CASH VALVES CRYOGENIC VALVES AND CONTROLS

A broad range of pressure build regulators, pressure reducing valves, final line gas valves and combination
pressure build economizer valves for cryogenic service.

FEATURES

• Six models for pressure reducing or pressure


build-up service.
• Five models for back-pressure service on
economizer circuit.
• Three models for combined pressure building
and economizer functions.
• Low temperature cut-off valves.
• Two models for final line gas service.
• High purity regulating valves for pressure
reducing, back pressure and differential
services.
• All parts commercially cleaned for
cryogenic/oxygen service or high purity gas
compatibility.
• Complementary ‘Y’ pattern strainers reduce
maintenance costs.
• Cryogenic safety and shut-off valves also
available.

OVERVIEW

Cryogenics - the science of materials at extremely low temperatures - has become increasingly
important to industry. One important aspect of this field is the liquification of normally gaseous
elements which are used widely throughout the industry, including:

Oxygen - used extensively in BOF furnaces in the steel industry, for metal cutting, as
a rocket fuel and in medicine.
Acetylene - widely used in welding.
Nitrogen - used in refrigeration systems, for metal degassing, in aerosol packaging
and in cryogenic surgery.
Hydrogen - used as a rocket propellant and in the production of several metals.
Argon - widely used in incandescent lamps and fluorescent tubes.
Helium - used for arc welding, in the manufacture of electron tubes and in
cryogenic research.
Carbon Dioxide - used in refrigeration, to make aerosol tanks and in fire fighting.
Other cryogenic fluids include liquefied natural gas, fluorine, krypton, neon, methane and ethane.

The extensive range of Cash valves and controls is suitable for use in all the major areas of
cryogenic converters, or ‘dewars’, which are either stationary or installed in over-the-road
transport vehicles.

CASH VALVES CRYOGENIC VALVES AND CONTROLS

THE PRESSURE BUILD-UP CIRCUIT

The build-up circuit in the converter maintains a pressure of approximately 25 psi (1.76 kg/cm2)
above that required to drive the liquid to the final vaporizer and a pressure differential of
approximately 25 psi (1.76 kg/cm2) or higher across the service line regulator. To do this, liquid is
drawn into the pressure build-up coil, where it is warmed by ambient air and vaporized. The gas
then passes through the pressure build-up regulator and into the top of the tank, where it begins
to build up pressure because expansion is limited by the fixed volume.
When this pressure reaches the pressure build-up regulator’s set point, the regulator cuts off,
stopping vaporization and pressure build-up. As liquid is forced from the tank to the final vaporizer,
pressure in the tank begins to drop and the pressure build-up regulator returns to operation.

The pressure build-up regulator may be located in the liquid line before the pressure build-up
coil. As it is now used for liquid rather than gas service, it may have a smaller orifice or be a
smaller-sized valve. Its operation is the same as that of a gas regulator with the exception that it
regulates the liquid flow before the pressure build-up coil rather than the gas flow after the coil.
When pressure in the tank drops, the liquid pressure build-up regulator opens, allowing liquid to
flow through the pressure build-up coil and vaporize.

Pressure build-up regulators are available for most cryogenic system applications. The Type A-32
is a small ¼” (8 mm) pressure build-up valve; the larger Type B, Type G-60 and Type E-55 can be
used for either liquid or gas.

The Type B is available in sizes from ¼” to 2" (8 mm to 50 mm), the G-60 from ¼” to 1½”
(8 mm to 40 mm) and the Type E-55 from 1¼” to 2" (32 mm to 50 mm).

THE ECONOMIZER CIRCUIT

The economizer back pressure regulator is set from 10 to 25 psi (.70 to 1.76 kg/sq cm) above the
set pressure of the pressure build-up regulator. When no gas is being used and heat leakage in
the tank causes a gas pressure build-up, the excess pressure is by-passed into the final vaporizer
line to conserve gas rather than allow the safety valve in the pressure build-up circuit to relieve
the excess gas into the atmosphere.

Five types of back pressure valves are available for this circuit: the Type FRM, low flows,
max. 600 psi (42.18 kg/cm2); FRM-2, medium flows, max. 250 psi (17.58 kg/cm2); FRM-2 (HP) high
pressure, medium flows, max. 400 psi (28.12 kg/cm2); FR, large flows, max. 400 psi (28.12 kg/ cm2)
and the FR-6, max. 600 psi (42.18 kg/cm2).

COMBINATION PRESSURE BUILDER-ECONOMIZER

PBE Series regulators combine the pressure building and economizer functions into one unit.
The economizer phase starts at the point at which the pressure build level is reached, assuring a
smooth transition between the two functions. For sizing information, please request engineering

LOW TEMPERATURE CUT-OFF VALVES

The temperature control valve between the vaporizer and service line regulator is designed
to cut off the gas flow if the gas temperature drops below a pre-determined point, usually
-20°F (144.4K), often caused by a rapid or quick gas draw. If the temperature drops below the
temperature control valve’s setting, the valve closes to prevent excessively cold gas from reaching
the service end of the system. In particular, the cold gas is prevented from contacting the final-
line regulator, which is not constructed or intended for such low-temperature conditions. The
valve opens automatically when gas temperature rises above the set point.

The Type LTC temperature control valve is a double-port valve with a range of 0°F to -40°F
(255K to 233K) for low temperature cut-off. As it is subject to ambient temperature under normal
conditions, it will normally be in a wide-open position. A copper well is recommended for each
installation, which allows the removal of the capillary bulb without depressurizing the system.

Note: Valve seat closure may take several seconds under normal operating conditions. In addition, Type LTC
fails in the closed position.

Note: psid values are pressure drops across valve.

TO DETERMINE CAPACITY

Determine operating pressure level at the valve and the maximum allowable pressure drop
across the valve. Then refer to table above reading down the appropriate column to the selected
pipe size. As an example: you are operating at a 150 psi pressure level and the maximum
allowable pressure drop across the valve is 2 psi. Look at the second table under the 150 psi
level and 2 psid column. For a 1¼” pipe size, the capacity would be 38,665 SCFH. Note: the values
shown in the table are for oxygen gas; all capacity figures are standard cubic feet per hour. To
determine capacity figures for other gases, consult the conversion chart below and multiply the
chart capacities by the factor given.

FINAL LINE CIRCUIT (HOUSE LINE)

Liquid is forced into the vaporizer through the liquid line by the action of the vapor pressure
in the tank. The liquid in the vaporizer is warmed by ambient air (or sometimes by steam) and
changed into gas, which is then distributed through the final-line regulator. As the gas is at or
near ambient temperature, the diaphragm and seat in the regulator can be furnished in standard
rubber materials.
