G.M. Blow Down Valves

G.M. Parallel Slide Blow Off Valves

The G.M. Parallel Slide Blow Off Valves are engineered to offer robust and reliable performance, particularly in applications involving steam and water systems. Designed for long-term use, these valves ensure efficient flow and safety under a wide range of operating conditions.

Key Features:

  • Material:

    • The body is crafted from durable Bronze, providing excellent resistance to corrosion and ensuring longevity.
    • Working Parts made from Monel or 18/8% Cr/Ni Stainless Steel (ASTM A351 Gr.CF8) guarantee strength, durability, and resistance to extreme temperatures and corrosive environments.

  • Operation:

    • Rack & Pinion Operated for precise and smooth valve control, enhancing ease of use.
    • The design allows for full opening with only half a turn of the operating key, speeding up operation.

  • Pattern:

    • Heavy Pattern construction ensures the valve’s ability to withstand demanding industrial environments and pressures.

  • Sizes Available:

    • Various sizes from 1″ to 2.1/2″, offering flexibility for different system requirements.

  • End Connection:

    • Flanged BS-10 Table ‘H’ Ends for a secure and leak-free connection in high-pressure systems.

  • Operating Key:

    • Comes with an Operating Key for easy manual operation of the valve.

  • Test Pressure:

    • Maximum Blow-Off Pressure (BOP) of 250 PSIG, ensuring reliability in high-pressure applications.

  • Temperature Range:

    • Capable of operating at temperatures up to 220°C, suitable for various industrial conditions.

Design Highlights:

  • Unobstructed Flow:

    • Features Parallel Slide Valve Technology, providing an unobstructed straight-through flow, improving efficiency and reducing flow resistance.

  • Spring Mechanism:

    • Includes a spring sandwiched between two discs, ensuring dirt or foreign matter is removed from the disc faces at low or zero pressure, maintaining optimal valve performance.

  • Effective Closure:

    • Uses upstream pressure to force the disc face at the outlet against its mating body seat, ensuring an effective and reliable seal.

  • Safety Features:

    • Safety locking guard in the gland ensures the box operating key cannot be removed unless the valve is closed, adding an extra layer of operational safety.
    • Equipped with a pinion stop to limit rotary movement and prevent excessive wear on the rack and pinion, further ensuring operational reliability.

Certification:

  • Comes with an IBR Test Certificate in FORM III-C, verifying compliance with relevant industrial and regulatory standards.

Applications:

Ideal for use in steam and water systems, the G.M. Parallel Slide Blow Off Valves are widely applicable in power plants, boiler systems, and other industrial settings where reliable and efficient flow control is critical.
