Navy Adds $29.2 Million To Newport News Award The Naval Sea Systems Com- mand has announced the award of a $29.2 million increase in a Navy contract to Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Com- pany, Newport News, Va. The contract involved covers the over- haul of the nuclear-powered at- tack submarine Lapon, SSN-661. With Norriseal, you pay for corrosion protection only where there's corrosion Norriseal's exclusive dry back design resists corrosion, gives positive shut-off, and reduces costs With Norriseal's M-series angle-disc butterfly valves, only the field replaceable cartridge seat, the disc, and shafts are made from exotic alloys that drive other valve prices up. The valve body is made from less expensive materials to keep costs down. The body is fully isolated from corrosive or abrasive flow media by double O-ring seals around the shafts and cartridge seat. This exclusive Norriseal design feature reduces initial costs, maintenance expenses, and downtime. You replace wetted parts, not the whole valve. And you do it quickly in the field with a few simple hand tools. Like all Norriseal butterfly valves, M-series valves utilize an angle-disc. As a result, pressure drop decreases and, size for size, flow efficiency increases. To provide positive shut-off, an elastomer O-ring locks into a groove around the valve disc. Because of the unique groove design, flow stream pressure energizes the elas- tomer O-ring ... forces it to seal bubble tight against the metal seat. The higher the pressure, the tighter the seal.
