Design and principle of operation
3 Design and principle of oper -
ation
The Type 3254 Valve is a single-seated
globe valve. This valve is preferably com-
bined with a SAMSON Type 3271 or
Type 3277 Pneumatic Actuator (see
Fig. 3-1). It can also be combined with other
actuators.
The seat (4) and plug with plug stem (5) are
installed in the body (1). An additional plug
stem guide exists in the bottom body flange
(100), which prevents the plug stem from os-
cillating. The plug stem is connected to the
actuator stem (A7) by the stem connector
clamps (A26/27) and is sealed by a
spring-loaded V-ring packing (15). The
springs in the pneumatic actuator are locat-
ed either above or below the diaphragm
(A4) depending on the selected fail-safe ac-
tion. A change in the signal pressure acting
on the diaphragm causes the plug to move.
The actuator size is determined by the dia-
phragm area.
The medium flows through the valve in the
direction indicated by the arrow. A rise in
signal pressure causes the force acting on
the diaphragm in the actuator to increase.
The springs are compressed. Depending on
the selected direction of action, the actuator
stem retracts or extends. As a result, the plug
position in the seat changes and determines
the flow rate through the valve.
We recommend the use of positioners with
integrated diagnostic firmware (see sec-
tion 3.4) for valves used for on/off service.
The partial stroke test included in this soft-
ware helps prevent a shut-off valve normally
in its end position from seizing up or getting
jammed.
3.1 Fail-safe action
The fail-safe position of the control valve up-
on air supply or control signal failure de-
pends on the actuator used (see associated
actuator documentation).
Depending on how the compression springs
are arranged in the SAMSON Type 3271
and Type 3277 Pneumatic Actuator, the
valve has one of two different fail-safe posi-
tions:
Actuator stem extends (FA)
When the signal pressure is reduced or the
air supply fails, the springs move the actua-
tor stem downward and close the valve. The
valve opens when the signal pressure is in-
creased enough to overcome the force exert-
ed by the springs.
Actuator stem retracts (FE)
When the signal pressure is reduced or the
air supply fails, the springs move the actua-
tor stem upwards and open the valve. The
valve closes when the signal pressure is in-
creased enough to overcome the force exert-
ed by the springs.
The actuator's direction of action can be re-
versed, if required. Refer to the mounting
and operating instructions of the pneumatic
actuator:
