🔍 Key Concepts

• Examine the number of separate plug/disc surfaces attached to the valve stem in the flow passage (the shaded flow area). • Determine where the seat rings are located relative to those plug/disc surfaces – each seat needs a matching disc. • Think about the direction the stem must move to shut off flow at each seat: does the disc move upward into the seat, or downward into it?

💭 Think About

• Count how many distinct sealing edges you can see along the stem that could actually stop the flow from inlet to outlet. • Trace the inlet flow path (from the INLET arrow to the OUTLET arrow) and identify where the flow would be blocked when the valve is fully closed. • Look at the lowest part of the valve body: when the actuator pushes the stem down, does the plug move into or away from the seat at the bottom? What about any plug higher up?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify exactly how many discs/plug faces on the stem actually contact a machined seat ring. • Confirm the orientation of each seat’s sealing surface (facing up or facing down) and the corresponding motion of the disc to close the valve. • Make sure you are not counting guides or spacers on the stem as discs; only parts that form a tight seal with a seat ring should be treated as discs.
