DEDICATED MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT FOR
LARGE FORGED VALVE PRODUCTION
Machinery and equipment are especially
engineered to meet the requirements of
advanced large forged valve manufacturing
technology. This includes large CNC horizontal
and vertical boring mills with tool changers,
NC lathes and NC machining centers for valve
bodies and parts. Over 150 CNC machines are
in operation in Velan’s North American plants.
Welding equipment includes automatic plasma
arc and TIG hardfacing machines. Only one
typical machine is shown here.
Large forged valves to 24” are manufactured in
Plant 2 Canada, Plant 3 USA and Lyon, France.

Structural Integrity
Forging eliminates internal flaws and produces a coherent
and uniform metallurgical structure assuring optimum
performance. Where stress and intragranular corrosion
are a problem, a forging will assure long life and trouble-
free service.

Reliability
The ability of forgings to meet design requirements
consistently is one of the most important advantages and
takes into account all the preceding characteristics to
some degree.

GRAPHITE GASKETS
Velan recommends the use of graphite pressure seal gaskets, in lieu of standard soft iron gaskets,
in high temperature and frequently temperature-cycled applications. Daily Start and Stop (DSS) and
Week-end Start and Stop (WSS) operations require graphite gaskets. Customer must inform Velan of
such applications.
● Below 1,000 psi operating pressure graphite gaskets are recommended.
● Between 500 and 700 psi graphite gaskets are a must.
● Below 500 psi bolted bonnet valves are recommended.

INTERLOCKS
Valves can be supplied with an interlock system.
This system is used for safety reasons when one valve
must not be opened without a second valve first being
closed. This is accomplished by having two locks with
only one key.
● Valve ”A” is open and the key in its lock cannot be
removed until the valve is closed.
● Valve “B” is closed and cannot be opened until the
key from valve “A” is used on its lock.
● Now valve “A” cannot be opened until valve “B”
is closed.
