Process Control Valve

Simple, robust construction makes this industry workhorse easier to maintain.

KMT's McCartney PCV is a modern design of an industry workhorse. This valve is dimensionally interchangeable with valves in service today.

The internal configuration is a KMT stem and seat design. High wear resistance and high corrosion resistance was a prime consideration during the design of the PCV. Simple, robust construction has fewer parts and is more easily refurbished than other valves.

The two-piece body design is simple and inexpensive. A very specialized 4340 alloy steel material, forged to McCartney #43-72 specifications, was chosen for its workability and high-pressure performance. A 15-5PH stainless steel option is available when corrosion is a problem. Seat material is nitrided for increased life and corrosion resistance during service in your toughest applications. There is no cage to remove as part of a valve rebuild. Routine valve maintenance can be done easily and inexpensively by on site maintenance staff.

The PCV can be fitted with a variety of actuators. Electrohydraulic actuators take full advantage of the sophisticated process control systems in use today. KMT's pneumatic piston type and saginaw style actuators can also be used. We will be happy to consider other actuator options upon request.
