Copesvulcan
Copes-Vulcan is a long-established manufacturer of state-of-the-art valve solutions for dealing with liquids, vapors and gases. Our control valves, actuators and steam conditioning equipment continue to be the informed choice for companies across the globe that are involved in the power generation, oil & gas, petrochemical, industrial processing and nuclear energy sectors for severe and critical service applications.
Control Valve
SD Severe Duty Control Valves
The SD-Severe Duty valve is Copes-Vulcans premium severe duty and critical service control valve design.
Feature
SD style control valve assemblies feature a straight through globe and angle style body design with single web internal construction.
The valve body is designed with high structural integrity, large interior flow passageways and a large capacity bowl to accommodate an extensive variety of trim designs while allowing maximum recovery within the valve.
- The massive amount of body and bonnet material utilized and the thick cross sectional areas allow the SD valve to withstand the most severe operational conditions.
- The valve is available in sizes .75-20″ (20-500mm) and ASME pressure classes 150 through 4500 standard. Larger sizes are available as required.
- Typically cast construction, all standard castable materials are available.
- Depending upon size and pressure class, ends are available as threaded, flanged or welded.
- SD Series valves can be fitted with an extensive array of standard and high performance trims to meet most severe duty/critical service requirements.
General Service Control Valves
General Service Valves deliver a new standard of versatility, rugged dependability and cost effectiveness.
Features:
- Straight-through globe style body design with streamlined precision cast bodies provides smooth contours and transition areas; minimizing flow restriction and maximizing capacity.
- Computer calculated cross sections and wall thicknesses assure high structural integrity while maintaining a favorable strength-to-weight ratio.
- Available in 0.758 (20200mm) sizes as standard, ANSI pressure classes of 150600, and most standard castable material choices, with either flanged, welded or threaded end connections.
- Can be equipped with an extensive array of standardized trims to meet virtually any general service requirement.
- Raven, HUSH, Tandem, and GAD high-performance trims are available and can be used to control occurrences of cavitation, flashing or noise. All trims are quick change to assure ease of maintenance and are fully interchangeable between like sizes to ensure maximum flexibility and reduced inventory requirements.
- A complete range of 700 series pneumatic diaphragm actuators are available.
Steam Turbine Bypass Valves
Direct Steam Converting Valve - Steam Atomization (DSCV-SA)
The DSCV-SA embraces the demands of operational excellence, very tight shut off, eliminates thermal shocks, high rangeability, size and installation flexibility combined with low maintenance.
Feature
The DSCV-SA is generally used for Turbine Bypass applications where the valves typically remain closed for long periods of time to isolate steam flow.:
- Cast & fabricated design.
- Wide size configuration
- Extremely flexible
- Flanged or butt weld connections
- ANSI 150 4500, standard, intermediate and split classes
- Minimum straight line lengths required
- High water capacity for large cooling duties
- Low required coolant pressure
- High coolant turndown ratio
- Pressure seal or bolted bonnet; ‘Quick Change’ design trim
