Purchasing a valve cage is a crucial decision because it is an integral component of a control valve's structure. A control valve with a quality valve cage helps prevent hidden faults and instability.
There are both balanced and unbalanced cage-guided valves available, depending on the purpose. Balanced valves typically have superior shutdown characteristics and greater capacity than single-ported valves of the same line size. In addition, placement is simplified.
Balanced cage-guided globe valves are suited for situations with a significant pressure drop. They have a plug head with ports drilled from the top to the bottom, allowing fluid pressure on both sides of the plug to equalize. Additionally, the balanced pressure effect decreases actuator size.
Plugs for cage-guided globe valves that are not balanced are available. The disparate plug sizes provide the imbalanced force. In addition to the size of the plug, the differential pressure across the plug also contributes to the strain on the plug. This force can be considerable in specific circumstances. In these instances, the force applied to the top plug must be equivalent to the force applied to the bottom plug. This can be accomplished via balance holes. Nonetheless, balancing holes necessitate extra seals to prevent plug-cage leaking.
In the process of sizing and selecting a control valve, one of the parameters that must be addressed is the Turndown in a valve cage. Turndown is the ratio between a valve's greatest usable flow and its minimum controlled flow. It is also a measurement of the valve's ability to control the flow.
Another aspect that must be considered while selecting a control valve is its rangeability. The rangeability reflects the projected minimum flowrate at low loads. It is measured in a laboratory under specified conditions. Manufacturers make claims regarding the rangeability of specific control valve types.
The Becker T-Ball* design is a rotary control valve that offers improved protection and performance. It prevents potentially harmful pressure imbalances and reduces maintenance requirements. In some of the most demanding applications, it provides precise surge prevention.
The Turndown of a valve cage is the ratio of the flow rate through the set position of the valve to the minimum controllable flow. To compute this figure, the flow rate of the system must be known. Additionally, the system's pressure drop must be determined.
Using an oversized control valve might lead to numerous issues. These valves are extremely sensitive to operating conditions, which can lead to a variety of problems, such as unstable control. Additionally, oversized valves are difficult to adjust to the required flow rate. When employing an oversized valve, even the smallest change in valve position can result in a substantial change in flow. Additionally, oversized valves might cause unnecessary wear.
Oversized control valves can cause issues with both big and little valves. Oversized valves result in a high number of strokes because they cannot accurately achieve the flow setpoint. Additionally, they render the controller less stable and less flexible.
Because their flow capacities vary widely, oversized valves also cause complications. This indicates that they cannot reach the requisite flow pressure to fully open the valve. They have little holes as well. This implies that when the valve is fully open, a great deal of pressure can be generated across it, which increases the friction between the valve seal and the plug. This can lead to excessive valve packing wear.
