A fluid flow control device includes a body having an inlet connection, an outlet connection, and a discharge port. A supply path extends between the inlet connection and the outlet connection and a booster module is disposed within the body. The booster module includes a control element and an actuator element and defines an exhaust path extending between the outlet connection and the discharge port. A supply port is disposed within the booster module along the supply path between the inlet connection and the outlet connection and at least a first damping means operatively connected to the booster module.

Volume booster with stabilized trim

A process control valve includes a valve stem, a valve plug. The valve stem and the valve plug are attached to one another by an arrangement that includes a locking pin that passes through substantially aligned bores in the valve stem and the valve plug. The locking pin is positively retained mechanically and prevented from extending outside of the bores in the valve stem and the valve plug.

Control valve with retained pin for easy valve trim maintenance

A valve includes a fluid inlet passage having a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet passage, an orifice between the fluid inlet passage and the fluid outlet, and a moveable valve plug adapted to move with respect to the orifice to vary the flow of fluid between the fluid inlet passage and the fluid outlet passage. A movable valve stem is attached to the valve plug and a travel limiting device is attached to the valve stem. The travel limiting device permits the valve to be placed in one of a plurality of desired flow configurations.

Control valve flow adjustment device

A replaceable valve seat ring for a valve assembly has an annular ring body and an open flow passage extending through the ring body. A seating surface is provided on the ring body adjacent one end of the flow passage. A tool accepting region of the flow passage is formed concentric with and at least partially along the flow passage. The tool accepting region is adapted to receive a standard tool head therein for installing and removing the valve seat ring.

Replaceable valve seat ring with enhanced flow design

A valve with an integral means for bleeding internal pressure prior to separation of a bonnet for the valve from its engagement with the valve body, provided by a bore through the valve body. This allows the internal pressure of the valve to equalize with atmospheric pressure prior to complete disassembly of the bonnet from the valve body. The bore through the valve body also serves as a leak detector, by providing a path for fluids passing through the valve to leak to the exterior of the valve body in the event of a failure of the seal between the bonnet and the valve body, which can readily be detected by passersby upon inspection of the exposed end of the bore at the exterior of the valve body.
