TECHNICAL INFORMATION BuTech designs all pressure-containing equipment to meet or exceed the applicable requirements of Section VIII, Division1 or Division 2 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable requirements of B31.3, ASME Code for Pressure Piping, maintaining a minimum safety factor of three-to-one (3:1). Furthermore, we believe that the design and manufacture of these components in accordance with this code meets or exceeds the requirements of numerous other national and international codes, specifications and requirements. BuTech presents this section as a guideline in assisting of proper selection of material, design features, and options for valves, fittings, and tubing that require precise control of liquid and gas flows. All charts and tables are for reference only because of the many process variables. BuTech s technical staff is available to assist in any questions concerning this information, or assist in selecting BuTech product..516.562.688.516.562 Flow Q (GPM).688 Q = 963 Cv (P1 - P2)(P1 + P2) SG TF Topic Conversion Tables Flow Formulas Material vs Pressure Rating Pressure Drop Curves Pressure vs Bend Radius Pressure vs Temperature Curves Pressure/Temperature Rating Guide Page Tech-11 Tech-8 Tech-4 Tech-9 Tech- Tech-6 Tech-2 Tech-9 Page Tech-1 2121 EBCO Drive, Suite 1 Erie, PA 166 USA Ph: (814) 833-494 Fax: (814) 833-2612 E-mail: hq@butech-valve.com

PRESSURE/TEMPERATURE RATING GUIDE Information in this rating guide is furnished for reference in approximating the pressure/temperature capabilities of BuTech valves with various options. To determine approximate ratings, the following factors should be considered: Refer to individual sections to determine pressure rating of component at room temperature. Refer to Pressure/Temperature Rating Curve on page Tech-3 to determine pressure at desired temperature. Refer to tubing section for pressure ratings of standard tubing at various temperatures to 8 o F (427 C). Note maximum temperature ratings for needle valves with various packing options in the table below. Note temperature information checklist on page Tech-3.

PRESSURE VS TEMPERATURE RATING CURVES Curves and ratings presented here are average values for reference only. These values can be significantly affected by pressure and temperature charactistics of trim materials, stem packing materials or o-ring, and connection type. Other options such as extended stuffing box will be required to achieve the maximum temperature rating. See pages Tech-2 through Tech-3 for details.

PRESSURE VS TEMPERATURE RATING CURVES Example: Determine the pressure rating of a 1/4" UV valve constructed of Hastelloy C276 with an operating temperature of 6 o F. From the Material vs Pressure Rating chart on page Tech-4, the maximum pressure rating for a UV valve constructed of Hastelloy C276 would be 21, PSI at room temperature. Turn to the Pressure vs Temperature rating curves on pages Tech-6 and Tech-7. Find 6 o F on the X-axis of the Hastelloy C-276 chart. Follow the line up to read a value of 95%. Multiplying the room temperature rating by this reduction factor (21, x.95) yields a rating of 19,9 PSI at 6 o F.

Coefficient of flow (Cv) of a valve is the volume of water in U.S. gallons per minute at room temperature, which will flow through the valve with the stem fully open, with a pressure drop of 1 PSI across the valve. Cv is the valve sizing factor that permits selection of the appropriate valve to meet the flow requirements of a given fluid system. The Cv values shown on the technical page of the previous sections represent the full-open Cv for that particular valve. In determining estimated capacity, this Cv value should be used in the following formulas.

PRESSURE DROP CURVES Theoretical Pressure Drop and Fluid Velocity vs Flow for BuTech Medium and High Pressure Tubing (based on water) To determine the expected pressure drop per foot of tube length: 1. Select the appropriate curves based on tube I.D. 2. Find system flow rate on X-axis and follow graph vertically until it reaches the solid line corresponding with the tube I.D. 3. Move horizontally in the chart to read the pressure drop per foot on the Y-axis. 4. Multiply this value by the total tube length to obtain total pressure loss. 5. Multiply value from step 4 by the compressibility correction factor from the chart at the right to correct for system pressure above atmospheric. To determine average fluid velocity, follow the same procedure except use the dashed line. System Pressure (KSI) 6 1. 1.2 1.4 1.6 1.8 1.
