,
handwheel or actuator effort to close the valve is high,
because the stem must supply enough load to both
overcome the differential pressure load across the
seat area and ensure sufficient sealing load on the
metal seat-contact surfaces. Since this flow direction
is the most common for globe valves, the flow coefficients given in the Flow Performance section of this
catalog are for underseat flow.
Globe valves can also be used with overseat flow and
pressure (flow to close), but such applications
require careful consideration. In systems with dirty
line fluids, this arrangement could lead to trapping
foreign material in locations where it would interfere
with opening. With overseat pressure, the effort to
close the valve is low, because closure and sealing
are pressure-assisted. However, the effort to open the
valve at high differential pressure is high, because the
stem must overcome the pressure force to lift the disk
(in small valves, the stem diameters approaching the
seat diameter, this may not be a problem, because the
pressure helps to lift the stem). Also, since the flow
coefficients given in this catalog are for underseat
flow, pressure-drop predictions may not be as accurate (pressure drop may be up to 10% higher with
overseat flow).
While not designed as control valves and not recommended for continuous modulation, Edward globe
valves are often used successfully for manual or automatic control during limited periods of system operation (start-up, shutdown, etc.). Some manual valves
are also used for continuous throttling or trimming.
Inclined-bonnet valves, (e.g., Univalves and FliteFlow valves) have an approximately linear flow
characteristic (CV versus % open).
The Flow Performance section of this catalog covers
only flow coefficients for fully open valves, but con-

sult Edward Valves concerning applications involving


flow control. It should be understood that severe
throttling at high pressure drops involves high energy dissipation, and serious problems (e.g., noise,
vibration, cavitation, erosion) can develop if not carefully considered when a system is designed.
Gate Valves
A gate valve employs a closure member (or assembly) that opens and closes by moving perpendicular
to the flow stream to engage two seats in the body.
There are two basically different types of gate valves
parallel-side and wedge gate in common use in
pressure-piping systems, but there are many variations in design within each type.

As compared to glove valves, all gate valves offer


straight-through flow paths which tend to produce
less pressure drop than typical globe valves of the
same nominal size. A Venturi gate valve with a smaller port than a Regular gate valve may offer a lower
first cost as well as a size and weight saving if a minimized pressure drop is not required.
The Flow Performance section of this catalog gives
comparable flow coefficients for Edward Equiwedge
gate valves and all Edward globe stop valves.
Evaluation of many valve applications has shown that
inclined-bonnet globe valves are often competitive
with gate valves when all factors are considered.

The stem in a gate valve does not have to overcome


the full differential pressure load across the valve seat
area to open or close the valve. Instead, it just has to
overcome the friction force due to that load.
Consequently, for operation at similar differential
pressures, a gate valve generally requires less effort
for actuation than a globe valve and can employ a
smaller actuator when powered operation is required.
However, a gate valve requires considerably greater
stem travel than a conventional globe or angle valve
(slightly greater than an inclined-bonnet globe valve),
so a somewhat longer time may be required for
action.
The two body seats the common feature in all ordinary gate valves can be both an advantage and a
disadvantage. Most gate valves are primarily downstream-sealing, because the closure member is
pressure-energized in that direction. However, the
upstream seating surfaces may help by limiting
leakage if the downstream seat is damaged.
Simultaneous sealing at both seats can be hazardous
if the center cavity of a closed valve is filled or partially filled with liquid and then subjected to an
increase in temperature, causing a corresponding
increase in pressure. In moderate cases, this may
cause pressure binding which can impede or prevent valve opening; in extreme cases, it may cause
pressure-boundary failure (e.g., the bonnet could
blow off).
Note: ASME/ANSI B16.34-1988 (paragraph
2.3.3) places the responsibility of the purchaser to assure that the pressure in the valve
will not exceed that allowed by the standard.
Special operating procedures, such as partially opening a valve during warm-up, may
be considered. Special internal design features or external bypass arrangements
are required in many applications. Consult
Edward
Valves
regarding
Edward
Equiwedge gate valve applications that may
be subject to possible center-cavity overpressurization.

1.1 Stop Valve Applications Guide (cont.)


Some highlights of the various types of gate valves,
including the Edward Equiwedge, are discussed
below:
Parallel-Slide Gate Valves
Edward does not offer parallel-slide valves. In these
valves, the two seats in the body are in parallel
planes, and an assembly including two gates with
parallel seating faces moves into or out of engagement with the body seats. The gates are urged into
contact with the opposing seats in the closed position
by either a spring (or a set of springs) or an internal
wedge mechanism.

Since the two gates are relatively independent, the


downstream gate is free to align with the downstream
seat, and new valves usually seal well so long as the
differential pressure across the valve is sufficient to
provide adequate seating load. Leakage may be a
problem with these valves at low differential pressures (e.g. when filling a system or during low-pressure start-up operation).
In typical parallel-slide valves, there is continuous
sliding contact between the sealing surfaces of the
gates and body seats throughout the full stem stroke.
Wearing or scoring is possible, particularly when

operating with high differential pressures, and this


may cause seat sealing to be degraded. This shearing
action may be helpful in cleaning loose debris from
the seats, however.
Wedge Gate Valves
A wedge gate valve uses one of the oldest engineering principles to provide mechanical advantage to
convert stem load to seat-sealing load. This is particularly important in low-pressure applications where
differential pressure alone may not provide sufficient
loading on the downstream seat.
Early wedge gate valves for
low pressure employed solid
wedges, and these are still
used in many small highpressure
gate
valves.
However, as industrial valve
requirements moved toward
larger sizes and higher pressures and temperatures, a
solid wedge designed to provide sufficient strength
became too rigid to accommodate the flexibility of the
valve body. The seat planes
deflect significantly in large,
high-pressure valve bodies
due to thermal effects and the
loads from connecting piping, and a rigid wedge may
either leak or bind in the closed position.
Many gate valves have been designed with flexible
one-piece wedges that have overcome these problems to some degree, but the two halves of the wedge
are not truly independent and free to align with the
two opposing body seats. It is particularly difficult to
provide torsional flexibility in the wedge to accommodate twist in the valve body.
Consequently, the Edward Equiwedge valve was
designed with two independent, flexible wedge halves
that permit relative rotation and can tilt to accommo-

date changes in the body-seat angles. The thickness


of the wedges was minimized, while maintaining
acceptable stresses, to allow deflection to accommodate out-of-flatness in the seat plane. In prototype
tests, acceptable sealing was maintained with seats
intentionally misaligned 1 in angle and up to 2 in
rotation.

The result is a valve that has high-pressure sealing


performance comparable to that of a parallel-slide
valve but that can also seal exceptionally well at low
differential pressures. The independent, flexible
wedge halves in Edward Equiwedge gate valves also
have commendable resistance to sticking or binding
in the closed position. In prototype tests, the valve
always opened with a torque less than the design
closing torque when exposed to extreme pipe-bending moments and severe thermal transients (heat-up
and cool-down).

In Edward Equiwedge gate valves, the body guides


are vertical machined grooves at each side of the
valve body which engage tongues on each side of the
wedge halves. Precision machining allows transfer of
side load from the seats to the body guides within 3%
to 5% of valve travel. Testing has proven that this
guiding system is rugged and supports the gate
assembly effectively, even in
blowdown services where high
differential pressure loads act
across the gates when the valve
is partially open.
Gate valves of any type are
usually not recommended for
throttling or modulating flowcontrol service. The seating
surfaces of the gates are subject
to impingement when partially
open, and some gate valves
reportedly exhibit instability
(internal vibration) when throttled.
Nevertheless, high-velocity flow
tests of a prototype Edward
Equiwedge gate valve produced no flow-induced
vibration, and there are cases where these valves have
been used successfully for limited flow-control functions. Consult Edward Valves concerning any proposed throttling or control applications.

All wedge gate valves have body guides that must


support the wedges when they are not in the fully
closed position. The seating surfaces of the wedges
and seats are in sliding contact only through a small
portion of the opening and closing travel, thus minimizing wear that may degrade seat sealing. Outside
that range, the side loads are transferred from the
seats to the body guides. Wear or scoring of the body
guides does not affect sealing.

1.1 Stop Valve Applications Guide (cont.)


1.1.2 Throttling Characteristics of
Edward Stop Valves
As noted in the previous section, Edward stop valves
are not normally recommended for continuous modulation, and Edward Valves should be consulted concerning applications involving flow control. This section is intended only to provide general guidelines on
flow-control characteristics of typical Edward stop
valves. These guidelines may be used for preliminary
studies relating to applications involving throttling,
but they should not be considered as a substitute for
a complete evaluation of the acceptability of a valve
for a critical application.
Figure A

Inherent Flow
Characteristics

Figure A provides typical inherent flow-characteristic curves (percent of full-open flow coefficient
versus percent opening) of the most common types of
Edward stop valves. It should be understood that
these curves are approximate, because there are variations due to size and pressure class that cannot be
represented accurately by a single curve for each
valve type. Nevertheless, these typical curves can
provide some guidance relating to control capabilities
of the various valve types.

The Equiwedge gate valve has an excellent inherent flow characteristic (concave upward), approaching that of an equal-percentage control valve.
However, this is somewhat misleading. When
installed in pipe of the same nominal size as the
valve, the pressure drop of a gate valve is so low at
large openings (e.g., over 70%) that piping flow
resistance usually overshadows that of the valve. The
gate valve would provide little control over flow in that
range.

Note the following subtle differences between the


curves in Figure A:

While not normally recommended for throttling for


the reasons cited in the previous section, the gate
valve flow-characteristic curve is attractive from a
standpoint of controlling low flow rates without
excessive sensitivity. Use of a gate valve for throttling
may be considered for some applications.

The conventional 90-bonnet globe valve provides


a relatively steep slope at small openings approaching a quick-opening characteristic. While the bodyguided disk in Edward globe valves moderates this
effect, it makes the flow coefficient very sensitive to
small changes in stem position, so it may prove difficult to control low flow rates.
The angle valve has a characteristic similar to that
of a globe valve, but it is slightly closer to linear due
to its normally higher full-open flow coefficient. An
angle valve has about the same control characteristics
as a globe valve of the same size at small openings.

1 - Conventional 90 bonnet globe valve


2 - Angle valve
3 - Flite-Flow
4 - Univalve
5 - Equiwedge Gate valve

The cast-steel Flite-Flow Y-type valve provides a


characteristic that is nearly linear over most of its
stem-travel range. For control of flow over a broad
range, the high flow efficiency of this type of valve
may permit use of a smaller valve size for a given
allowable pressure drop. The smaller size, combined
with the linear characteristic, can give improved control of low flow rates when the valve is throttled.
The forged-steel Y-type Univalve provides even
better control at very small openings because of its
double throttling characteristic as the lower diskguide ring opens the machined port in the body. Other
forged-steel valves have this characteristic to some
degree.

Operating pressure and differential pressure should


be specified.
Note: Users sometimes specify that valves
be operable at maximum differential pressure
with very low rim-pull forces. This may
require selection of gearing that may cause
two problems: (1) literally thousands of
handwheel turns for full-stroke valve operation and/or (2) capability to damage the valve
easily with rim-pull forces that are readily
applied by many operating personnel.
Manual gear actuators with high ratios provide relatively little feel to the operator, and
it is difficult to tell when a valve is fully open
or closed. Good judgment should be exercised in specifying practical rim-pull force
requirements.

1.1.3 Stop Valve Actuators and


Accessories
Most Edward stop and stop-check valves illustrated
in this catalog are shown with handwheels, and the
majority of valves are furnished for applications
where manual actuation is acceptable. Most larger
and higher-pressure globe valves are furnished with
standard Impactor handles or handwheels, which
provide up to twelve times the stem force of an ordinary handwheel, to provide for adequate seating
thrust. Impactogear assemblies on the largest globe
valves permit operation using an air wrench. These
Edward innovations permit practical manual operation of many valves that would otherwise require
gearing or power actuators.
Manual Gear Actuators
When specified, many Edward valves can be supplied
with manual actuators with gear reduction in lieu of a
handwheel. Such actuators reduce the required rimpull effort and often permit operation by one person in
cases where several people would be required to seat
the valve with a handwheel. While manual gear actuators slow down operation, they are often an attractive
option for valves that are not operated frequently.

Power Actuators
Where valves are inaccessible for manual operation
or where relatively fast opening or closing is required,
most Edward valves can be furnished with power
actuators. The most commonly used actuators are
electric actuators with torque- and position-control
features. Users frequently have individual preferences
on actuator brand names and type, so Edward valves
are furnished with Limitorque, Rotork, Auma or other
actuators to satisfy customer requirements.

Stored-Energy Actuators
For critical service applications, special balanced
Flite-Flow valves and Equiwedge gate valves are
furnished with Edward stored-energy actuators that
were developed and qualified to meet demanding
nuclear power-plant requirements. These linear actuators are commonly installed on Main Steam
Isolation Valves and Main Feedwater Isolation Valves

Edward Valves establishes actuator sizes and switch


setting based on specific valve-application requirements, using a computer program that matches the
valve and actuator operating characteristics to the
service-pressure conditions. Unlike most valve manufacturers, Edward Valves makes this selectionnot
the actuator manufacturersince we best know the
requirements of our valve. However, we must also
know the requirements of your application. As a minimum, requests for quotation should specify:
Operating pressures under-and over-seat and
differential
Maximum valve operating temperature
Ambient conditions temperature, humidity,
radiation
Motor power supply AC voltage, frequency, and
phase or DC voltage (including variance)
NEMA rating

Closing/opening time if important. If not specified, standard nominal stem speed will be 4 inches/minute (100 mm/min) for globe valves and 12
inches/min (305 mm/min) for gate valves.
Valve-stem plane vertical (stem up or down) or
horizontal
Special accessories position indicator, etc.
Any other special requirements should be clearly
specified. If there are non-standard manual-override
requirements, see the note above relative to rim-pull
forces for manual gear actuators.

1.1.4 By-Passes and Drains


When specified, larger Edward cast-steel valves are
furnished with valved by-passes and drains in accordance with ASME-ANSI B16.34 and MSS SP-45.
Cast-steel stop valves employ forged-steel Edward
globe stop valves, and cast-steel stop-check valves
use forged steel Edward stop-check valves as by-pass
valves. Sizes and by-pass valve figure numbers are as
shown on page F-2.
Drain valves for all main valves are the same as the
by-pass valves listed for stop valves. When drains are
specified without valves, the standard drain for class
300 and 600 valves is a NPT tapped hole in the valve
body, fitted with a pipe plug. For class 900 and higher-pressure valves, the standard drain is a pipe nipple, six inches (152 mm) long, socket-welded to the
valve body.

(MSIV and MFIV) that must be adjustable to close in


3 to 10 seconds in the event of a line break.

Drain sizes are the same as by-passes. By-pass


valves are particularly useful when opened before the
main valve to permit controlled warming of the valve
and downstream line in services involving steam or
other hot fluids. By-passes also can be used to partially or fully balance the differential pressure across
the main valve before opening where the downstream
line or system is of limited volume. This facilitates
opening of a gate valve or a glove valve with overseat
pressure.
Large-volume systems may require larger by-passes
for balancing in a reasonable time. If this is the case,
a special by-pass size should be specified by the purchaser. It should be noted that actuated Edward
Equiwedge gate valves do not require by-passes to
permit opening if the full differential pressure is specified for actuator sizing. See page F-2 for tables of
standard sizes and pressure classes for most applications.

General schematic of stored energy gas-hydraulic actuator.

The Edward actuator completed exhaustive qualification testing under elevated temperatures, radiation,
seismic loadings and other conditions that realistically simulated the most severe operating conditions
encountered in actual service. In addition, extensive
qualification testing was done on an Equiwedge MSIV
in combination with an Edward actuator, and over 160
of these combinations are installed in nuclear plants
on three continents.
The Edward actuator employs compressed gas-the
stored energy of closure of the valve-in a compact,
essentially spherical reservoir atop the piston of the
valve-actuating cylinder. This integral construction
eliminates reliance on external gas-storage tanks or
interconnecting piping to connect the stored-energy
gas to the power cylinder. Hydraulic fluid is pumped
into the cylinder below the piston to open the valve,
and regulated release of the fluid to a reservoir provides essential closing-speed control.

1.2 Check Valve Applications Guide


Foreword
Check valves are used in fluid circuits in applications
similar to those in which diodes are used in electrical
circuits. Reduced to simplest terms, the duty of most
check valves is to allow flow in one direction and to
prevent flow in the reverse direction. The ideal check
would have zero resistance to flow in the normal flow
direction and infinite resistance to flow (leakage) in
the reverse direction. Of course, the ideal check valve
should also be perfectly reliable and should require
no maintenance.
There are many different types of check valves, and
most do their duty well, giving long, trouble-free service. However, in the real world, no single type of
check valve achieves the ideal performance characteristics users sometimes expect. In a very few cases,
mismatching of check valves to the needs of fluid circuits has produced serious problems (noise, vibration, severe pressure surges and check-element failures with attendant gross leakage and consequential
damage to other equipment). While it is not necessary
for every application to be ideal, knowledge of the
characteristics of each type of check valve should
help system designers and valve users to select the
best type and size intelligently. This knowledge
should also help in assuring that serious problems
are avoided.

Most check valves seen deceptively simple, with only


one moving part-a poppet or flapper that appears
capable of allowing flow in only one direction.
However, this single mechanical part cannot be
expected to take the place of a sophisticated control
system that senses flow (direction, quantity, rate of
change) and provides output to (1) open the valve
fully when flow is in one direction and yet (2) close
the valve to prevent flow and leakage in the reverse
direction. Each type of check valve has features that
enable it to perform one or more of its duties well, but
each type also has weaknesses. The relative importance of these strengths and weaknesses is highly
dependent on the requirements of individual applications.

The goal of this guide is to provide application engineers and users with practical advice on check valve
selection and sizing, location in piping systems, preventive maintenance and repairs. Emphasis will be on
Edward products, but comparisons will be provided
in some cases with other types of check valves.
This guide is based on extensive testing of Edward
check valves in sizes from NPS 1/2 through 18 as
well as a reasonable sampling of other types. Since
complete performance testing of every valve type, size
and pressure class is not practical, predictions of the
performance of some valves are based on mathematical models. However, the models are based on substantial test data and are believed to be reasonably
accurate or conservative. The laboratory test files
cover over forty years. Perhaps even more important,
the files include feedback from substantial field experience-in fossil and nuclear-fueled power plants,
refineries, chemical plants, oil fields and in countless
other applications. It is hoped that this test and field
experience will help others avoid problems and pitfalls in the application and use of check valves.

Introduction
This guide has been prepared to aid fluid-system
designers in sizing and selecting check valves for
industrial and power-piping systems. Guidance is
also provided on valve orientation (inclination from
horizontal, etc.) and on location of check valves with
respect to other flow disturbances. In addition, this
guide should aid users in planning preventive maintenance programs, performing maintenance and
repairs when necessary, and in evaluating and correcting problems.

The Flow Performance section of this catalog provides equations and coefficients for the calculation of
pressure drop and the flow required to assure full
valve opening. In addition, that section provides most
of the necessary supplemental data required for routine calculations, such as water and steam
density.
This guide also provides caution notes relative to system-related problems to be avoided (such as piping
vibration, flow instability, waterhammer). Some of
these guidelines are qualitative and could involve further analysis. However, attention to these notes
should help to avoid problems.

1- Lift Check Valves


The closure element is a poppet or disk that is lifted
open by flow and which seats, usually on a mating
conical surface in the valve body, under no-flow
conditions.
2-Ball Check Valves
A lift check valve in which the closure element is a
ball.

Finally, this guide addresses check valve maintenance. History indicates that preventive maintenance
of check valves is often neglected, and this can lead
to serious valve failures which may damage other
equipment. The guidelines provided on periodic
inspection and preventive maintenance should pay off
in terms of reduced overall plant maintenance and
repair costs.

1.2.1 Check Valve Types and


Typical Uses
While other types are sometimes encountered in
power hydraulics and other specialized applications,
four basic types of check valves are commonly used
in industrial and power piping applications.

3-Swing Check Valves


The closure element is a pivoted flapper which is
swung open by flow and which seats, generally
against a mating flat surface in the valve body, under
no-flow conditions.

Emphasis in this guide is on selection and application


of forged- and cast-steel Edward products, but comparisons with other types of check valves are given
where this can be done based on valid information.

1.2 Check Valve Applications Guide (cont.)


4-Tilting-Disk Check Valve
The closure element is a pivoted disk or flapper,
somewhat like that in a swing check valve but with a
pivot axis close to the center of the flow stream. It is
swung open by flow and seats against a mating conical surface in the valve body under no-flow conditions.

There are many variations among these four basic


types of check valves. For example, springs may be
included to assist closure and counteract gravitational forces, and accessories may be provided for exercising or position indication. All Edward lift check
valves employ body-guided disks with a piston-like
extension to provide good guidance and resistance to
wear. Accordingly, they are referred to in this guide as
piston-lift check valves. In addition, Edward manufacturers stop-check valves which are piston-lift check
valves that allow positive closure for isolation, just
like globe stop valves.

Illustrations of the valve types manufactured by


Edward are provided in this catalog, and brief notes
on advantages, disadvantages, applications, and limitations are provided in the Check Valve Applications
Chart (section 1.2.2). Some further highlights of the
features of these valves are provided in the following
paragraphs.

Edward Piston-Lift Check Valves


In both small forged-steel and large cast-steel Edward
lines, three distinctly different valve body styles
appear in the illustrations inclined-bonnet globe
valve style, angle valve style, and 90-bonnet globe
valve style.

With respect to check valve function, these valves are


all similar, with only slightly different orientation limits as discussed in the Valve-Installation Guidelines
section (1.3). The main difference between these systems is in flow performance:
Inclined-bonnet piston-lift check valves produce
low pressure drop due to flow when fully open. They
have flow coefficients comparable to those of tiltingdisk check valves and only slightly lower than provided by many swing check valves.
In most cases, angle piston-lift check valves have
lower flow coefficients and thus produce more pressure drop than inclined-bonnet valves, but they are
superior to 90-bonnet valves. Where a piping system requires a bend and a valve, use of an angle piston-lift check valve eliminates the cost and pressure
drop of an elbow and the cost of associated piping
welds or flanged connections.

90-bonnet piston-lift check valves have the lowest


flow coefficients and produce pressure drops comparable to 90-bonnet globe valves. They are sometimes preferred in systems where pressure drop is not
critical or where space requirements dictate a minimum size and easy access to a handwheel or actuator
(on a stop-check valve).
Piston-lift check valves are generally the most practical type for small sizes, and they generally provide the
best seat tightness. Small forged-steel piston-lift
check valves normally include a disk-return spring,
but may be ordered without springs. The Flow
Performance section of this catalog and section 1.3
below address such valves, both with and without
springs. Cast-steel piston-lift check valves have
equalizer tubes which connect the volume above the
piston with a relatively low-pressure region near the
valve outlet. This feature allows a much larger valve
opening (and higher flow coefficient) than would be
possible otherwise, and it allows the valve to open
fully at a relatively low flow.
The body-guided feature of Edward piston-lift check
valves is an advantage in most services, because it
assures good alignment of the disk with the valve seat
and minimizes lateral vibration and wear. However,
this feature may lead to sticking problems due to foreign-material entrapment in unusually dirty systems.
Another inherent characteristic is that large piston-lift
check valves may not respond rapidly to flow reversals and may cause water-hammer problems in systems where the flow reverses quickly [see the
Pressure Surge and Waterhammer section (1.4.2)].
Since smaller valves display inherently faster
response, historic files have shown no water-hammer
problems with small forged-steel check valves.

Edward Stop-Check Valves


Stop-check valves offer the same tight sealing performance as a globe stop valve and at the same time give
piston-lift check valve protection in the event of backflow. A stop-check valve is nearly identical to a stop
valve, but the valve stem is not connected to the disk.
When the stem is in the open position, the disk is
free to open and close in response to flow, just as in
a piston-lift check valve. When serving as a check
valve, stop-check valves display the same advantages
and disadvantages as discussed above for piston-lift
check valves. Small forged-steel stop-check valves,
except the Univalve stop-check valves, employ a
disk-return spring, and cast-steel stop-check valves
have equalizer tubes that function in the same manner
as those on comparable piston-lift check valves.

The stem in the stop-check valve may be driven either


by a handwheel or an actuator, and it may be used
either to (1) prevent flow in the normal direction when
necessary for isolation or (2) supplement line pressure to enhance seat tightness in applications with
pressure from the downstream side. Some users
automate stop-check valves to give extra system protection against reverse flow and leakage. For example,
an actuator may be signaled to close the valve when a
pump is shut off; the disk closes quickly by normal
check valve action, and the stem follows to seat the
valve firmly a short time later.

1.2 Check Valve Applications Edward (cont.)


Edward Ball Check Valves
Ball check valves are offered only in small forgedsteel configurations (size 2 and smaller) with
inclined-bonnet bodies and ball-return springs.
These valves are recommended over piston check
valves, for service with viscous fluids or where there
is scale or sediment in the system. The bolted-bonnet
versions offer flow performance that is generally similar to that of equivalent piston-lift check valves, and
they are the preferred ball check valves for most
industrial and power-piping applications.
The threaded-bonnet hydraulic ball check valves are
used primarily in very high pressure, low-flow applications with viscous fluids. They have lower flow
coefficients that have proven acceptable for those services. These valves sometimes exhibit chattering tendencies when handling water, so they are not recommended for low-viscosity fluids.
A unique feature of the ball check valve is that the ball
closure element is free to rotate during operation,
allowing the ball and seat to wear relatively evenly.
This feature, combined with the standard return
spring, helps to promote positive seating even with
heavy, viscous fluids.

Edward Tilting-Disk Check Valves


Tilting-disk check valves are particularly well-suited
to applications where rapid response and freedom
from sticking are essential. Fully open valves of this
type also exhibit low pressure drop. They have flow
coefficients comparable to those of Edward inclinedbonnet piston-lift (Flite-Flow) check valves and
only slightly lower than provided by many swing
check valves.

Tilting-disk check valves provide rapid response,


because the center of mass of the disk is close to the
pivot axis. Just as in a pendulum, this characteristic
promotes rapid motion of the disk toward its natural
(closed) position whenever the force holding it open
is removed. This response can be valuable in applications where relatively rapid flow reversals may
occur, such as in pump-discharge service where multiple pumps discharge into a common manifold. In
such cases, the flow may reverse quickly, and the
rapid response of the tilting-disk check valve minimizes the magnitude of the reverse velocity and the
resulting waterhammer pressure surge. This characteristic also minimizes impact stresses on the disk
and body seats. However, an extremely rapid flow
reversal, as might be produced by an upstream pipe
rupture, could cause a problem. See the Pressure
Surge and Water Hammer section (1.4.2) for further
discussion.
Size-6 and larger tilting-disk check valves have
totally enclosed torsion springs in their hinge pins to
help initiate the closing motion, but the disk is counterweighted to fully close without the springs. With
the free pivoting action of the disk, this type of valve
is highly immune to sticking due to debris in the
system.
Tilting-disk check valve are superficially similar to
swing check valves in that both operate on a pivotingdisk principle. However, the pivot axis in a swing
check valve is much farther from the disks center of
mass, and this increases the pendulum period and
hence the time required for closure in services with
flow reversal. In addition, the one-piece disk in the
tilting-disk check valve avoids the necessity of internal fasteners and locking devices, which are required
to secure disks to pivot arms in most swing check
valves. However, like swing check valves, tilting-disk
check valves have hinge pins and bearings that are
subject to wear due to disk flutter if the valve is not
fully open and/or there are flow disturbances or instabilities. Such wear may product eccentricity of the
disk and seat when the valve closes, leading to a
degradation of seat tightness (particularly at low dif-

ferential pressures). Applications involving severely


unstable flow or prolonged service without preventive
maintenance can lead to failures in which the disk
separates completely from the hinge pins and will not
close. Other sections of this guide address the flow
conditions which may lead to problems as well as
maintenance recommendations.
Edward Elbow-Down Check and StopCheck Valves
Elbow-down piston-lift check and stop-check valves
are similar to Flite-Flow valves except that the valve
outlet is in the form of an elbow to direct the flow
downward. These valves were designed specifically
for applications in controlled-circulation power
plants, and they have special clearances and other
design features. Because of these special features, the
sizing and pressure-drop calculation methods given
in the Flow Performance section of this catalog do not
apply. However, special elbow-down valves can be
furnished with conventional check valve design features for applications where this valve-body geometry
is desirable.

Edward Combinations of Check and


Stop-Check Valves
As noted in the Foreword to this section (1.2), no single type of check valve achieves ideal performance
characteristics. The advantages and disadvantages
noted in the Check Valve Applications Chart (section
1.2.2) and other information in this catalog should
assist in selection of the best valve size and type for
any specific application. However, the selection of any
single valve may require undesirable compromises.
Some system designers and users specify two check
valves in series for critical applications, and this does
give some insurance that at least one valve will close
even if the other valve fails. However, if two identical
valves are used, a system characteristic that is troublesome to one valve could produce problems with
both. In such cases, use of two valves does not assure
double safety or double life. Sometimes it is worth
considering the selection of two different types of
check valve, each with advantages to offset disadvantages of the other.
One specific check valve combination has been used
in applications of Edward valves to provide advantages that no single valve can offer. A tilting-disk
check valve in series with a piston-lift check valve
offers minimum waterhammer and freedom from
sticking (from the tilting-disk) and good seat tightness (from the piston-lift check). The disadvantage is
added pressure drop and cost, but the pressure-drop
penalty is minor if the Flite-Flow inclined-bonnet piston-lift check valve is used. Even the cost penalty may
be offset if a stop-check valve is used, because it may
be able to take the place of a stop valve that would be
required otherwise for isolation.

1.3 Check and Stop-Check Valve Installation Guidelines

Maximum Check Valve Orientation Limits

Figure 2
90 Bonnet Piston Lift Check Valves
Maximum Valve Orientation Limits

Note: For piston lift check valves, any installation resulting in combined out of position orientation, such as
a valve in an inclined line with a rollover angle as well, should limit the angle of the bonnet to the following:
45 from vertical for angle and 90bonnet valves.
50 from vertical for inclined bonnet valves.

Unlike stop valves, which can be installed in any position with little or no effect on performance, most check
and stop-check valves have limitations as to their
installed orientation. Although the normal installation
is in a horizontal or vertical line (depending on valve
type), check and stop-check valves can be installed in
other orientations. It should be noted, however, that
valves installed in other than the normal positions may
exhibit a degradation of performance, service life and
resistance to sticking, depending on the flow conditions and cleanliness of the line fluid. For maximum
reliability, it is recommended that piston-lift check
valves and stop-check valves be installed with flow
axis horizontal (vertical inlet and horizontal outlet for
angle valves) with the bonnet above the valve in a vertical plane. Following are maximum out-of-position
orientations that may be used for less critical applications and which should never be exceeded.
All Edward forged-steel check and stop-check valves
(except Univalve stop-check valves) are normally
furnished with spring-loaded disks and may be
installed in any position. The spring-loaded disk
enables positive closure regardless of valve position.
However, installed positions in which dirt or scale can
accumulate in the valve neck should be avoided. An
example of this would be an inclined-bonnet valve
installed in a vertical pipeline with downward flow. If
forged-steel valves are ordered without springs, the
limitations below should be observed.
Edward cast-steel Flite-Flow, forged-steel Univalve, and inclined-bonnet check and stop-check
valves without springs, when installed in vertical or
near vertical lines, should be oriented such that the
fluid flow is upward and the angle of incline of the line
is not more than 5 past the vertical in the direction of
the bonnet. When installed in horizontal or near horizontal lines, the valve bonnet should be up and the
angle of incline of the line should be not more than 5
below the horizontal. See Figure 1A. Also, the roll
angle of the valve bonnet should not be more than 20
from side to side for either vertical or horizontal installations. See Figures 1B and 1C. Consult your Edward
Valves representative concerning installation limits of
bolted-bonnet forged-steel check valves without
springs.

Edward cast-steel and forge-steel 90-bonnet check


and stop-check valves without springs should be
installed with the bonnet up, and the angle of incline of
the line should not be more than 45 form the horizontal. Also, the roll angle of the valve bonnet should
not be more than 45 from side to side. See Figures 2A
and 2B.
Edward cast-steel and forged-steel angle check and
stop-check valves without springs should be oriented
such that the incoming flow is upward, and the angle
of incline of the line should not be more than 45 in
either direction. See Figure 3A and 3B.
Edward tilting-disk check valves may be installed in
horizontal lines and vertical lines and at any incline
angle in between. When the incline angle is not horizontal, flow should always be up. The roll angle of the
valve should not be more than 30 from side to side.
See Figures 4A and 4B. Also, when installed in other
than vertical lines, the bonnet should always be oriented up.
In each case described above, the limitations given for
line inclination and bonnet roll angle should not be
combined.
It should be understood that the information given in
the section of this catalog entitled Flow Performance is
based on traditional horizontal orientations. For other
orientations, the pressure drop and flow required for
full lift may be affected. In addition, seat tightness, particularly at low differential pressures, may be adversely affected.
Orientation restrictions may also exist for power-actuated stop-check valves. Most linear valve actuators are
designed to be mounted upright and nearly vertical,
although they can usually be modified for mounting in
any position. When selecting a stop-check valve and
power actuator, be sure to specify the mounting position desired if not vertical and upright.

1.3.1 Adjacent Flow Disturbances


Check valves, like other valve types, are generally
tested for performance and flow capacity in long,
straight-pipe runs. Flow coefficients obtained from
these tests are then used to predict the flow rate or
pressure drop that will be experienced in actual applications. The ideal installation of a check valve in a
plant would be in a long run of straight pipe so that
performance would correspond to the test conditions.
Since space limitations involved with many installations preclude such ideal straight-pipe runs, the
effects of adjacent pipe fittings, control valves,
pumps and other flow disturbances must be considered.

Previously published data have indicated that flow


disturbances, particularly upstream disturbances,
may significantly affect check valve performance. It
has been reported that valve flow capacity may be
significantly reduced as compared to that measured
in straight-pipe tests, and there have been strong
suggestions that such disturbances aggravate check
valve flutter and vibration. Since these conditions
could degrade valve performance and contribute to
rapid wear and premature valve failure, they are
important factors in evaluating check valve applications. Figure 5 illustrates how upstream pipe fittings
may alter the flow profile entering a check valve,
crowding it to one side or the other. A similar distortion occurs in a valve located near the discharge of a
centrifugal pump or blower, as shown in Figure 6.
Elbows in two planes cause a flow stream to swirl,
which might produce unusual effects on a check
valve installed as shown in Figure 7.

1.3 Check and Stop-Check Valve Installation Guidelines (cont.)


Since there was no known way to predict the effects of
flow disturbances on check valves by mathematical
models, Edward conducted extensive testing of size 2,
4, 8 and 10 check valves in straight-pipe runs and in
piping with upstream flow disturbances. Figures 8
and 9 illustrate typical flow-test setups.

Figure 8
Size 4 Class 600 90 bonnet piston lift check valve
with two upstream elbows (out of plane). This
arrangement produces swirl as shown in Figure 7.

Figure 9
Size 10 Class 1500 Flite-Flow inclined bonnet piston lift check valve with two upstream elbows. Test
loop capacity permitted tests with line velocity over
20 ft./sec. (6 m/sec.).

In most tests, room temperature water was the flow


medium, but limited straight-pipe testing was performed with air. The valves tested included Edward
piston-lift check (inclined-bonnet, angle and 90bonnet), tilting-disk check valves and a size-4 swing
check valve manufactured by another company. The
tests were designed to evaluate the effects of flow disturbances on (1) valve stability, particularly when partially open; (2) flow rate required to open the valve
fully; and (3) the flow coefficient (CV) of the valve. The
flow disturbances evaluated included single and double (out of plane) 90 elbows in various orientations
immediately upstream of the check valves. In addition, the effects of a throttled, upstream control valve
were simulated with an offset-disk butterfly valve (at
various throttle positions) mounted immediately
upstream, as well as at five and eleven pipe diameters
upstream, of the check valves.
With few exceptions, tests with 10 or more diameters
of straight pipe upstream of check valves produced
little cause for concern. In water flow tests, visual
position indicators usually showed only minor disk
wobble or very small open-close flutter (e.g. less
than 1 total rotation of a tilting disk), even at very low
flows and small valve openings. The only conditions
that produced severe instability were those involving
air flow at very low pressures (below 50 psi or 3.4
bar) and valve openings less than 20%. Such conditions produced significant cyclic motion, with disks
bouncing on and off the body seats. In view or the
many uncertainties in applying laboratory test results
to service conditions, it is considered prudent to
avoid operating conditions which produce check
valve openings of less than 25%, even in ideal
straight-pipe applications.
Highlights of the results of the Edward tests with flow
disturbances are given in Table A on page G17. The
test program clearly showed that upstream flow disturbances do affect check valve performance, but the
effect is not always predictable. The magnitude of the
effect can vary, depending on the type and even the
size of the valve. In some cases, even the direction of
the effect (improvement or degradation) varies from

valve to valve. Nevertheless, some general observations on the results of these tests are:
Single and double upstream elbows produced less
severe effects on check valve performance than had
been expected, and some valves displayed no discernible effects. For example, Edward angle piston-lift
check valves exhibited the same stability, lift and flow
coefficients (CV) with upstream elbows as with
straight pipe. In tests of other types of valves,
upstream elbows produced both beneficial and
adverse effect to various degrees.
In each case where a check valve was tested with a
throttled butterfly valve immediately upstream, there
were significant effects on performance. The effects
included increased disk flutter and reduced valve
opening at a given flow, as compared to straight-pipe
performance. In some cases, full check valve opening
could not be achieved at any flow within the capabilities of the test loop.
Even where full opening was obtained, some valves
continued to flutter on and off their stops. These
effects were worst when the butterfly valve was most
severely throttled (smallest opening and highest
pressure drop). In the worst cases, the butterfly valve
exhibited audible cavitation, but it is not clear whether
the adverse effects resulted from simple flow distortion or the two-phase flow stream from the cavitating
butterfly valve.

extrapolate a laboratory test to years of service in a


plant installation, but Edward se vice files include an
interesting and relevant incident. Two size-12 tiltingdisk check valves in one plant had hinge-pin failures
over a time period of several months after 25 years of
service. While this incident might best be cited as a
case for more inspection and preventive maintenance,
the details of the installation were investigated. It was
determined that the flow rates were in a range that
should have assured full disk opening, but the valves
were installed close to upstream elbows.
Users of this catalog may wish to refer to EPRI Report
No. NP 5479 (see the Sources for Additional
Information section of this catalog) for further data on
the performance of swing check valves in tests similar to those conducted by Edward. The size-4 swing
check valve used in the Edward test program had a
stop positioned to restrict the disk-opening angle to
about 38. This valve opened fully at a relatively low
flow and exhibited reasonably stable performance.
The tests sponsored by EPRI showed that other swing
check valves (with less restrictive stops) exhibited
larger amplitudes of flutter than were observed in
comparable Edward tests.

In similar tests with the butterfly valve moved 5 diameters upstream of the check valve (but with similar
throttling), the adverse performance effects were
decreased significantly but not eliminated. When the
butterfly valve was moved 11 diameters upstream of
the check valve, normal check valve performance was
restored.
The results of these tests were enlightening, but they
must be combined with observations based on field
experience. For example, while upstream elbows produced less severe effects than expected, there were
still adverse effects on some valves. It is difficult to

1.3 Check and Stop-Check Valve Installation Guidelines (cont.)


The following guidelines are based on Edward tests
and field experience, combined with other published
information:
If possible, check valves near flow disturbances
should be sized to be fully open, preferably by a good
margin, even at the lowest sustained flow rate anticipated for each application. The Flow Performance
section of this catalog provides methods for sizing
Edward check valves for new installations or for evaluating existing applications. When flow-induced
forces load a valve closure element firmly against a
stop, it is less likely to flutter and suffer from rapid
wear.
Full opening does not guarantee freedom from problems if the margin is not sufficient to provide a firm
load against the stop. Equalizers on Edward cast-steel
piston-lift check and stop-check valves enhance this
margin and provide good stop loading, but flow disturbances may cause other valve disks to bounce on
and off their stops. This tapping phenomenon may
cause faster wear than flutter about a partially open
position. For this reason, the minimum sustained
flow rate through a tilting-disk check valve near flow
disturbances should be about 20% greater than the
flow rate required to just achieve full opening.

In the specific case of upstream elbows, reasonably


successful performance should be attainable with 5
diameters of straight pipe between an upstream elbow
and a check valve if the valve will not be partially open
for a significant portion of its service life. Tests
described in EPRI Report No. NP 5479 indicate that
elbows installed 5 diameters or more upstream had a
negligible effect on swing check valves, and this is
expected to be true for other check valve types. Even
less straight pipe may be satisfactory, but such close
spacing should be reserved for applications with very
tight space constraints. More frequent inspection and
preventive maintenance should be planned for valves
in such installations.

In view of uncertainties associated with long-term


effects of flow disturbances, it is recommended that a
minimum of 10 diameters of straight pipe be provided between the inlet of a check valve and any
upstream flow disturbance (fittings, pumps, control
valves, etc.), particularly if calculations indicate that
the check valve will not be fully open for a substantial
portion of the valve service life. There should be a
minimum of 1 to 2 diameters of pipe between the
check valve and the nearest downstream flow disturbance.

Users with existing check valve installations that do


not meet these guidelines should plan more frequent
inspection and preventive maintenance for such
valves. If a check valve is installed close to an
upstream control valve that operates with a high pressure drop, considerations should be given to a
change in piping or valve arrangements.

If it is not possible to assure full opening of a check


valve at minimum flow conditions, at least 25%
opening should be assured. Valves operating at partial opening for significant periods of time should be
monitored regularly to determine if there is insta
bility or wear.

In the specific case of throttled upstream control


valves, the minimum requirement of 10 upstream
pipe diameters should be adhered to rigidly. Calculations indicating full valve opening based on straightpipe tests cannot be trusted to prevent problems,
because severe flow disturbances may prevent full
opening. Even greater lengths of straight pipe should
be considered if the control valve operates with very
high pressure drop or significant cavitation.

1.3 Check and Stop-Check Valve Installation Guidelines (cont.)


1.3.2 Other Problem Sources
In addition to the fundamentals of check valve selection, sizing and installation, several other potential
sources of check valve problems should be considered in applications engineering or, if necessary, in
solving problems with existing installations:
Piping-System Vibration
In other sections of this guide, it has been noted that
check valve damage or performance problems may
result from flow-induced flutter or vibration of the closure element. Very similar damage may result from
piping-system vibration. Such vibration may originate at pumps, cavitating control valves or other
equipment. Check and stop-check valves are susceptible to vibration damage, because the check element
is free floating when partially open, with only the
forces due to fluid flow to balance the moving weight.
Impact damage and internal wear may result if the
valve body vibrates while internal parts attempt to
remain stationary. This condition may be avoided by
adequately supporting the piping system near the
check valve or by damping vibration at its source. Of
course, it is helpful to assure that the check element
opens fully, because flow forces at the disk-stop help
to inhibit relative motion.

Debris in Line Fluid


Debris in the flow stream can cause damage and performance problems in check and stop-check valves.
Debris entrapped between the disk and seat may prevent full closure and lead directly to seat leakage. If
hard particles or chips are in the debris, they may
damage the seating surfaces and contribute to seat
leakage even after they are flushed away. Debris
caught between the disk and the body bore of a piston-lift check valve can cause the disk to jam and prevent full opening or closing. To insure best check
valve performance and seat tightness, line fluids
should be kept as clean as practical. As noted before,
tilting-disk check valves are particularly resistant to
sticking or jamming, but they are no more resistant to
seat damage than other types.

Unsteady (Pulsating) Flow


An unsteady flow rate can lead to rapid check valve
damage, particularly if the minimum flow during a
cycle is not sufficient to hold the valve fully open. The
valve may be damaged just because it does what a
check valve is designed to do open and close in
response to changes in flow. As an example, a check
valve installed too close to the outlet of a positive displacement pump may attempt to respond to the discharge of each cylinder. If the mean flow during a
cycle is low, the disk may bounce off the seat repeatedly in a chattering action. If the mean flow is higher,
the disk may bounce on and off the full-open stop.
Such pulsating flows may be difficult to predict. For
example, a steam leak past the seat of an upstream
stop valve may produce a percolating action in a
line filled with condensate and cause a check valve to
cycle. Such problems may only be discovered by preventive maintenance inspections.
Vapor Pockets in Liquid Piping
Systems
Unusual phenomena are sometimes observed in piping systems containing hot water that partially vaporizes downstream of a closed check valve. Vapor pockets at high points may collapse suddenly when the
check valve opens (due to the start-up of a pump, for
example). This collapse may be remote from the
check valve and have no effect on the check valve performance. However, if a vapor pocket exists in the
upper part of a piston-lift check or stop-check valve
body (above the disk), the collapse may generate
unbalanced forces in the direction of disk opening.
Since the vapor offers little fluid resistance, rapid
acceleration of the disk toward the fully open position
may occur. In extreme cases, the disk or bonnet stops
may be damaged due to impact. Such thermodynamic quirks are difficult to anticipate when designing a
piping system and are sometimes as difficult to diagnose if they occur in an existing installation. Changes
in piping arrangements or operating procedures may
be necessary if severe problems occur. It is possible
that similar problems may occur during low-pressure
start-up operations in unvented liquid-piping systems.

1.4 Check Valve Performance


1.4.1 Check Valve Seat Tightness
Edward check valves are factory-tested with water in
accordance with MSS SP-61 (Manufacturers
Standardization Society of the Valve and Fittings
Industry, Inc.) at an overseat pressure of 1.1 times the
pressure ratings of the valve. While check valves are
allowed leakage rates up to 40 ml/hr per unit of nominal valve size by MSS SP-61, Edward allows no
more than 5% of this leakage for cast-steel valves and
no visible leakage for forged-steel valves. Tilting-disk
and forged-steel check valves are then tested again at
a reduced pressure with allowable leakage rates
which are less than the MSS SP-61 requirements.
Closed check valve closure elements (disk, ball, flapper, etc.) are acted on by a combination of forces produced by gravity, springs (where applicable) and
reversed differential pressure. While gravity and
spring forces help to position the closure element into
the substantially closed position, metal-to-metal
seating check valves typically rely on pressure forces
to produce the seating loads necessary for good seat
tightness.

Some metal-seated check valves do not produce


good seat tightness at low differential pressures, particularly when the pressure increases from zero. A
threshold level of differential pressure is required to
produce uniform metal-to metal contact and restrict
leakage to a reasonable rate. An even higher level is
required to assure that a valve meets leakage-rate criteria like those in MSS SP-61. Unfortunately, these
levels of differential pressure are difficult to predict;
they vary with valve type, condition and orientation
(and with cleanliness of line fluid).
Tests of new valves in horizontal lines show that caststeel inclined-bonnet and 90-bonnet piston-lift
check and tilting-disk check valves seal off reasonably well at under 50 psi (3.4 bar) when differential
pressure increases from zero. Small forged-steel ball
and piston-lift check valves are less consistent,
sometimes seating at less than 50 psi (3.4 bar) and
sometimes requiring 250 psi (17 bar) or more. This

seating action often occurs suddenly when the


pressure forces shift the closure element into good
metal-to metal contact with the body seat, and leakage generally continues to decrease as the pressure is
increased. Once seated, most valves seal well if pressure is reduced below the threshold required for initial seating, but the seat tightness with reducing pressure is also difficult to predict.
Some of the Edward check valves described in this
catalog have been manufactured with soft seats to
provide improved seat tightness at low differential
pressures. This design feature includes an elastomeric or plastic sealing member on the valve closure element to supplement the basic metal-to-metal seating
function. Since the design and material selection for
these sealing members are very sensitive to pressure,
temperature and compatibility with the line fluid, there
are no standard, general-purpose, soft-seated valves.
Consult Edward Valves for further information about
specific applications.
Foreign material in the flow medium is a major source
of leakage problems in many valves. Because of the
limited seating forces in check valves, dirt has a far
greater effect on the tightness of these valves than
other types. Attention to cleanliness of the fluid is
necessary where good check valve seat tightness is
desired.
Incorrect sizing or misapplication of a check valve
can also lead to leakage problems. Chattering of the
closure element on its seat due to insufficient flow or
pressure can cause damage to the seat or closure
element and result in leakage.
In applications where check valve leakage is a problem, a stop-check valve may offer the solution. Stem
load from a handwheel or actuator can provide the
necessary seating force independent of pressure. Of
course, the stem must be returned to the open position to allow flow in the normal direction. Consult
Edward Valves about applications that are usually
sensitive to leakage.

1.4.2 Pressure Surge and


Waterhammer
A complete treatment of the subject of pressure surge
and waterhammer is beyond the scope of this catalog,
but some discussion is provided so that application
engineers may appreciate the significance of the
problem as it relates to check valves.
One part of the problem is that the terminology or jargon is not consistently used. For example, waterhammer or steam hammer is sometimes used to
describe the implosion which occurs when water
enters a hot, low pressure region and causes a steam
void to collapse. This has occurred in systems with a
failed check valve, where the water came back from a
large reverse flow through the check valve. However,
the more common waterhammer problem associated with check valves occurs as a result of the check
valve closing and suddenly terminating a significant
reversed flow velocity. This problem is generally
associated with valves handling water or other liquids. A similar pressure surge phenomenon may be
encountered with steam or gas, but it is generally
much less serious with a compressible flow
medium.
Waterhammer is a pressure surge produced by the
deceleration of a liquid column, and it involves pressure waves that travel at close to the velocity of sound
through the fluid. It is commonly illustrated in texts
by an example involving rapid closure or a valve in a
long pipe. For such a case, it can be shown that
instantaneous closure of a valve in a room-temperature water line will produce an increase in pressure of
about 50 psi (3.4 bar) above the steady-state pressure
for every 1 ft/sec (0.30 m/sec) decrease in water
velocity. Even if the valve does not close instantaneously, the same pressure increase would develop if
the upstream pipe is long enough to prevent reflected
pressure waves from reaching the valve before it closes. The waves of increasing pressure that are generated by the closing valve reflect from a constantpressure reservoir or vessel, if present in the system,
and return to the valve as inverted waves that
decrease pressure. A solution to the textbook prob-

lem is to slow down the valve closure so that the


reflected pressure waves attenuate the surge.
However, this is not necessarily the best approach in
the case of a check valve.
In a check valve, the fluid velocity is forward before
the valve starts to close, but it reduces due to some
system action (e.g., a pump is shut off). If the velocity reverses before the valve closes, a waterhammer
surge will be produced by a conventional check valve
that is nearly proportional to the magnitude of the
maximum reversed velocity. Figure 10 provides
curves illustrating flow transients associated with different types of systems and flow interruptions. The
graphs illustrate velocity in the pipe, forward and
reverse, versus time on arbitrary scales. The following
discussions describe each of the curves:
Curve A illustrates flow coast-down in a simple
circulating loop, such as a cooling system, following
switch-off of pump power. The momentum of the
pump impeller and the fluid keeps the fluid going forward until it is decelerated and finally stopped by friction. There would be no need for a check valve to prevent reverse flow in this system, but one might be
included to permit pump maintenance without draining other equipment. In normal operation of this
system, the check valve could produce no waterhammer.
Curve B illustrates an application with a pump
feeding a high-pressure system with a fairly large volume. It might represent a boiler feed system of a
pump feeding a high reservoir. In this case, assuming
similar momentum in the pump and fluid, forward
flow continues for a while after the pump is switched
off, but the downstream pressure decelerates the flow
more rapidly and then reverses its direction. Without
a check valve, the reverse flow would increase and
stabilize at some value, unless the downstream system pressure declined. In the illustration, the magnitude of the maximum reverse velocity is drawn less
than the initial forward velocity, but it might be higher in some systems.

Curve C illustrates what would happen in the sysFigure 11 - Controlled Closure Check Valve (CCCV)

tem described for Curve B with a fast-response check


valve (e.g., a tilting-disk type) installed. As discussed
in the Foreword to this guide, an ideal check valve
would allow no reverse flow and would close exactly
at the time the velocity curve passes through zero;
there would be no waterhammer. A real check valve
starts closing while the flow is still forward, but it lags
the velocity curve. With fast response, it closes before
a high reverse velocity develops, thus minimizing the
waterhammer surge.
Curve D illustrates the same system with a check
valve that responds just a bit slower. It shows that just
a small increase in check valve lag may allow a large
increase in reverse velocity (and a corresponding
increase in waterhammer surge pressure).
Curve E illustrates an accidental situation that
might develop with a severely worn valve or a dirty
system. If a check valve in the system described
above should stick open, it might allow the reverse
velocity to build up so as to approach that which
would occur without a check valve. If the reverse flow
forces should then overcome the forces that caused
the sticking, the resulting valve stem could cause a
damaging waterhammer surge.
Curve F illustrates what might happen in the system described for Curve B if there were a major pipe
rupture just upstream of the check valve. With free
discharge through the open end, the flow would
decelerate much more rapidly and, without a check
valve, reach a much higher reverse velocity.

Dashpot Chamber
Curve G shows the response of the system in
Curve F if even a fast-response conventional check
valve were to be used. With a flow deceleration this
rapid, even a small lag may result in a very high
reverse velocity to be arrested and a correspondingly
high waterhammer surge.

Fortunately, it is not necessary to design every piping


system with a check valve to cope with a pipe rupture.
However, this requirement has emerged in some
power-plant feedwater piping systems. Edward analyses and tests have shown that even the most rapidresponding conventional check valve could produce

unacceptable
waterhammer
surges. This led to the development of the special controlled-closure check valve (CCCVsee Figure 11). Since high
reverse velocities are inevitable, the CCCV solves the
problem the way the textbook problem discussed
above is solvedby closing slowly. The CCCV is a
piston-lift check valve, but it has an internal dashpot
which slows the closing speed of the valve. Closing
speed depends on the rate at which water is squeezed
out of the dashpot chamber, through flow paths that
are sized for each application.
Curve H illustrates the velocity variation in the
pipe-rupture situation described for Curve F, but with
a CCCV in the line. In this case, the maximum reverse
velocity might even be higher than in Curve G, but it
is decelerated back to zero slowly, allowing reflected
reducing-pressure waves to minimize the resulting
waterhammer surge. Figure 12 provides a comparison between a conventional check valve and a CCCV
for a specific pipe-rupture situation. Note that the
conventional check valve closes in 0.07 seconds as
compared to 1.0 seconds for CCCV. As a result, the
conventional check valve produced a surge of 3000
psi (207 bar) while the CCCV limits the surge to 600
psi (41 bar). These characteristics have been demonstrated in tests and can be duplicated in computerbased dynamic analysis simulations of specific
valves and systems.
While the CCCV solves a special problem, even this
sophisticated product does not fulfill the definition of
an ideal check valve. By closing slowly, it allows significant reverse blow before it seats. This characteristic might be undesirable in common pump-discharge
applications, because the reverse flow might have
adverse effects on pumps or other equipment. Studies
of systems designs sometimes show that fastresponse check valves, such as the tilting-disk type,
should be retained at pump discharge points where
an upstream pipe rupture is unlikely, with CCCVs
applied at locations where an upstream pipe rupture
could cause serious consequences (e.g., in feedwater
lines inside the containment vessel of a nuclear
power plant).

1.4 Check Valve Performance (cont.)

Example Comparison of Closure Time and Surge Pressure


Conventional vs Controlled Closure Check Valves

Figure 13

Reverse Flow in Conventional Swing Check Valve - Just Before Closing

In Curves C, D, E, and G of Figure 10, it may be noted


that the final terminations of reverse velocity are
shown as substantially vertical lines. This does not
imply that the valve closes instantaneously. However,
tests of conventional check valves show that the
reverse velocity in the pipe containing the valve does
terminate almost instantaneously. This apparent contradiction may be understood by referring to Figure
13, which illustrates a check valve approaching the
closed position with reverse flow (while the illustration depicts a swing check valve, the flow condition
discussed here would be much the same with a poppet or disk in a conventional lift check or piston-lift
check valve).
The key observation from Figure 13 is that a column
of fluid follows the closure element at roughly the
same velocity that the closure element has as it
approaches its seating surface in the valve body.
While the valve may start to close while the flow
velocity is still forward (see Figure 10), an undamped
check valve has little effect on pipe flow during closure, and the disk velocity is about the same as the
reverse flow velocity in the pipe at the instant just
before closure. Since the disk is stopped substantially instantaneously when it makes metal-to-metal contact with the body seat, the reverse flow velocity in the
pipe must also be arrested instantaneously. Because
of this characteristic, the surge produced by the slam
of a conventional check valve cannot be attenuated
significantly by reflected reducing-pressure waves,
and the surge tends to be relatively insensitive to system pipe lengths.
In some check valve applications, problems have
been observed due to a phenomenon that is related to
waterhammer but not as widely recognized. When a
high-pressure wave is produced on the downstream
side of a check valve at closure, a reverse low-pressure wave is produced on the upstream side. If this
low-pressure wave reduces the fluid pressure to
below the saturation pressure of the fluid, a vapor
pocket can form. This can be compared to a tensile
failure of the flow stream, and it is sometimes referred

to as column separation or column rupture. This


vapor pocket is unstable and will collapse quickly,
with an implosion that produces a high-pressure
spike. It is possible for this pressure surge to
exceed the one initially produced on the downstream
of the check valve. Instrumented laboratory tests have
shown that the upstream pressure spike sometimes
causes the disk to reopen slightly and bounce off its
seat once or twice. In very rare occasions, sometimes
involving systems with multiple check valves, this
characteristic has been known to amplify, leading to
damaging pipe vibrations.
In summary, waterhammer can produce complex
problems in check valve applications. Numerical
solutions to these problems require sophisticated
computer-based dynamic analyses of both the check
valve and the fluid in the piping system. This catalog
does not provide the methods for making such analyses; instead, the information in this section is intended to assist fluid-system designers in avoiding the
problem.
Users who already have check valves in liquid flow
lines that emit loud slams when they close should
be aware that the noise is probably associated with
pressure surges that could lead to fatigue problems in
the valve, piping or other components. Where the
existing check valve is a piston-lift check or stopcheck valve, the solution could be to add a tilting-disk
check valve in series with the existing check valve to
gain the advantages of both valve types. Where the
existing valve is a swing check valve, replacement by
a tilting-disk check valve might be considered. See
the section of this catalog entitled Check Valve Types
and Typical Uses (1.2.1) for a discussion of the
strengths and weaknesses of the various valve types.

1.4 Check Valve Performance (cont.)


1.4.3 Check Valve Accessories and
Special Features
Edward Check valves can be provided with various
accessories which are used to induce check-element
motion (exercise) or indicate check-element position.
Some of the features available are as follows:
Visual disk-position indicator for tilting-disk
check valve
Electrical open/close position indicator for tiltingdisk or cast-steel piston-lift check valve
Manual or pneumatic actuator to partially open tilting-disk check valve under zero differential pressure
CCCVs can be furnished with an injection port
which allows the valve disk to be exercised by
injecting water into the dashpot chamber when the
valve is under a zero differential pressure.

1.4.4 Check/Stop-Check Valve


Periodic Inspection and
Preventive Maintenance
Periodic inspection and preventive maintenance of
check and stop-check valves should be performed to
insure that the valves are operating properly. Bonnetjoint leakage and packing leakage on stop-check
valves are easy to detect. Seat leakage of a check or
stop-check valve might be indicated by one of the following: a definite pressure loss on the high-pressure
side of the valve; continued flow through an inspection drain on the low-pressure side; or, in hot water or
steam lines, a downstream pipe that remains hot
beyond the usual length of time after valve closure.
Leakage of steam through a valve which is badly
steam-cut has a whistling or sonorous sound. If the
valve is only slightly steam-cut, however, leakage is
identified by subdued gurgling or weak popping
sounds. These sounds can often be heard through a
stethoscope.

Tapping, thumping or rattling noises detected


from or near a check valve may indicate disk instability or cavitation. Instability could lead to rapid wear
and possible valve failure. Audible cavitation is also
detrimental. It may produce damage to the valve or the
downstream piping. While the noise symptoms may be
transmitted through the pipe from other equipment,
prompt investigation is required if the check valves
performance is critical to plant reliability.
No specific inspection/preventive maintenance
schedule can be given to cover all check valves. It is
suggested that small valves be sampled by size and
type (there may be hundreds in a large installation).
Schedules for audit of larger valves should consider
the criticality of the valve service. It is wise to open
some critical valves for internal inspection at intervals
even if no suspicious noises are detected.

Where check valves are installed close to pumps,


control valves, pipe fittings or other flow disturbances, they should have more frequent inspection
[see the section of this catalog entitled Adjacent Flow
Disturbances (1.3.1)]. In addition, attention should be
given to valves in installations with significant pipe
vibration.
Users of this guide may wish to consider non-intrusive check valve monitoring methods as a supplement to periodic visual inspection and measurement
of check valve internals. Noise and vibration, acoustic
emission, ultrasonic and radiographic methods have
been studied and demonstrated. EPRI Report No. NP
5479 provides an evaluation of the state of the art, but
users are advised to obtain the most current information available on these emerging technologies.
If problems are found through any of the inspections
discussed above, refer to section J: Maintenance.

Excessive vibration, noise or humming coming from


within a piston-lift check or stop-check valve indicates the possibility that the disk-piston assembly is
wedged inside the body. Such sticking may be caused
by uneven body-guide rib wear on the downstream
side. Sticking rarely occurs with tilting-disk check
valves.

2. Flow Performance
2.1 Choose the Best Valve Size for
Your Service Conditions
The most economical valve is the valve correctly
sized for the service flow conditions. Too small a
valve will have a high pressure drop and will incur
expensive energy costs in service. Too large a valve
wastes money at the time of purchase, and it may
require excessive effort or an excessively large and
expensive actuator for operation.
Piping-system designers sometimes optimize the size
of valves and piping systems to minimize the sum of
investment costs and the present value of pumping
power costs. While this may not be practical for
selection of every valve, it is a goal that should be
kept in mind. This catalog provides information necessary to evaluate the various types and sizes of
Edward valves for stop (isolation), stop-check and
check valve applications.
In the case of stop-check and check valves, another
consideration is that an oversized valve may not open
completely. Obviously, if a valve is not fully open, the
pressure drop will be increased. Also, if the disk
operates too close to the seat, unsteady flow may
cause flutter that may damage valve seats, disks or
guides.

System designers should also address turndown if


service conditions involve a broad range of flow rates
(e.g., high flow in normal operation but low flow during start-up and standby conditions). For these reasons, selection of check valves requires extra steps
and care in calculations.
This section includes equations for the calculation of
pressure drop, required flow coefficient, flow rate or
inlet flow velocity. Procedures are also provided to
check and correct for cavitation and flow choking. The
equations in this section assume that the fluid is a liq-

uid, a gas or steam. Two-component flow (e.g. slurries, oil-gas mixtures) is not covered by the equations. Consult Edward Valves for assistance in evaluating such applications.
Tables in this section contain performance data for all
Edward stop, stop-check and check valves. Flow
coefficients and cavitation/choked-flow coefficients
are given for all fully open Edward valves. In addition,
for check and stop-check valves, the tables provide
minimum pressure drop for full lift, crack-open pressure drop, and a novel sizing parameter that is helpful in selecting the proper valve size for each application.
Caution: Pressure drop, flow rate and check
valve lift estimates provided by Edward calculation methods are best estimate valves.
Calculations are based on standard equations
of the Instrument Society of America (ISA),
flow rate and fluid data provided by the user,
and valve flow coefficients provided by
Edward Valves.
Flow rate and fluid data are often design or
best-estimate values. Actual values may differ
from original estimates. Flow and check valve
lift coefficients are based on laboratory testing. Valves of each specific type are tested,
and results are extended to sizes not tested
using model theory. This approach is fundamentally correct, but there is some uncertainty
because of geometric variations between
valves.
These uncertainties prevent a guarantee with
respect to valve pressure drop, flow rate and
lift performance, but we expect results of calculations using Edward Valves methods to be
at least as accurate as comparable calculations involving flow and pressure drop of
other piping system components.

2.1.1 Pressure Drop, Sizing and Flow


Rate Calculations Fully Open
Valves All Types
This section is divided into two parts. The Basic
Calculations section (2.1) covers most applications
where pressure drops are not excessive. This is generally the case in most Edward valve applications, and
the simple equations in this section are usually sufficient for most problems.
When the pressure drop across a valve is large compared to the inlet pressure, refer to the Corrections
Required with Large Pressure Drops section (2.2).
Various fluid effects must be considered to avoid
errors due to choked flow of steam or gas or flashing or cavitation of liquids. While use of these more
detailed calculations is not usually required, it is recommended that the simple checks in that section
always be made to determine if correction of the
results of the Basic Calculations is necessary. With
experience, these checks can often be made at a
glance.

2.2 Basic Calculations


The following equations apply to FULLY OPEN gate
and globe valves of all types. They also apply to stopcheck and check valves if the flow is sufficient to open
the disk completely. The Check Valve Sizing section
(2.3) must be used to determine if a check valve is
fully open and to make corrections if it is not.
The following simple methods may be used to calculate pressure drop, required flow coefficient, flow rate
or inlet flow velocity for fully open Edward valves in
the majority of applications. Always check Basic
Calculations against the P/p1 criteria in Figure 14 to
see if corrections are required. This check is automatically made when using the Proprietary Valve
Sizing Computer Program available from Edward
Valves.

Note: In preliminary calculations using the following equations, a piping geometry factor, Fp =
1.0, may be used, assuming that the valve size is the same as the nominal pipe size. However, if an
application involves installing a valve in a larger-sized piping system (or piping with a lower pressure
rating than the valve, which will have a larger inside diameter), determine Fp from the Pipe Reducer
Coefficients section when final calculations are made.

Equations and calculations outlined in this manual are available in a proprietary Edward Valves computer program.
Consult your Edward Valves sales representative for more information.

If the resulting pressure drop is higher than desired,

If the pressure drop is lower than necessary for the
application, a smaller and more economical valve
may be tried.

Results of these calculations may be used to select a


valve with a valve flow coefficient that meets the
required flow and pressure-drop criteria. Of course,
valve selection also required prior determination of
the right valve type and pressure class, using other
sections of this catalog. The tabulated CV of the
selected valve should then be used in the appropriate
pressure drop or flow-rate equation to evaluate actual valve performance. At this stage, the checks
described in section 2.2 should be made to correct for
effects of large pressure drops if required.

As discussed below under flow-rate calculations, the


flow-coefficient equations assume that the allowable
pressure drop is available for the valve. Piping pressure drop should be addressed separately.
Caution: In applications of stop-check or
check valves, the results of these equations
will apply only if the valve is fully open.
Always use the methods given in the Check
Valve Sizing section (2.3) to assure that the
valve will be fully open or to make appropriate corrections.

2.3 Corrections Required With Large Pressure Drops


While most Edward valves are used in relatively highpressure systems and are usually sized to produce
low pressure drop at normal flow rates, care is necessary to avoid errors (which may be serious in some
cases) due to flow choking (or near-choking).
Problems arise most often at off-design flow conditions that exist only during plant start-up, shutdown,
or standby operation.
Since steam and gas are compressible fluids, choking (or near-choking) may occur due to fluid expansion which causes the fluid velocity to approach or
reach the speed of sound in reduced-area regions.
While liquids are normally considered to be incompressible fluids, choking may also occur with liquid
flow due to cavitation or flashing. In each case, simple calculations can be made to determine if a problem exists. Relatively simple calculations are
required to correct for these effects. In some cases,
these calculations may require a change in the size of
type of valve required for a specific application.
The flow parameters Ki, FL and xT in the valve data
tables assume that the valve is installed in pipe of the
same nominal size. This is a fairly good assumption
for preliminary calculations, but refer to the Pipe
Reducer Coefficients section if there is a mismatch
between valve and pipe diameters (also see instructions relative to Fp calculations in section 2.1) and
make the appropriate corrections when final calculations are made.

2.3.1 Gas and Steam Flow


2.3.1.1 Pressure Drop To determine if corrections are needed for compressible flow effects, use
the data from the Basic Calculations to determine
the ratio of the calculated pressure drop to the
absolute upstream pressure:
R1 =

P
p1

(5)

If the ratio R1 is less than the values in Figure 14,


the results of the Basic Calculations will usually be
sufficiently accurate, and further calculations are
unnecessary.

for possible flow choking or near-choking.

are not encountered frequently, equations are
presented in terms of weight flow rate (w) and

G26

2.3 Corrections Required With Large Pressure Drops (cont.)


2.3.1.2 Flow Rate When calculating the flow rate
through a valve, the actual pressure drop is known,
but the flow may be reduced by choking or nearchoking.
To check for high pressure-drop effects, calculate R1,
the ratio of pressure drop to absolute upstream pressure (see equation 5 above) noting that the pressure
drop in this case is the known value.
(1) Flow rates determined using the Basic
Calculations are sufficiently accurate if R1 is less that
about twice the value tabulated in Figure 14 for the
applicable valve type (higher because actual pressure
drop is used in the ratio). In this case, no correction
is necessary.
(2) When corrections for higher values of R1 are
required, calculate the gas expansion factor directly
from:
Y= 1 0.467

P/p1 (U.S. or metric)(10)


kxT

( )

(3) The calculation method to determine the flow rate


depends on the calculated value of Y from equation
(10):
If Y is greater than 0.667 (but less that 1), the flow
is not fully choked. Calculate the corrected flow rate
as follows:
wC = Yw

(U.S. or metric)(11)

If Y is equal to or less than 0.667, the valve flow is


choked, and the results of the Basic Calculations are
invalid. The actual flow rate may be calculated from
the equation for wchoked [(8a) or (8b)] above.
Caution: Choked or near-choked flow conditions may produce significant flow-induced
noise and vibration. Prolonged operation
with flow rates in this region may also cause
erosion damage within a valve or in downstream piping, particularly if the flow condi-

tion involve wet steam. Edward valves tolerate these conditions well in services involving limited time periods during plant start-up,
shutdown, etc., but consult Edward Valves
about applications involving long exposure to
such conditions.

2.3.2 Liquid Flow Cavitation


and Flashing
The fluid pressure in high-velocity regions within a
valve may be much lower than either the upstream
pressure of the downstream pressure. If the pressure
within a valve falls below the vapor pressure (pv) of
the liquid, vapor bubbles or cavities may form in the
flow stream. Cavitation, flashing and choking may
occur. Use the equations and procedures in this section to evaluate these phenomena.
Cavitation and flashing are closely related, and they
may be evaluated by calculating a pressure-drop ratio
that is slightly different from that used for gas or
steam:
R1 =

P
(p1pv)

pipe insulation may muffle this sound. This stage of


cavitation is usually related to tiny vapor cavities that
form near the center of vortices in the flow stream,
and it generally produces neither damage nor effects
on flow characteristics. However, as the pressure drop
ratio R2 increases, the noise progresses to a shh,
then a roar.
If R2 > (Ki + FL2)/2, approximately, larger vapor cavities develop and the risk of cavitation damage (pitting) in the valve or downstream pipe may be a concern if this flow condition is sustained for significant
periods of time. Noise may also pose a problem. Still,
at this stage, there is usually no significant effect on
valve flow characteristics. Results of the Basic
Calculations require no correction.
As the pressure-drop ration increases beyond this
point, some valves suffer slight reductions in their CV
values, but there is no practical way of correcting
pressure drop or flow calculations for this effect.
Vibration and noise increase, ultimately sounding like
rocks and gravel bouncing in the pipe at about the
point where flow becomes choked.

(12)

To evaluate a particular valve and application, find


values of Ki and FL from the appropriate valve-data
table, find pV values for common liquids given in
Figure 25, calculate R2, and perform the following
checks:
(1) Cavitation the sudden and sometimes violent
coalescence of the cavities back to the liquid state
occurs when the downstream pressure (within the
valve or in the downstream pipe) recovers to above
the vapor pressure.
If R2 < Ki, there should be no significant cavitation
or effect on flow or pressure drop. Results of the
Basic Calculations require no correction.
If R2 > Ki, cavitation begins. If the ratio is only
slightly greater than Ki, it may be detected as an intermittent ticking noise near the valve outlet, although

2.4 Check Valve Sizing


The most important difference between check (including stop-check) valves and stop valves, from a flow
performance standpoint, is that the check valve disk is
opened only by dynamic forces due to fluid flow. The
preceding calculation methods for flow and pressure
drop are valid only if it can be shown that the valve is
fully open.
The primary purpose of this section is to provide methods to predict check valve disk opening and to make
corrections to pressure-drop calculations if the valve is
not fully open. These methods are particularly applicable to sizing valves for new installations, but they are
also useful for evaluation of performance of existing
valves.
In selecting a stop-check or check valve for a new
installation, the first steps require selecting a proper
type and pressure class. The Stop and Check Valve
Applications Guide section of this catalog should be
reviewed carefully when the type is selected, noting
advantages and disadvantages of each type and considering how they relate to the requirements of the
installation. Other sections of this catalog provide
pressure ratings to permit selection of the required
pressure class.

2.4.1 Sizing Parameter

IF SPFL > SP, the valve is not fully open. A smaller


size valve or another type should be selected if possible to assure full opening. If that is not feasible, three
additional steps are required to evaluate the opening
and pressure drop of the valve under the specified service conditions.
Note: EPRI Report No. NP 5479 (Application
Guideline 2.1) uses a C factor to calculate the
minimum flow velocity required to fully open a
check valve. The sizing procedures in this catalog do not employ the C factor, but values
are given in the valve data tables for readers
who prefer to use the EPRI methods. Since the
EPRI methods are based on velocity, a flow
area is required as a basis. Valve Inlet
Diameters presented in data tables are the
basis for correlation between flow rate and
velocity.

2.4.2 Calculations for


Check Valves Less Than
Fully Open
If the preceding evaluation revealed an incompletely
open check valve, perform the following additional calculations:
Calculate the flow-rate ratio:

The first step in evaluating a stop-check or check valve


application is to determine the Sizing Parameter based
on the system flow rate and fluid properties:

SP =

(U.S. or metric)(16)

Tables in this section provide a Sizing Parameter for


full lift (SpFL) for each Edward stop-check and check
valve. The amount of opening of any check valve and
its effect on pressure drop can be checked simply as
follows:
If SpFL < SP, the valve is fully open. Pressure drop
may be calculated using the equations given previously for fully open valves (including corrections for large
pressure drops if required).

RF =

SP
SPFL

(U.S. or metric)(17)

Calculate the pressure drop:


Again using the RF value calculated above, determine
the pressure drop ratio RP from Figures 16-20, and calculate the valve pressure drop at the partially open
position:
P = RPPFL

(U.S. or metric)(18)

Values for PFL for all stop-check and check valves are
given in Valve Tables 1 to 5 and 10 to 15 with other
coefficients.
Note: The values of the various valve coefficients given in the tabulations are based on
testing of a substantial number of valves. Most
are applicable to any line fluid, but those
involving check valve lift are influenced by
buoyancy. Tabulated values are based on reference test conditions with room-temperature
water. SPFL and PFL are slightly higher in
applications involving lower-density line fluids. Considering the expected accuracy of
these calculations, the following corrections
may be considered:
For water at any temperature and other common liquids No correction required.
For steam, air and other common gases at
normal operating pressures and temperatures Increase SPFL by 7% and increase
PFL by 14%.

Determine the disk operating position:


Using the RF value calculated above, determine the
valve operating position from Figure 16 (forged-steel
valves) or Figures 17-20 (cast-steel valves).
Performance curve numbers for individual cast-steel
stop-check and check valves are given in the tabulations with other coefficients. Evaluate the acceptability
of the operating position based on recommendations
in the Check Valve Applications Guide and in the specific sizing guidelines below.

2.4.3 Sizing Guidelines


Considering the recommendations in the Check Valve
Applications Guide section of this catalog and the calculation methods described above, the following specific steps are recommended for sizing check valves for
optimum performance and service life (it is assumed
that the check valve type and pressure class have
already been selected before starting this procedure):

(1) Constant flow rate If the application involves


a substantially constant flow rate during all operating
conditions, the check valve should be sized to be fully
open. This may be accomplished by the following procedure:
Calculate the check valve sizing parameter (SP) for
the application from equation (15). Values of density
for water, steam, and air are available in Figures
22-24.
If the flow rate is not given in lb/hr (or kg/hr), refer to
the Conversion of Measurement Units section of this
catalog to make the necessary calculation.
Select the valve size with the next smaller SPFL value
from valve data tables (Tables 1-5 for forged-steel
valves and Tables 10-15 for cast-steel valves). Make
note of the CV, PCO, PFL, Ki, FL and xT values for use
in later calculations.
Note: Preferably, there should be a good margin between SP and SPFL to be sure the valve
will be fully open. In the specific case of tiltingdisk check valves, it is recommended that SPFL
be less than 0.83 (SP) to be sure that the disk
is fully loaded against its stop (particularly if it
is close to a flow disturbance).
Calculate the pressure drop using the Basic
Calculation method in equation (1) and the Cxx value
of the valve size selected above. Make the simple
checks described above in section 2.2 (Corrections
Required With Large Pressure Drops), and make
appropriate corrections in necessary (this is rarely
needed for a valve sized for constant flow rate, but the
check is desirable).
Evaluate the pressure drop. If it is too high, a larger
size or another check valve type should be tried. If it is
lower than necessary for the application, a smaller and
more economical valve (with a lower SPFL) may be
evaluated with assurance that it would also be fully
open.

G28

2.4 Check Valve Sizing


Evaluate the crack-open pressure drop (PCO) to be
certain that the system head available at the initiation of
flow will initiate valve opening. Note that, for some
valves, the crack-open pressure drop exceeds the pressure drop for full lift. Preceding calculations might
indicate no problem, but it is possible that a valve
might not open at all in a low-head application (e.g.,
gravity flow).
(2) Variable flow rate If the application involves
check valve operation over a range of flow rates, additional calculations are necessary to assure satisfactory, stable performance at the lowest flow rate without
causing excessive pressure drop at the maximum
flow condition. This required careful evaluation of
specific system operating conditions (e.g., are the
minimum and maximum flow rates normal operating
conditions or infrequent conditions that occur only
during start-up or emergency conditions?).
The following options should be considered in
selecting the best stop-check or check valve size for
variable flow applications:
The best method, if practical, is to size the valve to
be fully open at the minimum flow condition. This
may be done by following the first two steps listed
above for the constant flow-rate case, but using the
minimum flow rate in the sizing parameter (SP) calculation.

The only difference is that the pressure-drop calculations and evaluations in the third and fourth steps
must be repeated at normal and maximum flow rates.
If the selected valve size is fully open at the minimum
flow rate and has an acceptable pressure drop at the
maximum flow condition, it should give good overall
performance.
Sometimes a change in valve type provides the best
cost-effective solution for variable-flow applications
(e.g. use a smaller Flite-Flow stop-check or check
valve instead of a 90-bonnet type to provide full lift
at the minimum flow condition, but a high CV for low
pressure drop at maximum flow).

Operation at less than full lift may have to be considered.


(3) Operation at less than full lift High
Turndown applications sometimes exist on boilers
and other process systems that must swing through
periodic flow changes from start-up, to standby, to
maximum, and back again. In such cases, calculations may not reveal any single valve that will offer a
satisfactory compromise assuring full lift and an
acceptable pressure drop at both minimum and maximum flow conditions.
It may be acceptable to permit a check valve to operate at less than fully open at the minimum flow condition if such operation is infrequent or not expected
to be sustained continuously for long periods. A valve
may be sized by following the methods above using
the lowest expected normal sustained flow rate in the
sizing parameter (SP) calculation. Pressure drop at
normal and maximum flow rates should then be calculated and evaluated.
The acceptability of valve operation at the minimum
flow condition should be evaluated as follows:
Calculate the sizing parameter (SP) at the minimum
flow rate and the flow-rate ratio RF from equation (17).
The valve operating position (% open) should be
determined from the proper performance curve
(Figures 16-20).

(4) Alternatives for high turndown applications If the preceding steps show that the range of
flow rates is too large for any single standard check
valve, consult Edward Valves. Several alternatives
may be considered:
Either 90-bonnet or angle-type stop-check or piston-lift check valves may be furnished with a special
disk with an extended skirt as illustrated in Figure
15A. This skirt increases flow resistance at low flow
rates, producing additional lifting force to help prevent operation at small openings.
Of course, the skirt also reduces the CV of the valve
somewhat when it is fully open and increases pressure drop at maximum flow. Nevertheless, a special
disk sometimes solves difficult high turndown problems. A special disk also permits solution of some
problems with existing valves that are oversized.
A stop-check valve may be used with the stem lifted just enough to provide a positive stop for the disk
at very low flows (e.g., short-term start-up conditions). The stem should be lifted with increasing flow
rate to maintain the disk-stopping action while preventing excessive pressure drop. At normal flow
rates, the stem can be lifted to its fully open position,
permitting normal check valve function. The stem

Caution: Check valve operation at less than


25% opening is not recommended. Any
check valve that operates for sustained periods at partial openings should be monitored
or inspected periodically for evidence of
instability or wear.
If the minimum operating position is considered
satisfactory, the pressure drop at the minimum flow
condition may be calculated from equation (18),
using the pressure-drop ratio (Rp) determined from
the proper performance curve.

may be actuated manually for infrequent start-up


operations, or a motor actuator may be furnished for
convenience if large flow rate variations are expected
to be frequent.
Caution: This arrangement could produce
cavitation or flow-choking problems if the
flow rate is increased substantially without
lifting the valve stem to compensate.
A small check or stop-check valve may be installed
in parallel with a larger stop-check valve. The smaller valve may be sized for the minimum flow condition,
and the larger stop-check may be held closed with the
stem until the flow is sufficient to assure adequate lift.
If necessary, the stem on the larger valve may be
opened gradually with increasing flow to maintain
disk-stopping action as in the example above. The
smaller valve may be allowed to remain open at higher flow rates or, if a stop-check type is used, it may be
closed if preferred. Either or both valves may be manually actuated or furnished with a motor actuator for
convenience.

2.5 Pipe Reducer Coefficients


The equations in the Flow Performance section of this
catalog use a piping geometry factor, Fp, to account
for the effect of pipe reducers attached directly to the
valve. This permits the valve and pipe reducers to be
treated as an assembly, i.e., FpCV is the flow coefficient of the valve/pipe reducer combination. Then, the
pressure drop in the flow equations is the pressure
drop of the assembly.
This method is also applicable when valves are furnished with oversized ends to fit larger diameter pipe.
It should also be used to evaluate line-size valves
used in pipe with a lower pressure rating than the
valve, because such pipe may have less wall thickness and a larger inside diameter than the valve inlet
diameter given in the valve data tabulations.

This section provides equations for calculation of the


piping geometry factor, Fp, which should be used
even in Basic Calculations when there is a significant
difference between the pipe diameter and valve inlet
diameter (d).

2.5.1 Pipe Geometry Factor

2.5.2 Other Coefficients

In addition, other coefficients (K1, FL, xT) are affected by the presence of pipe reducers. Equations are
also provided for correction of these terms, which are
required only when evaluating significant valve-topipe diameter mismatch.
Note: These equations apply only where the
valve diameter is less than the connecting
pipe diameter.

Because the relation between density, pressure and


temperature does not always behave in an ideal way
(i.e., ideally, density is proportional to pressure
divided by temperature, in absolute units), use of the
above relation requires that the pressure and temperature of interest be specified. This means that the
specific gravity of a gas as defined may vary with
pressure and temperature (due to
compressibility effects).
Frequently, specific gravity is defined using:
Gg =

molecular weight of gas


Mw

If this relation is used to calculate density, one must


be careful to consider compressibility effects.
When the pressure and temperature of interest are at
or near standard conditions (14.73 psia, 60F) or
normal conditions (1.0135 bar abs, 0C),
specific gravities calculated from either of the above
relations are essentially equal.

3. Edward Valve Design Standards and Features


Engineering and research efforts both analytical and
experimental have contributed to innovative leadership by Edward Valves through the introduction or
practical development of some major industrial valving features:
Integral hardfaced seats in globe and angle valves
to permit compact valve designs and to resist erosion
and wear.
Impactor handwheels and handles to permit tight
shutoff of manually operated globe and angle valves.
Body-guided globe and angle valve disks to minimize wear and ensure alignment with seats for tight
sealing.
Inclined-bonnet globe valves with streamlined flow
passages to minimize pressure drop due to flow.
Equalizers for large check and stop-check valves to
ensure full lift at moderate flow rates and to prevent
damage due to instability.
Compact pressure-seal bonnet joints to eliminate
massive bolted flanges on large, high-pressure
valves:
First with wedge-shaped metal gaskets with
soft coatings, optimized over more than four
decades to provide tight sealing in most services.

Now, for the severest services, with composite gaskets using flexible graphite and
special anti-extrusion rings to assure tight
sealing, even with severe temperature transients overcomes need for field re-tightening and eases disassembly for maintenance.
Optimized stem-packing chambers and packingmaterial combinations to ensure tight stem sealing:
First with asbestos-based materials and
then with asbestos-free materials.

Hermetically sealed globe valves with seal-welded


diaphragm stem seals to prevent stem leakage in critical applications, including nuclear.
Gate valves with flexible double-wedge construction to ensure tight sealing at both low and high pressures and to prevent sticking difficulties when opening.
Qualified stored-energy actuators for quick-closing
valves in safety-related nuclear-plant applications
and qualified valve-actuator combinations that are
used in main-steam isolation service throughout the
world.
Edward valve expertise, acquired over more than 85
years, is shared with national and international
codes-and-standards committees and other technical
societies and groups whose activities influence
industrial valves. This cooperation has included participation in the development of every issue of
ASME/ANSI B16.34 as well as most issues of
ASME/ANSI B16.5 (Pipe Flanges and Flanged
Fittings), which applied to steel valves before
ASME/ANSI B16.34 was first issued in 1973. Edward
Valves representatives have also been active in preparation of ISO (International Standards Organization)
standards. In addition, Edward representatives have
participated where appropriate with trade organizations such as EPRI, INPO and various nuclear powerplant owners groups in addressing valve issues.

3.1 Codes and Standards


Edward valves are designed, rated, manufactured and
tested in accordance with the following standards
where applicable:
ASME B16.34-1996 Valves: flanged, threaded
and welding end.
ASME/ANSI B16.10-1992 Face-to-face and endto-end dimensions of valves.

ASME B16.11 Forged Fittings, Socket-welding


and Threaded.
ASME Boiler and Pressure-Vessel Code
Applicable sections including Nuclear Section III.
ASME and ASTM Material Specifications
Applicable sections.
MSS Standard Practices Where appropriate:
Edward sealability acceptance criteria are equal to or
better than those in MSS SP-61.
Users should note that ASME/ANSI B16.34-1996 has
a much broader scope than the previous editions.
While this standard previously covered only flangedend and butt welding-end valves, the 1988 edition
covered socket welding-end and threaded-end valves
as well. With this revision, the standard now addresses practically all types, materials and end configurations of valves commonly used in pressure-piping
systems. All Edward valves in this catalog with a listed class number (e.g. Class 1500) comply with
ASME B16.34.
In addition to the standards listed, special requirements such as those of API and NACE are considered
on application.

3.2 Pressure Ratings


Edward valve-pressure ratings are tabulated in pressure-versus-temperature format. The temperatures
range from -20F (-29C) to the maximum temperature permitted for each specific design and pressureboundary material. Typically, pressure ratings
decrease with increasing temperature, approximately
in proportion to decreases in material strength.

Standard Class (Ref: Paragraph 2.1.1 of ASME


B16.34-1996) These lowest ratings apply to all
flanged-end valves as well as any threaded-end or
welding-end valves that do not meet the requirements
for other classes. Typically, ratings for these valves
are consistent with ratings listed for flanges and
flanged fittings of similar materials in ASME/ANSI
B16.5-1988.
Special Class (Ref: Paragraph 2.1.2 of ASME
B16.34-1996) These ratings apply to threaded-end
or welding-end valves which meet all requirements
for a Standard Class rating and in addition meet special nondestructive examination (NDE) requirements.
Valve bodies and bonnets are examined by volumetric and surface examination methods and upgraded
as required. Pressure ratings for Special Class valves
are higher than those for Standard Class valves (particularly at elevated temperatures) because of the
improved assurance of soundness of pressure
boundaries and because they are not subject to the
limitations of flanged and gasketed end joints.
Limited Class (Ref: Paragraph 2.1.3 of ASME
B16.34-1996) These ratings apply only to threaded-end or welding-end valves in sizes 2-1/2 and
smaller, with generally cylindrical, internal-wetted
pressure boundaries. Limited Class valves meet all
requirements for Standard Class valves, and body
designs must also satisfy special reinforcement rules
to compensate for irregularities in shape. Typically,
the regions of minimum wall thickness in these
valves are very localized, so minor plasticity in such
regions at high temperature will not adversely affect
valve geometry. Pressure ratings for Limited Class
valves are the same as those for Special Class valves
at lower temperatures, but Limited Class ratings are
higher at very high temperatures [above 900F
(482C) for ferritic steels and above 1050 (565C)
for austenitic steels].

Valves in this catalog with a listed class number are


rated in accordance with ASME B16.34-1996. This
standard establishes allowable working pressure ratings for each class number and material. These ratings also vary with class definitions as described
below.

3. Edward Valve Design Standards and Features (cont.)


It should be understood that flanged-end valves can
be supplied only as Standard Class valves with
numerically even pressure-class designations (300,
600, 900, 1500, 2500), for consistency with mating
flanges in piping systems. Threaded-end or weldingend valves can be supplied with the same designations or as Class 4500 (for which there is no standard
for flanged-end connections). In addition, threadedend or welding-end valves can be furnished with
intermediate ratings or class designations (ref: paragraph 2.1.4 of ASME B16.34-1996), up to Class
2500 for threaded ends and up to Class 4500 for
welding-ends. For example, Class 2680 welding-end
Univalves can be applied in superheater-drain applications that could not be satisfied with a Class 2500
valve rating.
Series or CWP
A few valves in this catalog with Series or CWP
designations are designed, rated, manufactured and
tested to Edward proprietary standards. These valve
designs, qualified by decades of successful field performance, will provide safe and reliable service in
applications where an ASME/ANSI rating is not
required by a piping code or other specifications.
These valve designs and ratings are generally, but not
completely, in conformance with recognized national
standards (e.g., some employ high-strength materials not listed in standards). These valves have a history of excellent performance and safety, and they
may be applied with confidence in applications where
ASME/ANSI ratings are not required.

Notes:
1. While Edward cast-steel valves described
in this catalog have even listed ratings (e.g.,
1500), many designs provide more wall
thickness than required in critical areas.
Accordingly, welding-end valves can often be
offered with intermediate ratings (ref:
Paragraph 6.1.4 of ASME B16.34-1996)
moderately higher than the nominal class ratings. With appropriate revisions to testing
procedures, this can allow somewhat higher
pressure ratings than those listed in the tab-

ulations. Consult Edward Valves and provide


information on specific required design pressure and temperature conditions.

3.3 Pressure-Seal Construction

2. Pressure ratings for carbon steel (A105


and A216 WCB) valves are tabulated for temperatures through 1000F (538C), which is
consistent with ASME B16.34-1996. As
noted in that standard, these materials are
permissible but not recommended for prolonged usage at above about 800F (427C).
This precaution is related to the possibility
that carbides in carbon steel may be converted to graphite.
3. Other codes or standards applicable to
piping systems may be more restrictive than
ASME B16.34-1996 in limiting allowable
pressures for valves. For example, ASME
B31.1-1995 (Power Piping) does not permit
use of carbon steel (A105 and A216 WCB) at
design temperatures above 800F (427C).
Users must consider all codes or regulations
applicable to their systems in selecting
Edward valves.

The time-proven Edward pressure-seal bonnet seals


more effectively as pressure increases, because the
pressure forces the sealing elements into closer contact. Metal pressure-seal gaskets with soft plating
employ optimum contact angles and materials for
each applicable valve type, size and pressure-class
rating. The gaskets yield initially under bolting load
and then under pressure, to provide excellent sealing
contact.

Composite Pressure Seal Construction

4. The maximum tabulated temperatures at


which pressure ratings are given for Edward
valves are in some cases less than the maximum temperatures given in ASME B16.341996 for valves of the same material. The
maximum tabulated temperatures in this catalog may reflect limitations of materials used
for other valve parts (e.g., stems). Use of
Edward valves at temperatures above the
maximum tabulated values may result in
degradation and is not recommended.

Newest designs for highest pressure/temperature


services employ improved composite pressure-seal
gaskets with flexible graphite rings. Edward leadership in proof-testing of flexible graphite stem packings clearly showed the superior sealing characteristics of this material, and continued research led to the
development of a test-proven bonnet closure that
provides highest sealing integrity. The composite
pressure-seal provides excellent sealing at low and
high pressures, even under severe pressure/temperature transients. It provides easier disassembly for
maintenance, seals over minor scratches and does
not depend on re-tightening under pressure after reassembly.

3. Edward Valve Design Standards and Features (cont.)


3.4 Hardfacing
Integrity of seating surfaces on bodies, wedges and
disks in gate, globe, and check valves is essential for
tight shutoff. Valve body seats must be hardfaced, and
wedges and disks must either be hardfaced or made
from an equivalent base material.
The standard seating material for most Edward valves
is cobalt-based Stellite 21, which has excellent
mechanical properties and an exceptional performance history. As compared to Stellite 6, which
was used in many early Edward valves and is still
used in many competitive valves, Stellite 21 is
more ductile and impact resistant. These properties
provide superior resistance to cracking of valve seating surfaces in service.
Stellite 21 is used either as a complete part made
from a casting (as in Univalve disks and small
Equiwedge gate valve wedges) or as a welded hardsurfacing deposit. Depending on valve size and type,
hardsurfacing material is applied by a process that
assures highest integrity (PTA, MIG, etc.).
While the as-deposited (or as-cast) hardness of
Stellite 21 is somewhat lower than that of Stellite 6,
Stellite 21 has a work-hardening coefficient that is
five times that of Stellite 6. This provides essentially
equivalent hardness after machining, grinding, and
exposure to initial seating stresses. In addition, low
friction coefficients attainable with Stellite 21 provide
valuable margins in assuring valve operation with
reasonable effort or actuator sizing.

Some Edward valves have used solid disks made of


hardened ASTM A-565 Grade 616 or MSI 615 stainless steel. This corrosion-resistant alloy has been
proven in seating and erosion tests and in service.
This material can be furnished in certain valves for
nuclear-plant services where reduced cobalt is desirable. Similar iron-base trim materials are used in
production of certain standard valves. Extensive
research on other cobalt-free valve trim materials has
also identified other alloys which provide good performance under many service conditions. Consult
Edward Valves about any special trim requirements.

3.5 Valve-Stem Packing


Stem sealing is an extremely important valve performance feature, since seal leakage can represent energy loss, a loss of product and a potential environmental or safety hazard. Consequently, Edward stop
and stop-check valves employ stem packings that
have been qualified by extensive testing.
The search for improved sealing performance was a
primary reason for seeking out new stem-packing
materials to replace asbestos-based packings. The
demand of many valve users to discontinue use of
asbestos due to health risks was an important secondary reason. Since there are no simple laboratory
tests that will predict sealing performance based on
measurable properties of packing materials, hundreds
of tests have been necessary with various packings in
valves or valve mockups.
Some packings required frequent adjustments due to
wear, extrusion or breakdown, and some could not be
made to seal at all after relatively brief testing. All
standard Edward stop and stop-check valves now
employ flexible graphite packing which provides
excellent stem sealing. However, the key to its success involves retaining the graphitic material with
special, braided end rings to prevent extrusion.
Various end rings are used, depending on the valve
pressure class and expected service-temperature
range. All Edward valves assembled since January
1986 have been asbestos-free.
See V-REP 86-2 for more information.

The properties of Stellite 21 also provide an advantage to the user long after a valve leaves the Edward
plant. If a large valve seat is severely damaged in a
localized area, as may occur due to closing on foreign
objects, the seat may be repaired locally and refinished, in such cases, where a valve cannot be adequately preheated before welding, a Stellite 6 seat
may crack during the repair process requiring either
removal of the valve from the line or in situ removal
replacement of the complete seat.

THERE IS NO EQUAL.

STAYING ON-LINE
WITH EDWARD VALVES
We design and manufacture all our
valves for 40 years life in the field. That
means not just building a reliable
product, but one that is easy to
maintain and service. It also means
providing a team of experienced,
dedicated professionals to keep your
Edward valves operating at peak
performance.
Highly Experienced Technicians
Edward brings unmatched experience
to the field. Our service technicians
have an average 20 years in the
industry, and 15 years with Edward.
Each has special skills, such as
welding and machining, that we can
target for the needs of the individual
job.
Comprehensive Record-Keeping
Our files include original specifications
for every Edward valve sold since
1908. All valves are coded for easy
identification. On new and replacement
orders, Edward stands ready to

provide the complete lot-traceability


required for nuclear and other critical
services.
In-Line Service
We are dedicated to on-site service
whenever possible. To this end, we not
only provide highly experienced, expert
personnel we also support those
technicians with field equipment,
including portable boring, lapping,
welding, and weld-cutting machines.
Major parts, such as disks or bonnets,
can be air-shipped back to the factory
for service, and repaired while service
personnel perform other tasks.
Parts Replacement
Our comprehensive record-keeping
system also facilitates replacement of
parts.
Our computer database can quickly tell
us if we have the part in stock or on
order, or how we can best coordinate
raw materials and factory resources for
the quickest possible turn-around time.

New one year Warranty


On all valves repaired to Edwards
standards, we will issue a new oneyear warranty, identical to the warranty
issued for new valves.
Factory Repair & Upgrading
Our After Hours Coverage Team
(AHCT) specialists are on call around
the clock, seven days a week, to
deliver on our commitment to provide
immediate response to our customers
requirements. Whether your requirements are for a planned outage,
preventive maintenance or an
emergency demand, Edward will
remanufacture or upgrade valves to the
original or most current specification.
Our in-house engineering and quality
assurance support is committed to meet
the required turn-around time.
Planned & Emergency Outages
Our service managers will coordinate
scheduled maintenance, and also get
technical assistance to your facility
quickly for emergency needs.
