DIRECTIONAL CONTROL VALVES

Type 14550

Four cam-operated modules – positive detented selections at 45° intervals.
Dynamically biased towards closing – seal becomes tighter as pressure rises. .
Suitable for a wide range of fluids – up to 690 bar (10,000 psi).
Torque to operate handle is light throughout the pressure range.
Made with 316 stainless steel.

Comprising four cam-operated modules, each containing a partially balanced plunger which is unseated when the handle is operated. In the closed position, the plunger makes a leak-free seal with the seat. Being dynamically biased towards closing, the seal becomes tighter as pressure rises.

A module can be readily withdrawn from the base of the valve body for servicing or renewing the seat or seals. Total handle movement of 90° gives positive detented selections at 45° intervals.

The valve is suitable for use with a wide range of fluids and is designed for working pressures of up to 10,000 psi. Torque required to operate the handle remains light throughout the pressure range.

Subsea versions are available – position selected by ROV – springs to centre if not positioned otherwise.
