Abstract

A modular valve assembly includes a bonnetless main core, a first releasable connection, and a second releasable connection. A first inlet end connection includes a first inlet end flow passage. The first inlet end flow passage includes a curved portion that changes a direction of the first inlet end flow passage between 30 and 120 degrees. A second inlet end connection includes a second inlet end flow passage. The second inlet end connection passage is substantially straight. A first outlet end connection includes a first outlet end flow passage. The first outlet end flow passage includes an angled portion. A second outlet end connection passage includes a second outlet end flow passage. The first and second inlet end connections and the first and second outlet end connections are rapidly reconfigurable to form a variety of valve configurations.
