New Swagelok Alternative Fuel Service -- AFS -- Ball Valves Offer High Pressure, High Flow.SOLON, Ohio -- With working pressures up to 6000 psig (413 bar) at 250 degrees F (121 degrees C) and flow coefficients from 4.0 to 13.8, new Swagelok(R) alternative fuel service (AFS A distributed file system for large, widely dispersed Unix and Windows networks from Transarc Corporation, now part of IBM. It is noted for its ease of administration and expandability and stems from Carnegie-Mellon's Andrew File System. AFS - Andrew File System ) 2-way ball valves meet the demands of hydrogen and compressed natural gas Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is a substitute for gasoline (petrol) or diesel fuel. It is considered to be an environmentally "clean" alternative to those fuels. It is made by compressing natural gas (which is mainly composed by methane (CH4 applications. Certifications include ANSI (American National Standards Institute, New York, www.ansi.org) A membership organization founded in 1918 that coordinates the development of U.S. voluntary national standards in both the private and public sectors. It is the U.S. member body to ISO and IEC. / NGV 3.1 service valve certification to 3600 psig (248 bar) and ANSI / NGV 4.6 Class B certification to 4500 psig (310 bar). The unique ultra low-temperature fluorocarbon fluorocarbon /flu·o·ro·car·bon/ (floor´o-kahr?b?n) any of the class of organic compounds consisting of carbon and fluorine only. O-ring material seals across the full temperature range of the valve (-40 to 250 degrees F (-40 to 121 degrees C)). Swagelok's robust, spring-loaded, patent-pending seat design does not require adjustment after the valve is installed. All wetted components of the AFS ball valve are compatible with hydrogen and compressed natural gas (CNG). Fractional and metric Swagelok tube fitting end connections provide gaugeable make-up and consistent, leak-tight connections. ISO (1) See ISO speed.

The U.S. member body is ANSI. and NPT end connections are also available. Choose from a heavy-duty quarter-turn directional handle, a Swagelok rack and pinion rack and pinion Mechanical device consisting of a bar of rectangular cross section (the rack), having teeth on one side that mesh with teeth on a small gear (the pinion). If the pinion rotates about a fixed axis, the rack will move in a straight path. pneumatic actuator, or an ISO 5211-compliant rack and pinion pneumatic actuator.
