Valtek Valdisk™

High-Performance Butterfly
Control Valve

Experience In Motion
Maintain process integrity and ensure
a smooth production flow
Control valves play a critical role in process applications by maintaining process integrity and ensuring a smooth production flow.
They assure process variables remain close to the desired setpoint and facilitate improvements in process productivity, plant
uptime and employee safety.

Control valve reliability is even more vital in demanding, high-cycle applications — such as pressure swing adsorption (PSA) and
air separation in oil and gas refineries and chemical refining — that experience more than 200,000 cycles per year.

Operators in these and other industries are challenged with selecting durable control valves that deliver reliable performance,
high control and throttling accuracy while minimizing operating, maintenance and ownership costs.

The Valtek Valdisk control valve from Flowserve is a high-performance butterfly valve designed to improve uptime and minimize
operating and ownership costs. It is engineered to deliver bubble-tight shutoff, reliable control and throttling accuracy in a variety
of standard and high-cycle applications.

Improved uptime
The Valdisk control valve features a soft seat designed to provide
long-lasting, tight shutoff in both flow directions. This allows
for optimum leakage resistance in demanding applications to
minimize downtime and improve plant productivity.

Lower maintenance costs


The double-offset disc design minimizes seat and disc wear
as well as leakage, which extends seat life and reduces
maintenance costs.

High-performance throttling
The Valdisk control valve has a high-thrust cylinder actuator
coupled with an eccentric-cammed disc, which enables
unmatched, high-performance throttling.

Seats
Soft seat
Unique seat design utilizes the pressure drop across the valve
to help energize the soft seat to bubble-tight shutoff in either
flow direction, including alternating flow applications. This
is done in such a way that seating capacity is increased as
differential pressure is increased.

ANSI/FCI 70-2 Class VI shutoff.


Figure 1: Soft seating arrangement

Metal seat
Metal seats are used for applications involving temperatures
higher than those permitted by the soft seat. The design
incorporates a highly flexible lip, which assures full-circle
contact between the seat and disc when the valve is closed.

ANSI/FCI 70-2 Class IV shutoff.

Dual fire-safe seat


This seat arrangement incorporates the unique design of
the soft seat for tight shutoff plus a metal seat that provides
full seat contact in the event a fire damages the soft seat.
