Hex Valve Introduces the HM77 Series
The HM77 Five Valve Manifold combines two shutoff valves, two equalizing valves, and a vent/calibration valve into a single, compact assembly. Accuracy is paramount in the upstream and downstream hydrocarbon measurement world. When expensive liquid or gas changes ownership, precise measurement is critical.
The larger 3/8" bore smoothes out the transmission of primary element pneumatic signals by reducing pulsation induced spikes to the transmitter improving accuracy.
The smallest leakage from the high side of the manifold to the low side can lead to lost revenue due to inaccurate measurement. The double equalizing arrangement insures against measurement error that can occur from equalizer leakage between high and low pressure connections, making the HM77 ideal for custody transfer applications.
Features:
- User friendly design developed after consultation with gas field instrument technicians.
- Angled, offset equalizer valves simplify transmitter calibration and technician operation - no bruised knuckles!
- New longer body - to enable easy installation of flange bolts without lifting, or holding the meter; unencumbered installation of test port calibration nipples or valves
- New mounting taps for Universal bracket installation
- Flanged inlet versions have 1/4" FNPT tapped counter bore to increase flexibility of inventory
- 3/8" true bore insures pneumatic signal accuracy
- Carbon-filled Teflon soft seats provides positive shutoff
- O-ring or packet bonnets for any application
- New, 3 configurations: nptxnpt, nptxflange, and flangexflange.
