Product Overview
TIANYU Flange Floating Ball Valve: High-Reliability Solution for Industrial Fluid Control
I. Technical Overview
II. Core Product Features
(A) Floating Ball Sealing Design
- Bidirectional Self-Sealing Mechanism: The ball moves toward the outlet seat under medium pressure for dynamic sealing, with leakage ≤1×10⁻¹⁰m³/s (API 598 Class IV), ideal for flammable media;
- Low Flow Resistance: Full-bore design with resistance coefficient ≤0.8, reducing pressure loss by 40% vs. globe valves, saving ~15,000kWh annual pumping energy;
- Self-Cleaning Structure: Polished ball surface (Ra≤0.8μm) minimizes medium deposition, suitable for fluids with trace particles.
(B) High-Strength Material System
Component | Material | Performance Advantages |
---|---|---|
Body (WCB) | Cast steel (A216-WCB) | Tensile ≥485MPa, suitable for -29℃~425℃ |
Body (CF8) | Stainless steel (304) | Chloride corrosion resistance, -196℃~800℃ adaptability |
Seat | PTFE+carbon fiber/metal hard seal | PTFE: ≤260℃; metal seat (Inconel): ≤550℃, 50% improved creep resistance |
Stem | 2Cr13 stainless steel | Blowout-proof (ASME B16.34), hardness HRC30-35 |
(C) Multi-Scenario Adaptability
- Wide Temperature Range: Full coverage from -196℃ (liquid nitrogen) to 550℃ (superheated steam) via material combinations; cryogenic types require deep cold treatment (impact energy ≥27J at -196℃);
- Strong Pressure Adaptability: PN16~PN100 full range, high-pressure (PN100) passes 15.0MPa strength test leak-free;
- Flexible Drives: Manual torque ≤80N·m (DN100), electric actuator response ≤15s, pneumatic actuator supports 5s quick shut-off.
III. Key Technical Attributes
Parameter Category | Specifications | Expansion Options |
---|---|---|
Size Range | DN15~DN200 (1/2″~8″) | Custom DN250~DN600 (negotiable) |
Pressure Rating | PN16, PN25, PN40, PN64, PN100 | American Standard Class 150~Class 2500 (optional) |
Connection Type | Flange (GB/T 9113, ANSI B16.5) | Welded, threaded (NPT/BSP), wafer-type customization |
Applicable Media | Water, steam, oil, natural gas, weak acid/alkali | Sulfur-resistant (NACE MR0175) customization |
Compliance Standards | GB/T 12237, ISO 9001:2015 | API 6D, CE, SIL2 certification (optional) |
IV. Manufacturing Processes & QC
(A) Precision Manufacturing
- Body Forming:
- WCB cast steel via resin sand casting, UT-tested for defects, annealed to relieve stress;
- CF8 stainless steel via centrifugal casting, surface roughness Ra≤12.5μm, burr-free flow path.
- Ball Machining:
- 5-axis CNC grinding for ball roundness error ≤0.003mm, fit gap with seat ≤0.01mm;
- Metal seat overlaid with Inconel alloy, aged at high temperature to HRC60-65.
- Assembly & Testing:
- 1.5x nominal pressure hydrostatic test (30-min hold), 1.1x air pressure seal test (helium detection leakage ≤5×10⁻⁹Pa·m³/s);
- Sampled for 100,000 cycles with ≥95% sealing retention (industry: 50,000 cycles).
(B) Quality Certification
- Material Traceability: Batch numbers for key components traceable to heat number and chemical reports (PMI testing);
- Third-Party Inspection: Supports SGS, BV certification for material, pressure, and sealing;
- System Certification: ISO 9001, CE certified, high-pressure models comply with API 6D.
Application
V. Application Scenarios
- Petrochemical: On/off for atmospheric tower in refineries, CF8 lasts >10 years in 200℃ gasoline;
- Power Energy: Steam pipeline (3.8MPa/450℃) flow control, metal hard seal ensures zero leakage;
- LNG: -162℃ cryogenic pipeline on/off, WCB with deep cold treatment resists low-temperature embrittlement;
- Building Water Supply: PN16 fire protection pipelines in high-rises, easy manual maintenance.
VI. TIANYU Customization Advantages
- In-Depth Technical Customization: Non-standard pressure (e.g., PN250), special temperatures (-196℃~650℃), explosion-proof drives (Ex d IIC T6), and non-standard flanges (DIN/GOST), with 3D modeling and fluid simulation;
- Rapid Delivery: 7-day standard lead time (≤5,000 units), 3-day prototyping for small batches (MOQ 50), 24-hour expedited channel for urgent orders;
- Global Service Network: 12-month warranty, 24/7 response from 3 major service centers (APAC/Europe/NA), 48-hour airfreight for spares, with installation training and digital manuals.
