The Kerotest Manufacturing Corporation has
developed a method of eliminating the familiar valve stem leakage problem on 1/4
turn valves. This new product is the Hermetic Stem Seal Device. This device uses
a metal bellows around the stem instead of standard seals or packing.
The zero leakage feature greatly reduces valve
maintenance eliminating the need for costly repair parts, and labor and
additional repair to the nearby equipment and machinery that is damaged by the
leak. More importantly, process and plant downtime is reduced and the safety
problems associated with leakage and maintenance on critical service components
are eliminated.
The Hermetic Stem Seal Device is easily adapted to
most rotating, nonrising stem valves (including plug, ball and butterfly) and
can be used in 360 degree or quarter turn applications.
When this unique device is adapted to a ball valve
the final result is:
