Principle of operation
The medium flows through the valve in the direction indicated
by the arrow. The valve plug determines the cross-sectional
area of flow. The version with bellows seal (Fig. 3) is fitted
with a test connection to monitor the stainless steel bellows.
The valves can be equipped with a flow divider (u T 8081)
for noise reduction.
Pressure balancing must be used when high pressures or dif-
ferential pressures act on the plug (Fig. 4).
Fail-safe position
Depending on how the springs are arranged in the pneumatic
actuator (see Data Sheets u T 8310-1, u T 8310-2 and
u T 8310‑3), the valve has two different fail-safe positions Fig. 3: Type 3256 Valve with bellows seal and flow divider ST 1
effective upon air supply failure.
– Actuator stem extends (fail-close)
The valve closes when the supply air fails.
– Actuator stem retracts (fail-open)
The valve opens when the supply air fails.
Differential pressures
The permissible differential pressures can be found in the In-
formation Sheet u T 8000‑4.
Note: Fig. 2 to Fig. 5 show configuration examples.
