'C' Series control valves

Cage design control valves for industry

One valve
The 'C' series is a cage design valve that conforms to the requirements laid down by ANSI B 16.34 and ASME VIII. At its heart is a cage guided balanced piston providing: Excellent control of the process over high differential pressures. Quick and easy maintenance. The modular design of the valve provides flexibility, which means that many control solutions may be achieved from a single valve envelope.
Single spring actuation with different ratings for signal and process matching.

Field reversible 'spring extend' to 'spring retract' control action. A range of actuator sizes to provide high closing forces.

Standard copper piping, with stainless steel option on actuator and accessories.

Valve sizes from 1" to 8" (DN25 to 200). Valve body manufactured in carbon steel, alloy steel or stainless steel providing many application possibilities. Valve body pressure ratings in accordance with ANSI 300 and ANSI 600.

Industry standard connections include: Flanged ANSI or DIN with the option of RF (raised face) or RTJ (ring type joints). Socket weld in sizes 1" to 2" (DN25 to DN50). Butt weld in sizes 2" to 8" (DN50 to DN200).

Valve plug closure to ANSI class IV, V and VI. 2

1. Wiper rings - help prevent

damage to stem seals caused by the build up of particles, extending the seal life and reducing valve maintenance.

Design detail makes all the difference

The 'C' series range of control valves has benefited from over 50 years of valve design, manufacture and application expertise. This accumulated knowledge has been distilled into every detail of the valve and actuator design. The outcome of this approach is a modern, high performance, valve and actuator combination that is ideally suited to the needs of todays industry.

2. A unique serial number is

allocated to every valve for full traceability worldwide.

3. High quality finish to the valve

stem and cage, provides excellent sealing and long life performance of the stem seals and plug sealing rings.

4. Cage retained internals

provide quick and easy maintenance, without the need to remove the valve from the pipeline.

5. The trim design ensures

low mechanical noise. One, two and three stage cage design solutions for reducing cavitation and aerodynamic noise problems.

6. The balanced plug has a

standard, energised, PTFE sealing ring with the option of precision cut graphite rings for high temperature applications, ensuring high performance sealing and stability of plug position. 4

7. Field reversible spring

extend to spring retract (or vice versa) without the need for special tools.

8. Springs can be replaced

without opening the diaphragm chamber, minimising maintenance downtime.

by the actuator, preventing over-stressing of the valve stem.

10. Single spring actuation

for easier spring adjustment and repeatability of actuation.

11. The actuator is internally

treated to protect against atmospheric corrosion.

12. Anti-rotation device to

help prevent damage to the valve seat, bellows and diaphragm.

The integrated system shown is one example of the many solutions Spirax Sarco provide to today's industry. Here, gas turbines are used to drive alternators for the production of electricity. Hot exhaust from the gas turbine is used to produce steam and superheated steam. The superheated steam drives a turbine for plant compressed air production. Saturated steam is used for heating, cooling and hot water for process production. Level, pressure, flow, speed and temperature controls all feature in the plant. 1 Boiler 2 Gas turbine 3 Steam turbine 4 Absorption chiller 5 Deaerator 6 Condensate tank 7 Cooling tower 8 Gas compressor 9 Feedwater pump

How to specify the 'C' series valve and actuator

Control valves shall be Spirax Sarco 'C' series with steel bodies, cage design and ANSI 300 or ANSI 600 flanged connections. They must be two port single seat, available with varying flow characteristics and stainless steel internals. They shall be coupled to a PN1000 single spring pneumatic actuator offering on-site conversion from fail-close to fail-open, plus an SP2 intelligent positioner and MPC2 filter / regulator set.

Spirax Sarco customer care policy

Each 'C' series valve and actuator combination is given a unique serial number against which all customer data i.e., application, valve and actuator information is stored. 11
