ABSTRACT:
A valve apparatus comprises a valve body having a fluid passage therein including a valve seat. A valve member, having a head and stem, is movable in the body between valve open and valve closed positions determined by the proximity of its head to the valve seat. The valve member is engageable in sealing relation with a portion of the valve body between the valve seat and a valve stem packing to block fluid in the passage from contacting and leaking between the valve stem and packing. This sealing relation also serves to protect a bellows, connected between the valve member and valve body, from contact with fluid in the fluid passage.
