Worcester Controls

Flowserve Worcester Controls presents the

quality solution to problems of manual and
automatic control of cryogens.
Flowserve Worcester Controls has the quality solution for tough applications involving all types
of cryogens; oxygen, hydrogen, methane, ammonia, nitrogen, fluorine, LNG and deuterium.
Our complete line of cryogenic valves, backed by years of successful field experience,
incorporates superior technology and design. This means automatic or manual control of
cryogenic fluids with no contamination, no fluid degradation and no waste while assuring
safety for workers, property and the environment. The wrong specifications here can turn an
inferior valve into a time bomb. Tough applications demand Worcester Controls special service
cryogenic valves.

Heres Why:
Positive Ball Cavity Relief An upstream relief hole in the ball
prevents dangerous overpressure due to thermal expansion. On
extended stem valves through 2", a one-piece stem with alignment
pin assures proper orientation of the ball.
Pressure Safe Stem Both one-piece and two-piece, assembledinside-the-body stems are safe from blowout and are supported with
Polyfill thrustwashers.
Zero Leak Packing Belleville live-loaded TFE packing rings and stem
centering followers assure zero leakage through the toughest, highcycle applications.
Effective Bonnet Extensions The stem extensions of Worcester
Controls cryogenic valves conform to standard industrial practices.
That means wall thickness and lengths that keep heat transfer down,
the packing frost-free, operational torques low, and actuators solidly
supported.

Upstream relief hole

High-Performance/Low-Thermal Stress The special part

compatibility design of valve parts, Polyfill seats and body seals
assure tight shutoff, zero body leakage and low torque through large
thermal excursions from ambient to -425F.
Valves Designed for Automation Approximately 40% of cryogenic
installations require fail-safe operation or automatic on/off control.
Worcester Controls has the pneumatic and electronic, computercompatible controls for your installation.
Valves Designed for Fire Safety A Series 94 double-graphite, stemsealed fire-tight version of our cryogenic valve is available through
the Custom Products Department. These valves are especially
effective in hydrogen and liquefied natural gas systems.

Cryogenic Valve
Configurations
Flowserve Worcester Controls cryogenic valves are available in four
basic body configurations; C44 (1/4"-2"), C44 Diverter (1/2"-2"), C4
Wafer (3"-6"), and C51 Flanged (3"-6"). All four valve styles offer the
same features: exclusive Polyfill seats, all stainless steel construction,
pressure-safe stem, extension bonnet lengths, positive ball cavity
relief and low operational torques.

C44 Brass or Stainless Steel

C44 Diverter

C44 The Worcester cryogenic valve incorporates many of the

features of the Series 44 line of valves. Three-piece construction
makes it easy to install, versatile in application and simple to
maintain. By removing three of the body bolts and loosening the
fourth, the valve may be swung out of line. In welded or soldered
piping systems, all four body bolts may be removed and the center
section lifted out for maintenance or replacement. A variety of
connections are available; screwed end, socket weld, butt weld and
solder/sweat ends.
C44 Diverter The cryogenic diverter valve accepts media through
the bottom inlet port and directs it to one of two side ports. There are
two ball porting configurations; Porting No. 1 directs flow from one
outlet port to the other through a 90 rotation. Porting No. 2 diverts
media from one outlet port to the other through a 180 rotation. With
Porting No. 2, the flow can be turned off by positioning the valve at
90 rotation. A Porting No.1 diverter valve can be automated
pneumatically or electrically. A Porting No. 2 valve may be operated
by a Series 75 electric actuator. Bottom connection options are the
same as standard valve (except butt weld).

C4 Wafer

C4 Flanged

Valves Without Stem Extensions

C4 Wafer The Worcester wafer is a flangeless cryogenic valve that

mounts between ANSI Class 150 or 300 flanges. The extension
construction is slightly different than the smaller C4 valves and
includes a two-piece pinned stem extension and solid ring 15%
glass-filled TFE stem seals and a virgin TFE body seal.
C51 Flanged The C51 is identical in internal construction to the
wafer cryogenic valve. The body is cast with ANSI Class 150 flanges.
Valves Without Stem Extension Valves in all four configurations are
available without stem extensions for intermittent cryogenic service.
Codes and Standards: Praxair Specification GS-38 and GS-40. Valves
may comply with ANSI B16.34 if ordered with V58 suffix. Brass and
wafer valve bodies are not covered by ANSI B16.34.

Helium Leak Test Valves are dry tested, internally pressurized with
80 psi helium and checked with a helium leak detector (Helium Mass
Spectrometer sensitive to 1 x 10-5 cc/sec.).
Vacuum Sealed After all testing has been completed, cryogenic
valves are capped with protective plastic end caps, stamped, tagged
and heat sealed in 4 mil polyethylene bags. This ensures valve
integrity up to the point of installation.
Custom Testing On request, special material, valve integrity,
tightness and operational testing can be performed with valves
submerged in liquid nitrogen.

Throttling Control of Cryogenics

Worcesters characterized metal-seated control valves for modulating
service offer many advantages over traditional globe valves for demanding
cryogenic applications.

Rotary Concept
Eliminates expensive high-maintenance stuffing box design of
rising stem globe valves.

Pneumatic and Electric Automation

Easy automation for on/off service is assured by our Series 39
pneumatic or Series 75 electric actuators. Both are backed by our
exclusive two-year warranty. The Series 39 actuator is the toughest
and most versatile rotary actuator available. Fail-safe capability, and
mechanical and proximity limit switches provide system safety and
valve position feedback. Refer to Brochure WCABR1003.
Mount a Series 75 electric actuator and you have a high-performance
control valve package specifically designed for computer or PLC
control. A variety of options allow you to select the performance
criteria and feedback information you desire. The Series 75 is available
with TYPE 1, 4, 7 or 9 enclosures. Refer to Brochure WCABR1014.

Pressure and Torque for Automated Valves

Before the actuator can be sized for any given valve application, the amount of
torque required by the valve must be determined. The operating torque of the
ball valve is influenced by a number of factors. Some are design and materials
related, others are application (service conditions) related. Design related factors
include the type of materials of the valve seats while application factors include
system pressure, media, and frequency of operation.
For complete valve operating torque data, refer to Worcesters Actuator Sizing
Manual (WCASS0001). This 16-page publication explains the concept of valve
torque, presents torque curves for each seat material, and provides correction
factors for media and the type of service such as on/off operation, cycle
frequency, etc.
Output torque charts for all Flowserve Worcester Controls actuators are provided
in the Acutator Sizing Manual.
