Series 240
Series 240 Control Valves are available in nominal sizes ranging from DN 15 to DN 300 ( to 12) and up to a nominal
pressure PN 40 (Class 300).
Control valves in the standard version are suitable for temperature ranges between 10 and +220 C (15 and 430 F). An insulating section allows the temperature range to be extended to
200 and +450 C (325 and +840 F).
The plug stem is sealed either by a self-adjusting PTFE V-ring
packing or an adjustable packing. To meet stricter emissions
control requirements, a stainless steel bellows is used.
The Type 3241 Control Valve can be equipped with a heating
jacket that may also include the bellows.
Series 250
Series 250 Control Valves are used when large nominal sizes
and/or high pressures are involved in process engineering,
power plant or supply engineering.
In addition to globe, three-way and angle valves, four-flanged
valve bodies with bottom plug stem guides, and valves with axial multi-stage throttling plugs, customized valve constructions
to meet customer specifications can be engineered as well.
The valves are manufactured in nominal sizes from DN 15 to
DN 500 ( to 16) and for nominal pressures between PN 16
and PN 400 (Class 150 to 2500).
The standard versions of these control valves are suitable for
temperatures ranges between 10 and +220 C (15 and
430 F). This temperature range can, however, be extended by
using an adjustable high-temperature packing to a temperature
range between 10 and +350 C (15 and 660 F) and by using
a bellows seal or an insulating section to a temperature range
between 200 and +500 C (325 and +930 F).

Three-way valve
(T 8026 EN)
Three-way valves are used for mixing or flow-diverting service.
The mode of operation depends on how the two plugs are arranged. The direction of flow is indicated by arrows.
12
Angle valve
(T 8065 EN)
Angle valves are ideally installed when a vertical pipeline and a
horizontal pipeline need to be connected. The process medium
is only diverted once. Angle valves allow the condensate to be
optimally treated, and are practically entirely self draining.
In case the process medium is in the flow-to-close direction,
wear in the valve outlet can be reduced by the use of an
anti-wear sleeve.
For process media containing solids, the outlet of the Type 3256
Control Valves can additionally be fitted with a ceramic
wear-resistant pipe.
T 8000-1 EN
Cryogenic valve
(T 8093 EN)
Plants that produce liquefied, cryogenic air separation gases,
often use vacuum-insulated pipelines to prevent environmental
heat being transferred to the medium. The control valves can be
integrated in the vacuum jacket by means of a connecting
flange. The valve is designed to widely prevent thermal conduction to the effect that the stem remains free of ice. A bellows seal
serves as the primary sealing.
The jacketed pipeline is evacuated of air and sealed off after installation of the components. The cryogenic extension bonnet of
the control valve is often welded to the jacketed pipeline via a
flange, meaning considerable work would be involved to
remove the valve from the pipeline. However, to make maintenance possible, the internal parts can be accessed via the cryogenic extension bonnet without having to remove the valve from
the pipeline.
Diaphragm valve
(T 8031 EN)
For viscous or corrosive media possibly containing solids, diaphragm control valves that are free of dead space and without
stuffing boxes are an economical solution. The diaphragm may
be made of rubber, nitrile, butyl or PTFE. The valve body may
additionally be lined with rubber or PTFE.
13
T 8000-1 EN
On-off valve
(T 8039 EN)
The valve for on-off service is used for tight shutoff of liquids,
non-flammable gases and steam. As the valve plug is equipped
with both a metal sealing and a soft sealing, the leakage flow
rate class VI is achieved.
Valve bonnets
The valve bonnet closes the valve at the top and provides room
for the stuffing box and the plug stem guide. The valve bonnet
and the yoke of Series 240 Valves are incorporated in one
piece. The valve bonnet and the yoke of Series 250 and 280
Valves are bolted together. The NAMUR rib standardized in
IEC 60534-6 located on the yoke allows easy, standardized attachment of a positioner or other accessories. The valve bonnet
is a pressure-bearing part that is exposed to the process medium, therefore its material is subject to the same design requirements as the valve body.
Packing
The plug stem is sealed by the packing. Versions with bellows
seal or insulating section or when the packing functions as a
backup packing use the standard packing.
The temperature range of the standard packing is between 10
and 220 C and can be extended when an insulating section is
fitted on the valve bonnet.
Micro-flow valve
(T 8091 EN)
Micro-flow valves are used for very low flow rates (KV coefficients <1.6 to 105 m3/h).
The parts exposed to the process medium are made of stainless
steel 1.4571. All valve parts are made of semi-finished products. As a result, special materials can be used in a particularly
cost-effective manner, and the valve covers a wide range of applications.
Steam-converting valve
(T 8251/4 EN)
Steam-converting valves are used to reduce the steam pressure
and the steam temperature simultaneously. A connecting pipe
supplies the spray water to the flow divider St III. At its inner
wall, the spray water comes into contact with the steam flow.
The steam flow and the entrained water are mixed in the narrow
wire mesh of the flow divider. As the supplied spray water does
not come into contact with the valve body, neither erosion nor
thermal shock occur. The flow divider ensures low-noise and
low-vibration operation.

Metal sealing
Soft sealing
The seat, plug, and plug stem are made of stainless steel. In
some cases, the trim elements are subject to high stress due to
high differential pressures, cavitation, flashing, or in cases
where the process media contains solids. In order to increase
the service life, seats and plugs with metal sealing can be provided with a Stellite hard facing, and plugs up to DN 100 can
be made of solid Stellite.
The seats are screwed into place, allowing them to be easily exchanged. They may also be made of other materials.

Pressure balancing
If the actuator force is not sufficient to handle the differential
pressure, pressure-balanced plugs are a good solution. The
plug is designed to function as a piston. The upstream pressure
p1 is transferred to the back of the plug via a borehole in the
bottom of the plug. The forces acting on the plug are compensated for with exception of the area around the plug stem.
Pressure-balanced plugs are additionally sealed with a PTFE
ring or a graphite ring. The pressure-balanced components are
subject to wear. As a result, the seat leakage rate (see Table 2)
and the amount of maintenance needed for these valves
increase. Pressure-balanced plugs should not be used, if at all
possible, for high-temperature process media or for media that
contain solids or crystallize out. In these cases, we recommend
to use a more powerful actuator.
Type 3256 Angle Valve with ceramic trim and wear-resistant pipe
Low-noise operation
Flow dividers
(T 8081 EN)
The flow dividers St I and St III serve to reduce the noise emission
of gases and vapors. The process medium reaches its maximum
velocity after passing the restriction between seat and plug. Before it starts to create a noise-intensive, turbulent mixing zone,
the process medium hits the inner wall of the flow divider. The
flow is divided and a low-noise impulse exchange with the surrounding medium takes place.
16
T 8000-1 EN
AC trims
(T 8082/3 EN)
AC-1 and AC-2 Trims are optimized trims for low-noise
pressure letdown of liquids at differential pressures up to
40 bar. The seat is raised and the parabolic plug is additionally
guided in the seat.
The AC-2 Trim additionally has up to four attenuation plates.
AC-1 Trim
Additional components
Bellows seal
In case, stricter emissions control requirements must be met, e.g.
TA-Luft or in vacuum applications, a metal bellows is used to
seal the plug stem. The plug stem is additionally sealed with a
packing at the top flange. This packing serves as a backup
packing.
The metal bellows can be monitored for leakage or a sealing
medium can be applied by means of a test connection.
The bellows seal can be used for valves of
Series 240 from 200 to +400 C, and
Series 250/280 from 200 to +450 C.
AC-2 Trim
Insulating section
The application range of a standard packing can be extended
to an operating temperature of less than 10 C or over
+220 C by using an insulating section.
Silencer
The silencer acts as a fixed restriction that can be installed
downstream of the valve with one to five attenuation plates for
applications with gases or vapors. The silencer increases the
backpressure downstream of the valve which leads to a reduction in the valve outlet velocity and sound pressure level.
Insulating section
17
T 8000-1 EN
Heating jacket
Some process media only flow easily above a certain temperature. Below this temperature they start to solidify or crystallize
out. The valve bodies are fitted with a heating jacket to ensure
that the process medium remains at a certain temperature and
can flow freely. The valve bonnet may also be equipped with a
heating jacket when the plug stem is sealed by a bellows seal.

Inherent characteristic
The characteristic shows the relationship between the KV flow
coefficient and the travel (H).
Control valves are either designed with an equal percentage
(2) or with a linear (1) characteristic.
The equal percentage characteristic can be identified by equal
increments of travel that yield equal percentage increments of
the KV flow coefficient.
Whereas, in a linear characteristic, equal increments of travel
yield equal increments of the KV flow coefficient.
Valve-specific parameters
KVS coefficient
The necessary KV coefficient is calculated according to
DIN EN 60534 from the specified operating data.
The KVS coefficient is specified in the data sheets to identify the
valves. It corresponds to the KV coefficient at the rated travel
H100. In order to increase control accuracy and with regard to
manufacturing tolerances, the selected KVS coefficient must be
higher than the KV coefficient.
Rangeability
The rangeability is the quotient of KVS/KVR. KVR being the
smallest KV where the characteristic still lies within the
permissible gradient tolerance of the characteristic
(DIN EN 60534 Part 2-4).

Actuators
Actuators convert the control signal issued, for example, by a
positioner into a travel motion carried out by the control valve
(plug stem with valve plug).
We supply pneumatic, electric and electrohydraulic actuators
as well as hand-operated actuators (see Information Sheet
T 8300 EN).
Pneumatic actuators
These are used for pneumatic or electropneumatic control
equipment. Pneumatic actuators are diaphragm actuators with
a rolling diaphragm and internally fitted springs. The benefits of
pneumatic actuators include their low overall height, strong positioning force and fast response.
Different signal pressure ranges are available. Pneumatic actuators are suitable for use in hazardous areas as well as featuring a fail-safe action: Upon air supply failure, the control valve
is either closed or opened.
The Type 3277 Pneumatic Actuators allow direct attachment of
positioners or limit switches. This prevent the travel linkage from
being misaligned as it is located within the yoke below the actuator housing.
Pneumatic actuators can additionally be equipped with a
handwheel (see T 8310-1 EN and T 8310-2 EN).
Electric actuators
If compressed air is not available, electric actuators with strong
positioning forces and large travels may be used. These actuators are self-locking.
Electric actuators are connected to three-point stepping controllers, electric positioners issuing analog signals or over a reversing contactor unit (see T 8330 EN).
Electrohydraulic actuators
These actuators are connected to an analog signal via
three-point stepping controllers or electric positioners. Versions
with fail-safe action are available (see T 8340 EN).
Type 3275
Pneumatic Piston Actuator
Hand-operated actuators
They are attached to Series 240 and 250 Control Valves which
are used as hand-operated control valves with rated travels of
15 or 30 mm (see T 8312 EN). Hand-operated actuators with
larger travels are available on request (Type 3273-5/6).

Solenoid valve
Limit switches
Whenever an adjustable limit value is exceeded or not reached,
a signal is issued. Inductive limit switches are frequently used.
However, versions with electric or pneumatic microswitches are
also available (see Information Sheet T 8350 EN).
Position transmitter/potentiometer
To indicate the travel position of a control valve, the rated travel
range is represented by an analog electric signal (see
T 8363 EN).
Solenoid valves
The binary signals from control equipment are converted into
binary pneumatic control signals. As a result, the control valve
can quickly be brought into its final position. The solenoid
valves are used for on-off valves or for control valves with
fail-safe position (e.g. Type 3241 typetested, T 8016 EN; T
3701 EN).
Lock-up valve
Pneumatic
remote adjuster
Lock-up valve
If the supply air pressure falls below an adjusted value, the signal pressure line is shut off. When this happens, the actuator
stops in its last position (see T 8391 EN).
Pneumatic remote adjuster
Manually adjustable precision regulator for the set point adjustment of pneumatic control equipment.
Supply pressure regulators
Supply pressure regulators provide pneumatic control valves
with a constant air pressure (adjustable between 0 and 6 bar)
(see T 8546 EN).
Supply pressure regulator with air filter
They consist of a supply pressure regulator and an air filter
holding back foreign particles, oil and/or condensate (see
T 8546 EN).

Calculating the KV coefficient
The KV coefficient is calculated according to DIN EN 60534.
The data sheets contain the necessary device-specific
specifications.
A preliminary, simplified calculation may be made with the help
of the working equations listed below. They do not take into account the influence of the connecting fittings or choked flow at

Noise prediction
xFz factor
The valve-specific xFz factor is measured on the valve test bench
and provides the basis for noise prediction.
When the load of the valve is y = 0.75, this factor indicates the
pressure ratio at which cavitation begins.

Liquids
The noise emission on throttling liquids is calculated according
to DIN EN 60534, Part 8-4. This calculation is consistent with
the calculation according to VDMA 24422, Edition 89. It is
based on the jet power reached in the valve and also on the
valve-specific acoustical conversion coefficient F empirically
determined according to VDMA 24423 for turbulent flows as
well as the valve-specific pressure ratio xFz at the beginning of
cavitation.
The sound power level and the sound level difference at a distance of 1 m for the valves with different xFz values can be seen
in the diagram 2.
For a pressure ratio of xF = 0.5, and a valve with xFz = 0.6, the
sound level which is 20 dB less than that of a valve with
xFz = 0.3.
