<strong>Valtek</strong> <strong>Severe</strong> <strong>Service</strong> <strong>Equipment</strong>Tiger-Tooth TrimMaintenanceAll Flowserve trims are designedfor easy maintenance and Tiger-Tooth is no exception. Clearancebetween the stack and plug isdesigned for an optimum combinationof stability and smoothoperation. The clamped-in seat,top-entry trim design permits quickdisassembly. The Tiger-Toothstack is easily removed for inspectionor cleaning. The Tiger-Toothstack design is ideal for fluids withentrained particles. Fine andmedium-sized particles easily passthrough the discs because thedesign does not include anyhorizontal boundaries within thestack.Flow CapacityThe required flow capacity for anapplication can be determinedthrough the standard ISA sizingequations. The main difference insizing a standard globe valve anda Tiger-Tooth valve is that theTiger-Tooth valve is far less likelyto choke in either a gas or liquidapplication.In choosing a valve for a particularapplication, the user should considernot only the C V, but also thevelocity and the Sigma value orpressure ratio that must be accommodated.The typical Tiger-toothtrim information given in the tableson page 9 is not intended to providea complete listing of all availabledesigns. Rather, it can beuseful in estimating capabilities ofa particular valve size and pressureclass.Trim PartTable 3: Tiger-Tooth Materials of ConstructionExpanding Tiger-ToothSudden ExpansionFLOWAvailable MaterialsS tack Aluminum-Bronze, 410 stainless steel, 316 stainless steel,316 stainless steel with Alloy 6 overlay, other alloys asrequiredP lug 316 stainless steel, 316 stainless steel with Alloy 6 overlay,other alloys as requiredS eat Ring 316 stainless steel, 316 stainless steel with Alloy 6 overlay,other alloys as requiredSudden ContractionFigure 12: Sudden Expansion and ContractionCaused by Tiger-Tooth Design2 Teeth3 Teeth4 Teeth7 Teeth6 Teeth5 TeethFigure 13: Noise Reduction vs. Number of Tiger-Tooth Teeth8Flowserve Corporation, <strong>Valtek</strong> Control Products, Tel.
