BODY :
Three-Piece Sanitary design enables in-line maintenance of ball valve. Full flow body design minimizes line turbulence and pressure drop through the valve.
END CONNECTION :
Clamp end connections are self-aligning for fast, easy takedown and reassembly without tools. Butt-weld end connections also available for dependable service in permanently installed pipelines.
BODY BOLTING :
Body bolting in 304 Stainless Steel permits easy assembly/disassembly.
BALL :
Precision machined from solid bar and polished to a mirror finish for bubble tight shut-off. Each ball is designed to have minimum torque and provides high life cycle.
STEM :
Stem and packing design eliminates possibility of stem becoming dislodged or blown out. Designed for installation of handle for manual operation or for direct mounting of pneumatic actuator that meets ISO 5211 specifications.
ANTISTATIC DEVICE :
To eliminate possibility of static electrical charges within the valve, two grounding connections are set in the stem to ensure electrical continuity for the entire ball valve.
HANDLE :
Ball valves fall under the general category of “rotary valves”: quarter-turn for open/close. Handle gives visual indication of flow with stop lug.
MOUNTING PAD :
A set of ISO 5211 mounting patterns are available to accommodate a range of pneumatic actuators. Machined flat surface ensures correct alignment of actuator to the stem top for minimum side loading during operation.
BALL SEAT :
Various seat materials and executions are available for different applications. Standard: Modified PTFE cavity-filler seat are intended to prevent the build up of product that may-when entrapped between the ball and body cavity-solidify or otherwise inhibit the smooth operation of the valve closure member on critical process applications. The valves used in steam service (24 hours continuously) should not utilize this seat arrangement.
STEM SEAT :
Two o-ring in Viton and two stem guide in Modified PTFE ensuring sealing integrity of the stem.
BODY SEAT :
Two o-ring in Viton for each end connections ensuring sealing integrity of the valve body.
Operating conditions :
- Minimum /max working pressure : Vacuum/ 6 bar g
- Minimum /max working temperature : 0°C to 150°C
The “TB” Series Flush Tank ball valve incorporates all the advantages of VSS. Available in different executions, may be fit at the tank bottom by welding plate or TK-Connection; for special applications on existing reactors, we also manufactures special adaptor plates in order to accommodate customer request. The special design of the welding plate, is an integral welded part of the tank surface and preventing stagnation of the media.
Benefits over conventional Flush Tank Valve :
- Valve mounts flush with the inside vessel wall, minimizing dead space.
- Angle stem allow actuator clearance on jacketed or insulated tanks.
- Higher CV with full bore, no pressure drop.
- Simple quarter-turn opening
