A fluid flow control valve having a valve body in which is formed a vertical elongated chamber.Forged Steel Valves The valve body is provided with an inlet passage and an outlet passage, and with a stationary annular seal mounted around the inner end of each of said passages. A rotatable valve is operatively mounted between said annular seals. The rotatable valve is provided with means for releasably retaining the valve in a locked position when it is rotated to the closed position.Globe Valves The rotatable valve has a pair of chambers formed therein, with one of said chambers comprising an inlet chamber having an inlet port communicating with said inlet passage and a downwardly opening outlet port communicating with the lower end of said valve body chamber,CHECK VALVES and the other of said pair of chambers comprising an outlet chamber having an upwardly opening inlet port communicating with said valve body chamber and an outlet port communicating with said outlet passage, whereby fluid entering said inlet passage will pass through said rotatable valve inlet chamber and down into the lower end of said valve body chamber and thence upwardly around said rotatable valve and into said rotatable valve outlet chamber and into said outlet passage. The valve includes means mounted in the lower end of the valve body chamber for rotating the rotatable valve between open and closed positions. The lower end of the elongated valve body chamber is adapted to function as a sediment and condensate collection chamber. A valve means is operatively mounted in the valve body for regulating the flow of fluid from the upper end of the valve body chamber into the rotatable valve outlet chamber.
