Demonstrated Performance

Vee-Ball control valves undergo extensive testing for proof of performance. The PlantWeb™

dynamic performance lab enables thorough product testing and analysis.

Added-Value Features

Minimal Deadband - A patented, taper key

ball-to-shaft connection (see ) eliminates

lost motion and minimizes deadband. During

maintenance procedures, this arrangement proves

to be more reliable and easier to assemble than

conventional connections.

Heavy-Duty (HD) Seal - The Fisher patented

heavy-duty ball seal (see ) offers exceptional wear

and pressure drop performance over a wide range of

steam, gas, liquid, and slurry applications. The metal

seal is pressure-balanced, which reduces operating

torques and allows higher pressure drops without

excessive wear.

Easy Seal Replacement and Inspection - Once the

valve is removed from the pipeline, just remove

two screws and the seal assembly (see ) is easily

extracted from the body. No need to disassemble the

valve body or remove the actuator. Metal and soft

seals are fully interchangeable.

Taper key provides solid ball-to-shaft

connection.

6 | Fisher® Vee-Ball™ Rotary Control Valves

HD metal seal fights off scale

and sludge buildup; inspects

and replaces easily since it

requires no adjustment.

12 3

Trim Interchangeability - Across the Vee-Ball line,

size-for-size, trim components remain the same

regardless of body style. This reduces parts inventory

requirements and costs. It also simplifies maintenance

training and procedures.

Better Linkage Protection - Integral mounting of

positioner protects linkages.

Fisher® Vee-Ball™ Rotary Control Valves | 7

Available in ceramic

and R30006 cobalt

alloy (Alloy 6), as well

as chromium plated

CG8M SST materials,

Micro-Notch balls

allow extremely small

flow rates.

Rotary attenuator

reduces liquid

cavitation and

aerodynamic noise.

Superior Bearings - To enhance the performance

and service life of the valve, a patented, low-friction,

high-load bearing system fully supports both drive

and follower shafts. To reduce maintenance costs, this

bearing system is designed to easily drop into place.

Characterized V-Notch Ball Design - The V-notch

ball provides positive shearing action for fibrous

flows and creates an inherently equal percentage

flow characteristic. It has been specially contoured to

maximize capacity and enhance seal life and shutoff

integrity. The Vee-Ball valve offers high capacity with

its unrestricted, straight-through flow path. The result

is accurate throttling control over a wide range of

flow conditions.

Shaft Packing Options - A choice of shaft packing

systems (see ) provides enhanced shaft sealing to

meet specific application requirements.

Structural Integrity - One-piece body (see )

improves structural integrity of the pressure

boundary by eliminating the potential leak paths

found in two-piece, bolted valve designs.

Accurate Positioning - Splined driveshaft (see )

coupled with clamped actuator lever helps ensure

zero lost motion.

Process Compatibility - A wide choice of materials

for valve body, V-notch ball, ball seals, shafts, and

other components allows you to specify a Vee-Ball

valve to meet most process applications.

Standard body materials include both CG8M

(317) and CF3M (316L) stainless steel as well as

WCC carbon steel materials. Additional body

materials include CK3MCuN superaustenitic SST, and

nickel alloys CN7M (Alloy 20), M35-2 (Alloy 400) and

CW2M (Alloy C).

ENVIRO-SEAL® packing, which is available

in all Vee-Ball valves, helps meet

stringent emission control requirements.

Erosive Slurry Control - The V150S Slurry

Vee-Ball valve (see ) has a body liner, V-notch ball,

and flow ring all constructed of high-chromium iron.

A ceramic flow ring insert is available for especially

aggressive slurry services.

Medium Consistency Pulping - The V150E expanded

outlet Vee-Ball valve (see ) accommodates expanded

downstream piping.

7

V150S erosion-resistant trim

components protect the body from

erosive wear and are retained

without the use of press fits or

threads for easy replacement.

8

The V150E outlet flange is one

standard line size diameter larger

than the inlet. The expanded outlet

geometry streamlines the flow

through the valve as the flow

area increases from inlet to outlet.

For Even Greater Versatility,

FIELDVUE Digital Valve Controllers —

Capabilities That Extend Beyond

Traditional Valve Control

While a traditional valve positioner serves a single

purpose, which is to maintain a valve in its intended

control position, FIELDVUE digital valve controllers

(see ) provide much more.

FIELDVUE instrumentation collects

real-time data about valve performance,

which proves crucial not only to reducing

process variability but also to enhancing

plant operations.
