What is a Valve Train?

Commercial, Industrial, and Power Generation equipment that utilizes natural gas, propane, or various grades of heating oil as the fuel source, all need and have a series of valves and control devices to control the input of these fuels in a safe, controlled manner. The design, installation, operations, maintenance, component selection and arrangement, and approval of these devices are dictated by national and International Codes and Guidelines, to insure the utmost safety, reliability, and consistency.

These fuel delivery systems are commonly referred to as Gas Trains, Fuel Trains, or Pipe Trains, and typically include the Main burner and Pilot system fuel controls.

ETTER Engineering Valve Trains adhere to either the National Fire Protection Agency Standard NFPA-85 or NFPA-86 covering boilers and industrial equipment.

• A basic Valve Train from ETTER Engineering includes:
  • Fuel Inlet and Delivery Equipment:
    • This typically includes the components for fuel supply, manually shut off of the fuel line, and a gas or fuel oil filter strainer
  • Fuel Pressure Regulating Equipment:
    • This typically includes the Gas or Fuel Oil Pressure Regulator. These components are chosen specifically by application specific data.
  • Safety Shut-Off Valves:
    • These are Normally Closed valves that are electrically actuated to open and either allow or inhibit the flow of fuel. They are not flow control valves, as they are to be dedicated to the shut-off function. The valves will have visual indication and proved close switches for applications and sizes that require these features.
  • Fuel Pressure Switches:
    • These are pressure switches, for either gas or oil that are normally closed in a safe operating state, which open when the fuel pressure exceeds the switch setting.
  • Flow Control Device:
    • These are valves that are designed to modulate the flow of the gas or oil, into the burner. They are intended to function with the burner management system or device to maintain a desired and safe operating condition.
