1. This is a special non-ANSI/FCI leakage class.
2. Class V shutoff requires spring-loaded seal ring, radiused-seat plug, and
wide-bevel seat ring (not available with 8-inch port, quick-opening cage). Not
available with trims 4, 29, and 85.
Description
These single-port valves have cage guiding,
quick-change trim, and balanced
push-down-to-close valve plug action. Valve
configurations are as follows:
Design ET—Globe-style valve (figure 1) with
metal-to-PTFE seating (standard for all except
Cavitrol III cages) for stringent shutoff requirements,
or metal-to-metal seating (standard for Cavitrol III
cages, optional for all others) for higher
temperatures.
Design EAT—Angle version of Design ET, used to
facilitate piping or in applications which require a
self-draining valve.
