Technical Data Sheet
Product: Bellows Seal Gate Valve
Model / Size: 3/4″ – 800LB – SW
- Product Description
This valve adopts a bellows seal design, which fundamentally eliminates stem packing leakage commonly found in conventional gate valves. The bellows assembly, combined with the stem, forms a static seal. An additional packing box serves as a secondary backup seal, achieving a “zero leakage” stem sealing performance. It is suitable for severe service conditions including high temperature, high pressure, high vacuum, and toxic, flammable, or corrosive media.

- Testing & Inspection
- Shell Strength Test: 1.5 times rated pressure, no leakage.
- High-Pressure Seat Test: 1.1 times rated pressure.
- Low-Pressure Pneumatic Test: 0.6 MPa compressed air.
- Bellows Leak Test: Helium mass spectrometry, leakage rate < 1×10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s (or meeting Class V sealing requirement).
- Operational Test: Valve cycled fully open/close under rated differential pressure.
- Features & Benefits
- Zero Leakage Assurance: The bellows isolates the stem from the atmosphere, eliminating external stem leakage – ideal for stringent environmental applications.
- Long Service Life: High-cycle-life bellows design ensures reliability under frequent operation.
- Low Maintenance: Dual stem sealing (bellows + packing) provides a secondary seal in the event of bellows failure, ensuring system safety.
- High Temperature & Pressure Capability: Class 800 rating with socket weld ends is suitable for high-pressure steam and thermal oil systems.
Notes:
- Dimensions and weights are typical values based on API 602; actual values may vary slightly depending on manufacturer design (e.g., handwheel size, bonnet height).
- For NACE MR0175 (sour service) compliance, please specify when ordering.
- During installation, follow the approved Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) for socket weld connections to avoid welding stress that could affect bellows life.
