Yoshitake BSV-20F, BSV-10F Bellows Seal Globe Valves

Yoshitake BSV-20F and BSV-10F ductile cast iron bellows seal globe valves. Features SUS316Ti bellows, zero gland leakage, handling steam and fluids up to 350°C and 2.8 MPa. JIS flanged.

Yoshitake BSV-20F, BSV-10F Bellows Seal Globe Valves

The Yoshitake BSV-20F and BSV-10F are ductile cast iron bellows seal globe valves designed to provide superior isolation for steam, air, cold and hot water, oil, and other non-dangerous fluids. Engineered with a highly durable SUS316Ti stainless steel bellows and stainless steel valve internals (reinforced with Stellite), these valves completely eliminate gland leakage and the need for frequent maintenance. The BSV-10F features JIS 10K FF flanged connections for up to 1.4 MPa, while the heavy-duty BSV-20F utilizes JIS 20K RF flanges to handle pressures up to 2.8 MPa and temperatures up to 350°C. Both models ensure safe and highly reliable performance in demanding industrial piping systems.

Storage and Installation

Caution

  • Store the product indoors in a dust-free, low humidity, dry and ventilated environment.
  • Installation should be conducted by suitably trained personnel, wearing protective head, eye, hand, and foot protection.
  • To install the product, make sure that the direction of fluid flow matches the arrow marked on the product.
  • In order to avoid excessive piping stress in the valve, carefully align the center of the valve and the connected pipe so that they will be in line.
  • In case that the product is expected to be frozen, be sure to conduct freezing prevention measures or water draining treatment.
  • The valve can be installed in both horizontal and vertical pipes, but the position must be from upright to sideways. Do not install the valve upside down.

To use the valve for high-temperature fluids (approximately 200°C or higher), raise the valve temperature to the operating temperature, and then tighten the bolts additionally. For additional tightening, ensure that the valve is open, and tighten the bolts in a diagonal sequence from a low torque to the tightening torque as listed in the table below using a torque wrench. Tightening should be done gradually and evenly.

Operation

Warning

Before applying fluid, make sure that there is no danger if the fluid flows into the end of the piping. Failure to follow this notice may result in property damage due to fluid leakage.

Caution

  • When using the product with its valve fully open, turn the handle counterclockwise by 45 degrees from the fully open position to prevent the valve from being stuck.
  • Do not try to turn the handle beyond its fully open/closed positions. Otherwise, the valve may be damaged.
  • Operate the valve according to the torque limits shown below, and do not apply excessive force.

Sizes 200A and larger are equipped with Valve (S) to reduce the opening torque. When opening the valve, first rotate the Handle by approximately one full turn to open the Valve (S) and allow the differential pressure between the inlet and outlet pressures to reduce before continuing to operate the Handle.

Tighten the lock bolt if it is necessary to fix the handle. When applying grease to the sleeve, remove the lock bolt and put grease into the screw hole (recommendation: Henkel LOCTITE LB 8150).

Troubleshooting

TroubleCauseRemedy
Leakage from between the body and the bonnetStress relief of gasket.Tighten the bolt additionally. If leakage does not stop after retightening, replace the product.
Leakage from the gland packing partDamage of the bellows.Tighten the gland nut. Then, replace the product immediately.
Leakage from the valve and/or valve seat on complete closing1. The valve and/or valve seat are damaged.
2. Foreign matter caught.
1. Replace the product with a new one.
2. Remove the foreign substance.
Operation torque of the handle is abnormally large1. Poor lubrication of the sleeve.
2. Foreign substance is stuck on spindle and screw part.
1. Apply grease to the sleeve.
2. Remove the foreign substance.
Abnormal soundEach screw is loose.Retighten the loosened parts.

Maintenance

Warning

Completely discharge the pressure inside of the product, line and equipment before inspection and maintenance. For high temperature fluid, cool down the product till it can be touched with bare hands. Failure to follow this notice may result in injury or burns due to residual pressure.

Please perform annual inspections to maintain the product's optimal performance. Check for normal switching operation, abnormal sounds, and any signs of external leakage.
