Vulcan Power Valves
Metal Seated Ball Valves for the Power Industry ½" - 2 ½" Through ANSI 4500# Class
The
engineers at SST created the Vulcan Valve with just one
thought in mind - to design the most reliable critical isolation valve
for high temperature steam and feedwater in the
industry. This goal has been accomplished by means
of utilizing proprietary state-of-the-art computer programs which are
designed to optimize every aspect of the Vulcan Valve design. The
result of these efforts, combined with in-house automated numerically
controlled machining capabilities, is an exceptional
product at an affordable price. Compare our
technology and our products to the competition and you will
agree that the Vulcan Valve truly can "Handle the
Heat!"
Vulcan Valve Features
- Computer optimization guarantees the best possible design for a given envelope - Maximum Performance, Minimum Price. In-house computer optimization and industry leading CAD/CAM/CAE tools allow us to rapidly create custom valves guaranteeing superior performance. If you have special requirements, we can handle it.
- Limited class ratings up to 4500# allows for higher temperatures and pressures for a broader range of applications. If your requirements demand superior performance, you should demand the Vulcan Valve.
- Computer optimized bore sizes means a guaranteed lower pressure drop across the valve resulting in increased efficiency and reuced energy loss. The bottom line is ... you save money.
- An articulating gland prevents stem binding and galling during adjustments ensuring maximum performance and uptime.
- Live loading on the packing assures sealing even when the packing consolidates over time. Unlike many competitors who charge for this option live loading is a standard feature on the Vulcan Valve.
- A unique stem and bearing isolation system means proper alignment of the stem and body and assures a leak free seal.
- Stem retention system prevents stem from being "pushed down" which helps ensure ball / seat seal integrity.
- Pressed in seat minimizes the potential leak path while reducing overall manufacturing cost.
- Mate lapped ball and seats for superior shutoff qualities.
- End connections are optimized to reduce concerns about post weld heat treatment.
- The Vulcan Valve is in full compliance with ASME B16.34.
- All Vulcan Valves are tested in-house to the requirements of MSS SP-61.
