Cavitrol III Trims D0096X0 Product Bulletin 80.:00 September 07 Fisher Cavitrol III One, Two, and Three Stage Trims Cavitrol III trims (figures,, and ) are used for cavitating liquid applications in various globe and angle valve bodies (see tables,, and ). (Contact your Emerson sales office or Local Business Partner for angle valve information.) One stage trims are normally used where the pressure drop is below 99 bar (0 psi); two and three stage trims are normally used where the pressure drop is between 99 and 07 bar (0 and 000 psi). The Cavitrol III trims are frequently used in pump recirculation and startup systems in the power, process, oil production, chemical refining, and other industries. Unless otherwise noted, all NACE references are to NACE MR07 00. W708- CAVITROL III ONE STAGE TRIM PARTS Features Controls or Helps to Eliminate Cavitation Damage Cavitrol III trim can lengthen valve service life and reduce maintenance downtime. The shape and spacing of holes in the cage wall circumference helps prevent cavitation in a properly sized valve, effectively controlling or helping to eliminate (depending upon service s) cavitation damage and resulting valve failure. Rangeability Many special characterizations are available in Cavitrol III cages to match rangeability requirements of specific systems. Resistance to Erosion Damage Standard hardened trim materials provide excellent wear resistance, resulting in long trim life. The contoured valve plug seat reduces fluid separation, helps direct fluid away from trim, and helps protect against erosion damage. Versatility Available in NPS to globe or angle valves with weld end or flanged end connections. W9 CAVITROL III TWO OR THREE STAGE TRIM PARTS Easy Maintenance Cage type trim allows removal and inspection of parts without taking the valve body out of the pipeline. Fine particles very seldom cause the accumulation problem associated with labyrinth type trim. Efficient Operation A low inlet pressure to the final stage is maintained by the flow down configuration and the successively larger flow area of each stage. At the third stage inlet (see figure 6), about 8% of the total pressure drop has already occurred and the vena contracta pressure remains above the liquid vapor pressure. This helps to prevent cavitation in a properly sized valve. Trim Interchangeability Cavitrol III one stage trim is interchangeable with standard trims. Quick trim changes can be made with no additional parts, such as spacers, longer bolts, and special gaskets for valve sizes greater than NPS. www.fisher.com

Consult your Emerson sales office or Local Business Partner for flow coefficients and valve recovery coefficients of cages with optional characteristics. Principle of Operation Cavitation, the formation and subsequent collapse of vapor bubbles in liquid flow streams, is a major source of damage in control valves and adjacent piping. As liquid passes through a restriction in a control valve, the liquid velocity increases, while the liquid pressure decreases. The pressure reaches a minimum at a point called the vena contracta, and if the pressure at this point falls to or below the vapor pressure of the liquid (the pressure at which the liquid vaporizes), vapor bubbles form in the flow stream. Downstream of the vena contracta, flow area increases, velocity decreases, and pressure increases. If this recovered pressure is sufficient to raise the pressure above the liquid vapor pressure, the vapor bubbles will collapse. The collapsing bubbles generate significant noise and vibration, and can mechanically attack pipe walls and valve components. This attack can lead to the failure of conventional valve components, particularly the valve plug and seat ring. Cavitrol III One Stage Trim The Cavitrol III one stage trim (figures and ) can effectively eliminate cavitation damage in a properly sized and selected control valve. Each cage hole is shaped to create a small flow stream with a vena contracta pressure higher than that typically present in the flow stream of a standard cage. This higher vena contracta pressure reduces the fluid's tendency to cavitate. Each hole in a Cavitrol III one stage cage is also designed to reduce fluid turbulence, and the holes are spaced diametrically around the cage circumference; both features dissipate fluid pressure and help to increase capacity. Cavitrol III one stage trim can also be used to control cavitation damage. When selected and sized for this type of service, the radius edge on the valve plug and the diametrically opposed cage holes direct the cavitating fluid flow away from metal surfaces into the valve body cavity void. In this manner, damage from cavitating fluid flow is controlled. Service s of each application govern whether cavitation damage is effectively eliminated or controlled. Cavitrol III Two and Three Stage Trims The Cavitrol III two and three stage cages are concentric cylinders (or stages) (figure ) with specially shaped orifices. The choice of cage depends on the inlet pressure and the required pressure drop. In operation, liquid passes through the orifices in each stage, undergoing a portion of the total required pressure drop. This partial pressure drop in each stage of a properly sized valve normally prevents the liquid pressure from falling to or below its vapor pressure, eliminating the formation of vapor bubbles. A characterized Cavitrol III two or three stage trim can be specified on those applications where the pressure drop across the valve decreases with increasing valve plug travel. Characterized Cavitrol III two or three stage trim consists of two or three stages at the beginning of valve plug travel. Then, as the valve is required to take less pressure drop, cage sections with fewer stages are used.

Always specify the body design being ordered as selected from table or. Actuator and Accessory Information Select the specific actuator and accessories from the appropriate bulletins. Typically piston actuators must be used where the required valve plug travel is greater than 0 mm ( inches). Typically diaphragm actuators may be used for 0 mm ( inches) or less required travel.
