AceCo valves logoAceco Valves
Aceco Valve Inc. is an ISO Certified company built around the highest standards of quality and service. Our goal is to provide the best quality valves at the most competitive prices. Our belief that better design provides better performance comes from 35 years of design engineering by G.A. "Jerry" Stunkard. Jerry has designed valves for companies such as AOP, Wheatley, Orbit, K-F, Norriseal, and other major valve manufacturers. Aceco Valve incorporates the best quality manufacturing with the most modern engineering techniques available in order to supply the best valves in the industry.

AceCo Valves Inc, (AceCo) manufactures manifold valves for use in offshore and inland production manifold and high-pressure flowline applications. This new product line includes the Model BV1 Floating Ball Valve, the proprietary Model BV2 Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve and Model CV Check Valve. AceCo valves offer maximum compactness, significant cost savings and are available to purchasers of both new production manifolds and replacement valves for existing manifolds.

Model BV1 Manifold Ball Valve

The Model BV1 manifold ball valve provides advanced design, high quality materials and superior craftsmanship for cost effective operation and durability. The valve body, bonnet and end connections are constructed of carbon and/or alloy steel, while seats are made of Acetyl Copolymer. This ensures high strength operation and durability. A stem lubrication fitting and seal keeps corrosion to a minimum and further extends operating life.

You get reduced cost with AceCo's BV1 because the weight is 70% lower and the size is 60% less than conventional ball valves. And since the bonnet and stem are removable while the valve is in the line, lower maintenance costs and downtime result when replacing stem and bonnet seals.

End connections are designed to be welded directly into the line with no other fittings required. Also, metal-to-metal face seals at the body connection with secondary O-ring seals assure leak proof end connections.

The BV1 is designed to be a reliable replacement valve as well, with similar end-to-end valve dimensions and bolt patterns. There's no need to alter flowline spacing or replace end flanges with the BV1.

Model CV Check Valve
AceCo Model CV Check Valve is a swing type valve designed for high-pressure oil, gas, water and other oilfield operations. The clapper is held to the closed position by a spring but will swing up and out of the flow path, allowing full port passage through the valve. AceCo offers nominal sizes 1" to 10" in working pressures to 15,000 psi.

All Model CV check valves feature a compact, space saving design, for offshore platforms where space is at a premium. The CV also weighs up to 70% less than conventional flanged check valves.

The CV is a good replacement valve since no change in flowline spacing or flange replacement is required -- dimensions and bolt patterns are the same as similar compact valves.

Model BV2 Trunnion Mounted Ball Valves
AceCo's Model BV2 Trunnion Mounted Ball Valves combine advanced trunnion design and quality manufacturing for superior performance in manifold valve applications. For high-pressure service up to 15,000 lbs. psi, the Model BV2 is available in nominal sizes from 2" to 10".

Because of its trunnion design, the Model BV2 provides up to a 70% reduction in operating torque, compared to similar floating ball valve designs. This reduction in torque is an important consideration on production manifolds. Torque is reduced because the load pressure on the valve is exerted on the trunnions instead of the seat assembly. Since the trunnions rotate in a low friction bearing, the valve is considerably easier to operate than floating ball valve designs. Lower torque operation enables the use of smaller, lighter weight gear operators/actuators and hand wheels, allowing for additional cost savings and ease of operation. Some of the other Model BV2 features include:

  • Double block and bleed capability for simple seat integrity check
  • Threaded seat retainer enables the valve to be installed in either direction and permits removal of piping from either end at full rated working pressure, with the valve closed; also eliminates the potential for blowouts
  • Lubrication fitting and lube channel integrated into stem design to help minimize stem/bonnet corrosion and eliminate stem freeze-ups
