Overview of MIL control valves for the process industry

The top- and bottom-guided double-ported control valve is characterised by a high permissible pressure drop across the valve. The high flow capacity typical of this design is attained with low pressure recovery. Bi-directional flow is permitted; wide flow passage, suitable for viscous fluids.

Top-guided single-ported heavy post-guided control valve for a wide temperature range.

Compact and light-weight construction, rugged stem guiding, field-reversible actuator, tight shut-off.

Compact microflow globe valves with high rangeability (500:1), quick-change trim for on-site adjustment of flow coefficient, rugged cage-style plug guide; anti- cavitation design available.

Cage-guided single-ported heavy-duty control valves, high pressure drop capability; noise reduction and anti-cavitation solution available by replacing the standard cage.

Top-guided single-ported heavy-duty control valves in angle pattern.

The letdown control valves in angle pattern are designed for all applications where flashing (flash evaporation) or two-phase (liquid and gaseous) flows may occur; no body/trim erosion, vibration or noise. Due to its angle pattern, the globe valve is self-draining.

Multi-stage low-noise control valve with labyrinth trim.

Multistage control valve in anti-cavitation design with wear-resistant multistage trim and detachable flow bush / spacer.

Multistage multi-path control valve with Matrix trim; pressures of up to 420 bar can be reduced by up to 50 pressure reduction stages, preventing cavitation and greatly reducing fluid velocity.

The automatic recirculation valve (ARV) is a multifunctional valve whose primary function is to ensure a pre-determined minimum flow through the centrifugal pump at all times.

Three-way combining and diverting control valves.

Uni-directional segmented ball valve for high flow rates, with single-piece body, V-notch segmented ball for excellent shearing action, and spring-loaded seat for higher seat leakage classification.

MIL 37 (fail-safe position: spring-to-close) and MIL 38 (fail-safe position: spring-to-open) are pneumatic single-spring diaphragm actuators for linear valves.

High-power high-performance double-acting piston actuator suitable for high supply air pressures (up to 100 psi; system air, natural gas or other non-corrosive gaseous fluids can be used).
