- Key Design Features
- Trunnion mounted ball – Ball is supported by upper and lower stem bearings; line pressure forces are absorbed by the trunnion bearings, ensuring low operating torque and stable sealing performance, especially for large bore and high pressure applications.
- 3-piece side entry body – Bolted 3-piece construction allows inline maintenance without removing the valve from the pipeline.
- Double block & bleed (DBB) – Upstream and downstream independent seat sealing provides bi-directional shut-off with zero leakage; installation is non-directional.
- Spring-energized seats – Pre-loaded springs maintain seat-to-ball contact even at low pressure, ensuring reliable sealing.
- Automatic cavity pressure relief – When the valve is in the fully open or fully closed position, excess pressure trapped in the body cavity can be relieved by seat retraction, protecting the valve.
- Fire safe design (optional) – If the non-metallic seat is softened or destroyed by fire, the metal sealing surface of the seat support ring contacts the ball to provide secondary metal-to-metal sealing, compliant with API 607 or API 6FA. (API 607 6th Edition now covers the scope formerly addressed by API 6FA.)
- Blow-out proof stem – Stem is designed with anti-blowout retention, ensuring it cannot be accidentally ejected under pressure.
- Anti-static device – A spring-loaded anti-static device provides electrical continuity between the ball, stem, and body, preventing static charge accumulation.
- Emergency sealant injection – Sealant injection fittings are provided on the stem and seat areas; sealant can be injected to temporarily stop leakage in an emergency.
- Full bore design – The valve bore matches the pipeline internal diameter, allowing pipeline pigging with minimal flow resistance.
- Actuation Options
Actuation Type | Remarks |
Manual gear operator | Standard configuration, with position indicator and mechanical stop |
Electric actuator | On-off or modulating (4-20mA); direct mounting on ISO 5211 top flange |
Pneumatic actuator | Double-acting or spring-return; with solenoid valve and limit switches |
Hydraulic / Gas-over-oil actuator | For emergency shut-down on long-distance pipelines |
