Fully open - no control position
Figure 1-3:
Opens on increasing differential pressure
Typical for LPG, NH3 or similar products
The Model 770 as illustrated is identical to the previously described 770 valve except it is
shown as a vapor pressure control valve for products having high flash points such as
butane, propane, anhydrous ammonia or other products with similar characteristics.
When metering these products, the pressure at the meter must be higher than the vapor
pressure of the product, otherwise it turns into a gaseous state resulting in meter damage
due to over-speed plus inaccurate measurement an possible pump damage. The
differential pressure between the meter inlet pressure and the vapor pressure (P4) is
generally 10 to 30 psid to assure that the product is in a liquid state when it passes through
the meter.
Closed position - vapor pressure
In
the valve is closed. Vapor pressure (P4) plus pilot spring setting is greater than
the line pressure (P1), indicating the pump is not running or sufficient differential pressure
(P1 minus P4) is not available to overcome the pilot spring setting. Pilot is closed. Y-port
(P3) to Z-port (P2) is closed. X-port (P1) and Y-port (P3) pressures become balanced. The
main valve spring being the differential force, closes the piston and keeps it sealed.
The Model 770 is recommended for applications requiring valve closure on decreasing
pressure differential, such as, pump differential control, LPG or Anhydrous Ammonia vapor
control.
