Baker SPD MODEL F DRILL PIPE FLOAT VALVES
BAKER SPD NOW OFFERS TWO NEW DRILL PIPE FLOAT VALVE CONFIGURATIONS
The Model FA offers all the standard features of the Model F Float Valve with the added feature of a port which
allows a fluid path through the center of the valve. This feature allows for an automatic partial filling of the drill
pipe during run in. This valve is used when monitoring the bit head for gas pressure and/or gas pockets, allowing
measurement of differential pressure when required. The Model FA is available in all sizes.
The Model FI also offers all the standard features of the Model F Float Valve with the added feature of an integral
baffle plate at the top of the float valve. For operations where a baffle plate is always used for instrumentation
or fluid control the integral baffle plate configuration offers and economical option. The Model FI is only available
in sizes 4R and 5F-6R.

MODEL GC AUTOMATIC FILL
FLAPPER VALVE
10 Product Family No. H48019
The Model GC Automatic Fill Flapper Valve uses a low
carbon steel “automatic fill” key assembly that allows the
1 pipe to fill from the bottom, reducing run in time by elimi-
nating the need to fill the string from the top. When run-
2 ning in the hole, the automatic fill feature eliminates the
3 “ram effect” preventing the downhole pressure surges that
4 can cause formation damage. The valve can be run in ei-
ther the closed position or the automatic fill position. The
5 fast acting flapper valve opens when the kelly is pulled out
of the hole reducing the possibility of pulling a wet string
6
9 along with the associated safety hazards. Mud spill-over
on the rig floor is also eliminated. These timesaving fea-
8
tures allow the Model GC to quickly pay for itself.

H2S/STEAM SERVICE VALVES Baker SPD
H2S SERVICE
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The H2S service valve is made of AISI 1018/1020 Steel. Cages are made of ASTM A-395 Ductile Iron, and
springs are made of UNS #N07750 (High Alloy). Elastomers provide protection up to 450°F. All elastomers are
made of Viton® which performs well where H2S and hydrocarbons are present.
MODEL F DRILL PIPE FLOAT VALVE
Product Family Nos. H48030 (Model F) and H48032 (Model FC)
STEAM SERVICE
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The Steam service valve is made of AISI 1018/1020 Steel. Cages are made of ASTM A-395 Ductile Iron, and
springs are made of UNS #N07750 (High Alloy). Elastomers provide protection up to 500°F. All elastomers are
made of EPDM which performs well in steam where hydrocarbons are not present.
MODEL F DRILL PIPE FLOAT VALVE
Product Family No. H48020
The Model F Drill Pipe Float Valve for steam service provides instantaneous shut-off against high or low pres-
sure, assuring control of the fluid flow through the drillstring at all times during the drilling operation - whether
the kelly is in place or not.
MODEL G DRILL PIPE FLOAT VALVE
Product Family Nos. H48021 (Model G) and H48023 (Models GB and GBA)
The Model G Drill Pipe Float Valve for steam service provides instantaneous shut-off against either liquid or gas
preventing entry of cuttings into the drillpipe when circulating is discontinued.
FLOAT VALVE INSTALLATION
Baker SPD Drill Pipe Float Valves are easily installed by simply lubricating the side seals and sliding them into
the cavity in the float sub or drilled-out drill collar. Installed in the float sub, the valve may be positioned between
tool joints or by inverting the float sub between the bit and drill collar. Care must be taken in positioning the float
valve in the drillstring. If it is placed too far from the top of the hole and the pipe is not filled while running in,
hydrostatic pressure can cause damage to the drillpipe or the float valve. If the pipe is filled while running in, the
float valve can be placed just above the bit.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR MODEL GB DRILL PIPE FLOAT VALVE
Install the Model GB Drill Pipe Float Valve near the top of the drillstring where escaping air is channeled under
the flapper valve, forcing it closed and preventing loss of pressure.
