NEW: Flare Pattern™ Manifold Valves

NOSHOK’s new Flare Pattern™ valve configuration is now an available option on our 5030/5130 and 5530 Series 5-valve natural gas manifold valves. The equalization valves and vent valve on these manifolds are angled to provide maximum clearance for fingers during operation.

Backed by an industry-leading 3-year warranty, these manifold valves are designed for use with differential pressure transmitters incorporating two isolation valves, two equalizing valves and a vent valve required in natural gas applications. These valves feature a patented body-to-bonnet, metal-to-metal seal which is designed to significantly increase the pressure range of the valve (U.S. Patent 7,758,014). NOSHOK soft tip valves also feature a patented Delrin® non-rotating soft tip stem, and a back-up metal-to-metal seal (U.S. Patent 6,820,857). They are available in block, single flange, or double flange connection for remote or direct installation.

NOSHOK 5030 Series hard seat valves have a 10,000 psi pressure rating @ 200 °F, and the 5130 Series soft seat/tip valves have a 6,000 psi pressure rating @ 200 °F. Multiple options are available including packings, stem tips, o-rings and handles, and we also offer accessories including dielectric kits, futbols, mounting kits, differential pressure to static plates and static adapters.

NEW: Industrial RTDs

NOSHOK’s new probe type Industrial RTDs are available in 2, 3 or 4-wire circuit configurations in single or dual elements, and with a variety of fitting sizes and probe diameters. These general purpose RTD probes feature PVC or PTFE lead wires and are ideal for OEM applications including chemical processing, textile production, automotive, plastics processing and HVAC.

Features and options include:

  • When used in conjunction with a thermowell, the probe can be replaced
    without the possibility for leakage
  • 1/2” NPT welded process fitting standard, other sizes and adjustable fittings are available
  • RTD PT100 Ω Class B standard, others available
  • Connection heads are available which meet NEMA requirements for indoor or outdoor use providing protection against dust, rain, splashing and hose-directed water
  • Multiple electrical connections are available including 1/2” NPT conduit with 36” cable, 36” integral cable, 1/2” NPT conduit with 6” flying leads, M12 x 1 (5-pin), 3-pin RTD plug and
    M12 X 1 (8-pin)

Application Insight  

WATER & WASTEWATER
APPLICATION-FOCUSED SOLUTIONS

NOSHOK provides a variety of application-focused assemblies to the water & wastewater industry, including an all non-metallic diaphragm seal & pressure transmitter/switch. This tested and proven solution is used in multiple municipalities, and replaces much larger & heavier gauge/switch/diaphragm seal assemblies for pump shut-off protection.

This solution delivers a high level of repeatability and durability, and includes an electronic indicating pressure transmitter with two alarms protected by a corrosion-resistant, chemically inert PTFE diaphragm seal - with one simple connection. Its compact size and light weight significantly decreases possible leak paths, and with no moving parts to wear out, this instrument assembly provides a significantly extended service life over mechanical analog systems. The instrument and seal can be used with a power supply and Form C relays to easily integrate into any AC chemical feed system.

NOSHOK offers is an AC to DC retrofit package which easily integrates with this assembly to allow operation with 110/240 VAC systems. Featuring a solid state relay - (10A at 250 VAC), this unit is DIN rail mountable with a NEMA 4X enclosure.

NOSHOK also offers a cage-protected submersible level transmitter designed for severe high solids environments such as sewage, lift stations, storm canals, wet wells and slurry tanks where sludge, slurry or turbulence may be present. The assembly is welded at the cap, making it ideal for a wide variety of industrial and municipal liquid level measurement applications requiring watertight protection. Multiple options are available including a lifting ring, cable clamp, cable junction box, filter element and desiccant cartridge.

Q:

What are the differences in stem tip options for instrument valves?

A:

A one piece valve stem rotates and translates along its axis as it is being driven axially into the orifice. The rotational motion of the stem produces an undesirable amount of friction and galling against the sealing surface if not properly lubricated.

A non-rotating stem tip rotates independently from the stem and stops rotating as it is driven axially against the orifice sealing surface while the stem continues its rotational and axial movement.

A ball tip is a type of non-rotating tip that is used when metering and flow control is not required and a quick opening and closing of the orifice is needed. Ball tips require a few turns to fully open and close the orifice. The spherical surface of ball tips have the advantage of easily sealing an orifice that may be slightly misaligned because multiple tangential contacts available on its surface. Material selection is primarily based on wear life.

Regulating hard tip stems have increased metering capabilities. The stem incorporates a fine pitched thread that requires additional turns to open and a specially design stem tip taper that allows for a slow and gradual opening of the orifice. This feature is often used on high pressure gases that may freeze upon expansion if the pressure drops too quickly.
