EXCESS FLOW SHUTDOWN
VALVE

The Hydrocore Excess Flow Shutdown Valve is used for pipeline safety isolation, when excess flow occurs.

Principals of Operation

The Hydrocore™ excess flow shutdown valve closes when a preset differential pressure ∆P=Pu-Pd exists across the valve. The valve is powered by the line-fluid pressure with no need for external actuators, pilots, instruments or an external power source.

FEATURES
  • Does not need an expensive actuator to operate

  • Does not need a gears, spindle, bushes, shafts, keys and keyways that can wear out and cause the limit switch to go out or cause the actuator to fail.

  • No pneumatic systems.

  • Superior flow coefficient (Cv/Kv)

  • Can be maintained in line

  • High cavitation resistance due to design

  • Stainless steel moving internals parts

  • Cast steel body 

  • Low pressure drop across valve

  • Flanges and face-to-face dimensions to customer specification
