Details

Selecting the appropriate valve for any given project can be a challenge, but finding the right fluid handling solution for high temperature, high pressure, and critical fluid applications is essential for safety. Choosing the best valve for direct assembly on vessels or reactors often requires extensive knowledge of the specific operating process in relation to the filling and discharging effects of the valve. For this reason, valves used for critical, hazardous, and explosive processes require extreme safety precautions. Standard leakage tests may supply insufficient results for such applications. Special ball and seat arrangements help minimize “mud spaces” or break off “product bridges”. Furthermore, hard faced metal seats also protect against abrasive and slurry services.
