Typical specification
Excess pressure control shall be achieved using direct acting valves with stainless steel bellow stem seals and
fully balanced trims. Trim balancing shall be by stainless bellows on valves DN25 to DN100 and by plug
balancing in smaller sizes.
All valves shall be controlled by high quality chrome vanadium springs and fabric reinforced diaphragms.
Valve bodies shall be SG iron PN25 or cast steel PN40 depending on the maximum operating pressure.
