Product Overview
III. Structural Design & Technical Features
-
Butterfly Check Mechanism
- Disc rotates around a horizontal pin with streamlined flow path, pressure drop 30% lower than lift checks (DN100 loss ≤0.08MPa).
- Single/double-disc design: Double discs for large sizes disperse medium impact, preventing water hammer.
-
Metal Seal Optimization
- Disc-seat conical fit (3°-5° angle) self-tightens via medium pressure, specific pressure ≥20MPa.
- Seal surfaces precision-lapped by 5-axis grinder to flatness ≤0.01mm, red lead test contact rate ≥90%.
-
Extreme Condition Adaptability
- Cryogenic design: Long-neck pin prevents freezing at -196℃, disc reset time ≤0.5s.
- High-temperature: 316 SS solution-treated for 50% better oxidation resistance at 600℃ vs. 304.
IV. Manufacturing Processes & Quality Control
-
Precision Casting Flow
- Investment casting process, blank tolerance ≤±0.3mm, 100% ultrasonic testing (UT) for internal defects.
- SS parts solution-treated at 1050℃, grain size ≥Grade 5, passing ASTM A262 E-method intergranular corrosion test.
-
Surface Treatment Technology
- Seal surfaces plasma-overlaid with STL alloy (≥1.5mm thickness, HRC58-62), erosion life >8 years.
- Body electropolished (Ra≤0.4μm), passivated for salt spray test ≥1000 hours.
-
3D Quality Inspection
- Hydrostatic test: 1.5x pressure (30min hold), 1.1x sealing pressure—zero leakage.
- Spectral analysis: Element deviation ≤0.03% per heat, traceable to heat number.
- SIL certification: Meets IEC 61508, achieves SIL 2 functional safety.

V. Core Product Advantages
-
Multi-Medium Compatibility
- Petrochemical: 316 SS resists H₂S (≤200ppm) and organic acids for FCC unit rich gas lines.
- LNG: -196℃ cryogenic seal passes liquid nitrogen impact test (JB/T 12626).
- Pharmaceutical: 304 electropolished body (Ra≤0.8μm), FDA-compliant for pure water systems.
-
Full-Life Cost Advantage
- Wafer design reduces installation space by 30%, weight by 40% vs. flanged types, cutting transport costs.
- Replaceable seat design shortens on-site maintenance to 2 hours/operation, saving 60% in costs.
-
Global Certification Support
- Certified to CE-PED 2014/68/EU, API 594, WRAS (drinking water).
- Provides Material Test Reports (MTR), pressure test certificates, and third-party inspection.
Application
VI. Application Fields & Cases
- LNG receiving station: DN200 PN16 316 SS check valve in -162℃ LNG line, 1000 thermal cycles leak-free.
- Chemical plant acid water system: DN150 PN16 316L valve in pH 2-12 media, 5-year wear ≤0.05mm.
- Supercritical power plant: DN100 PN16 304 valve in 425℃ superheated steam, water hammer resistance per ISO 16780.
VII. Installation & Maintenance Guide
-
Installation Notes
- Install between flanges, align flow with body arrow, torque bolts diagonally in three steps (ASME PCC-1).
- DN≥200 valves require supports to avoid pipeline stress affecting sealing.
-
Routine Maintenance
- Check disc mobility quarterly; replace pin grease annually for high temp (molybdenum disulfide base, dropping point ≥300℃).
- Minor seal wear can be lapped in-situ without complete replacement.
