BALL VALVE HOUSING SEAT AND METHOD OF SECURING THE SAME TO A BALL VALVE
摘要
<p>A valve comprising a housing, an annular housing seat, and a gate. The housing comprises a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The housing seat is fixed in position relative to the housing via epoxy. The gate comprises a gate seat and a fluid passageway that extends through the gate. The gate is movable relative to the housing between an open position and a closed position. The gate is also configured to allow fluid to flow from the fluid inlet through the fluid passageway to the fluid outlet when the gate is in the open position, and configured such that the gate seat engages the housing seat in a manner preventing fluid from flowing from the fluid inlet to the fluid outlet when the gate is in the closed position.</p>
