SLEEVED PLUG VALVES — SPECIAL SERVICEFIRE SAFE SLEEVED PLUG VALVESFluoroSeal® Sleeved <strong>Plug</strong> Valves with the Fire Safe top seal have been testedand certified by an independent laboratory to the requirements of API 607, FifthEdition (ISO 10497-5) for external leakage.The FluoroSeal® Fire Safe design utilizes a PTFE sleeve and PTFE diaphragmas the external sealing components under normal conditions. Should thesecomponents be destroyed by fire, external leakage is prevented by:1. A secondary flexible graphite seal ring encapsulated and compressedbetween the metal diaphragm and the machined counterbore in thevalve body2. A flexible graphite delta ring encapsulated and compressed between theunique shaped metal diaphragm and the machined plug stemFluoroSeal® Fire Safe Valves also utilize a vented plug designed to relievepressure buildup resulting from expansion of the service media within the plug,due to elevated temperatures caused by fire. The pressure is relieved to theupstream side, providing a preferred flow direction indicated by an arrow onthe valve cover.CoverCombination Formed Metal Diaphragmand Static EliminatorPTFE DiaphragmFlexible Graphite Delta RingPLUG-ANSI-DIN-R002-2009Flexible Graphite Ring1/8” (3.18 mm) Vent Holeon Upstream Side of <strong>Plug</strong>Body<strong>Plug</strong>Fire Safe Assemblywww.fluoroseal<strong>valves</strong>.comBD5
