PORTER Flow Control Valves - Specifications

 
 

Peak performance in low flow liquid and gas applications
Porter Metering Valves are designed for extremely precise control in low flow gas and liquid applications. They are available as valve cartridges, integrally mounted in flowmeters and in-line valve assemblies with straight or angle patterned bodies. All in-line valves assemblies have 1/8" female NPT inlet and outlet ports.

Standard Cartridge Valves
Porter’s Standard Cartridge Valves (SCV) are economical, multi-purpose valve assemblies. Available in 3 needle tapers, they are ideal for a wide spectrum of low flow applications.

Capacities for STANDARD CARTRIDGE CONTROL VALVES

Porter Standard Cartridge Valves are available with the exclusive Torque Guard Stop Mechanism. Torque Guard eliminates stem damage caused by over tightening of the valve at shut-off.

The Torque Guard System consists of a specially designed knob with a stop pin pressed into an aluminum knob insert and a machined detail on the packing nut that engages the stop pin and prevents clockwise rotation beyond a predetermined point. During final test, the knob is adjusted so that the stop pin and packing nut engage precisely at shut-off. This combination eliminates the possibility of over tightening and the resultant stem damage.
