Product Overview
III. Design Features & Advantages
-
Flat Gate Structure
- Full-bore design minimizes flow resistance (Cv value up to 30% higher than conventional gate valves)
- Parallel seat design ensures bidirectional sealing with zero leakage
- Anti-friction graphite coating reduces operating torque by 25%
-
Robust Sealing System
- Metal-to-metal sealing with STL alloy overlay on seats (hardness ≥HRC45)
- Secondary soft seal (NBR/PTFE) provides redundant sealing under low pressure
- Stem sealing with V-ring packing, tested to 10,000 cycles without leakage
-
Reliable Stem Design
- Non-rising stem with trapezoidal thread (ACME thread form)
- Thrust bearing reduces friction during operation
- Anti-blowout stem design ensures safety under high pressure
IV. Manufacturing Process & Quality Control
-
Precision Casting
- Investment casting for complex components with dimensional accuracy ≤±0.5mm
- Ultrasonic testing (UT) and magnetic particle inspection (MPI) for defect detection
- Heat treatment (normalizing/tempering) to enhance material properties
-
Advanced Machining
- CNC machining centers ensure surface roughness Ra≤3.2μm
- Seat sealing surface ground to flatness ≤0.02mm
- Stem thread pitch accuracy ≤±0.01mm
-
Stringent Testing
- Hydrostatic test: 1.5x working pressure for shell, 1.1x for sealing (30-minute hold time)
- Gas tightness test with nitrogen at 0.6MPa
- Low-temperature test (-46°C) for cryogenic applications
