Description
Metal-to-metal sealing is one of the FLS gate valve’s advantages. Design simplicity ensures reliability. Sealing in both directions Backseat stem, No longitudinal preload or exact spaceout are required with its nonelastomeric, spring-loaded, pressure-energized stem seal. Seat design that is unique, Lip seals that serve a variety of purposes: As an extra layer of protection against pollutants and debris, Maintaining contact between the gate and the seats, removing body cavity clearance while keeping the slab gate’s downstream sealing function. Qualification testing to API 6A, Annex F (PR-2) and Annex I (Class II), optional torque multiplier Enhancing sealing integrity at extremely low differential pressures, where low bearing stresses tend to restrict the efficacy of the metal-to-metal seal.
