Features & Benefits
  • Unmatched Trim Life & AccuracySliding Gate Trim: The unique seat design delivers exceptional durability and precise control, reducing the need for frequent maintenance and ensuring accurate pressure regulation over time.
  • Rapid Pressure AdjustmentFast Response: The short stroke of the sliding gate enables quick reaction to changes in process conditions, minimizing pressure offsets and improving system stability.
  • Efficient, Uninterrupted FlowStraight-Through Flow: With the flow running directly through the valve, and the disc moving perpendicular to it, pressure regulation is smoother, and seat imbalance is eliminated, leading to enhanced operational efficiency.
  • Quieter OperationNoise Reduction: The innovative Sliding Gate seats reduce noise compared to traditional regulators. The disc and plate remain in constant contact, preventing chattering, while the straight-through flow minimizes turbulence and further reduces noise.
  • Easy MaintenanceLow-Cost, Low-Maintenance: The Mark 50’s sliding gate seats require no special tools for disassembly. Pre-lapped at the factory, the seats self-lap during operation to maintain a tight shutoff, significantly reducing downtime and service costs.

Sliding Gate Valves

You will notice something different in many Jordan valves … the sliding gate seat. A remarkably simple concept that offers superior performance and benefits not found in traditional rising stem and rotary valves.

How Choosing a Sliding Gate Valve Could Save Money in Steam Applications

Read about sliding gate valves, how they work, why they outperform in steam service, and read a case study describing how installing Jordan sliding gate control valves tightened a customer’s dryer temperatures and helped increase throughput.

FAQs

1. Should the seat on the Mark 50 back pressure regulator be opened or closed when the valve is not operating?

On a Mark 50 and any size back pressure regulator that has the sliding gate seat, the valve will be stroked down and the seat will be closed when it’s not opening.

Learn more about adjusting the seat on your Mark 50 back pressure regulator here.

2. How can I disassemble and repair my Mark 50 back pressure regulator?

To learn how to disassemble and repair the Mark 50 series back pressure regulator, watch our instructional video.

Visit our resource page for more product installation and maintenance videos.

How will I know if I have the correct flow direction?

There will be an arrow cast into the side of the body of the Mark 50 series back pressure regulator, this arrow has to always be pointed in the direction that is going with the flow, not against it.

Watch our Flow Direction help video for more information.
