TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
PRODUCT: Top Entry Floating Ball Valve
MODEL / REFERENCE: DN25-PN25-SW
TYPE: One-Piece Body, Full Port, Side-Entry (Top Entry Maintenance)
1.0 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION & APPLICATION
A robust, single-piece body ball valve designed for superior structural integrity in demanding applications. Its unique Top Entry design allows for all internal components (ball, seats, stem) to be serviced or replaced in-line through the top-mounted bonnet, without the need to remove the valve from the pipeline. This eliminates downtime associated with pipe cutting and realignment. Featuring Socket Weld (SW) ends, it ensures a permanent, leak-proof connection ideal for high-vibration or critical services. Commonly used in chemical processing, oil & gas production, LNG, and high-pressure utility systems where reliability and in-line maintenance are key.

6.0 KEY DESIGN FEATURES
- Top Entry Design: Enables all internal maintenance in-line, significantly reducing downtime and maintenance costs. The one-piece body offers superior structural strength and minimizes potential leak paths compared to multi-piece designs.
- Socket Weld Ends: Provide a robust, permanent, and high-integrity connection suitable for high-pressure and high-vibration services.
- Bi-Directional Sealing: Spring-loaded seats often provide reliable sealing in both flow directions.
- Blow-Out Proof, Anti-Static Stem: Standard safety features for hazardous services.
- ISO 5211 Mounting Pad: Facilitates easy and direct mounting of pneumatic/electric actuators.
7.0 TESTING & INSPECTION
- Shell Pressure Test: Per API 598 / ISO 5208 at 1.5 x PN (38 bar).
- Prueba de fugas del asiento: Per API 598 at 1.1 x PN (27.5 bar) with air or water.
- High-Pressure Gas Test (Optional): For critical service verification.
- Material Verification: PMI (Positive Material Identification) on critical components upon request.
- Documentation: Certificate of Compliance (COC) with test records. Mill Test Certificates (MTC 3.1) available.
8.0 INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE NOTES
- Weld Procedure: The valve MUST be in the fully open position during socket welding to prevent heat damage to internal seals.
- Follow proper socket weld preparation and technique as per ASME B31.3.
- For maintenance, isolate and depressurize the valve. Loosening the bonnet bolts allows access to all internals from above.
