HSV086 Series

General

HSV086

The HSV086 series consists of a number of effective safety shut-off valves for use in gas transmission systems, gas distribution networks and industrial gas pressure regulating systems.

The SV086, the predecessor of the HSV086, has demonstrated its quality and usability for more than 25 years. Compared to the SV086, the HSV086 has been improved and modified according to current technology.

The HSV086 series consists of two types of safety shut-off valves:

  • HSV086, the standard model with nominal diameters of 1”-12”
  • HSVS086, with a two-stage release mechanism in nominal diameters > 16”

Both types offer overpressure and underpressure protection. The HSV086 and HSVS086 feature modular construction and are supplied with a standard control mechanism and sensing element. Both are suitable for operating pressures up to 100 bar. Nominal diameters up to 12” are available in pressure classes up to ANSI 2500.

HSVS086

In comparison with the standard model, the HSVS086 is equipped with a two-stage release mechanism and an extra valve bushing.

The two-stage release mechanism features the option of controlling greater capacities while maintaining accuracy by means of an extra reduction of disturbance forces on the control mechanism. Another advantage is the increase in the maximum closing member lift that uses the same standard control mechanism.

In addition, it is easier to commission and maintain because, in the closed position, the first stage can be activated independently from the second stage, thus making it possible to set the mechanism and carry out fine adjustments without activating the valve body assembly.

Operation

HSV086

The HSV086 safeguards against exceeding a maximum pressure and falling beneath a minimum pressure. The protection against underpressure serves also as a protection against a diaphragm rupture.

Protection against overpressure:

When the pressure to be safeguarded (1) in the sensing element (3) exceeds the maximum value set with the springs (5) and (6), the diaphragm (2) is pushed downwards and turns the lever (8) around the pivot (9). The pin (7) is pushed upwards, turning the balance (10) to the right side around the pivot (11).

When the pressure to be safeguarded (1) in the sensing element (3) exceeds the maximum value set with the springs (5) and (6), the diaphragm (2) is pushed downwards and turns the lever (8) around the pivot (9). The pin (7) is pushed upwards, turning the balance (10) to the right side around the pivot (11).

This results in the downward aimed switch pin (18) eventually stops being supported by the balance (10), causing the switch lever (16) to turn on its shaft. This shaft (17) is the supporting point for the closing member with closing member stem (20). When the switch lever (16) has rotated a 90o turn, the closing member (20) closes due to the closing spring (19) located in the valve body. In the closed position, the pressure behind the closing member will be reduced to the outlet pressure. The pressure difference between inlet and outlet pressure provides an additional closing force to the closing member (20).The safety device is now locked. The closing member will also remain shut even if the safeguarded pressure (1) drops below the maximum value.

Protection against underpressure:

When the safeguarded pressure (1) in the sensing element (3) is lower than the trip value set with the spring (6), the diaphragm (2) shifts upwards. Using its spring cup (4), the top part of the adjusting spring (5) comes to rest against the housing of the control mechanism and no longer against the diaphragm (2), causing the pressure for switching to be determined by the spring (6) alone.

The lever (8) will now push the pin (12) downwards, causing the balance (10) to rotate to the right, just as when maximum pressure is exceeded. The actions of the switch lever (16) and the closing member (20) are similar to those when maximum pressure is exceeded.

The closing member shuts in the same way in the event of a diaphragm rupture.

Unlocking

After correcting the failure or malfunction and a pressure equalisation across the closing member (20), the mechanism can only be openend manually. This is accomplished by pushing down the lifting arm (13), turning it to the right and simultaneously pushing the reset button (15). After the mechanism has been opened, a spring pushes the lifting arm back into starting position and the relatching device (14) is dis¬engaged.

HSVS086

The release operation for the first stage is identical to that of the HSV086. The difference is the release of a second stage. If the standard control mechanism (8) releases, the lever (10) will rotate to the right around the pivot (4). A rotation of approximately 15o causes the closing member stem (5) to no longer be supported by shaft (2), causing the closing member (6) to shut. The closing member and the closing member stem are pushed into the seat ring by gravity and by the closing spring (11).

Unlocking the second stage after correcting the failure or malfunction and the pressure equalisation across the closing member, occurs after unlocking the standard control mechanism (8). The valve (6) is easy to open, using the hand wheel (1).
