Steam jackets for valve bodies

January 2003 Valves, Actuators & Pump Control Integrated Solutions Products & Solutions

Mitech's steam jackets are designed to keep the valve body at a set temperature. A hot fluid, such as steam, is circulated around the valve body keeping the fluid inside both warm and in a liquid state. The hub end inline globe control valve body is used as a base and is modified to incorporate the steam jacket. Flange ends become integral, while the flange drilling incorporates blind tapped holes. The bodies are rated in accordance with ANSI B16.34 - 1998.
