Overview of Grove Valve
Cameron GROVE side-entry ball valves are manufactured in a wide range of diameters and pressure classes. The valves are specified for transmission pipelines, pumping, compression and reinjection units, offshore platforms, onshore terminals, pig traps, measuring stations, and surge-relief skids
Features of Grove Ball Valve
Antistatic device
Bearing blocks that absorb the pressure load on the ball
Body relief valve for overpressure due to liquid thermal expansion
Bolted construction that permits disassembly in the field for repairs
Built-in sealant injection system for emergency seat seal
Double-barrier stem seals
Double-sealing barrier in both directions
Integral stop in the adapter plate for a permanent reference to an open and closed position
Large-diameter, short coupled trunnions that reduce unit bearing loads and operating torque
Metal-backed, self-lubricating PTFE sleeve bearing and thrust washers that reduce torque and extend the service life
Nickel plating for trim parts
Primary metal-to-metal seal and secondary protected synthetic O-ring seal
Stem that is separated from the ball, delivering an anti-blowout design
Trunnion-mounted ball for ease of operation at high pressure
Options of Grove Ball Valve
Double block-and-bleed capabilities
Emergency grease fitting for stem
Plastic polymer O-ring or insert for primary seat sealing
Self-relieving seats
Triple-barrier stem seals
Various grades of PTFE for stem and seat sealing
Applications of Grove Ball Valve
GROVE valves meet the frequent-cycling, high- and low temperature, corrosive demands of gas processing applications with increased safety and operational efficiency.
Onshore operations—separation, wastewater disposal, tank battery, recovery, SAGD, and oil sands applications
Pipeline operations—transmission, emergency shutdown, pigging, and pump and compressor station applications
Liquid tank storage—tank storage isolation, custody transfer, metering skids, and loading and unloading applications
Offshore operations—production, separation, processing and compression, and storage, metering, and exporting
Subsea operations—fluid control and isolation for manifolds, flowlines, and risers
