COMPRESSOR
VALVES
StraightFlo™ SS (Severe Service) compressor
valves provide unmatched reliability, efficiency,
serviceability, and savings in the most demanding
downstream refinery and petrochemical applications.
The StraightFlo™ SS is a drop-in replacement for
OEM valves in reciprocating compressors operating
at speeds from 200 to 3,600+ rpm, pressure
differentials up to 4,350 psi (300 bar), and service
temperatures from -40° to 500°F (-40° to 260°C). Stainless Steel Housing
PARADIGM-SHIFTING ADVANTAGES
The patented design features interchangeable, Patented Reed
Valve Technology
enhanced reed valve modules held stationary between
the valve seat and carrier. Components do not move
or impact the metal housings, so normal wear-and-
tear is completely contained inside the modules.
Modules have a straight-through flow path. Since gas
doesn’t travel a tortuous path, StraightFlo™ valves
have the lowest losses (highest efficiency) for a
given diameter.
Three material grades: Valve housings made Mat-N and Mat-M material Mat-X is commonly
Mat-N, Mat-M and Mat-X, of stainless steel with are commonly applied in applied in upstream
depending on chemical electroless nickel plating upstream applications applications where there
resistance requirements, (only on the seat for Mat-N where there is a high is H2S and CO2 , including
pressure, and temperature and Mat-M, and over the percentage of CO2 acid gas applications
