Admitting No Bounds in Custom Throttle Valve Engineering
At our site, we specialize in crafting custom industrial valve solutions to cater to the precise demands of our clients. A recent project involved creating a series of eight custom throttle valves for a client seeking to regulate the flow of lubricating oil in their system. Today, we'll delve into the specifications, components, and operating principles of the throttle valve we provided, highlighting why it's an excellent solution for such applications.
Client Requirements
The client needed a throttle valve that was efficient in regulating oil flow, adhering to specific material and operational requirements. The requested product specifics included:
- Type: A00-DN150x55 (Wafer type, hand-operated throttle valve)
- Design: Double-sided flat sealing surface (A00)
- Nominal Width: DN150
- Inner Diameter (d2): 55
- Line Pressure: 6 Barg
- Material:
- Body: GS-C25 WCB
- Disc: S355J2+N / Liner: Cu-Free
- Throttling Screw, Flange, Nut, Plug: CK35
- O-Ring: Viton
- Washer: Cu
Additionally, the operating temperature was set between 15°C, normal 70°C, and max 80°C (failure), and the medium could be lube oil ISO VG46 & ISO VG32 according to DIN51515 with specified flow rate data.
Throttle Valve Function and Components
The throttle valve serves to regulate the flow of industrial fluids, generally liquids like oil. Key components of the valve include:
- Throttle Screws (Item 2): These screws control the flow rate of the fluid passing through the valve.
- Special Flange (Item 5): Used to connect the valve body to the pipeline.
- Plug (Item 6): Seals off parts of the valve body to prevent leakage.
- O-Ring and Washers (Item 7, 8, & 9): These components keep the valve body leak-free.
- Screws (Item 10): Secure and adjust the valve structure.
Operating Principle For Throttle Valve
To operate the throttle valve:
- Adjust the Throttle Screws: First, unscrew the blind nut and loosen the M36 nut. This will release the throttle screws, enabling adjustment.
- Increase Flow: To increase the flow, turn the throttle screw counterclockwise, allowing more fluid to pass through the valve.
- Decrease Flow: To decrease the flow, turn the throttle screw clockwise, thus reducing the amount of fluid passing through.
- Secure Adjustment: After adjusting, tighten the M36 nut and blind nut to secure the throttle screws in place, ensuring no leaks occur.
Custom-made to suit the client's needs, our throttle valves offer optimal flow control, handling the client's operational conditions with aplomb, including high pressures and leak-free performance.
