All torques shown on the chart were derived from test data using water at 60°F. for torques using dry gases, multiply these numbers by 1.6. for torques involving other media, please consult the factory.

There is no safety factor included in the numbers shown on this chart. For actuator sizing, Center Line recommends that these values be multiplied by 1.2 for single valve applications, and 1.5 for 3-way ("tee") applications.

Under certain conditions, hydrodynamic torque can meet or exceed seating and unseating torques. When designing valve systems, hydrodynamic torque must be considered to help insure correct selection for the application.
