V250 Valve
Design V250 Rotary Control Valve
The Design V250 Hi-Ball rotary control valve (figure 1) is designed for heavy-duty throttling and on-off applications. Depending on size, this valve installs between two CL600 or CL900 pipeline flanges. The Design V250 valve is available with a single ball seal, flow ring, or dual-seal construction. Single-seal constructions are used in tight shutoff applications; the flow ring construction can satisfy higher temperature requirements. The dual-seal construction, with a seal in the inlet and outlet openings, is used in bidirectional flow-shutoff applications. The Design V250 Hi-Ball valve is typically used for throttling and controlled flow applications in gas transmission lines, gas distribution, or liquid pipelines.

Features
DHigh Pressure Drop Capabilities—Depending on the construction, a Design V250 valve is capable
of a maximum static pressure differential of 103 bar (1500 psi) at 82°C (180°F) for CL600, and 155 bar (2250 psi) for CL900 constructions at 38°C (100°F) for LCC steel and CF8M (316 stainless steel).
DEfficient Operation—Tapered-polygon
ball-to-shaft connection (see figure 5) and clamped splined actuator connection (see figure 6) remove lost motion or deadband from the drive train for throttling control applications.
D Excellent Flow Control—Reduced ball port design provides a modified equal percentage flow characteristic and an excellent response characteristic.

DTight Shutoff—Shutoff with the Design V250 ball seal is 0.0001 percent of maximum capacity.
DGreater Capacities—Design V250 ball valve construction offers greater capacities than conventional globe valves for both compressible and incompressible fluids.
DSour Service Capability—Materials are available for applications handling sour service. These materials comply with the requirements of NACE MR0175-2002.
DLong Service Life—Pressure-balanced drive shaft design with PTFE-lined bearings and pressure-assisted shaft sealing arrangement provides for a long life of reliable service.
DMinimum Maintenance—Two-piece ball and shaft assembly allows for complete trim overhaul; parts replacement is kept to a minimum.
DExcellent Environmental Capabilities—The optional live loaded packing system is designed with very smooth shaft surfaces and live loading to provide excellent sealing.
