DAC Worldwide’s Valve Packing Training System (250-000) is a detailed replica of a six-inch gate valve, equipped with a backseat, which facilitates the proper removal and installation of packing. The training system features a patterned Anchor/Darling pressure seal gate valve with backseat, a clear acrylic bonnet, an aluminum simulated valve body, and yoke assembly, and more.
Using this training system, learners will explore how valve packing is used for training in various sectors, including the design, application, control, and maintenance of common gate valves. The training system covers industry-relevant skills, such as operating, maintaining, and troubleshooting industrial gate valves in a variety of applications.
This Valve Packing Training System includes a variety of industrial components, including an aluminum working stem machined to 32 RMS, lantern ring bleed-off connections, an aluminum gland, and follower, and much more. Learners will use these electrical components to study topics such as performing valve component inspections, packing a valve with compression packing and lantern rings, repacking a valve with a die-formed packing set, retrofitting a valve, and much more. This system utilizes industry-grade components, providing durability to stand up to frequent use, and to aide learners in becoming better prepared for the tasks they will encounter on the job.
The Valve Packing Training System features a 7-gauge, steel baseplate with provisions for tabletop mounting. A clear acrylic stuffing box allows total visibility of the packing area, both during maintenance activities and after compression. The natural magnification created by the acrylic housing clearly shows consolidation and packing pressure against the cavity wall. Water and coloring can be introduced to see migration due to insufficient gland load, improper installation techniques, and stem/cavity imperfections. This process allows for the convenient demonstration of live-loaded packing and the use of die-formed graphite packing, as well as conventional packing materials.
The training system highlights a gate valve, which was patterned after a six-inch, 600-pound Anchor/Darling pressure seal gate valve. The training system also features a plethora of standard accessories, including an inspection mirror, a standard set of PTFE type braided packing, two (2) 10-inch packing pullers, two (2) 10-inch lantern ring pullers, a 6-inch pocket depth scale, and much more. Through a variety of realistic features, this device allows for realistic training in good maintenance practice prior to performing work in the field, without jeopardizing actual equipment.
Industrial maintenance technicians must be familiar with a wide variety of valves used throughout many different types of industries. A common task technicians encounter on the job is replacing valve packing to prevent valves from leaking.
DAC Worldwide’s Motorized Multi-Turn Valve Actuator Trainer (212-000) is a multi-functional device used for hands-on multi-turn actuator training.
DAC Worldwide’s Flange Bolt Torquing Training System Plus (225-PAC) is a heavy-duty learning aide that allows for in-depth training in bolted joint torquing, gasket selection/usage, and torque wrench usage.
Our learning programs develop job-ready skills that have been proven time and again. Take a look at how we can help you be successful!Colleges are challenged to offer courses whenever students are available – and frequently, wherever they are available. Students want courses that are available on campus as well as from home while also providing strong hands-on skills for the technology demands facing them. Meeting these demands is no small task.
Amatrol has learning programs that allow colleges to excel in this demanding environment. We offer a full range of learning systems, both in a traditional equipment lab setting as well as in a virtual lab, that meet and exceed students' expectations.
