1-2. Major components of control valves
Each control valve is comprised of two major components, namely, a valve body and an
actuator. Various combinations of valve body and actuator are available to meet various type
of uses with different valve sizes, pressure ratings, types of connections, types of materials, and
actuator sizes.
(For details of specifications, refer to Specification Sheets SS2-8113-0200, -0210, .0300, -0310,
-0400, and -2600.)
1-3. Structures
The structures of typical control valves are shown is Figure 1-1 through Figure 1-3.
The valve body is connected to the bonnet with stud bolts and nuts. A gasket is (two gaskets
are) provided at the connection Chapter to seal against the internal fluid or to let the valve
body make up a pressure vessel. The valve plug is supported by the guide ring and cage, and
driven by the actuator. The actuator has multiple springs and a diaphragm, and converts the
pneumatic control signal into a mechanical (positional) control signal with which to position
the valve plug.
