Hydrocore’s mine water pressure reducing valves offer reduced downtime

The Hydrocore™ range of mine water pressure reducing valves offered by Dual Valves Australasia* feature a single moving part that is easily accessible for maintenance with the valve in the installed position. The valves are designed to handle a maximum inlet pressure of 250 bar (25 MPa) and are ideal for pressure reduction in underground mining applications.

“Hydrocore™ pressure reducing valves are designed to offer greatly reduced maintenance downtime, minimal operating costs and maximum system flexibility, and the simple design makes troubleshooting and repairs significantly easier compared with competing products” says Dual Valves’ Justin Mirto. He explains that, by removing the valve’s end covers and extracting the shuttle, the seals can be replaced and the shuttle refitted to resume operations in a very short time. “No need to remove the valve out of the pipe line. No pressure reducing pilot valves, needle valves, isolating c**k valves, dismantling of pilot lines, springs and diaphragms to deal with. It’s so easy - simply remove one end cover, remove one moving part, replace the seals and reinstall - and the system is back up and running again in a few minutes”.

As with all their product range, Hydrocore™ applied their experience and understanding to design their pressure reducing valves specifically for underground mine water applications. The tamper proof design and reliable performance ensures that end-users can enjoy trouble-free operation for many years. All Hydrocore™ valves are designed with this simple but effective philosophy, and their range includes valves for isolation and control application, including pressure reduction, pump discharge control, column drain and water-hammer prevention up to a maximum of 250 bar CWP.

*Note: Hydrocore™ products are available to Dual Valves Australasia through our relationship with our Principal - Hydromine Projects of South Africa, who has sole representation.

Slimline valve – ball check valve with integral seat

Dual Slimline Ball Non Return valve (DSFFV)

PRODUCT FEATURES

The DSFFV’s heart is a reinforced urethane ball. The unique design allows free movement of the ball, which lifts completely out of the liquid without any interference. As the pump stops, the heavy ball falls into the seat resulting in dropless sealing

TECHNICAL FEATURES
•SIZE (mm): 80 to 600. Different sizes available on request
•OPERATING PRESSURE: 0 to 100 bar

BENEFITS
•Prevents clogging by means of the self cleaning ball
•Silent, non-slam and reduces pipe hammer
•Simple construction with only one moving component

APPLICATIONS
•Mining and mineral processing
•Power generation
•Sand and gravel
•Chemical and soda ash
•Pulp and paper
•Environmental and Effluent

Air valve – air valve and vacuum breaker

DUAL Slurry Air Release valve (DSARV)

PRODUCT FEATURES

The DSARV ‘s function is to automatically exhaust large volumes of air from the system when it is being filled and also to allow air to re enter the pipeline when being emptied. The or***ce size is generally the same size as the valve inlet and outlet.

TECHNICAL FEATURES
•SIZE (mm): 50 to 200
•OPERATING PRESSURE: 0 to 100 bar

BENEFITS
•Self cleaning ball action with no blocking due to ball rotation
•Linatex secondary seal for a positive seal

APPLICATIONS
•Slurry pipelines
•Deep well pumping
•Waterlines
•Sewage
•High pressure pipelines
•Pipelines with scale

DUAL VALVES AUSTRALASIA OFFERS HYDROCORE™ U-CONE PIPE COUPLINGS – DESIGNED FOR SPECIFICALLY FOR HIGH PRESSURE MINING PIPELINES

The Hydrocore™ U-Cone coupling offers mine engineers a simple and economical alternative to traditional fl**ges for use on high pressure pipe systems.

Pipes are joined simply by bringing the ends of the pipe with welded hubs together after inserting the seal, fitting the clamp set over the adjoining hubs and tightening the clamp bolts.
The external tapers on the hubs provide alignment while the clamp set pulls the hubs together, forming a simple but effective seal which comparable to similar rated conventional fl**ge systems.
Assembly and stripping times are faster than conventional fl**ges - the number of bolts to be tightened on U-Cone pipe couplings is far less than the number of bolts on a standard comparable fl**ge system – eg: a U-Cone DN100 250 Bar (25Mpa) rated coupling uses 2 bolts – whereas a similar rated fl**ge (ANSI/ASME B16.5 Class 1500 #) would use 8 bolts.
Storage/transportation costs are lower due to smaller footprint occupied by pipes with welded hubs compared to pipes with welded fl**ges. Fl**ge diameters are larger than hub diameters.
Hubs can be supplied full bore, with metallurgy to ensure weld compatibility with the pipe used, and are supplied prepared for standard butt welding to all pipes.

Features and specifications:
o Clamps are cast steel BS3100 Gr. 2 or equivalent as standard, with optional coatings available.
o Hubs are St52 as standard, with other alloys available upon request for weld compatibility with the pipe system used.
o Bolts used are Gr.8.8 or higher, electro-galvanized as standard.
o Designed and tested per ASME B31.3 and ANSI/ASME VIII.
o Available in various sizes with standard pressure ratings from 64 Bar up to 250 Bar (25Mpa):
o 100 Bar (10MPA) rated: DN50 to DN500
o 160 Bar (16Mpa) rated: DN50 to DN400
o 250 Bar (25Mpa) rated: DN50 to DN300.

eDART COARSE POPPET SAMPLER
The coarse sampler has been specifically designed to sample coarse slurries, typically
cyclone feed lines. This sampler can sample particles up to 15 mm in diameter. This
sampler features a tungsten carbide piston plate and a polyurethane sampling chamber for
increased wear resistance. The samplers are used for calibration of densitometers and
control purposes. In the retracted position the sampler is fully removed from the process
stream to extend life expectancy.
