The blow-out proof stem is one of basic design features of ball valve. Ball valve stem is inserted from the valve body inside with integral T-type shoulder to provide blow-out proof effectively. It is internally inserted as a function of backseat to assure stem sealing safety. To describe it in details, the stem is sealed by o-rings & packing rings, and held in position by the stem housing whi...

Anti-static device is another basic and mandatory design for ball valve. During the operation of valve, the constant friction between ball and soft seat will generate static electricity. The spark caused by static electricity may ignite the inflammable fluid inside the valve and cause a potential fire hazard. To get rid of the hidden danger, an anti-static device is invented for ball valve. Like t...

If the medium remained in the cavity after the cryogenic gate valve is closed, the residue will gradually absorb the heat in the air and re-gasify. After the gasification, it will expand violently up to 600 times and generate extremely high pressure on the valve, which is called 'abnormal boost'. When the unusual occurrence happens, the wedge will be pressed firmly onto the seat and can’t be opene...

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...

There are four common types of plug valves, each of which has specific characteristics and advantages. Lubricated plug valve The lubrication plug valve uses lubricant to reduce frictions and make each port tightly sealed. Lubricants are basicly base oils that increase the viscosity of moving parts, such as amorphous or fumed silica, which are injected between the valve plug surface and the valve b...

The V-type ball valve is a single-seat ball valve with a metal seat. The adjustment performance is the best in the ball valves, whose flow characteristics are equal percentages, and the adjustable ratio is up to 100:1. It has a shearing action between the V-shaped slit and the metal seat, and is especially suitable for media containing fibers, tiny solid particles, and slurry. During the...
