Tapping into pressure lines
15 Jan 2000
The Monoflange primary isolation ball valve from Anderson Greenwood is designed for instrumentation pressure tapping duties. It has been specially designed to meet the specifications of a leading petrochemical company, and is said to be ideal for applications where space and weight savings are crucial considerations.
The slimline valve has an integral forged body with a single `super finished' quarter-turn ball valve. The ball is vented for upstream cavity relief and to provide uni-directional capability. The unit also features a one-piece stem spindle for anti-blowout protection.
