Datasheet Ball segment valve Si-110 EN Edition: 2012-07 Type KVTW/KVXW Wafer design Type KVTF/KVXF Flanged design Nominal pressure PN 25/20/16/10 Nominal size DN 80 - 500 Material Stainless steel and • Control-valve shut-off • High capacity • One-piece shaft gives a torque transmission free of backlash • Excellent tightness irrespective of differential pressure • Easy maintenance Option The SOMAS ball segment valve type KVTW with a centrically mounted shaft, and KVXW with an eccentrically mounted shaft are of wafer design. Type KVTF is a flanged version with centrically mounted shaft while KVXF is flanged and eccentric design. The valve body is in one piece. Shaft device is also in one piece for torque trans­ ission m free of backlash. The spring-loaded seat is available in three alternative materials (PTFE, PTFE 53 and HiCo). The valves can be used for control, as well as for shut-off applications on practi­ ally c every type of media within a wide temperature range. Choose KVT for liquids, media containing impurities etc. For dry and clean media choose KVX. In the KVX-valve the ball segment is eccentrically mounted and rotates out from the seat when the valve is opened. This reduces the wear on seat and segment. Low noise trim is available as an option. The designation “LN” indicates that the ball seg­ ent is equipped with a network of bars that are used to split up the pressure drop m across the valve. This results in less pressure recovery, thereby reducing the noise and potential damage due to cavitation. Note! Capacity factors will be reduced for valves with LN-trim. • KVM-ballwith segment V-groove for high fibre concentrations • LN Noise) (Low Ball segment with low noise trim for high ∆P Ball segment with V-groove is available for use at high fibre concentrations. The V-groove design prevents dewatering at small opening angles. The SOMAS valves are delivered ready for installation and operation. The valve assem­ blies are delivered factory tested as complete units with actuators, positioners and accessories.
