D4 Valve

Fisherr D4 Control Valve Assembly

The Fisher D4 control valve is a compact, rugged globe
valve designed primarily for high-pressure throttling
applications using either pneumatic or electric control.
This valve is ideal for use on pressure and flow control
applications within the oil and gas production industry.
The D4 is an excellent control valve for high-pressure
separators, scrubbers, and other processing
equipment. These valves are especially useful for
either throttling or on/off control of liquids or gases
which are gritty, sticky, or which have a tendency to
builduponinternalvalveparts.

If the control valve requires maintenance, the trim and
packing can be maintained by removing the deep-bore
hammer nut and lifting the actuator/bonnet assembly
off the valve without disassembling the actuator.

Features

Electric and Pneumatic

 Safer Bonnet / Valve Body Connection– Unique

design provides additional protection if disassembly
of bonnet/valve body connection is inadvertently
started while there is still pressure in the valve body.
Pins mounted in the valve bonnet help ensure the
bonnet disengages from the valve body as the
hammer nut is removed, while the threads are still
engaged.

 Heavy-Duty Guiding–Massive guiding (figures 1 and

2) positively aligns the valve plug in the seat ring for
reliable service. The screwed-in seat ring completely
encloses the seat ring gasket.

 Live-loaded Packing System–The packing system

provides an improved stem seal to help prevent the
loss of valuable or hazardous process fluids or gases.
It features Fisher ENVIRO-SEALt packing
technology to provide reduced packing
maintenance.

Features (continued)

Electric and Pneumatic

 NACE Constructions–NACE compatible trim is

available with the D4 control valve. These
constructions meet the metallurgical requirements
of NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156.

 Quick-Change Valve Plug–Removable groove pin

allows quick, easy valve plug replacement.

 Severe Service Capability with Tungsten Carbide

Trim–D4 valves are available with tungsten carbide
trim for erosive service. This trim is designed
specifically for severe service applications in the oil
and gas industry. Durable tungsten carbide trim
may benefit your application by wearing better and
lasting longer.

 Easy Installation–Compact design allows

installation where space is a premium. Screwed
valve bodies feature compact face-to-face
dimensions while flanged valve bodies conform to
ISA-75 standards for maximum versatility.

Electric

 Low Power Consumption-- The Fisher easy-Drive

electric actuator operates with 12 or 24VDC and
less than 0.1 watt hours per operation, using
Modbus,4-20mA,1-5VDC,ordrycontactcontrol
signals.

 Low Temperature-- Theeasy-Driveelectricactuator

design allows use in ambient temperatures as low
as -20C(-4F) without use of a heater.

 Easy Installation--The compact design allows

installation where space is a premium. Fisher
easy-Drive calibrates by simply opening and closing
the valve.

 Remote Monitoring and Configuration-- Loss of

signal position is programmable over Modbus.

Pneumatic

 Easy Maintenance–Hammer nut bonnet/body joint

allows repair or maintenance with a minimum of
tools, without removing the valve body from the
piping system. Seat ring can be removed with the
same service tools used with a Fisher D valve.

 Integral Bonnet Flange– Bonnet has an integral

flange that accepts hammer nut force when making
the bonnet-to-body connection. There are no snap
rings subject to possible failure in sour service or in
atmospheric corrosion.

 Standard Trim for Throttling or On-Off Service–

Micro-Form trim is standard for throttling or on-off
service at no extra cost.

 Application Flexibility–Choices of port diameters up

to 31.8 mm (1.25 inches), end connections, and
trim materials suit these valves to many
applications, including sour service.

 Low Temperature Materials--Valve construction

(-40F) for the pneumatic actuator.

Installation

D4 control valves may be installed in any position, but
normally the actuator is vertical and above the valve.
