Trim of Valves
safety documents materials

societies pipes flanges

The removable and replaceable valve internal parts that come in contact with the fittings valves bolts gaskets
flow medium are collectively termed as Valve trim. These parts include valve
seat(s), disc, glands, spacers, guides, bushings, and internal springs. The valve equipment specials steel
body, bonnet, packing, et cetera that also come in contact with the flow medium are
not considered valve trim. steam civil others

A Valve's trim performance is determined by the disk and seat interface and the
relation of the disk position to the seat. Because of the trim, basic motions and flow
control are possible. In rotational motion trim designs, the disk slides closely past the
seat to produce a change in flow opening. In linear motion trim designs, the disk lifts
perpendicularly away from the seat so that an annular orifice appears.

Valve trim parts may be constructed of assorted materials because of the different
properties needed to withstand different forces and conditions. Bushings and
Automatic Dosa Making
packing glands do not experience the same forces and conditions as do the valve
disc and seat(s).

Flow-medium properties, chemical composition, pressure, temperature, flow rate,
velocity and viscosity are some of the important considerations in selecting suitable

trim materials. Trim materials may or may not be the same material as the valve
body or bonnet.
