Heating Ventilating Air Conditioning Guide 1938 Sectional Committee B16. Tables 10 and 11 give these dimensions for welding-neck flanges suitable for 150 and 300 lb per sq in. gage pressure. VALVES Valves are made with both threaded and flanged ends for screwed and bolted connections just as are pipe fittings. . The material used for valves of small size is generally brass or bronze for low pressures and forged steel for high pressures, while in the larger sizes either cast-iron, cast-steel or some of the steel alloys are employed. Chapter 18. Pipe, Fittings. Welding the valve is open or closed, although space limitations may prevent its use. The globe valve is less expensive to manufacture than the gate valve, but its peculiar construction offers a high resistance to flow and may prevent complete drainage of the pipe line. These objections are of particular importance in heating work. Check valves are automatic in operation and permit flow in only one direction, depending for operation on the difference in pressure between ____ * mjrvsnu UJMKNSIONS OP STEEL WELDING NeCK FLANGES FOR Maximum Steam Service Pressure op 150 Lb per Sq In.

End Closure Practically all iron or steel valves intended for steam or water work are bronze-mounted or trimmed. Brass, bronze, and iron valves are generally designed for standard or extra heavy service, the former being used up to 125 lb and the latter up to 250 lb saturated steam working pressure, although most manufacturers also make valves for medium pressure up to 175 lb steam working pres sure. The more common types are gate-valves or straightway valves, globe valves, angle valves, check valves and automatic valves, such as reducing and back-pressure valves. Gate valves are the most frequently used of all valves since in their open position the resistance to flow is a minimum. These valves may be secured with either a rising or a non-rising stem, although in the smaller sizes the rising stem is more commonly'used. The rising stem valve is desirable because the positions of the handle and stem indicate whether 370 Nominal Pcpb Sob Diameter OF Flange Thickness OF Flo. Min. Diameter Of Hub Hub Dum.

Valves commonly used for controlling steam or water supply to radi ators constitute a special class since they are manufactured to meet heating system requirements. These valves are generally of the angle type and are usually made of brass. Graduations on the heads or lever 371 X
