Ask anyone which brandof ball valve continues tostand the test of time, andthe answer you will hearmost often is JAMESBURYvalves. For over half acentury, JAMESBURYvalves have consistentlybeen the most preferredbrand for ball valves. It’snot hard to see why. Afterall, we just about inventedsealing technology withthe introduction of theflexible-lip seat design.More than any otherinnovation, thisrevolutionized theindustry and, perhapsmore important, valvedependability.

Unmatched Performance And Reliability.

Our flexible-lip seat designrevolutionized valvedependability.

JAMESBURY technology leadership didn’tstop there.

Common Platform Valves Offering Uncommon Benefits.

Longest Cycle LifeAccelerated laboratory life cycle tests show100 to 1000 times improvement overprevious models, depending on the media.Imagine the impact on your uptime andmaintenance costs.

Significant InventoryReductionsNow you can reduce your inventory by upto 80%. Modular / interchangeable designmeans that internal parts, trim parts,accessories and actuation choices are thesame for all of these valves. Only one partskit is needed for a given size of valve.

Easier AutomationModular actuation / linkage choices andprecise alignment make automating thesecommon platform valves easy. In fact,technicians should be able to automatethese valves 40% faster.

Code ComplianceJAMESBURY valves are engineered to meet most all of the industry’s importantstandards. Most important are complianceor approvals from ANSI, ISO, BS, MSS, API, ISA,FM, UL, ULC, CSA, CRN, NACE and PED.

One look – both insideand out – and you can seethat next generationJAMESBURY valves aremuch more than youraverage valve. You’ll noticea streamlined commonversion theme thatintegrates five valves thatmake them look totallydifferent than past models.Inside, there are evengreater improvements.

Simplified Modular DesignBy applying platform thinking to our 1/4”-2”line of JAMESBURY valves, we were able tomake all of the internal and trim parts of thevalves the same. The only differences are inthe bodies, caps and inserts. This makes iteasier, and more cost-effective, to changeparts, which is especially beneficial whendoing repairs. Since the parts are similar,there is no need to have numerous valverepair kits on hand. In most cases, only asingle repair kit is needed for all of yourJAMESBURY valves, reducing your costs. Themodular design is also beneficial when itcomes to linkages for mounting actuators.With these new valves, users can stock farfewer linkages, thereby reducing inventory,costs and complexity of automation.

Live-Loaded Stem Seal (Figure 2)The platform valves are equipped with alive-loaded stem seal. Thanks to itsinnovative design, users benefit from severaltime- and money-saving advantages.• Corrosion-resistant stainless steel washers

store energy so stem seal accommodatesmore cycles without requiring users tomake many adjustments.

• When adjustments are necessary, ourcompression plate design permits them tobe made with relative ease.

Redefining State-Of-The-Art.

• The stem bearings are designed to managethrust loads efficiently, eliminating metalcontact and eventual failure.

Improved Sealing (Figure 3)Our new patent-pending stem seal design isbeyond anything the competition can offer.It is engineered with three sealing zones – aparticularly important feature on smallervalves where there is not a lot of roomforinnovation. We shaped the stem seal toallow the fitting of a compression plate onour smaller valves. This new patent-pendingstem seal design is utilized in theJAMESBURY 1/4” - 2” platform products lines:

• Three zones of contact that, by the verynature of their unique design, promotessuper tight sealing.

• A stem that is fully guided so leak paths donot form during operation – adding to thevalve’s performance and dependability.

• Fugitive emission standards that have beentested to ISO/CD 15484, thereby meetingimportant Class A requirements.

• No stem seal adjustments needed afterthermal and pressure cycles, reducingoperator intervention and, as a result, costs.

The Advantages of OurCommon Platform Valves Add Up.When we undertook the task of engineeringthe next-generation of JAMESBURY valves,we explored all options. We realized that themost important areas to improve uponwould be those that would make a practicaldifference and save you money. So wefocused on:• Improved sealing in both the stem and

seat.• Modular design for interchangeable

components and lower costs.• Simpler automation, across the board.• Ability to meet ANSI and other critical

industry standards.

For more than fivedecades, JAMESBURY ballvalves have been theperformance standardagainst which all othershave been measured - andnow we’ve raised the baragain. Our new commonplatform design for 1/4”through 2” ball valvesredefines best-in-classwith evolutionaryimprovements that willincrease your processuptime and reducemaintenance costs.

Our New Design Concept MultipliesPerformance Benefits.

By applying platform thinking to the keycomponents of our JAMESBURY valveassemblies – focusing on the all-importantareas of ball, seat and sealing technologies –we were able to engineer and deliver nextgeneration ball valve performance. Solutionsthat offer you vastly improved stem sealingand cycle life. In fact, depending on theapplication, the cycle life of these new valvescan be as much as 100 times greater thanthat of competitive valves.

Our next-generation JAMESBURYcommon platform valves include thefollowing products:• 4000 Series Ball Valves• 7000 Series Ball Valves (1/2" – 2")• 9000 Series Ball Valves (1/2" – 1-1/2")• ELIMINATOR™ Ball Valves• "A" Style Ball Valves

Proven XTREME seat materialexpands performance boundaries.

Longer-LastingLife-cycle improvements have beendocumented up to 100%.

Excellent Chemical ResistanceChemical compatibility is superior to filledPTFE, Delrin, and PEEK.

Inventory ReductionExpanded performance range cuts the needfor multiple valves and spare part types.

Cost Reduction Opportunities.JAMESBURY valves with XTREME sealingtechnology offer numerous opportunities forlong-term cost reductions:

• A single seat material is easier to specify,reducing valve and spare part acquisitioncosts and inventory.

• Longer cycle life minimizes shutdowns,repairs and increases process uptime.

• Lower torque reduces size requirementsand, ultimately, actuator costs.

• Eliminates leaking valves, reducesmaintenance costs and increases productquality — even in critical chlorine,phosgene, hydrazine, and cyanideapplications.

We have pushed theenvelope with ourXTREME seat technology.XTREME seats trulyexpand the performanceboundaries of standardflanged ball valves toprovide a new range ofapplicability. XTREME seatsoffer a variety ofadvantages over PTFE,standard-filled PTFE, andeven PEEK seats:

Expanded Temperature and PressureRangesBetter recovery helps the seat materialmaintain contact with the valve ball forbetter sealing.

Lower TorqueA lower coefficient of friction and reducedstiffness translate into lower torquerequirements — this may allow you toreduce actuators by one or more sizes.

Going To Extremes To Meet YourPerformance And Cost Requirements.

Seat Memory Affects SealingPerformance.• Seat performance is optimized because the

seat returns to its original shape afterloading. This maintains a tight sealbetween the seat and ball.

• Maximum seat recovery allows for highestpressures and cycle life.
