Description
Designed for the oilfield, the Model 72 gate valve is the proven, reliable choice for applications requiring up to 7,500 psi (525 bar) working pressure and 250°F (121°C) temperature. The Model 72 gate valve is ideal for corrosive water flood applications, sour gas and crude oil service, as well as certain wellhead applications. Whether used in your mud system, floor and standpipe manifold, or flow line application, the Model 72 is field proven for easy operation, tight shut-offs, long life, and simple, fast, low-cost field renewal. Manufactured in our API 6A certified facility to high standards and rigorously tested prior to shipment ensures a quality valve for years of reliable field service.
Features & Benefits
- Utilization of body subs allow change out of valve connections without replacing entire valve.
- Body subs for most valve connections including LPT, CSG, LCSG, EUE, NUE, Buttweld Sch. 40 though XXS & metric, Hammer Union, and API & ANSI Flanged with custom end connections available upon request.
- Full rising one piece forged gate and stem display the current valve orientation as either open, partially open, or closed.
- Standard gate packings and components for a wide range of fluid environments.
1. **Body**: The valve body is typically made of durable materials such as carbon steel or stainless steel to withstand high-pressure and corrosive environments. It comes in various sizes to accommodate different pipe diameters.
2. **Gate**: The gate is a crucial component that controls the flow of fluids through the valve. It is a flat, wedge-shaped disk that can be moved up and down within the valve body to open or close the flow path.
3. **Sealing Mechanism**: Oteco style gate valves use a metal-to-metal sealing mechanism. When the gate is lowered, it makes contact with two seats located on the inner walls of the valve body, creating a tight seal to prevent leakage.
4. **Bonnet**: The bonnet is the top part of the valve and houses the stem and other internal components. It provides protection and access for maintenance.
5. **Stem**: The stem connects the gate to the handwheel or actuator on the outside of the valve. Turning the handwheel or activating the actuator raises or lowers the gate to control flow.
6. **Handwheel or Actuator**: Gate valves can be manually operated using a handwheel or automated with an actuator, such as pneumatic, hydraulic, or electric actuators. Automated valves are commonly used in remote or hazardous locations.
7. **Rising Stem**: Oteco style gate valves typically have a rising stem design, which means that the stem extends or retracts as the valve is operated. This provides a visual indication of the valve's position.
8. **Full Bore Design**: Gate valves are known for their full-bore design, which means the internal diameter of the valve is nearly equal to the pipe diameter, minimizing pressure drop and allowing for efficient flow control.
9. **Bi-Directional Flow**: Oteco style gate valves are typically capable of controlling flow in both directions, making them versatile for various applications.
10. **Locking Device**: Some gate valves are equipped with a locking device to prevent unauthorized operation, ensuring safety and security.
These valves are widely used in the oil and gas industry, as well as in other sectors where high-pressure fluid control is required. Their robust construction, ability to provide a tight seal, and capability to handle extreme conditions make them essential components in critical industrial processes. Proper maintenance and periodic inspections are crucial to ensure their reliable performance and safety.
