Baker Hughes has launched the new Masoneilan PXR™ Single Seated Globe Valve, a modern control valve designed to deliver high performance, easy maintainability, and reliable control across a wide range of process applications. The valve is designed for standard industrial processes where operational reliability, precision, and cost-effectiveness are critical. According to Baker Hughes, the PXR series is available in sizes ranging from ½” to 6″, in ASME Class 150 and 300, and in several material options, including carbon steel, stainless steel, Hastelloy, and Monel.

Designed for modern processing plants

The Masoneilan PXR is designed to provide greater capacity per valve size through optimized valve bodies and plug profiles. Advanced casting techniques also contribute to reduced material consumption and a more efficient design.

The valve features an unbalanced, stem- and disc-driven trim design that provides excellent plug support and stable control even under demanding process conditions. Interchangeable trim options make it possible to adapt the valve to various applications and operating requirements.

Tighter shut-off and easier maintenance

The PXR comes with a threaded seat and a design that eliminates the need for balancing seals or pilot plugs to achieve a tight shut-off. The valve meets ANSI/FCI 70-2 Class IV or V leakage requirements as standard. This provides enhanced process control, reduced maintenance requirements, and high operational reliability.

Ready for Digitalization

The valve is available with several of Masoneilan’s well-known positioning units, including the SVi1000, SVI II AP, and SVI3. This makes it possible to select the appropriate level of diagnostics and digital monitoring, ranging from basic control to advanced solutions featuring predictive maintenance and online valve analysis.

Typical applications

Masoneilan PXR is designed for use in applications such as:

• Power Generation
• Refining and Petrochemicals
• Chemical Industry
• Upstream and downstream oil and gas
• Midstream Facilities and the Process Industry

The valve is suitable for applications such as steam systems, turbines, distillation, compression, dehydration, LNG processes, cooling systems, and general control tasks in process plants.
