ABSTRACT:
A cryogenic valve having a valve seat in the valve body adapted to be closed by a conical seat disc. The seat disc is supported for vertical movement in a seat holder which is carried by an elongated stem that extends through the valve bonnet. The stem and bonnet are sealed by a series of compressed Teflon and brass rings concentric with and between the upper end of the valve bonnet and the stem. The rings are axially compressed between a flange formed in the valve bonnet and a sleeve follower which in turn is secured by a packing nut. The Teflon rings have holes therethrough and/or roughened surfaces to provide improved sealing.
