Abstract: A self-centering valve adapter connection assembly includes a first equipment flange that is connected to a second equipment flange with an adapter ring. The adapter ring includes a first longitudinal flange with a tapered inner surface and a cylindrical outer surface. The adapter ring aids in centering the first and second equipment flanges while smoothing a fluid flow corridor between the first equipment flange and the second equipment flange.

Abstract: A pressure regulating device including a valve body, an actuator assembly coupled to the valve body and including a diaphragm, a valve seat disposed in the valve body, a control assembly operatively connected to the diaphragm to move responsive to movement of the diaphragm, and a travel stop. The control assembly includes a control element that is movable, relative to the valve seat, between an open position, wherein the control element is spaced from the valve seat, and a closed position, wherein the control element sealingly engages the valve seat. The travel stop is configured to engage the control element to stop movement of the control element upon reaching the open position. The travel stop is adjustable to change the open position of the control element, such that a wide open flow capacity of the pressure regulating device can be adjusted.

Abstract: A fluid regulator having a valve body defining an inlet, an outlet, a loading port, an access port, and a loading chamber disposed within the valve body and coupled to the loading port. A valve assembly is at least partially disposed between the inlet and the outlet and in communication with the loading chamber and is adapted to cooperate with the loading chamber to adjust fluid flow at the outlet by adjusting a fluid flow rate between the inlet and the outlet. A restrictor is at least partially disposed within the access port and the loading chamber and the valve assembly are adapted to be responsive to a change in loading pressure such that a modified rate is achieved and the restrictor is adapted to adjust a response speed in which the modified rate is achieved.

Abstract: A cage for a control valve has a circumferential wall having inner and outer surfaces, a plurality of first passages formed through the wall, and a plurality of second passages formed through the wall. The plurality of first passages each include an upper portion and a lower portion that is tapered in a direction away from the upper portion. The plurality of second passages are positioned between adjacent lower portions of first passages.

Abstract: A fluid flow valve includes a valve body, a loading chamber disposed within the valve body, a valve assembly, and a restrictor unit. The valve body defines a flow inlet, a flow outlet, and a loading chamber inlet. The loading chamber is coupled to the loading chamber inlet. The valve assembly is at least partially disposed between the flow inlet and the flow outlet and is in communication with the loading chamber. The valve assembly is adapted to cooperate with the loading chamber adjust fluid flow at the flow outlet by adjusting a fluid flow rate between the flow inlet and the flow outlet. The restrictor unit is at least partially disposed within the loading chamber inlet. The loading chamber and the valve assembly are adapted to be responsive to a change in loading pressure to achieve a modified fluid flow rate. The restrictor unit is adapted to adjust a response speed in which the modified fluid flow rate is achieved.

Abstract: A bi-directional hose break-away assembly includes a first adapter section and a second adapter section that are operatively connected by a hose section. A first valve assembly is disposed within the first adapter section and a second valve assembly is disposed within the second adapter section. The first and second valve assemblies are operatively connected by a stem connector so that the first and second valve assemblies will close in the event a maximum tensile load is exceeded, thereby preventing spillage of liquefied chemicals.
