Flow-Tek’s Series 7000 & 8000 ball valves offer the highest flexibility in selection of end connections, seat materials and 3 piece design. To meet customer demands for a valve with the widest possible range of applications, these valves can be fitted with control or tri-ported balls (for full cavity drainage), as well as cavity fillers for special service requirements.
The Series 7000/8000 is designed with extensive interchangeability of balls, stems, stem packing, handles and mounting hardware between valve sizes and series members. This system reduces parts inventory and maintenance costs. The 3 Piece Body Design allows the body to swing-out for ease of in-line maintenance. It also makes it possible to offer a wide variety of end conections.
Stem Assemblies
Flow-Tek manufactures heavy duty, high quality stems with double “D” connection to ball and operator mounting. Stems are mated with the ball to ensure positive contact. All Flow-Tek stems are internal entry and blowout proof for maximum safety.
Smart Stem
Valve Sizes 1/4” through 21/2” Flow-Tek’s Interchangeable Family of valves feature strong, large diameter stems with live-loaded, self-adjusting sealing utilizing belleville washers which automatically adjust to compensate for changes in temperature and wear. Manual adjustments which can cause damage to the seal and seat are not required. The assembly is secured by a saddle-type lock washer which prevents stem nuts from unthreading in high cycle automation applications.
3 Piece Valve Body Design
The unique body design of the Series 7000/8000 offers many advantages, including installation flexibility, and ease of in line and out of line servicing. These time saving features are a big plus for process industries, automated valves and welded piping systems by reducing costly downtime. During maintenance, the actuator and mounting assemblies remain on the valve body. The entire valve and actuator assembly is easily reinstalled. No adjustment or reattachment is necessary.
