The high-temperature conditions here refer to the conditions when the medium temperatures are equal to or higher than the starting creep temperatures of the metallic materials. The creep temperature of carbon steel is about 400℃; chromium molybdenum alloy steel 450℃; austenitic iron-based high-temperature alloy steel 540℃; nickel-based high-temperature alloy 650℃; aluminum alloy 200℃; titanium all...

Installation requirements for cryogenic valves Due to the special structure of cryogenic valves, the installation of cryogenic valves also has special requirements. Because of the long-neck bonnet of the cryogenic valve, cryogenic gate valves must be installed vertically upward, with the stem direction within a 45-degree angle. And it should also be avoided as much as possible to install...

Bronze and brass are two of the most common materials used to produce valves. This preference comes because both metals are quite malleable. They both are artificially made from natural metallurgical elements: brass is made from copper and zinc, while another is made primarily from copper and tin. Each metal offers valves numerous and various advantages...

The ball of the floating ball valve is suspended. Under the pressure of the medium, the ball will move and press against the outlet side of the seal. The floating ball valve is only widely used for medium and low-pressure conditions because the pressure of the medium completely transfers the ball weight to the seal at the outlet. For the same reason, the design of the floating ball valve should fo...

6.For globe valve and choke valve When it comes to the strength test of the globe valve and the choke valve, the assembled valve is usually placed in the pressure test frame. Then, open the wedge, inject the medium to the specified value, finally check if the body and the bonnet of the valve‘sweat’or leak. Only the globe valve can be put in the sealing performance test. During the test, keep the s...

3, For Butterfly Valve The pneumatic test of the butterfly valve is the same as the test of the globe valve. The test medium should flow into the valve from the inputting end when the test begins. Open the disc and close another end. Check the packing and other sealing parts weather it leaks after the pressure has been pumped up to the set value. Then close the disc, open the other end, check the ...

In general, industrial valves don’t have to do a strength test in use. But repaired or corroded body and bonnet should do that. Common media used in valve pressure testing are water, oil, air, steam, nitrogen and so on. And valve pressure test methods of all kinds of industrial valves, including pneumatic, are as follows: 1.For ball valve The pneumatic test of the ball valve should be carried out ...

1. What is the difference between Cast iron and Cast steel? The difference between Cast iron and Cast steel is their carbon content. Cast Iron with carbon content greater than 2.06% is iron; steel with carbon content between 0.02% and 2.06% is steel. 2. What is carbon steel? How many categories does it fall into? An alloy of carbon and iron (when the carbon content is between 0.02% and 2.06%) is c...

1. What is the value of flow coefficient Kv? What is the flow coefficient Cv? Volumetric flow of water flowing between 5 ° C (40 ° F) and 40 ° C (104 ° F) through the valve to produce a pressure loss of 1 bar (14.7 psi), expressed in cubic meters per hour. Kv = Cv / 1.156 Flow coefficient Cv: It is the mass flow rate when water flows through the valve at 15.6 ° C (60 ° F) to produce 1psi, expresse...

1. How do the pressures of ultra high pressure valves, high pressure valves, medium pressure valves, and low pressure valves differ? Ultra high pressure valve, nominal pressure PN≥100MPa; high pressure valve, nominal pressure PN10.0MPa-80.0MPa; medium pressure valve, nominal pressure PN2.5MPa-PN6.4MPa; low pressure valve PN≤1.6MPa. 2. How to distinguish the calibers of extra large caliber valves, ...
