CT valve: Supreme performance
for high-speed compressors
CT valve: the high-performance valve
for high-speed compressors
www.hoerbiger-compression.com
Oil sticktion in compressor valves leads
to valve failures especially at high speeds.
The CT valve has been developed to
minimize oil sticktion while providing
maximum efficiency.
More than 350.000 CT valves are
operating successfully in natural gas and
process industry.
I A well-proven valve design,
very successful for high-speed,
short-stroke gas compressors
I The non-metallic valve plate and
wafer spring dampens the opening
impact and prevents oil sticktion
I Peripheral spring arrangement
increases the valve life extremely
by preventing valve plate tumbling
and reducing closing impact
I Trouble-free suction valve control
with HOERBIGER unloaders
The CT valve and its applications:
I Industries:
Natural gas
Gas transport
Gas gathering
Gas storage
Process industry
Refineries
Chemical industry
Petrochemical industry
