We Deliver Safety Safety – is synonymous with the valves that are manufactured by Forbes Marshall Group of Companies. Forbes Marshall valves are manufactured to the highest quality standard followed in the country today. An ISO9001 certified company, Forbes Marshall manufactures products that can be supplied to almost all industries. Be it in the field of Energy conservation or Instrumentation & Controls, Forbes Marshall has a product for most applications.

Valves for the Power Industry:

Forbes Marshall is in the field of Valves since the mid 1980's with a Joint Venture with some of the leading companies in Europe for manufacture of High Pressure Stop Valves, Safety Relief Valves, Turbine Drain, Continuous Blow down, Control Valves and Pressure Reducing and Desuperheating valves and Desuperheaters.

With Collaboration with M/s ARCA Regler Germany, Forbes Marshall is also able to offer valves for Steam and Feed Water Control for the Water and Steam Circuit of a Power Plant.

Efforts are on to enhance the existing range manufactured at the Pimpri Pune unit through indigenization of valves range with valves of the latest technology covering a wide range of sizes and pressure ratings that can be offered for most applications in power plants .

Designs to suit Indian Condition:

Investment in technically trained manpower has helped the company absorb the technology offered by collaborators at a fast pace and wherever appropriate, make changes/adjustments to make the same suitable for Indian Conditions without affecting the product performance.

Forbes Marshall Single stage and Multistage Drain Valves is one such product used for removing Condensate from the Reheater lines and from the body cavities Turbine Control Valve when there is a shutdown in a Power Plant for annual Maintenance or due to a Turbine Trip.

Turbine Drain valves handle high pressure condensate which is dropped across the valve seat. In spite of use of hard and erosion resistant material deposition like Stellite 6 at valve stem and seat.

2

Conventional type Globe valve starts passing at the seat after a few operations. Such failures at valve seat are due to cavitation and flashing which are common for such applications.

While it is difficult to eliminate cavitation completely when handling liquids at high pressure, the effects of cavitation on the valve can definitely be reduced by use of Valve the Multistage valve offered by Forbes Marshall. FM Multistage drain valve are designed specifically for handling high pressure drop across the valve seat before re-starting the turbine. When the plant is in operation, the drain valve offer a high level of leak tightness at valve seat. FM Drain valves have the added advantage of replaceable Trim making it economical for the customer as the customer needs to keep minimal spares for his annual maintenance. Replaceable valve internals provided the customer with the advantage of reduce maintenance down time and reduced cost of spare.

Forbes Marshall Safety Relief Valves and Relief Valves are already in operation at various Nuclear Installations in the country. FM has now also introduced Bellow seal Globe valves specifically to cater to the requirements of this industry. These valves are manufactured indigenously with minimal dependance on overseas vendors. Forbes Marshall is one of the few companies who have been able to take up the challenge of to qualify the valve design and manufacture the valves for such critical applications as demanded for in nuclear power plants.

Gate, Globe, Check and Ball valves are the latest addition to the wide range of valves that FM has to offer. With this FM can cater to the needs of Power, Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Steel and several such industries.

Today Forbes Marshall is one of the few companies that has a product for each industry and for most processes. It has always been our endeavour to make products to suit Indian conditions without compromising on performance or quality.

Unique Features of High Pressure Globe Valves – Forbes Marshall MakeSome of the unique Features in a Forbes Marshall Globe Valves are discussed below:

It is often seen that Globe valve have to handle very high pressure across the valve seat. It is also known fact that in spite of having a stellite deposition at valve seat the seat is not able to withstand high pressure drops for a long time. While there is no foolproof and ready solution for this a valve manufacturer can only ensure that the life of the valve can be enhanced so that the replacement of valves are delayed if not totally eliminated.

One of the problems that has been identified as a possible reason for Valve failure at seat is Vibration of valve disc when the operator is closing the valve.

Cavitation and Flashing at the valve seat are one of the major reasons for valve passing at valve seat. However in addition to this one more prominent problem observed is vibration of valve disc, especially when the operator is closing the valve and disc is close to the valve seat.

Energy at inlet get converted into very high velocity at the lowest/smallest point of the restricted passage giving rise to flashing and high frequency vibration. In short the inlet pressure energy gets partly converted to Vibration Energy, Velocity, Noise etc.

A loose plug design for that brief moment gets affected badly and may vibrate at a very high frequency. The Seat is stellited which is hard but Brittle material and the high frequency vibration of plug at very close proximity to the seat can cause cracking of the seat and eventually valve passing. Forbes Marshall Valves have a single piece stem and disc arrangement which eliminate this problem.

Forbes Marshall Valves also have a line contact between the Disc

4

and Seat. Line contacts are able to seal better compared to Surface contact which are highly dependent on the matching of surface of plug and seat. With line contact between plug and disc the closing force by the valve operator is concentrated on the line of contact giving a better leak tightness.

Furthermore the possibility of any particulate matter getting stuck between the disc and seat at the line contact is much lower when compared to a surface to surface contact.

A non rotating spindle also helps to ensure that there multiple damage to the valve seat is avoided. In the event of cold weld between the Disc and any possible metallic foreign particle trapped between the disc and seat since the disc and spindle do not rotate, it is ensure that the same part of the disc is always in contact with same point on the seat, thus preventing multiple damage to the seat. Thereafter at the first available opportunity, the spindle can be replaced and the seat lapped/polished.

For applications wherein the valve is required to be kept in Crack or Semi Open position, we request that the same is indicated clearly to us. We treat such valve a bit differently.

Such valve may be used on Impulse Lines or on Gate valve Bypass Lines for Pressure Equalisation.

We offer a special accessory SN46 – Control Cone for such valve. With this accessory and in conjunction with the non rotating single piece Stem and Disc feature, we are able to separate the Seating area from the throttling area.

The valve is provided with a small extension to the disc and slots are made in the extension at a predetermined position below the seating section of the disc. As a result when the valve is opened, till the valve disc or plug is not moved sufficiently away from the seat, no real flow starts across the valve. Real flow starts only when the Slot section opens up to the valve inlet. As a result the effects of Cavitation and Flashing are kept away from the valve seat, saving the seating area of the valve.

5

Flow for such an application is reversed i.e. the conventionally Inlet Passage of the valve i.e. from Under the plug is made as the valve as the valve outlet. In short the valve is made to operate as a flow to close type.

The above method of handling very high pressure drop is a proven solution now in use oversea's by most European countries.

The valve Stem is Roller Burnished to Mirror Finish at the Gland Packing section. Roller burnishing is a unique procedure of improving the spindle surface finish to eliminate damage to the gland packing.

With Roller Burnishing ,the frictional forces are reduced considerable and gland packing tightness is assured free of leakage for a long time.

Seat Repair is possible without cutting the Body Bonnet weld joint. This is probably one of the very advantageous feature of this valve.

This is possible because of the following:

1) Roller Burnished Spindle i.e. spindle has a mirror finish which eliminates ware and tare of the Gland Packing during operation of the valve. The valve bonnet section housing the Gland Packing is also roller burnished to prevent damage to the Gland Packing when removing the same for maintenance.

Because of this, there is no need for a separate back seat arrangement.

To approach the valve seat one needs to bring the valve to its full open position, remove 4 nos. bolts on the cover flange located just below the Valve Hand wheel and unwind the Yoke bush from the Spindle threading.

Next unwind the bolts on the gland flange and release the Gland flange by lifting it upwards along with the protective ring placed just below the Gland Flange.

Now the valve is ready for disassembly of the full internals from the

6

top section of the valve.

Using the Yoke bush and Handwheel one can now one needs to screw the Yoke bush back on to the spindle and start rotating the handwheel.

The Left Hand Trapezoidal Yoke Bush Threads engage with the spindle threads lifting by pulling the spindle from the bonnet.

Thereafter once the Spindle is fully out of the bonnet one can free the Gland Flange from the oval shaped protective ring by tilting the Gland Flange in one direction and the ring in the reverse direction.

Using a Simple Z Bar which can be supported on the Yoke section one can use attach a Grinding plug to the Z Bar and put Emery Paper on it and carry out lapping/Polishing of the seat.

Depending on the number of valves used by the customer, such a Kit consisting of Hand Operated Z Bar, Emery Paper and Polishing Plug with a Rubber support can be supplied to the customer.

Safety Valve Terminology

38

Nozzle Discharge Co-Efficient (K): Actual Flow divided by theoretical flow for the same nozzle with no flow loss .

Important Notes related to Safety Valves: Valve actual Orifice Area (A) and Advertised Orifice Area are not the same for most manufacturers. The Actual orifice area of nozzle are higher than the advertised area's and the variation is between 10% to 25%.

In the year 1962, ASME code was amended requiring all Safety Valve manufacturers to derate their valve relieving capacities by 10%. Most manufacturers chose to increase the nozzle area's to maintain the same K*A .

However the advertised API Orifice area's continue to be maintained by most manufacturers. The value of K*A for all manufacturers however is equal to or slightly lower than the National Board listings.

Installation Recommendations

1) Valve Should be Installed Vertical.

2) Inlet Pipe ID should not be smaller than the Valve Inlet connection.

3) ID of outlet piping should not be smaller than Valve outlet .

4) Valve should be supported such that the Vessel/Pipe Vibrations do not get transmitted to the valve.

5) As far as possible valve must be installed directly on protected vessel. In any case pipework between protected vessel and valve must be short with low resistance to flow

6) Discharge pipes should have a light slope towards a drain point to avoid condensate collection in pipe.

a. Safety Relief Valve will Oscillate/Chatter if

1) During valve opening pressure drop at inlet feed pipe is greater than the Safety relief valve blowdown.

2) Feed pipe is of smaller diameter or feed rate is low and therefore unable to keep disc in open position for long duration.

3) Pressure loss in exhaust pipe is too high, resulting in back pressure at valve outlet exceeding acceptable limits.

b. Blowdown will be higher if

1) Pressure drop in Exhaust line high resulting in back pressure higher than acceptable limit.

2) Valve intended for gas service is required to handle gas with entrained droplets of Liquid.

c. Valve will not close Tightly if

1) Seat is damaged of foreign particle is entrapped between disc and seat.

2) Safety Valve Body is being deformed by excessive Vibrations transmitted to it at the valve inlet .

3) The pressure difference between operating pressure and set pressure is too low, less than 10% of the set pressure.

Continuous Blowdown Valve

Intermittent Blowdown Valve

Used to remove feed water to control the amount of dissolved solids. Normally installed near the highest point in the feed water level in the boiler drum, the Continuous Blowdown Valve also known as CBD Valve are opened in proportion amount of water, with dissolved impurities, to be removed from the boiler drum. Valves are kept in partial Open state to remove predetermined amount of water from boiler drum and ensure availability of purer water for generation of steam. Valve kept in partial open position continuously. Valve handles feed water mostly.

Intermittent blowdown (IBD) valves are installed at the lowest point in the boiler drum. IBD valves are opened fully to blow out the solid impurities collected at the base of boiler drum. They are quick open valves and mostly motor operated. Sometimes these valves are also offered with hand wheel or spring lever. IBD Valves have to handle mud and sludge accumulated at the base of boiler drum.

They are installed on turbine drain lines. Drain Valves are designed for pressure drops as high as 200 bar. The single stage valve type ACTx5 is normally recommended by us for handling pressure drops of around 70 bar .For Higher pressure drops a multistage valve type ACTx83 is recommended by us.

They are typically designed for pressure drops as high as 200 bar. The single stage drain valve being recommended for a pressure drop of upto 70 bar and the three stage drain valve being recommended for pressure drops greater than 70 bar upto a maximum of 200 bar.

Multistage Valve consist of a highly robust body with a single seat and a spindle with upto 3 slots specially machined on it. These slots help reduce the pressure in either a single stage or in three stages.

Designed for Handling clean condensate and /or steam. Turbine Drain Control, Reheater Drain Lines etc are some of the applications for these valves. Valves have to handle High Pressure drops when opened and maintain good leak tightness at seat when closed. Conventional Globe valve cannot handle such an application and fail after a few operation. Pressure reduction in Multiple Stage and increased resistance to flow in its passage towards the outlet helps to minimize harmful effects of Cavitation and Flashing enhancing seat life.

Lift Check valves essentially consist of forged body and forged cover bolted on to the body. These are basically one way flow type of valves i.e. non return type. Under pressure of the incoming fluid, the disc will lift permitting the flow to take place through the valve. However, any attempt by the medium to enter the valve will result in the disc coming in the way of the reversing flow, thus shutting off its movement towards the valve inlet the valve will not be successful as the lift disc comes in its path and the reversing medium itself helps to push the disc onto the valve seat ,thus shutting off its movement towards the valve inlet. Such a valve is normally used at the outlet of Chemical Dosing pump etc. Sometimes a combination of Stop Valve with Lift Check Valve called "Stop Cum Check Valve or Screwed Down Non Return Valve" is also used on the pump outlet.
