| This section contains details on some 26 different slide valve Types. They are paired, with 13 Types being normally closed (N/C), each with a corresponding normally open (N/O) Type. All these slide valves are pilot-operated, three port, two position valves with a spring return action. A major feature in the design of these slide valves is the elimination of the continuous leakage characteristic of conventional lapped-face spool valves. The valves all incorporate special high pressure seals which prevent leakage and all valve slides have a ‘block before bleed’ action. Construction materials comply with NACE Standard MR-01-75. |
