Packing sets keep valves environmentally clean

A Garlock (Great Britain) product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Apr 22, 2002

A range of high performance control packings, designed to achieve long-term low emission performance from high cycling, fire safe control valves, is now available from Garlock (Great Britain).

A range of high performance control packings, designed to achieve long-term low emission performance from high cycling, fire safe control valves, is now available from Garlock (Great Britain).

Using graphite based die-formed rings, the CVP 9005 range of packings provides reliable sealing with the additional benefit of low actuation friction.

Using Garlock's well proven die-formed 'cup and cone' compression system for maintaining constant seal contact, CVP 9005 packings provide 'through life-time' high effiency sealing.

Sandwiching the high expansion graphite sealing elements of the packing set are high-density top and bottom lateral supports to reduce stem movement common in this type of valve.

To prevent damaging graphite buildup on the valve stem, common in high cycling valves typically with movements of less than 10% of maximum, wiper rings are positioned between each seal element.

The graphite content enables the packings to meet the two extremes of cryogenic and reducing or steam applications.

The CVP 9005 range will operate at temperatures from -200 to +455C in atmosphere and up to 650C in steam.

Unlike PTFE sealing materials the CVP 9005's graphite materials ensure the packing set is fire safe.

CVP 9005 Packing sets are available for a wide range of sizes available in increments of 0.025mm.

Sets are also available in split form, for when dismantling or breaking the stem actuator for installation is not an option.
