A-7 GENERAL PRODUCT FEATURES
Gate valves are primarily designed for on-off services when a straight-line flow of fluid and minimum
restriction is desired. The closure member of gate valves either stops or allows flow through the valve
and acts somewhat like the opening or closing of a gate and is called, appropriately, the gate valve.

piece, solid gate which consistently delivers best-in-class sealing stream and therefore protected from the erosive action of the flow.

The trunnion ball valve is a form of quarter-turn valve which uses a hollow, perforated and fixed/
supported ball to control flow through it. A trunnion mounted valve means that the ball is constrained

by bearings and is only allowed to rotate, the majority of the hydraulic load is supported by the System constraints,
resulting in low bearing pressure and no shaft fatigue. The line pressure drives the upstream seat against the
stationary ball so that the line pressure forces the upstream seat onto the ball causing it to seal. The mechanical
anchoring of the ball absorbs the thrust from the line pressure, preventing excess friction between the ball and seats,
so even at full rated working pressure operating torque remains low. This is particularly advantageous when the
ball valve is actuated because it reduces the size of the actuator and hence the overall costs of the valve actuation
package. Advantages of trunnion ball design is the lower operating torque, ease of operation, minimized seat
wear (Stem/ball isolation prevents side loading and wear of downstream seats improving performance and service
life), superior sealing performance at both high and low pressure (a separate spring mechanism and upstream
line pressure is used as the sealing against the stationary ball for low pressure and high pressure applications).
The trunnion is available for all sizes and for all pressure classes but they are not suitable for throttling purposes.
SIDE ENTRY TRUNNION BALL VALVES
SECTION C
Side entry ball valves are valves where the ball is assembled sealing, provides bubble-tight shut-off and low operating
from the side part. The body construction comes in 2 or torques, even at extremely high shut-off pressure. Side entry

trunnion mounted balls and unique spring-loaded upstream should be the default choice for general service.
CHECK VALVES

Check valves, are used to prevent back flow in the line. The pressure of the fluid passing through
a system opens the valve, while any reversal of flow will close the valve.

SWING CHECK VALVES
The swing check valve functions by allowing flow forces is stopped, to prevent backflow.These valves produce the

CONFIDENCE IN STEEL FORGING
WHY FORGINGS?
Forging offers uniformity of composition and structure. Forging results in metallurgical
recrystalisation and grain refinement as a result of the thermal cycle and deformation process.
This strengthens the resulting steel product particularly in terms of impact and shear strength.
Forged steel is generally stronger and more reliable than castings and plate steel due to the fact
that the grain flows of the steel are altered, conforming to the shape of the part.
CHALLENGING MATERIALS
FOR THE MOST CRITICAL
APPLICATIONS
Forging material has increased strength
under maximum rated operation
pressure compared with cast. Other
forging properties include greater
impact resistance, resistance to
fatigue cracking, particularly
when cycling at either high or
cryogenic temperature.

CRA WELD OVERLAY
Cladding is defined as the act or process of bonding one metal to another, usually to protect the inner metal from corrosion. The main reason for utilizing APPLICABLE ON
this process on valves is to allow for a less expensive base material to have the corrosion properties of a much more expensive material at the surface.
The benefits are that the wetted surfaces have the corrosion resistance of the clad material with an overall cost closer to that of the base material and
assuring a better performance than solid exotic materials due to better resistance to deformation of base (carbon steel) material. Weld cladding is FULL RANGE
today a very efficient & cost effective solution for the surface treatment of valves used in highly corrosive & erosive metal loss environment. BFE provide fully project
