Specification
CE F316 Top-Entry Butt-Weld Trunnion Mounted Cryogenic Ball Valve
I. Product Overview
II. Key Attribute Parameters
- Size Range: 3/4″–6″ (DN20–DN150), covering small to medium pipelines for cryogenic and high-pressure applications.
- Pressure Rating: CL600 (11.0MPa) to CL1500 (26.0MPa), suited for high-pressure transmission and process systems.
- Temperature Range: -46°C to +80°C (DEVLON seats) / -29°C to +80°C (RPTFE seats), adapting to cryogenic liquids and industrial fluids.
- Material Configuration:
- Body: LF2 (ASTM A350) for low-temperature toughness.
- Trim: F316 (ASTM A182) for corrosion resistance to chlorides and acids.
- Seats: DEVLON (cryogenic resilience) or RPTFE (chemical resistance).
- End Connections: Butt-weld (ASME B16.25) for high-integrity pipeline bonding.
- Certifications: CE, validating compliance with EU pressure equipment standards.
III. Structural Features
- Top-Entry Design: Allows internal component access without pipeline disassembly, cutting maintenance downtime by 50% in critical systems.
- Trunnion-Mounted Ball: Supported by F316 trunnions to distribute pressure, preventing seat wear and ensuring stable sealing under CL1500 conditions.
- Cryogenic Sealing: DEVLON seats maintain elasticity at -46°C; RPTFE achieves ANSI/FCI Class VI leakage for toxic media.
- Anti-Blowout Stem: Integral design with retention shoulder enhances safety in high-pressure cryogenic services.
Product Overview
IV. Manufacturing Processes
- Material Validation: LF2 and F316 undergo ultrasonic testing and spectral analysis to confirm low-temperature and corrosion-resistant properties.
- Precision Machining: CNC-machined components (±0.05mm tolerance) ensure trunnion alignment and ball-seat contact.
- Seat Bonding: DEVLON/RPTFE seats are lapped to the ball for uniform sealing, with high-strength adhesive securing them to the body.
- Testing: Hydrostatic (1.5×rated pressure), cryogenic immersion (-46°C), and helium leak tests validate performance.
Valve Details
V. Product Advantages
- In-Line Maintenance: Reduces shutdowns in continuous processes like LNG terminals.
- High-Pressure Stability: Trunnion design prevents seat extrusion under CL1500, ensuring reliability in oil & gas transmission.
- Corrosion Resistance: F316 trim withstands harsh media, extending service life to 20+ years.
- Cryogenic Reliability: DEVLON seats handle extreme cold without leakage, critical for liquid nitrogen/oxygen systems.
Application
VI. Application Fields
- LNG Infrastructure: Controls LNG transfer and storage, withstanding -46°C temperatures.
- Petrochemicals: Regulates hydrocarbons in high-pressure reactors, leveraging F316’s corrosion resistance.
- Industrial Gases: Manages liquid nitrogen/argon in production, ensuring safe, leak-free operation.
