Maximum Allowable Stem Torque (MAST) 1 Comment
MAST (Maximum Allowable Stem Torque) We know ball valves (rotary valves) are used as ESDVs/BDVs in critical services like shutdown, isolation and blow down application.
As an engineer we always ensure reliability and integrity of actuator and its components.
However as far as stem components are concerned we either give little attention to mechanical integrity of stem or sometimes we leave it to valve vendor and assume “Stem design is sufficient enough to withstand actuator torque”. Always it is not true, Stems do fail!!! If stem key of an ESDV is failed OR damaged in open position……. What can happen …? It will not close when there is a close command and this may lead to disastrous situation …
MAST: Definition & its importance It is maximum allowable torque a stem of a quarter turn valve can be subjected to without mechanical failure. Engineering unit Nm OR lb-in During valve operation, torque delivered by actuator (Pneumatic or electric) at any stage, should not exceed MAST value. If it happens stem may be subjected to mechanical failure. In some projects it has happened that MAST value calculated by valve vendor was higher than actual, even than it resulted in failure of stem.
MAST value: Definition & its importance
This is valve manufactures responsibility to calculate and provide valve MAST during engineering stage and ensure torque delivered by actuator is always less than the valve MAST. During offer stage valve MAST furnished in performance table shall be considered as basic value. During engineering stage ideally 3-4 weeks after PO, Valve manufacture must submit Valve MAST calculation same shall be reviewed and approved by responsible engineer. Requirement of valve MAST calculation shall be indicated in SDRL To study the concept of MAST, first we need to know few of the valve internals and the stresses developed during the valve operation.
Drive train & its component Drive Train: Definition as per API 6D “All parts of a valve drive between the operator and obturator (Ball /Disc), including obturator but excluding the operator. Drive Train components in a ball valve are
1. Solid round stem 2. Stem key: Keys are used to transmit torque from actuator to stem 3. Ball & Stem joint (there are two types of Ball & Stem joint) a) Ball & stem joint with dowel pins – Type A b) Ball & stem spliced joint –rectangular section of stem fits into matching groove in the Ball- Type B
