• Total Steam Control—Combines pressure and temperature control in a single valve.
• Full Pressure Drop Capability—Rugged Design TBX is capable of handling full pressure drop of main steam.
• Noise Attenuation—Whisper III and WhisperFlo trim cages are available and result in reduced noise for large steam flow and high pressure drop.
• High Temperature Capability with Standard Class V Shutoff—Use of the patented Fisher® Bore Seal trim gives capability of Class V shutoff as a standard up to 593°C (1100°F). This unique balanced trim is field-proven. See figure 7.
• Forged Valve Body—FEA designed valve body can handle the most demanding applications without thermal stress problems.
• Flow Up Angle—Permits vertical stem orientation for ease of maintenance in most applications.
• Thermally Compensated Trim—The cage is case-hardened for maximum life and is allowed to grow during thermally induced excursions. The plug is continuously guided and employs cobalt-based overlays for guide bands and tight metal-to-metal shutoff against the seat.
• Easy Maintenance Seat Ring—No bolting or gaskets used in the flow stream. Welded design provides Class V shutoff and long life. Deep Alloy 6 overlay can be refinished multiple times to maintain tight shutoff.
• Spiral-Wound Gaskets for Excellent Bonnet Sealing Under All Service Conditions—Premium gaskets provided with N06600 windings and Graphite filler material.
• Precise Spraywater Injection—CFD designed spray manifold determines water injection point and insertion depth to maximize mixing and quick vaporization.
• High Turndown—Standard trim control rangeability is 50:1. Special construction can provide up to 75:1 turndown.
• Quick Stroking Actuation—High performance pneumatic piston actuators with FIELDVUE® digital valve controllers can achieve full stroke in less than 2 seconds while still maintaining highly accurate step response.
• Performance Diagnostics—With the self-diagnostic capability, questions can be answered about a valve's performance, without pulling the valve from the line. The present valve/actuator signature (seat load, friction, etc.) can be compared against previously stored signatures to discover performance changes before they cause process control problems.

• Blowdown Trim—Protects the working trim and machined surfaces of the valve body during steam blow.
• Hydro-Plug— Provides a convenient way to establish hydrotest boundaries associated with using a split pressure class valve.
• Split Functionality—When piping dictates, the TBX valve can be provided as separate components allowing the pressure control in the valve body and separate temperature reduction downstream in a steam cooler.
• Commissioning Service—Proper installation of blowdown trim and hydro-plug fixtures, along with reassembly and calibration of turbine bypass valves, is critical for the valves to be ready for service when needed. Let skilled Emerson Process Management technicians take care of this vital commissioning service to protect this very important plant asset.
• Diagnostic Services—The Emerson Process Management Diagnostic Services Group delivers world class services and innovative technologies for top performance of critical service valves and other production assets.
