SchuF Control Valves
Control valves work to keep a process variable such as
flow or pressure within a predefined operating range.
They are often the last piece of equipment in a process
loop that can compensate a load disturbance and are
therefore considered critical valves.

Why choose SchuF?

The SchuF Group is an industry-renowned valve supplier with
over 100 years´experience designing and manufacturing
application-specific valve solutions.

SchuF has developed over 20,000 control valve

variations in its hundred-year history. Each has
its own specific characteristics tailored to
the process control elements that are
most important for it – pressure, level,
flow or temperature.

SchuF has the capability to ship our

unique and highly-praised valve
solutions worldwide from production
facilities located in Germany, India,
Ireland, Italy, the United Kingdom and the
United States.

SchuF has an extensive product selection with

a vast and diverse range of applications, from oil
production to concrete manufacture. SchuF´s
skilled team of engineers and product specialists
design each valve from the ground up to meet specific
application requirements and provide optimal service
life and performance.

Where does SchuF use its expertise?

■ Discharge and feed flow-control valve ■ High-precision multi-port flow control of highly
in PET, PVC, PP & PE reactors viscous, non linear, non-Newtonian polymer fluids

■ Level, pressure & steam injection control ■ Discharge flow control valves for urea reactors

Straight Globe Valve – Type 72

Straight Globe control valves combine the protection of a
bellows seal with the controllability and leak-tightness of a SchuF
control valve. They are used in arduous and lethal services with
critical media such as chlorine, phosgene, hydrofluoric acid, NH3,
CO2 , urea etc. They are Eurochlor compliant.

 Designed for at least 20.000 operations

 Emergency stuffing boxes as standard
 Linear, equal % or on/off control
 Optional bellows fitted in bonnet to protect against erosion
 Wide variety of control trims available (see page 8-10)
 Loose self-aligning disc for absolute shut-off, (ASME Class VI)
 Metallic sealing surfaces with different hardness (Stellite®…)

Y - Globe Valve – Type 50

The Y-globe control valve can be installed in process lines
from 1 inch to 24 inches and is ideal to control flow or to
reduce pressure. It has a sturdy design, superior flow and
control characteristics (compared to globe or ball control
valves) and zero-leakage sealing performance.

 High throughput (e.g. 4” (DN 100) –

Cv min 140 to max 300)
 Flow optimized – low pressure drop
 Equal %, linear or custom control characteristics
 Class VI process shut-off and zero leakage to
atmosphere performance
 Dead-and slow-space-free options

Wafer Valve – Type 76

Ideal for limited-space control applications

 Space-saving design
 Cost-optimised
 Linear or equal %
 ½ inch to 3 inch
 Up to ASME 2500#

In line Control Valves

V-notch Ball Valve

By choosing the SchuF line of characterized
V-Control ball valves, a full range of control
applications is available with superior flow control.
These quarter-turn-control ball valves are more compact,
lighter weight and much less expensive than comparably
sized globe valves and segmented control valves currently
available in the market.

 Superior rangeabilty and repeatability

 High flow capacity
 Ability to function with fluids containing solids and fibers
 Ease of maintenance
 Exceptional interface with PLCs and computer command
signals
 SchuF high-quality pneumatic and electric control
actuators
 Accurate positioning

Segmented Ball Valve

The SchuF Segmented Ball Valve offers an
accurate control with a clogging free design.
High capacity and superior sealing properties
make this valve type a perfect In-Line valve
for control purposes, even with high solid
content mediums.

 Superior rangeabilty and repeatability

 High flow capacity
 Ability to function with fluids containing solids and
fibers
 Flow optimized – low pressure drop
 Erosive medium control
 Ease of maintenance and seal replacement
 Accurate positioning

Control Valve Types

Angle Control Valves – Model 74

The SchuF Model 74 Angle Control Valve is designed for critical or

severe applications involving level control and pressure let-down in
High Pressure Acid Leach (HPAL), Hydrocracking, Coal Liquefaction,
PTA and other demanding processes.

The SchuF Angle Control Valve is often custom-made to suit process

requirements in order to optimise field performance. Valve bodies
are designed to help extend service life, by preventing impingement
of particles on internal surfaces. Stagnant areas are minimized to
prevent build-up of slurry or scale.

X-Flash – Type 74BS

These valves open into the downstream vessel to eliminate choking
and cavitation. The “accelerating body” design prevents in-body
flashing.

 High CV values (1 to 3000)

 Low wear and tear
 Disc opening eliminates plugging by sediments
 Best suited for vessel installation

Tough Flash – Type 74CS

If piping considerations prohibit a disc-opening
valve, the 74CS accomodates flashing in the valve
while opening the disc into the body. The effects of
cavitation are minimised by the use of suitable trims.

 Hard material trim

 Flashing occurs in the protected seat / choke
tube area
 Up to 180 bar let-down is possible in a single
stage
 Customised and replaceable choke tube
 Suitable for pipeline or vessel installation

Trim Types and Standard Materials
Standard Control Trim Types
● Linear
Linear flow characteristics are those where, for example, a 1%
change of the total valve stroke will result in a flow rate change of
1% of the total flow. This ensures that, for a constant pressure
drop, the valve gain is more or less constant at all flows. Linear
characteristics are suitable for most straightforward applications.

● Equal Percentage
Equal Percentage flow characteristics are commonly used where
pressure differential across the valve goes down as the flow rate
Increases, and are ideal for more complex process control. Equal Curve Types
percentage valves open progressively more area as the valve is ● Linear ● Equal Percentage
stroked open, so, for example, every 10% increase in stroke ● Quick Opening ● SchuF x3
would result in a fixed percentage increase in the flow
rate prior to adjustment- all across the stroke range.

● Quick Opening
Quick-Opening flow characteristics, as implied
by the title, allow maximum changes in flow rate
following small initial changes in valve stroke. As
the valve travel approaches the fully open posit-
ion, valve flow-rate changes approach zero. This
characteristic is commonly used for on-off service.

● SchuF x³ Bell Curve

SchuF’s patented x³ bell curve is available as an
alternative to the above characteristics. The hybrid
qualities of the x³ bell curve offer considerably
improved controllability of the process.

Special Trim Types

Stacker
By forcing the process through a series of
sharp turns and splitting channels, the
exit velocity is reduced to a less aggressive
level. Specially designed scrapers prevent
solids building up and reduce the need for
servicing and production downtime:

• Greatly reducing wear

• Noise and vibration reduction
• Up to six stages available

Multi Stage
Ideal to let down high pressure over several
stages and avoid cavitation:

• 2, 3 or up to 6 staged pressure - reduction

disc design
• Up to ASME 2500# as standard
• True Equal % characteristics
• High CV values (1 to 3000)
• Large outlet chamber to reduce velocities
• Disc opening direction eliminates plugging by
catalyst fines or other sediments
